Weekend Plans for a David Wain Fan:
- Buy tickets for Wanderlust.
- See Wanderlust (on Friday, February 24th, the day that it opens).
- Sleep.
- Dream about Wanderlust and how much we love seeing movies that David Wain directs.
- See Wanderlust again.
- Clean our room (mostly to make room for the Wanderlust poster we're going to buy).
- Watch the Wainy Days DVD.
- See Wanderlust (the matinee on Sunday).
- Have lunch at Five Guys.
- Write a fan letter to David Wain and Ken Marino, thanking them for writing Wanderlust.
- Watch the Oscars.
- Live-tweet the Oscars and tell everyone at our Oscar party why David Wain really deserves to be there.
- Write a status update on Facebook about how amazing Wanderlust is.
- Send a friend request to David Wain.
- Like the Wanderlust Facebook Page.
- Tell everyone we know to see Wanderlust, too.
Basically. Probably. In a nutshell. Most likely. Surely. Definitely.

We have David Wain, Erinn Hayes, Lizzy Caplan, Ken Marino, Jorma Taccone, Zandy Hartig, Steven Weber and a BRAND NEW SEASON of the award-winning Wainy Days starting on December 5th!
Color us super excited! Even if it's a weird color! Like purple or teal! Who would want to be purple or teal?!
But if that's the color of excited, then that's what we want to be! We're THAT excited!
Wainy Days returns with all-new episodes for Season 5 on December 5th!

Jonah Hill is skinny.
Perhaps you've heard? He's in a new movie called
Moneyball and he's been making the promotional rounds and we're here to tell you that the rumors are true: he's super-slimmed down.
You see, it just so happens that your
humble My Damn Channel blogger went to a professional baseball game last week and saw him in person when he threw out the first pitch:

It is a very different look from his
Wainy Days role:
But just like we told our mom when she asked, "Is that the same guy from your Wainy Days show? Is he a good friend of yours or something? Should you go down to the field and say 'hi' to him?" We'll tell you the truth:
"Yes it's the same guy."
"No, we're not good friends."
"NO, MOM, WE'RE NOT GOING DOWN TO THE FIELD TO SAY 'HI.'"
But that last part was mostly just because security wouldn't let us.

Yesterday was OUR birthday, today is the birthday of two My Damn Channel stars: David Wain and Coolio!
Did we know this when we started working with them? No!
Does this mean anything to anyone but us? No!
Are we glad that these things all seem relevant enough to put into a single blog post? Yes! Yes! A thousand times, yes!
In honor of the anniversaries of their birth, here are our (my) favorite Wainy Days and Cookin' With Coolio episodes:
"Donna"
and "Caprese Salad"
Happy Birthday to everyone who has a birthday to today-- even if you aren't a successful comedian/writer/director/cult-comedy icon or a rapper/actor/chef/juggalo!
Patricia Heaton stopped by "Good Morning America" to chat about her hit TV show "The Middle" and to hip the world to the new twisted comedy Versailles here on My Damn Channel.
Episode 1 and Episode 2 are playing now.
New episodes every Monday.
We're only two weeks away from the launch of
Versailles. Among the many stars of this dark and twisted comedy is the illustrious Fred Willard. Would it be bold of me to say that Versailles puts Fred in one of his top five comedic roles ever? Yes it would, and I just said it.
Versailles launches May 9th. Check out this
promo (featuring Fred Willard in a wrestling onesie) and set your internet for May 9th so you can be the first to check out this great new series.

Our pal Josh Gad is, as they say, blowin' up big time, with supporting roles in big-budget
Hollywood melodramas and a co-lead role in the new Broadway hit
The Book of Mormon, the latter of which is currently making the critics swoon, Outer Darkness be damned. And Josh will also be on the Today Show tomorrow morning, Saturday March 19th, to further his Gadian agenda. So set your alarm, wake up early, and tune in to NBC.
If that wasn't enough, Josh is set to unleash the final prong of his multilevel media-domination masterplan next week in the form of Gigi: Almost American, which premieres right here on My Damn Channel next week, starting March 23.
Part Borat, part Latka Gravas, and all Gad, Gigi is the befuddled, accident-prone outsider lurking inside all of us: earnest, well-meaning, and utterly clueless. So stop by next Wednesday, grab a pig dog, roll down your windows, and howl at the moon.

The new Farrelley Bros. comedy Hall Pass was the #1 movie in the country last week, and much of the credit can be placed on the broad, heartland-handsome shoulders of co-star Jason Sudeikis. Not surprising, as the man’s talents are legion: one-time Blue Man Group wannabe, dater of Hollywood starlets, George Wendt’s nephew, etc. And don’t sleep on SNL, where he portrays a wide variety of characters ranging from the pathetic to the nettlesome, including one-half of both Jon Bovi, the world’s worst Bon Jovi tribute band, and the titular “Two A-Holes.”
But by far, Sudeikis’s most daunting role to date has been as none other than our very own David Wain, wherein attacks the role of My Damn Channel’s favorite lovelorn man-child with the kind of method intensity not seen since Ben Kingsley cinched up his cloth diaper to play mankind’s other great savior, Mahatma Ghandi. Maybe this Believer article was the key to his research. Then again, maybe there’s a little David Wain in all of us (gross).

According to "the internets", there are no 2011 year model cars that come with tape decks. How am I supposed to listen to my cassette single of Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" without a tape deck??? This must have been how my Dad felt when he found out they stopped making LaserDisc players (which was surprisingly only in 2009).
