Soon



This is just a quick update to let all you devoted fans know that I just finished principle photography on my latest (and greatest) project. Just a few FX shots and some sound issues to fix and it will be ready for public consumption. No promises on this one, but if Ty Doucheington can have a "special project every week," then so can I. What a douche. Just listen to his damn voice.

Dexter


So a few months ago, my uncle asked me if I had ever seen the show Dexter. I'd actually never even heard of it at the time, but his description was more than enough to pique my interest. So I endeavored to watch the series in its entirety, which necessitated the use of a great website called Sidereel.com (it has lots of TV shows and movies that you can watch for free - even old stuff that nobody should ever watch, but is too good to resist) because of the fact that I don't get Showtime. With the exception of the last episode, they had all of them (fortunately, I was able to download the season 2 finale), and I just finished today. I've got to say, this really is one of the best TV shows I've ever seen - the acting is all great, and the writing is superb. I highly recommend it - I would not, however, recommend watching it on ABC or whatever network has just started showing it. Not only will the cut out a lot of the violence (which is not gratuitous, it's just integral to the character), but most importantly, they will have to trim about 10 minutes from each episode. It might work out, but if you're so inclined, the first season just came out on DVD; that's how I would recommend watching it. It's definitely a dark show, but one that's certainly worth watching. I wanted to include a clip, but Dexter doesn't really lend itself well to bite-sized consumption, so here is a compilation of a great character from the show Frisky Dingo. Like it or not, Adult Swim has some quality stuff off and on, and this show is really quite funny. Enjoy.
