ICON: Jack Donaghy from 30 Rock

Congratulations to Jack Donaghy for being our next ESM Icon.  His style, charisma and incredible humor made him a clear winner.
To be honest, just doing biographical research about Jack Donaghy made me laugh for hours on end.  Sometimes I wonder where writers come up with some of these things (excerpts from his Wikipedia entry):
His mother Colleen Murphy [...]

CLASSIC TV: Top Gear

Every gear head/petrol head out there knows what the BBC show Top Gear is all about – 3 crazy, funny, car fanatical middle aged men were basically given a tv show to do, well, whatever the hell they want.
The three main hosts are Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May.  Although their dress and hairstyle selection [...]

THE DIME PIECE: Liz Vassey

For anyone that’s a fan of the original CSI TV Show, there’s a new(ish) crime lab character on there played by Liz Vassey.  On the show, she’s cute and always makes you take a second look.
After doing some research, however, you realize that she is HOT.  Just check out some of her photos below:

Here’s a [...]

ICON: Neal Caffrey from White Collar

So a few weeks ago, we proclaimed White Collar (a new TV show from USA Networks) to be a classic.  A good storyline, great characters and some pretty good acting helped make this show what it is.
Today, we’re claiming Neal Caffrey (the main character of the show) to be an ESM Icon.
I guess the second best thing [...]

THE DIME PIECE: Yvonne Strahovski

There’s a certain brilliance to the immortal formula for success when it comes to creating a show for nerds/fanboys:
Secret Agent + Hot Girl + Relatable Funny Guy = $$$$$
The TV show Chuck, on NBC is no different.  I think the best part is that the Relatable Funny Guy is starting to become the cool secret [...]

CLASSIC COMMERCIAL: Victoria’s Secret by Michael Bay

Okay so here’s an amazing idea – Victoria’s Secret models (a lot of them), a Bentley Continental GT, a classic motorcycle, a helicopter and explosions.  Oh yeah, and have the entire thing directed by Michael Bay.
If that isn’t brilliant, I don’t know what is.
I think the only thing better would be to have me in [...]

ICON: Michael Westin from Burn Notice

Maybe it’s just the Oliver Peoples sunglasses.  Maybe it’s the fact that his character is a superspy with an astute sense of humor.  Perhaps it’s because he drives a vintage Dodge Charger with white leather interior.
Whatever the case, Michael Westin is a great candidate for our next ESM Icon.
Whether it’s dodging bullets from his enemies [...]

CLASSIC TV: Mad TV’s Project Runway Spoof

 This is one of the most classic TV clips spoofing popular reality TV.  It’s great because – well – it’s hilarious.  I think the best part is when the Asian designer says he is Irish.  Fantastic TV worth watching over and over again.
Check it out below:
 

THE DIME PIECE: Olivia Munn

For any gamer or fan of G4, this article should probably be printed and posted on your wall at your mom’s house (where you live).
Olivia Munn, or Lisa Olivia Munn is most famous for her hosting gig on Attack of the Show! on the G4 channel.
Here is a little excerpt from her Wiki:
Lisa Olivia Munn was [...]

CLASSIC COMMERCIALS: Ketel One – “Gentlemen, this is vodka”

Ketel One has released a new ad campaign titled, “Gentlemen, this is vodka”. It’s a compilation of great upscale commercials showcasing dudes that look like dudes doing things dudes should be doing.
On top of that, they are all wearing some pretty nice suits.
Check the videos out below.
