Look! It’s Us! On TV! This Weekend!

December 16th, 2009 By Stuart Heritage

Excuse this moment of gratuitous self-promotion, but we feel the need to direct you to Current TV’s 50 Greatest Viral Videos this weekend.

Why? Well, partly because it’s a breathtakingly entertaining rundown of the 50 biggest-ever videos to set YouTube on fire – featuring Dramatic Chipmunk, Chocolate Rain and Keyboard Cat to name but three – but also because it’s ludicrously hecklerspray heavy. Tune in and you’ll see contributions from erstwhile hecklerspray editor Stuart Heritage, plus appearances by the fearsome and enigmatic C J Davies – plus it’s all being hosted by Brett Domino, who we seem to have adopted as our bloody mascot this week.

You want proof? Fine, here’s proof – have a sneak peak of our well-edited witticisms after the jump…

Look! Portishead’s Current TV Show In Full

March 25th, 2009 By Stuart Heritage

As some of you probably know, trip-hop sloths Portishead have finally got round to squeaking out their third album in, like, 400 years or something, entitled Third.

To help promote it, Portishead recently debuted seven songs from Third on Current TV in a 35-minute special. And Current TV being what it is, the entire performance went on the internet. And the internet being what it is, we’ve pinched it so you can watch it all here.

It’s actually pretty good, especially if you like music that sounds like an asthmatic having a panic attack at the bottom of a well. Enjoy.

Look! Here’s C J Davies Slagging Off Second Life!

March 25th, 2009 By Stuart Heritage

Eagle-eyed hecklerspray readers might have noticed that our erstwhile scribe – and the man who brought the beauty of Bumrape Island to your attention – C J Davies doesn't particularly like Second Life.

And now his rampant hatred of Second Life has spiralled out of all control, resulting in this short video for digital channel Current TV where C J just goes on and on about how much he dislikes Second Life. Really – on and on and on he goes, slating Second Life to such a degree that it might as well just kill itself.
