The REAL Truth About The End of TheJay.com

Everything I said in my April Fool’s post, up until the end, was completely true. I don’t have the time anymore, I’ve lost interest in celebrity shenanigans, I have other projects I want to focus on, and I don’t want to not like things anymore.
But I will NOT be shutting down the website.
So technically, [...]

Grading the American Idol Season Eight Top 9 on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale

When a monstrously funded, intelligently engineered, brilliantly conceived production chooses to be so lazy as to make their Theme of the Week “Whatever is on your iPod Shuffle”, I have no choice but to answer their laziness with some of my own. Let’s make this tripe quick.
Randy is useless and ugly and has the [...]

Harper’s Globe: Episode 1 – “Fresh Start”

I’m gonna need you to get ahead and watch this video. IMMETES.
In continuing my recent “you might not know this about The Jay” Tour, I wanted to tell you that when I’m not online skewering celebrities and on my couch TiVo-blooping Idol flunkies, I have me a real world jobby job. And in [...]

Grading the American Idol Season Eight Top 11 on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale

American Idol has a huge Country fanbase. We know this because contestants like Kristy Lee Cook routinely make it to the Top 7.

Grading the American Idol Season Eight Top 13 on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale

Oh, TiVo Multi-Bloop, how I missed you so! On those long audition rounds when I yearned for your sweet mercy. In Hollywood Week whilst enduring the aural torture that was Bikini Girl. During the Top 36 when I kept fighting the urge to grab you and Triple Bloop the bejeesus out of [...]

American Idol Season Eight Wild Card Predictions

UPDATE: Nailed all of my predictions, and would have picked Matt, too, had I known they were going to a Top 13. That makes me 10 for 12 (or 13), with 4 of my 6 Early Favorites still in the race. I am an American Idol predicting machine! Check back next week [...]

12 Word Summaries of the American Idol Season Eight Group 3 – Top 12

I am bored of this Top 36 nonsense. Tonight especially, was worthless and utterly predictable. Lil Rounds has been pimped as the BBV (Big Black Voice) for the season, you KNEW Scott MacIntyre was getting a pass, and whomever else gets through is merely cannon fodder, so who gives a Seacrest? I [...]

12 Word Summaries of the American Idol Season Eight Group 2 – Top 12

I’m holding off on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale until the Top 12, when I can actually tell this bus full of kids apart. For now, we’re going with quick summaries.
A quick word about the judges… were they all drunk? Or just really tired (in general or of each other, doesn’t matter)? Way too [...]

Don Draper Knows My Every Thought

Just when I thought Twitter was a useless social networking site, bogged down by an arbitrary word count, crippling look and feel limitations, and massive redundancy in the face of the FAR more interesting and informative Facebook Status Updates, I get this notice in my Inbox:

Would I like to follow Jon Hamm?
Uhhhh? YA!
