Anyone happen to be at the Dodgers-Diamondbacks game last Friday night at Dodger Stadium? Did you see our name up in lights? (Yes, we know what attendance is like these days at Dodger Stadium, so we're going to guess that not many of you did.)
We're in LA!
We're here to take the winners of the Versailles Sweepstakes to meet Patricia Heaton and David Hunt!
We're using exclamation marks at the end of each sentence because we really are THAT EXCITED about everything!
Stay tuned for more pictures of the winners and their prize...
Congratulations to Susanna Stevens of North Carolina! She's the winner of our "Versailles" Sweepstakes and will be meeting Patricia Heaton and David Hunt in Los Angeles.
Don't be a sourpuss if you didn't win, we'll have more opportunities soon.
Thanks to everyone for entering, sharing, clicking, and liking. Lookout, L.A., Susanna is coming for you!
(*Actual product will most likely look nothing like this. Also, wings not included.)
Lately, My Damn Channel swag has been flying off the shelves and onto people's bodies at an alarming rate. It seems like everyone wants a new T-shirt in their hands (or on their torso, at least.) After all, who wouldn't want a slice of pie from the larger bakery that is the world of My Damn Channel paraphernalia?
Take My Damn Channel viewser JustNeph... please! When we asked folks to tweet at us with the phrase "I want #MyDamnPen!" Neph responded. And we didn't let his plea fall on deaf ears, hooking him up with not one but TWO My Damn Channel pens, and a MY DAMN CHANNEL STICKER.
And here's our pal Dom Galati donning a sharp new My Damn Channel tee...
And if you want your very own My Damn Channel shirt, you can follow Rocky Rector's example and be the one this week to get the most friends to sign up for our ongoing Versailles sweepstakes. Additional info is here.
Go ahead and sign yourself up, while you're at it. Winner gets a free trip for two to L.A. to meet Versailles (watch it!) co-stars and creators Patricia Heaton and David Hunt. There's only one week left to enter, so if you need to, now would be a good time to buy a working mouse.
Check out our "The Book of Mormon" sweepstakes winner Sharon Cruz-Nichols and her husband, James, with Josh Gad after the show! Here's to our guests - we hope you had a blast in NYC.

Thanks to the magic of the internet, every episode of the "You're in Sports" gang's regret-and-gin-soaked shenanigoats is available for free and forever on our Versailles channel, thus completely negating the need to fake your own death and move to a new city under an assumed identity. Besides, such a mad plan would be doomed to failure. If there's anything Evelyn Anders & Co. have taught us, it's that escape from one's past is impossible.
But what's NOT impossible is a chance to actually meet Versailles stars Patricia Heaton (Evelyn) & David Hunt (Colin) in Los Angeles.
How? By entering the Versailles Sweepstakes Giveaway on our Facebook page!
Here's the deal: "like" us on Facebook, then enter as many times as you want to increase your chances of winning.
Plus, every time someone else enters the sweepstakes after YOU invite them, you get THREE ADDITIONAL ENTRIES.
And while you're at it, go ahead and "like" our official Versailles Facebook pages for a full FIVE ADDITIONAL ENTRIES. It's almost obscene how many chances we're giving you to win this.
Complete, lawyer-y entry information can be found here. And follow us on Twitter to keep up to date with all the latest sweepstakes info.
Summer Tickler-Hoogerhyde (Eve Gordon) revisits her old "friend" Honeybump in the newest episode of
Versailles.
Every time I think we've hit the most twisted moments of this series, it goes to a new level. Good thing Hoyt (Fred Willard) is there is manage the bunch.
