Put A Tony Danza On It


After watching Mark Malkoff's "Free Cab Rides" video, we were particularly struck by the part where Mark and his driver Sean decide to "Tony Danza" the cab.

Brilliant.

An ode to Tony Danza's turn in TAXI, sure, but why not an ode to Tony Danza in general? We're ashamed to admit that we think about Who's The Boss? on almost a daily basis. Like, who WAS the boss? That question has boggled us since we were seven. So, we thought, let's Tony Danza some sh*t.


(Jeff Bezos "Put A Tony Danza" on the Kindle Fire!)


(Wanna make How To Make It In America a better show?
"Put A Tony Danza On It!")


Here, maybe you wanna "Put A Tony Danza On It" yourself?


Go for it! You know how on Portlandia they "Put A Bird On It?" Well, maybe the rest of us should "Put A Tony Danza On It." Maybe you want to help a new generation embrace a beloved 80's sitcom star due to an obscure but indefatigable movement to put his likeness in unexpected places!

Or, you know, maybe you're just bored and you don't suck at Photoshop. Either of those reasons could lead to a perfectly acceptable decision to "Put A Tony Danza On It." Just be sure to let us know if you do.



Question: IFC -- Answer: Portlandia

Check out our boy Rob with Fred Amisen at IFC's Q&A at the Apple Store Soho.

Fred and his musician-turned-comedianne counterpart Carrie Brownstein were there discussing their new hit show Portlandia (Fri. 10:30pm. IFC) which is garnering rave reviews from just about everyone - even the Harvard Business Review.

Weird, huh? I mean, not weird that it's getting rave reviews from everyone but weird that Harvard would--you know what I mean. Just read it.


Portlandia is so funny it killed Jack LaLanne

Too soon? You're right. It is too soon to tell if Portlandia is going to be THAT funny. But based on it's premier episode, it's got the potential to be a killer show.

And yes, fitness legend Jack LaLanne did die (shown here doing FINGERTIP PUSH-UPS!). The man was a tank, and @MarylandMudflap has tweeted a fitting eulogy.

"Jack LaLanne will carry his own casket at his funeral."


Bob Dylan Signs Six Book Deal?!


It's no secret that we love Bob Dylan at My Damn Channel, so we were extremely excited to read on IFC.com that it's rumored Bob Dylan has signed a six book deal, and will continue his enlightening, though typically enigmatic, memoir series "Chronicles".  The first volume was released in 2004, so it's been a while since we've had the privilege to enter the mind of Mr. Dylan. 

And even though it's just a rumor, we're confident that it's gonna happen.  Why?  Well, we first heard the news via IFC, who just so happen to have content from their new series "Portlandia" on My Damn Channel. 



Coincidence?  I think not!

So while we're waiting for "Portlandia" to premiere tomorrow at 10:30pm on IFC, and for the next Dylan volume to come out in who knows how long, enjoy this performance from Sweet Pea Atkinson, a soul singing legend who has recorded with Bob Dylan.
