Blue Man GroupYeah, this is complete bullshit! Amanda told me about this last week. It was obvious that the throat cam thing was a complete sight gag, using a pre-rendered/recorded video loop. We were watching a Blue Man Group video from HDNet just this weekend and it’s obvious by the size of this camera that there would be no way the camera could even remotely be put down someone’s throat. This guy is just trying to get free cash, and it’s messed up as the Blue Man Group outfit puts on good and entertaining shows.

This isn’t a publicity stunt by the Blue Man Group is it? You can’t ask for advertising and/or drumming up talk about your show like this!

Man Claims Blue Man Group Forced a Camera Down His Throat

You definitely can see tumbleweeds floating across our TiVos, majorly due to the writers’ strike. Typically, we’d be knee-deep in new primetime shows to watch in the evenings – “Prison Break”, “24,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Private Practice,” “Smallville,” etc. to name a few. Instead, we’re scrounging for things to watch most nights.

We have started watching “Holmes on Homes” (no it’s not a porn!) and “It Takes a Thief”, but they get old, and it looks like “It Takes a Thief” is defunct now too. I don’t mind more Xbox 360 time, but Amanda does.
