This is fucking amazing.

[WEEKEND OPEN BAR: The one-stop ramble-about-anything weekend post at OL. Comment on the topic at hand. Tell us how drunk you are. Describe a comic you bought. This is your chance to bring the party.]

Hullo there, chums!

It’s the weekend again, and as such we all need to take some time to enjoy ourselves. Pop open bottles of beer! Blast some tunes! Squeeze some ass! Sure, we all have obligations that need attendin’ – voyages to the supermarket, respect-payings at the in-laws’, survival-games at karate class you signed up for because the lady-sensei has an incredible rack and you’re hopin’ she’ll beat the ever-livin’ shit out of you! But you have to enjoy these days, too!

`Cause what’s the point of havin’ a life if you aren’t goin’ to enjoy livin’ it?

This weekend, I want us all to take the time to think about just how wonderfully foolish we’ve been. Hell, actin’ like an idiot from time to time is a symptom of the perception-granting disease known as human existence. And it’s an important one too, `cause it enables us to learn from our mistakes. Since we’re all guilty of being momentary schmohawks, we might as well call ourselves out on it.

At best, it’ll help us become more actualized human beings. At worst, we’ll get some laughs.

To gain entrance into this weekend’s OPEN BAR, you need to share an embarrassing story from your childhood.

Did you barge into the bathroom to find your Uncle Rojo disinfecting his nether-regions? Care to retell how you asked your mom’s barren friend why she didn’t have any children? What about the time that you told your older sister’s boyfriend that he was hunkier than Hulk Hogan?

Allow me to start the tab at this OPEN BAR.

This is one way to get me to give a fuck about J.J. Abrams again. Team the son of a bitch up with Alfonso Cuaron. Homeboy hasn’t done much in quite the minute, and now we’re getting Gravity and this? Sign me up.

Guillermo Del Toro is bringing his considerable talents to premium channel television, boyos! Motherfucker is developing a Twin Peaks styled jam for the powers that be at HBO. This can only be a good thing. Unless it sucks. Then it is a bad thing.

Pop culture convergence of enormous boner magnitude! Mike from Breaking Bad is going to be all up in Parks and Rec. We haven’t earned such a momentous mash-up, but we’ll take it.

Last week I covered TV cops.  This week we’ll hit the second part of the equation.  The Crooks.  These are the guys that break the law, yet in some odd way, we root for them.  We see stories from their point of view.  Sometimes they make decisions that we ourselves would make.  Its hard to demonize them when we can see a bit of ourselves in their characterizations.  So here we go.  My top TV criminals.

Hard to remember the days when Walter White wasn’t Full Vader, right? This excellent fan video chronicles Chemistry Kid Lucifer’s descent into madness, and helps recall the days when I actually rooted *for* the guy. Feels like eons ago. Spoilers ahead, ya fucking turkeys.

DC has been on their grind trying to get Wonder Woman onto some sort of fucking screen for a while. They axed the Joss Whedon pitch for a flick. Like true dumb asses. Then they filmed an asstacular TV pilot. Their latest approach is a series in the vein of Smallville. I suppose we’ll see.

Ahh September is upon us.  Fall is almost here.  Speaking about the Fall, cops ensure crooks take the fall for their crimes.  For example, I am guilty of the worst segue of all time.  Since you are witnessing it and not reporting it, you’re all my accompliceses.  If I were to go down for this, these are the fictional TV cops that I’d want to see slap the cuffs on me.
