(((s.o.v.))) to be featured in Friday Night Lights

The title kind of says it all. We are going to have a song featured in the high-school football drama, Friday Night Lights. This is actually one of our favorite shows and we highly recommend it for anybody that enjoys good television. The show airs on NBC, however, this year the season is airing in its entirety on DirecTV before being played on basic cable sometime in February of 2009. Kyle Chandler gives an Emmy worthy performance as Coach Eric Taylor. Check out this clip of the show below and be sure to give this show a chance.

Below is a promo for the new season.



I mean, C'MON!!!!

Ricky Gervais in Los Angeles This Weekend!!!

Ricky Gervais will be performing stand-up this Friday and Saturday night (8/11 & 8/12) at Hollywood's Kodak Theater! Ricky is the brains behind one of the greatest sitcoms of all time, "The Office".

The British version of this series ends with David Brent (Gervais' character) being laid-off and receiving a rather large severance package.... The following clip is from the reunion special in which we discover what David Brent spent his severance money on. "Brilliant!"



For those who are not familiar, Ricky was at one point an aspiring new wave rocker. Check out this clip from his 80's "rock" group, Seona Dancing!!
