It has been way too long since I last made a Nerdtainment update and I guess my MBP is mad at me becuase when I finally got back to work, she didn’t want to work for me.  The sound wasn’t syncing up properly.  While I was troubleshooting that, the footage disappeared.  Oh, well…you can’t argue with Mercury Retrograde.  So, here’s my update in traditional blog format.

SNL
Saturday Night Live has finally decided to launch their own comedy website that will feature SNL clips and behind-the-scenes and backstage footage.  Welcome to the party, SNL!

Crusoe
To help promote the new NBC show Crusoe, they are building a treehouse on the corner of Broadway and 51st Street. There will be a live web cam stream at SaveCrusoe.com as well as Zune & Xbox giveaways.  And you can follow Robinson Crusoe himself on Twitter (which makes no sense at all)!

Spider-Man
The Broadway production of Spider-Man, that is currently being created by Julie Taymor (The Lion King), has become the most expensive production in theatre history. It has reached a budget of $40 million. With a weekly running cost of $1 million, the mathematicians have said it will have to run for 8,000 years just to break even. Yikes!

The End of Steve
Showtime has picked up the dark comedy The End of Steve, starring Mathew Perry.  I can’t express how excited this makes me.  I will watch Mathew Perry until the end of time!

Web Therapy
And speaking of my “Friends”…Lisa Kudrow has a new webseries, Web Therapy, which is on Lexus’ new L Studio. Kudrow plays an interesting therapist who only wants to do 3 minute sessions over video chat. She has an odd relationship with the first client played by the ever-brilliant Tim Bagley. There are three episodes up and each one is funnier than the last.

Hopefully, all will get fixed and Nerdtainment will be up and running next week!  Thanks for your patience.

One of the best 80′s television series is being revitalized.  With an updated cast and car, Knight Rider returns to NBC with a 2 hour event Sunday at 9pm.  KITT, Knight Industry Two Thousand, has been upgraded to Three Thousand and I bet its awesome.  Who doesn’t love a talking car and some kickass action?  Watch videos and get pumped up like me here.
