Disney After Dark

I believe the Disney-ABC Television Group is missing out on some great opportunities, by limiting their audience with only kids’ programming on their Disney branded channels. Much like The Cartoon Network has their Adult Swim programming block, Disney could benefit from programming aimed at its adult audience but under the Disney brand.  Here are my suggestions for the proposed Disney After Dark programming block.

The Women Of Daytime Television

October 19th, 2008 No Comments   Posted in Funny Pictures, Photoshop Phun, Pop Culture

Playboy has been highly successful in selling magazines that follow a certain theme. The Women of Wal-Mart, the Women of McDonalds and the Women Of Starbucks are just a few examples. However, when Playboy approached the various TV networks about doing a Women of Network News pictorial, the parties they were most interested in declined. When discussions began about doing a feature on the Women of Daytime Television, most were skeptical, but a few anxious bodies volunteered for the shoot.

Julie Chen, a co-anchor on CBS’s The Early Show, Kathy Lee Gifford from NBC’s Today Show, Elisabeth Hasselbeck from ABC’s The View and Ellen Degeneres have all taken part in this historic photoshoot.

The staff at Extremely Funny are pleased to be able to offer an exclusive sneek-peek of pictures from  the recent shoot.

My Pitch To the Cable TV Networks

July 22nd, 2008 2 Comments   Posted in Distorted Viewpoint, Funny Pictures, Marketing Genuis, Photoshop Phun, Pop Culture

I think I have a pretty good grasp on what the general public enjoys. And with the various cable outlets trying to entice you to watch their newest and latest offerings, I thought it only suitable to pitch a couple of my ideas.

Pimp My Nun

MTV found great success in the vehicular makeover show, Pimp My Ride. Following the successful formula, it only makes sense that the next big thing would be to overhaul something near and dear to all our hearts…Nuns. No longer should a nun be looked upon as vicious and mean. The credo for this show is to take the “con” out of “convent”, and put the “sizzle” back into “sister”. Noone can dispute the joy is watching Sister Hattie transformed into “Sister Hottie”.

Freak Of Love

Both Flavor Flav and Bret Michaels showed a new side of themselves with their breakthrough hits on VH1 (Flavor of Love and Rock of Love and respectively). This time, its Brian Hugh Warner’s turn. Warner, known to most as shock rocker Marilyn Manson, is torn between his two dream girls, pop singer/former reality show starlet Jessica Simpson, and sex kitten actress Cameron Diaz.

Who doesn’t want to see Manson try to align himself and find love from one of “The Beautiful People”?

Drunk Girls Caught On Tape

Outside of airing reruns for cult hits like CSI and Star Trek, SpikeTV has been home to shows featuring police car chases, criminals caught in awkward positions and other programming featuring amateur video clips of shocking and titillating events. If you want to understand the premise for this show, look at the picture above. Enough said.

How Heroes Get Motivated

I thought this poster would be appropriate after hearing that Heroes co-stars Hayden Panettiere, 18 and co-star Milo Ventimiglia, 31, (who plays Peter Petrelli ) were a couple.

Going From Ugly To Slutty

July 3rd, 2008 2 Comments   Posted in Distorted Viewpoint, Marketing Genuis, Pop Culture

Recent reports indicate that ABC is looking at giving at least one show on its Thursday night lineup a bit of face lift. In order to grab hold of the ever elusive 18-35 yr old male market, Ugly Betty will be undergoing some massive changes. Originally based on the Columbian telenovela, “Yo soy Betty, la fea” (”I am Betty, the ugly one“), the new story arcs will be based on the more successful Mexican telenovela, “Yo soy Betty, la puta del fin de semana” (”I am Betty, the weekend whore”).

In the season opener, Betty Suarez (played by America Ferrera) finds herself in the arms of Daniel (played by Eric Mabius) after a night of binge-drinking. Following a passionate night of hot tawdry sex, Daniel mistakingly hands Betty several hundred dollars. Realizing her true potential, Betty decides to continue spending her week working for Meade Publishing, and her weekends sleeping with random men for fists full of cash.

The newly dubbed “Slutty Betty” should begin airing on ABC in September.
