i don't know butchie, instead

some things i know, some things i don't.

have you seen "john from cincinnati"? it's amazing. it's the newest HBO show that started the same night as the finale of the sopranos. amazing show. absolutely amazing show.

it's about a surfing family. the father, mitch, was a great surfer and is retired. the son, butchie, "revolutionized" surfing but became a heroin fuck up. now the grandson, sean, (heroin dude's son) is the future of surfing. none of these guys are named john.

then there is ed o'neil, of married with children fame. he is the uncle of the grandson, but not sure whose brother...perhaps grandma.

there is also...grandma is hot by the way. i don't remember her characters name but the role is played by rebecca dimorne...sp? she's older but still got bone me written all over both back pockets of her jeans...holler at your boy...who i guess in this situation is your weener. though, when you think about it, your boy is usually the one that hollers at you in those situations...so listen to your boy when he hollers. holler.

anyway, ed o'neil plays a role closer to the one he played in wanyes world. in that movie, he played the war veteran who was all crazy. in this, he plays a veteran with what might be post traumatic stress sydnrome or something. i don't know. just cause you bone one doesn't make you one (doctor).

and luke perry is in it. i'm not trying to sound all george michael or anything (singer, not arrested development genius) but having luke perry only adds to what appears to be an amazing show. all we've learmed abpit luke perry so far is that he is a sponser and was the son's sponser...however, the butchie turned to heroin and was banned from all sorts of events, lost the sponsorship, yada yada yada, now mitch pretty much hates him. as a result of butchie being a fuck up, mitch, who with hot grandma are legal guardians of sean, wants to keep sean out of all events. sean, however, is clearly the future of surfing. luke perry gets his demo tape and is all about signing him.

so that's about all that's happened....oh, and mitch started floating a few times and that makes no sense to me whatsoever, but it happend.

anyway, the best part about this show, other than the drug issues, the family issues, the shredding on a surfboard (YEAH, using the terminology, i'm the man), is john from cincinnati.

as mo would say, he's loonier than a toon. he uses the same phrases over and over again, like "some things i know, some things i don't". he shows up at butchie's door and butchie determines he is there to learn to surf from the "beast" (butchie). but all he's really done is repeat things butchie has said to him. for example, butchie tells him say "i don't know butchie" instead of saying "some things i know, some things i don't". get it?

fucking crazy.

i don't know what it is about shows with dudes like this but i always want to be like them. who knows what his derangement is but he's genius. he looks like james dean. he has with him $2300, a platinum card (BALLIN) and his id. it seems whatever else he is asksed for materializes out of his pocket.

something is going on on this show and i'm all about it. check this show out. some things i know, some things i don't, but timmy would love this show.

now, jack, gchat him and tell him the shit is updated.

We were going too long without a comment here. It seems like a good show and Im going to watch it. My question is, do they flip to on demand. My plan is to get HBO very soon because I didnt get it for the last few months and now that all of the other shows i love are done with their seasons.

Lost
Heroes
The Office
Hustle
Deadliest Catch
24
Reno 911
Ultimate Fighter (still 1 episode left)

Th only show I have left to watch is the 4400 which is on USA and basically the original Heroes in terms of plot. It doesnt have the same format as the big thrillers of today. As in never answer any questions unless you are going to create a bigger question. So its more satisfying than heroes. If you like TV and are bummed at the lack of choices, watch it you'll be pleasantly surprised and the season JUST started. Anyway I'm going to get HBO now so that I can watch entourage and sopranos on demand during the dry season, is this on there as well?
