Kelly Brook Has A TUMBLR... With BOOBS!!!

Kelly Brook is hot. That is easy enough to declare. The English beauty is slowly becoming more and more recognizable... and my money is on this fame coming due to her spectacular boobs. They are stupendous. These boobs led her to a Reebok endorsement deal, choice parts in quality films like Piranha 3D (lol), and even an appearance on Skins (a great British show...check it!). But her appearances are not nearly coming as often as I would like... especially when it comes to her boobs. How can she recognize & correct this discrepancy? How about starting a TUMBLR... one that features behind the scenes pics and LOTS OF BOOBIES??? Yup, that will work. You can check her TUMBLR out here, but after the jump I put up my favorites from the bunch. Go get 'em!!!

Throwback Thursday - 1/20/2010 - UK Skins + Cat Stevens & Lily Allen = Win!!!

I have told you guys how obsessed I have become over the UK version of the TV show 'Skins' in the past few weeks. I can not get enough of the show (I am just starting Season 3!) Seasons 1 & 2 revolve around the lives of Tony, Michelle, Cassie, Sid, Anwar, Maxxie, Chris, & Jal... they are the sickest group of teens you have ever seen. At the end of Season 1, there was one of the most amazing climaxes I have ever seen. It was amazing... and during the final scene, all of the sudden Cat Steven's classic song 'Wild World' came on. I won't talk any more about the scene because it would involve spoilers (and everyone should watch this show on Netflix Instant!!!) but since I watched the 'Wild World' segment I can not get the song out of my head. I love the version that the 'Skins' cast did, it ruins the end of Season 1... but it is a great arrangement. I always loved the song.... and now I love it even more since it is tied to my new favorite show. So here you go... enjoy Mr. Steven's classic one time:



Extra Tidbit: I always had a love for the Lily Allen song 'The Littlest Things', which kind of samples the cord progression and vocal arrangement of 'Wild World'. Since I'm on a total UK/British kick and can't get enough of the other side of the pond, here it is... enjoy:

Skins USA Vs. Skins UK: How Did MTV's Show Stack Up To The Original?

Skins - Original British Cast 

I have been eagerly anticipating the new MTV series 'Skins' for a few reasons. Here are a few notes on why I couldn't wait for it to start:

1. I love British TV shows, and this was to be a very true adaption of a hit British show.
2. British TV shows know how long they will be on before they ever start filming., so they know how long they have to tell a story arc. It is never cut short or made as it goes along based on ratings
3. Teenage shows always attract me... probably because I was a high school teacher and I am intrigued  by the always changing and spontaneous thought process of the teenage mind.
4. God, I wish I was 16 again... who doesn't? Great Times!!!!

'Skins' - U.S. Cast

There are other reasons why I liked the premise of the show as well. The British show was created by a father and son team (Bryan Elsley and Jaime Brittain) and featured writers who were under the age of 20 in order to get a proper prospective into the teen mind. The show also featured relatively unknown teenage actors and actresses that could be taken for real teens... no 25 year olds playing sophomores and already established actors making it hard to see them as someone new (like if they had Daniel Radicliff, everyone would only see Harry Potter).

These reasons lead me to begin watching the first season of 'Skins' on Netflix Instant. After watching MTV's 1st episode, boy am I glad I did. It's not that MTV did anything wrong... its quite the opposite. The MTV show is almost a mirror image of the British original. Instead of a gay male dancer named Maxxie, MTV has a lesbian cheerleader named Tea. Other than a few minor race & name changes, the cast is pretty much identical. Here is where you should make the decision to watch the British version... if its almost exactly the same, why not watch the original?

'Skins' - U.K. Cast

The British cast is also much easier to identify with.... Tony is the guy everyone wants to be and Michelle is his girl. Sid is his sad sack best friend that is Tony's complete antithesis... and you love him for it! Chris is fucking mental and has no parents around... Jal is the black girl who comes from a family with a famous musician father but is down to Earth and there for everyone. Cassie is the crazy nut, and Anwar is a Muslim with an all white group of nut job friends who make his religious life a living hell (Anwar is also Dev Patel of The Last Airbender and Slumdog Millionaire fame!). His best friend is the aforementioned Maxxie, who is gay and wants to be a professional dancer. Their personalities are so different, yet this crew is loyal and true to each other. Amazing... you can't help but love these degenerates.

L to R- Cassie, Chris, Michelle & Cassie, the full cast, Cassie

Sid and Chris are my absolute favorite characters, as I was like a cross between the both of them. I was a comic & movie geek, but also popular and full on craziness as a teen... a bit of both. Michelle, played by the lovely April Pearson, is a breath of fresh air and a hipster beauty. There are only 9 episodes in the first season, and 9 in the second as well. There were 5 seasons total, but the story shifts to another set of teens including Tony's younger sister Effy in Season 3. Yup... you read that right... they switched THE WHOLE CAST OF A WILDLY SUCCESSFUL SHOW BETWEEN SEASON 2 & 3 BECAUSE THAT'S THE WAY IT WAS DRAWN UP.... ratings did not cause them to force the issue and keep the teens past the believability of their own age. They just brought in a new crop... and continued to win!

On another note, season 1 ends with one of the best 10 minute segments I have ever watched in TV history. Ever. I put it up there with the best season-enders I have personally ever seen... and I have seen a lot of TV! I won't spoil it at all, but they answer all the questions and cliffhangers that hung over season 1 and it all ties up beautifully... yet, at the same time springs you towards season 2 with so much anticipation. In my humble opinion, after watching only the first 2 seasons of the British versions of 'Skins', I can honestly say it is the best teenage show I have ever watched. Better then anything I have ever seen that was like it, and better then those shows in every way. I know that's a bold statement, but I am hooked.

Now, the MTV show seems destined to follow the exact same path as the Brit show... but here is where I implore you to give up an afternoon and watch Season 1of the original show. You will love it... and thank me for telling you to do it. I will be watching the MTV show, and it looks promising... but those guys on the MTV version got some big shoes to fill!!! Now get your ass up and add 'Skins' to your Netflix Instant Que asap... and thank me later!

We Are Definitetly Getting A Charlie's Angels Reboot On ABC...

... but the cast has not been picked yet. 'Charlie's Angels' (the TV show, not those craptastic movies that made even the amazing Sam Rockwell seem incapable of acting) was filled with sex appeal and the girls who played the angels were super sex symbols (again, the TV show... the movie featured a mediocre Cameron Diaz & Drew Barrymore... oh, and a sexy as fuck Lucy Liu... 1 outta 3 ain't bad!). Now is your chance... who would you pick to be your new Charlie's Angels??? Anybody is eligible, especially since just about any movie star will do TV nowadays whether their career is hot or not. Make 3 picks, and one alternate in the comment section below... and you can provide a short reason for each. I am excited to see what you guys have to say!!!

I'll start it off... here are my picks:

1) Lizzy Caplan - God I love this wonderful creature... and I miss her since 'Party Down' ended. She is also the subject of one of the top 10 CCD posts of all time when we chose her as OHC of the day a while back. She is funny, gorgeous in the face, and has an amazing body... yup, a perfect fit for the Charlie's Angels team!

2) April Pearson - Most of you do not know this British beauty, but she was the star of the first two seasons of original 'Skins' show over on the other side of the pond, playing the role of Michelle. Not only is she amazingly gorgeous, but she has an infectious personality that causes you to identify with her character no matter what. It also helps that I am currently obsessed with the original 'Skins' series via Netflix and she has unreal tits.... but hey, that's just why I picked her...

3) Alison Lohman - I recently featured this gorgeous blonde in our "Proof There Is a God" series that gives thanks to the good lord for blessing us with stunning beauty... which the lovely Alison sure does possess. But truth be told I've loved her since she was a kid in 'Matchstick Men' and loved her even more in Sam Raimi's 'Drag Me To Hell'. She is a proven performer, wonderfully attractive, and a blonde... Farrah would be proud!!!

4) My Alternate: Emily Browning - You remember that little wise-ass girl from 'Lemony Snicket's: A Series of Unfortunate Events' with Jim Carrey? Well guess what... she grew up!!!! This hottie is about to become a breakout star due to her lead role in Zack Snyder's 'Sucker Punch' and she is looking very grown up in the trailer. She developed nicely... and would be a nice fit for the show.

OHC of the Day: Rachel Thevenard

Unless you live somewhere in the continental United States that does not get basic cable nor advertising of any kind, you have probably heard that MTV has a new show called Skins that will begin on January 17th. Well, to be honest, its not really a new show... more like just another successful British TV show that we will shamelessly jack and pass off as original programming. Be as it may, at least Skins has some hot looking chicks. Thats where Rachel comes in. Ms Thevenard will be playing Michelle Richardson, the popular girl who dates the bad boy in this fictional high school setting. She is also the one on the show I think is the cutest (although Camille Crescencia-Mills, who plays Daisy is also hot... but 17!!!) These kids are pretty fucking wild (at least in all the promos they are), and this gorgeous redhead is no exception. Just take a look at some of these pics... ming!!!Unfortunately there is not much more information on Rachel out there since MTV decided to use the same approach as the British version of the show an cast unknown actors in the roles of the students. This is the first major performance for the Canadian beauty, and MTV is really betting some big wood on this show... so, don't be suprised when Rachel is popping up all over the place. Just remember where you saw her featured first. OHC today, MTV star tomorrow. You gotta start somewhere, right.
