Flüla introduces Halloween Rant

posted by Justin in blog, current tv, flüla, halloween rant July 12th, 2008

Remember way back in December when Current TV asked people to send in personalized introductions to their favorite pods, including our very own Halloween Rant?

Okay, so we kind of forgot about that, too…but then fate stepped in and led me to this video seven months later. I’ll let Flüla explain the rest:

Crystal Skull vid featured on UCBcomedy.com

posted by Jacob in Crystal Skull, Holiday Rant, UCB, crackle, internet, shorts, the number 24, the office, the onion, video will May 29th, 2008

So check this out: the wonderful people over at UCBcomedy.com have seen fit to feature our video Tremendosaur and the Pitch Meeting of the Crystal Skull on their front page.

UCBcomedy is a great website where you can watch lots of videos from the UCB Theatre and its performers, and we’re honored to be featured by them! Thanks, UCB!

On another note, now that I’ve seen the actual film, this interview seems fairly plausible.

Tremendosaur on Current TV’s New Year’s Eve Countdown

posted by Justin in Holiday Rant, current tv December 14th, 2007

Top71 Hi-ho, friends of Tremendosaur!

We’ve got some pretty exciting news to share: Current TV has chosen our Halloween Rant to be a part of their TOP 71 PODS OF 2007.

That means you can see our pretty little faces (not to mention yours truly, naked, holding a cat) on cable TV ranting about Halloween against the snowy backdrop of December.

Think of it as Tremendosaur’s nod to The Nightmare Before Christmas. Or just think of it as Current TV really digging our stuff.

But wait, there’s MORE! Current’s offering Tremendosaur fans like YOU the opportunity to send in an intro for the piece explaining why you like it, and then airing it on cable TV. Neat!

No need for fancy equipment - anything from a digital camera to a webcam’ll do the trick. Go HERE for more details.

Halloween Rant will start re-airing December 28th and continue to do so until we ring in 2008.

DO IT UP!

New Short: Halloweenies (on Current TV)

posted by Tremendosaur in Holiday Rant, current tv, internet, television October 28th, 2007

We’re excited to announce that we just launched a new sketch for Current about why we think Halloween is overrated. You can view it on the web or on their TV channels… if you even WATCH TV, that is.

Check it out if you like Halloween and / or want to see a naked Justin holding a black cat. And to think that cat is completely CG! It looks SO real!!

Current Lowdown featuring Tremendosaur

posted by Jacob in current tv, internet, television October 16th, 2007

heartbreakpod.jpgGet your DVRs ready, because Tremendosaur is coming to your TV this week.

We just did reviews of The Heartbreak Kid and The Darjeeling Limited for Current TV’s “Current Lowdown”. For those who don’t know, Current is a new cable channel that I’d sum up as being a cross between PBS and MTV. They just won an Emmy for Best Interactive Television Service, and some guy on their board of directors just won the Nobel Peace Prize. So yeah, they’re doing alright.

But enough about them, let’s talk about us!

Current’s programming is randomly generated, kind of like your iTunes shuffle, but you can see the next several hours of programming by clicking here. You’ll notice the next time “Current Lowdown: The Darjeeling Limited” is playing is 4:25pm, at which point I will be at the gym, watching myself on the elliptical with the personal TV set, and trying to get recognized.

Our reviews of both Darjeeling and The Heartbreak Kid will be airing on Current once or twice a day for the next two months, but if you want immediate satisfaction, watch them online using the links below:

Current Lowdown: The Darjeeling Limited

Current Lowdown: The Heartbreak Kid

We’re also working with Current on a top secret project that involves Tremendosaur and our favorite holiday. Can’t say anymore now, but stay tuned.
