Wonderful

Dave!The best show on television you probably aren't watching is called Wonderfalls airing Friday nights at 9:00 on FOX. I'm totally hooked, but am fearful of getting attached to it since something this cool is just too good to last. Nope, it will undoubtedly be cancelled so that we can get yet another mind-numbing "reality" show. How sad. You should give it a try before it disappears forever (UPDATE: This coming week, they are airing it on Thursday, April 1st... then it's back to Fridays again).

In other television news... while watching tonight's excellent Wonderfalls, I saw this really cool commercial for AXE body spray. It's kind of a nifty chain-reaction type thing that you can view on their site by following this link...

The Axe Effect!

Not only is the ad itself terrific, but now I can't get the song out of my head... "you give me love... love... love... love..."

ooo we get that ad here too! Except here it's Lynx not Axe.

Ah, but I'll bet in Australia you get the "full" version that's shown at the link... thanks to Janet Jackson's Boobiegate, we get an edited version without the humping frogs, the panties, and the ending. Instead we get hugging frogs, a cut to the old man in slow-mo, and two worms kissing in the shape of a heart. It's really a shame... the uncut version is much cooler because it comes full-circle with that bartender eating the worm.

oh really?? Yes we get the full thing. I found censorship in america highly amusing last time I was there. Even swearing that I would have considered "tame" was censored, not to mention Kate Winslet stripping in Titanic :) It just seemed really funny in a country that produces so many movies etc with sex, drugs, violence and swearing in them.

I'm just surprised that such a big deal is made out of something like this, yet advertisements for erectile disfunction drugs which would require a *lot* more explaining to children are allowed free passage.
