HEY! That's not Wolf Blitzer!
Actor/author/director/satirist/musician/radio host Harry Shearer's
found footage of the CNN team prepping for the Florida Republican Debate using civilians as stand-ins for the candidates might be the best thing to happen to the GOP Debate since
Michele Bachmann took the longest pee break ever.
Newt Gingrich is looking decidedly more feminine since the last time we saw him. When the petite redheaded woman introduces herself as "Newt Gingrich" and proclaims "I just ran a marathon before I got here," Fake Wolf Blitzer chuckles and her fellow faux candidates smile.
Could they possibly find her more charming than the real thing?
Hey GOP Candidates, relax a little! Slip into something more comfortable! Let your hair down!
That's more like it. Now how about we whistle the National Anthem?

It's back! It's back!
Wainy Days is back with all new episodes! Here are some reasons we're jumping up and down right now (Really. We are. Right now. We promise.):
1. David Wain knows how to bring the hot girls.
It's true. David Wain's past adventures have included Rashida Jones, Elizabeth Banks, Amanda Peet and Megan Mullally. If there's one thing we've been missing in our lives, it's a reliable source of HOT GIRLS.
2. Erinn Hayes and Lizzy Caplan.
Two ridiculously hot girls. This is different from number one because we're being specific. Okay, so maybe it's a subdivision of number one. What are you our English teacher? (
Seriously, is that you, Mrs. O'Neil?!)
3. Jorma Taccone.
A member of The Lonely Island, director of MacGruber, and probably one of the few men on the planet who can make this face in a song called "J--z In My Pants" and have millions of women think it's adorable:
4. David Wain.
We're so happy that between writing and shooting Childrens Hospital and making a movie with Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston and touring the country in honor of Wet Hot American Summer, David could find the time to get himself into a Fiat and drive around with old friends like Ken Marino, Thomas Lennon, Zandy Hartig and Steven Weber to entertain us and make us laugh and give us new videos to watch every Monday when we're supposed to be doing something else at work.
Thanks, David Wain. This Wain's for you:

The new Paul Rudd-starring "Our Idiot Brother" opens in theaters this weekend, gifting America with the genial tale of a simple-minded fuckup (Rudd) and his exhasperated extented family. I haven't seen it yet, but David Wain has...
And while he's undoubtably correct, Mr. Wain may not be the most impartial critic. The "Brother" cast list reads like a who's who of Wainy Days All-Stars. Aside from Paul Rudd, there's Rashida Jones, Elizabeh Banks, and, let's see... looks like that's it. But hey, three's a lot! Besides, would David Wain ever steer you wrong?

The
Only 5 Reasons You Might Miss
NTSF:SD:SUV::
1. Trent Hauser's voice brings back bad memories of Christian Bale in "The Dark Knight."
2. You're a long-time fan of "Seinfeld" reruns.
3. 12:15 a.m. only means one thing to you. Omelette Time.
4. Your remote is missing the 7.
5. You're allergic to watching NTSF:SD:SUV::.
Those are the ONLY reasons you might miss this show tonight. And we expect doctors' notes from you if you do.
1. You know it's brought to you by the same people who gave you
Wainy Days, and that's good enough for you goshdarnit!
2. You've always kind of had a thing for Kate Mulgrew in positions of authority.
3. You always kind of had a thing for Jack Bauer but your eyesight isn't so great and Paul Scheer as Trent Hauser will do.
4. REBECCA ROMIJN.
5. Because we're asking you. Nicely. And you like us. A lot.
Watch it on Adult Swim on Thursday nights at 12:15am!
1. All of those colons in the title are hypnotizing you.
2. Paul Scheer is making a FAKE GUN WITH HIS HANDS in all of the promo ads and that is high-larious to you and your Charlie's Angels fetish.
3. You grew up in the age of AIM, so you just kind of have a "thing" for initials and acronyms. OMG, IKR?
4. You actually did get it confused CSI or NCIS or SVU or something.
5. You'll probably forget to change the channel after watching
Childrens Hospital anyway.
So watch it tonight on Adult Swim on Thursdays at 12:15am!

The hilarious new National Terrorism Strike Force: San Diego: Sport Utility Vehicle, aka NTSF:SD:SUV:: premieres tonight on Adult Swim with the epic first episode, “Mexican Space Shuttle.” So break out the no-doze, because when the clock strikes 12:15 am, NTSF:SD:SVU:: will go from being a fictional television show on the hospital drama spoof Childrens Hospital to real-life police procedural spoof. To put it simply, NTSF:SD:SUV is to CSI what Childrens Hospital is to Grey’s Anatomy.
Like the show it spun off of, NTSF:SD:SUV:: (whose full title looks like it belongs in the now-defunct analogies section of the SATs) is chock full of performers who are no stranger to My Damn Channel. For example, here's NTSF cast member Martin Starr getting all his teeth knocked out by David Wain. Plus, Executive Producer Jonathan Stern is one of the men responsible for both Wainy Days and Horrible People, writing and directing a number of Wainy Days episodes, including this one.
So watch it every Thursday night at 12:15am on Adult Swim!
There'd be NO My Damn Channel if David Wain hadn't said YES to being one of the first artists that launched with us here on "day one" (7/31/07) with the very first episode of "Wainy Days" starring David & Elizabeth Banks.
4 seasons and almost 4 years later - there are 32 awesome episodes (so far) and this morning another well-deserved kiss:
"Wainy Days" has just been selected as an Official Honoree for Comedy Series in the 15th annual Webby Awards.
Congratulations to David, to our most awesome Producer, Jon Stern, and to every collaborator and fan supporting one of the best comedy series ever.
We promise MORE...and work has just begun on a "Wainy Days" DVD coming out later this year near the release of David's new feature film comedy, "Wanderlust."

Those 3 tired words are decades old but Hollywood hopes they help you fall in love
with new shows.
We put quotes around our "new fall season" - knowing we can't fool you into love - but hoping it feels just a little funnier that way.
In two years, we’ve birthed 25 channels of music and comedy…working with
artists we love. We think you’ve taught us how to get talent and new
series worthy of your evil eye.
Help us buy another bag of chips for lunch!

It may be wise for us to let the Beatles Rock Band take over the world for a few days before putting out the My Damn Channel 'new fall season' announcements.
We do have a new deal with Sir Paul McCartney - in some fashion. And we'll reveal all the secrets about new, XTRA LARGE talent & a full slate of new series...
this coming Monday, September 14 on www.MyDamnChannel.com
