With All Disrespect to TimeOut and Others, Here is Chris Gage's Rundown on Next Week's Television Pickings
Monday
Lockhart Steele's Champagne Brunch
www.lockhartsteele.com
Our fearless Lock subscribes to
Dodgeball.com Circles and receives a free 1998-circa sticker which he dissects in painful detail, discussing how the bright orange makes his skin look ashen and the depiction of the boy getting whacked in the head by a ball reminds him of CCD, circa 1981 when the pastor beamed him from the pulpit 20 yards away for impersonating a Jew and trying to start the wave in those wooden bleachers churches have.
Tuesday
Choire Choire Choire!
www.choiresicha.com
A low-level, put-out Conde Nast slag spends too much time in a conference room during a "meeting" with 20 other skanks doing their nails and IMs
Gawker God Choire about how her boss took a dump. . .last February. . .after eating. . .the olive in her martini. Post gets linked to by Page 6,
Whatevs.org, and a "VH1 Best Week Ever" ex-producer who might know one of the girls in the conference room.
Wednesday
The Minor Fall, The Major Lift: The Paul Reubens Story
http://www.popfactor.com/tmftml
TMFTML bear-baits 13-year-olds in a Britney Spears AOL chat room. He cackles uncontrollably from the pen of a cubicle farm as he heckles the weakest fan and tosses off one-liners he cribbed from David Mamet films. (Spoiler alert: 13-year-old turns out to be TMFTML's niece, and Mamet sues with the veracity of a pregnant she-wolf who knows her copyright law.)
Thursday
Black Table's 10th Anniversary Show
http://www.blacktable.com
A small-time writer from Bloomington, Indiana tells six things you didn't know about the filming of "Breaking Away" the TV show. One: Jackie Earle Haley (AKA Moocher) cried over the death of his career two
years before it occurs in a duplex off La Brea. Two: You'll have to tune in.
Friday
The Gothamists
http://www.gothamist.com
On the forthcoming installment from this breaking-news blog, something happens once and two nobodies tell you about it even though you were there and saw it hours ago.
Rerun. Episode originally aired yesterday, and the day before that, and the day before that.
