…House episodes are DIY?

House Episode Generator

Anyone who has ever watch an episode or two of House has no doubt realized that the story follows a somewhat predictable path on its way to conclusion.

Since it’s hard to move away from this pattern in a TV show about a doctor (People do need to get sick and he does need to save them after all!) it’s easily forgivable, but it’s also fun to work your way through the Cracked House Episode Creator and build your own sequence of events from the often repeated options.

Complete with beginning, ending, sidebars and cleavage shots from Cuddy, it’s everything you could ever need to create an award willing TV series, and then some.

Just remember though: When all else fails, fade to awesome.

…Rhys Millen will try to backflip again on New Years Eve?

Red Bull New Year No Limits

Remember last year when Rhys Millen managed to miss the landing pit during his truck backflip practice and break three vertebrae in his neck and compress and break two vertebrae in his back?

Well apparently his doctors have given him the go and he’s going to give it another try this New Year’s Eve during the second annual Red Bull New Year No Limits event, and he’s even posted a video of the crash to wet everyone’s appetite:

According to Rhys:

Last year we attempted what was before then thought impossible. Laws of physics and vehicle dynamics were pushed to the limits with success, but failure came in one small mis-calculation. My body can be broken but my mind cannot. This year, people will witness the first ramp to ramp back flip in an off-road truck – ever.

In addition to Rhys’ record setting attempt, Robbie Maddison will also be breaking a record during the event as he attempts to jump over 100 feet into the air and land atop the replical Arc de Triomphe in front of Paris Las Vegas. He’ll then drop off the Arc and freefall for more than 50 feet to land on a massive landing ramp below.

I know I’ll be tuning in; will you?

…It’s Movie Monday: Trouble in Boro Olympus?

Trouble in Boro Olympus is a short form TV pilot for The Triboro, an episodic one hour dramatic series about a group of youth in The Triboro (Olympus, Black Mountain & White Valley) that join forces and stand up to the ring of corruption that has taken control of their towns. It’s a suspenseful, noir, epic, and doesn’t neglect all the teenage stuff that keeps things honest:

Are online pilots set to become the future of television?

With quality like this, I sure don’t see why not.

…Hulu is growing?

Hulu

As a major supporter of the Hulu movement, I’m glad to see that they’re continuing to develop the online TV alternative with new shows and exclusive viewings.

Their “Fall Premiere Lineup” includes favorites like “Bones,” “Heroes,” “House,” “The Office,” “Family Guy,” “The Simpsons,” “My Own Worst Enemy,” “Crusoe,” and “30 Rock”, while shows like “Knight Rider,” “Chuck,” “Life,” and “Lipstick Jungle” are even slated to debut on Hulu more than a week before they go live on broadcast TV.

Even the technology continues to improve, as more and more shows are available in 480p for resolutions that approach HD. (And on most computer monitors, you’d probably never notice any difference above 480p, though that’s not true if you’ve got your computer hooked into your home entertainment system.)

…It’s Movie Monday: Take Me Back?

Take Me Back

Take Me Back is an original web series about Al.

    There’s not much to say about Al, except that his life is pretty boring. He goes to work, listens to talk radio, then comes home and listens to talk radio. He’s a compulsive note taker, constantly logging in the minutiae of his life in a little brown book. Also, he possesses the uncanny ability to fix just about anything that’s broken.

Then one day, Al’s life turns upside down when he’s kidnapped by a masked vigilante after an unusual day in his otherwise mundane life.

New chapters debut each and every Monday, and if web is going to become the future of entertainment, I think this is a good start.

Would you watch a TV series this way?
