Wine Library TV is changing the wine world!

Gary Vaynerchuk, host of Wine Library TV will be on NBC tonight at 12:25AM ET on Late Night with Conan O’Brien. Be sure to tune in and check it out, or DVR it.

From the about page of WLTV:

Our movement seeks to break down the barriers, stereotypes, and misperceptions that otherwise prevent people from exploring and enjoying the exciting and rewarding world of wine...

In each episode, Gary tastes wines on the fly-it is unrehearsed, unscripted, and off-the-cuff. As Gary likes to say, he shoots from the hip, but always from the heart. Episodes have focused on a wide variety of topics, including decanting, how to train your palate, the impact oak aging and barrel fermenting have on wine (Beware of the Oak Monster!), and comparisons of wines made from the same grapes grown in different regions.

Wine Library TV which airs 5 days a week is currently on it’s 285th episode, and evidently Conan was Wine Library TV with Gary yesterday, via Satellite! Check it out!

Freudian Slips

Freudian slip
(n.) A verbal mistake that is thought to reveal an unconscious belief, thought, or emotion.

Here are a few Freudian slips, and one weather man just venting frustration, all caught on TV and now available on YouTube for our viewing pleasure. Here are all 4 videos:

#1 - Watch out for that coastal flooding, it can cause some damage!

#2 - New Military helicopter?

#4 - Finally, sometimes we try to say a word, and it just stumble all over ourselves. It’s frustrating, and often you just want to vent that frustration out!

Ruining “The Thundercats”

Some things are much better left alone.

WB animation is remaking the Thundercats as an animated TV series. The animation style is whimsical, Americanized-anime, along the lines of Teen Titans. The setting is modern-day Earth, in a major city (possibly LA) The Thundercats are all teenagers. Their leader is Snarf (!) who is now a mystic with a “third” eye. Each of the Thundercats has a weapon with an “Eye of Thunderra” and transformative powers (not just Lion-O) When they aren’t fighting evil, the Thundercats play together as a rock band. That’s not a typo, or a joke. They are rockin’ cats in their present form. Mum-Ra now has wings.

When I first found out about “The Thundercats” coming back I was excited, not knowing that they are going to “reinvent” the series. Is this really necessary? Are we completely out of new ideas? And since almost everything has changed about the show, can they even call the show “The Thundercats”?

Entourage mini-series coming to Cingular

HBO and Cingular Wireless have teamed up to bring an “Entourage” mini-series to Cingular wireless customers. The mini-series which will be available in 4-minute episodes will follow a single story line based on “Entourage” character Johnny Drama.

Cingular said that it would also show full-length episodes of the the first season of “Entourage”, as well as other older HBO shows such as “Sex and The City” and “Curb your Enthusiasm.”

Unfortunately, to watch the “Entourage” mini-series or any other HBO content will be a little pricey. Cingular customers must sign up for Cingular’s monthly media plan, as well as HBO’s premium service to be able to enjoy this content. The media plan runs at $14.99 per month, and add on another $4.99 per month to get HBO’s content.

Cingular Wireless, venture of AT&T and BellSouth Corp, is currently the #1 cell phone service provider in the United States.

HBO’s 2-page ad in Variety: “Aquaman” biggest box office splash in history

On Monday morning, a 2-page ad placed by HBO in Variety, the Hollywood trade publication, declared that the new James Cameron film “Aquaman,” starring Vincent Chase, was the “biggest box office splash in history,” bringing in an astounding $116 million in its opening 3-day weekend.

The ad did not mention that this of course took place on the HBO show “Entourage,” which follows the life of an upcoming movie star “Vincent Chase”, played by Adrian Grenier.

James Cameron said that he has received phone calls from acquaintances congratulating him and asking about the film “Aquaman”, not knowing that it does not exist.
