Famosos I have spotted recently

SPOTTED: Tim Heidecker & Eric Wareheim
The brains, and brawn, behind Adult Swim's Tom Goes To the Mayor.

Where: David Byrne/Arcade Fire concert at the Hollywood Bowl.

Notable Notes: Eric Wareheim is HUGE (tall). They were with one very cute girl with short black pigtails. I wonder how often these guys hang out. They seemed friendly and funny, but a discerning eye could see through all the bullshit, deep into Tim Heidecker's eyes. He has a plan to overthrow Eric and obtain full control of the cartoon. You heard it here first! That's called a scoop!



SPOTTED: Tommy Lee
The dick in the Pamela sex tape and Motley Crue

Where: Just cruising up Fairfax in his convertible, man, swear! Totally! I felt cool because, as a slacker, I was just cruising as well.

Notable Notes: Plays the drums. I did not know this for the first five years I heard this guy's name.



SPOTTED: TV's House; Hugh Laurie
TV's House. Long loved British comedian and actor.

Where: The Apple Store in The Grove

Notable Notes: I saw way too much of this guy during the last season of 24, even with Tivo. They advertised his show House like it was a real doctor with a real cure for cancer instead of just another shitty doctor show. Hugh Laurie has a long history in comedy and children's entertainment. I thought he was really likable in Stuart Little, even when competing with the cutest thing imaginable, a mouse with Michael J. Fox's voice. I would have fully supported his jump to a popular television show or starring roles in films, but I can not forgive coming out with another doctor show, much less a rebel doctor with a heart of gold show. I have friends with long standing boycotts on doctor and lawyer shows. I guess they are ineffective so far. I really think the infestation of doctors/lawyers on television is something that a grassroots campaign could fix.

On the other hand, sitcoms are almost on the brink of death. If we got rid of doctor and lawyer shows, the dramas would all disappear as well, leaving only a barren wasteland of reality television. Speaking of which, I have to get some sleep. I head back into the "working" world tomorrow. I'll be employed as Mark Burnett's official food tester. Just kidding. Watch Survivor.
