I have gotten a plethora of cool press releases have been flooding my inbox recently that you may find interesting. This post will include blurbs on ABC Family's winter lineup, Angry Boys, Luck, Philly Undercover, Best TV of 2011, Rubik’s Cube, Skype, and America's Got Talent.
- ABC Family is kicking off the new year with the premiere of four shows and created the promo to let you know when they air pop up. For those too lazy to press play, Pretty Little Liars will return Monday, January 2 at 8:00 followed by a new episode of The Lying Game. Then on Tuesday, Switched at Birth will finish out its first season on new day and time Tuesday January 3 at 8:00. Then at 9:00 will be new show Jane by Design.
- What better way to ring in the New Year than with a new television show? On New Year’s Day, HBO will be premiering their newest show Angry Boys, from the guy who brought you Summer Heights High, at 10:00. Below is a trailer. And for those that cannot waity, you can head over to the show’s Facebook page to play Hammer Sandwich, a game created for the show.
- In other HBO debut news, Luck from director Michael Mann and writer Davis Milch (Deadwood) starring Dustin Hoffman will be hitting the channel January 29. Here is a look at the poster.
- Another new show coming your way early next year is Philly Undercover on Nat Geo Wild that goes undercover (natch) with a police unit in Philadelphia (double natch) to combat extreme cases of animal cruelty such as dog fighting and cat hoarding. Being that it is being filmed in the city that the Eagles play, no word yet on a Michael Vick cameo. Philly Undercover will premiere at 10:00 after an all new Dog Whisperer.
- Starting Tuesday, I will have a new Best of 2011 list every day until the end of the year, but those that need some yearend list now, TV Guide has released it list of the fifteen best TV shows of the year with Homeland topping the list. Friday Night Lights somehow was only 10.
- The latest Funny or Die video features, you guessed it, a Rubik’s Cube. If you can actually solve one, you can head over to its Facebook page.
- Why send out the same old boring Christmas cards this year when you can have Alice Cooper do it for you? You can get Alice (or if he might scare Granny Smith, Boyz II Men is also available) head over to skype.com to see how you can send customized video music cards for free.
- Howard Stern is the new judge for America’s Got Talent. The nineteen year old version of myself will be very excited by this news.
