By popular demand, Modern Primate editor Chris Menning gives us "The Boyfriend's Guide to Downton Abbey, Season Two (Part One)."

And this time, not just because his girlfriend made him watch it with her.

Earlier this year, Chris gave us his thoughts on wildly popular PBS/ITV/Emmy-winning/critical darling television show, Downton Abbey. Slowly but surely the video found its way to Downton Abbey afficionados who are starved for anything Downton-related during the show's hiatus.

We're also pretty glad that Chris gave us another reason to talk about something Anglophilic besides the Olympics and Tom Daley's body. The end.

It's TVgasm Tuesday once again, and there has been some intense TV news this week, so get ready to be punched right in the nostalgia bone. If you were alive in the early 2000's (and very busy being a chubby middle schooler like this cool guy) you are going to straight up barf when you hear that Whose Line is it Anyway? is returning to television. If you're not already barfing, you will when you see pictures from the set of Anchorman 2 (also did you know Kristin Wiig is in this one? Because I did not, and that is a big deal). 

In other news Fox has renewed a few shows which is… well, exciting isn't the right word, but, I mean, I guess I'll probably watch them, I don't know. Game of Thrones has released new promotion posters for their new season, so call your older brother's nerdy friend, tell him the great news and listen as he mouth-breathes frantically in excitement. Downton Abbey has also released new "official" photos for season four, so call your mom's fortysomething friend, tell her the great news, and listen as she struggles to write a poorly worded Facebook status about it. 

This week on TVgasm:

Heidi Klum is back on top! Or at least, she's being paid a lot of money for very little work-- which is what I consider to be "the top!" Click to find out which show hired her!

The CW's 90210 is finally getting cancelled after five seasons of no one being interested in it. Listen, The CW, I'm all about revamps, but next time, let's try for some quality shows like…oh, I don't know...really ANYthing that won't revolve around nameless hot blonde teenagers storming out of rooms.

It's been a while since I've read or written anything about Honey Boo Boo, so I was really excited to read TVgasm's post about her girl scout cookies campaign. I think the next questions are: Will she be running with Hillary in 2016? Or will she start her own campaign? And what does she think about the current geopolitical climate?!

Remember: Don't judge someone for mouth-breathing. Actually don't do anything with someone who mouth-breathes.

It's TVgasm Tuesday, and I'm writing this from the grave because Beyoncé KILLED ME with her perfect Superbowl Halftime performance. I could probably have handled a regular Beyoncé performance, but by the time she started dancing with holograms of herself I just gave up and keeled over. If this weren't enough good news, SMASH premiers it's second season tonight, and I can confidently say that I am ready for another season of Megan Hilty's boobs, Jeremy Jordan charming the pants off of me, and Katherine McPhee just kind of being there. Don't get too excited though, there are still terrible things to look forward to, like Shia LaBeouf's shiny new twitter account. Let's see what TVgasm has for us...

This Week:

Okay. get ready for this first item because it's a doozy. Your computer might explode and the internet might crash when you watch a mashup of the two things everyone in the world shits their pants about: Sesame Street and Downton Abbey. Go watch!

Surprise, surprise: Ricki Lake's latest talk show has been canceled after one season. I mean, in a way it's sad, but I also think we can all use 70% fewer talk shows in our lives, and I'm sure the Today show will add a 16th hour to make up for it. 

Apparently Ke$ha is not only getting her own TV show, she's getting a documentary reality show about her life. Finally the world will know the truth: that the REAL Ke$ha is a tiny little man who lives inside a coked up blonde pop star's body and moves her around with various levers and buttons. Go read!

Remember: If you spell your name with anything but letters, you're doing it wrong!
