David Cross stars with Will Arnett & Spike Jonze in UK Pilot

Doing another sitcom is a weird thing to do when “the sitcom framework really [feels] like a drag on [your] energy and sensibility.” But it’s cool. I don’t mind.

American Todd Margaret (David Cross) bluffs his way into an apparently great job opportunity, heading up the sales team in his employer’s London office. All he has to do is sell several thousand energy drinks before his boss visits him in a week. Simple. Apart from the fact that he knows nothing about British culture and nothing about sales. This is further complicated when he lies continuously to cover his ignorance and spectacularly fails to impress Alice the first beautiful girl he meets. Dave his British co-worker, soon takes full advantage of Todd’s situation and chaos ensues.

DUPES

DUPE #1: Exiled Cuban Blogger Dupes Castro’s Son. I love this story. I now want to add Claudia Cartagena to the stable of imaginary characters (Mabbie & my protégé, Le Prince) that I hang out with.

DUPE #2: Bolivian TV News Airs LOST scene as Flight 447’s last moment. Silly TV people. Don’t you know that LOST Island (right next to Torture Island) is in the Pacific Ocean and *not* the Atlantic Ocean that 447 crashed in?

Sorry I’m Late

Great stop motion video project that reminds me of the Her Morning Elegance video. Make sure to check out the “Making Of” video.

I like this faucet because it looks great, but more importantly, it’s probably easy to clean.
