You’ve seen those orange Guido’s in Jersey Shore with names like The Situation, Snooki, JWoww, and Sweetheart. Now get ready for the UK version with the same custard-coloured, massive and ripped, carbon-copy cast but with UK accents. In this series they’ll do exactly what their American counterparts are doing with their existence: NOTHING. Meet them inside.
The blonde in the middle of that group-shot is cricket legend Allan Lamb‘s daughter, Katie-Ann. It was from a fundraiser shoot she did a couple years back, to raise awareness for breast cancer. Nice. Katie-Ann flew into Jo’burg from England especially to audition for Supersport’s new ‘Lady Rugga” vibe – in search of a female […]
We all watched that television series Full House when we were younger. We all loved it and it was one of the funniest and happiest times of our young television lives. The twins were, well, adorable and made us laugh out loud quite regularly, but they might need to explain this one.
You’ve probably heard the news that Justin Bieber appeared on an episode of CSI. What they didn’t tell you is that he looks exactly like a lesbian who got punched in the eye after losing a game of pool, and that he gets killed by the CSI cops. We’ve got spectacular visuals for both – after the break.
We’ve covered a bit about the local Clifton Shores series which is currently being filmed in Cape Town. But we haven’t told you that the villa the cast are staying in, is also available to you at 2oceansvibe Villas! Follow the link to check out the Clifton Shores villa on 2oceansvibe Villas!
So we’ve managed to get extra info on this Clifton Shores project and it looks like (thankfully) the promo that was spotted online was shot over 17 months ago and was supposed to be seen as a call for castings when the show was casting over a year ago. I’m told that the current show […]
There has been a lot of talk around town about this new MTV reality show they’re filming, called Clifton Shores – and, in particular, the promotional trailer. The trailer was available on YouTube for some time and we received emails confirming that it had vanished. Not to fear, we’ve managed to locate it. Follow the […]
Hundreds of skinny jeans walked around the CTICC on Saturday evening for the MK Awards – a first for Cape Town. But not everyone who attended thought it was awesome. Quote of the week: “Somewhere Jack Parow cannot be thinking that this mess was quite piele.”
After winning the award for best show in its category, you’d think M-Net would buy All Access a swish advertising billboard next to the N1, urging us all to watch this “award winning show!”. Instead rumours are surfacing that All Access and its demographically-flawed presenters might be cut.
This morning’s headlines: The Berlusconi case keeps getting creepier and Hustler announce they’re developing Harry Potter porn, entitled “This Ain’t Harry Potter”. Wow, the return of Beavis and Butt-Head sounds remarkably savoury. Yup, they’re back and they’ll still be watching Whitesnake tribute music videos. Oh, and Jersey Shore.
The South African Film And Television Awards (SAFTAS) honours the top performers and creative minds behind all the locally made shows you see on our television screens. Yet, in an ironic turn of events not one of the local channels will air these awards on an actual television.
Look, no company is without it’s awkward infant stages, but TopTV is starting to abuse that privilege. When they launched last year no one answered the phone at their call centre. Then all their customers received an unscrambled TV signal – even the ones who didn’t pay their subscriptions. The latest balls-up involves people paying for TopTV who aren’t even subscribed to the broadcaster.
Where were you when you first saw the epic that is Jurassic Park? How old were you? Well if you’re like me you’ll be fired up to hear that Spielberg is bringing a new series to us this year. And yes, those prehistoric beasts known as the dinosaurs will feature. Wicked.
It’s always great when your buddies are out there doing it in a big way, and I’m sure local creatives would also be interested to know that my buddy Colin Jeffery (The Advertising Guy – ex King James) is Creative Director at David&Goliath in LA, who shot the highly acclaimed “One Epic Ride” SuperBowl commercial […]
Local Cape Town band, I Scream And The Chocolate Stix are putting out what looks to be a fairly interestingly-shot reality TV show, with the working title, Making It. So says the YouTube description:
Jim W. Hawkins is just one of those guys who is either an eccentric with a love for school-girl cheerleading or a paedophile or a bit of both. But let’s give Jim the benefit of the doubt and say his is just one in a vast sea of crappy public-access TV shows.
A Gay awards show in the US has apparently not nominated certain TV shows for any prizes because said shows depict gay characters doing gay things. Such as being bitchy to each other, wearing make-up, talking about their sex lives, and being incredibly narcissistic.
After 21 seasons of the Hugh Hefner of reality shows, Survivor, a contestant is now being sued for allegedly leaking advance information about the show before its air date. If you are currently watching Survivor Gabon on our national broadcaster, then wait until 2016 before reading further.
Another season of Survivor South Africa is on its way – this time set in the Maldives. We bring you as much pre-release information that Mnet is willing to release, and a hunch that this coming season was so bitterly fought that at least one contestant quit production. Click through for more.
Ja, so basically I surprised even the great Silwood Cooking school, with my orgasmic roast summer vegetable dish. But I can’t take all the credit for it – as it was sent through from France, by Mother Dearest. Click link for the video (and recipe), in case you missed it. Fans of Idols’ Adeline will be quite pleased with this too..
I’m a huge fan of The Office, both Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchant’s original and the American rendition. Steve Carell’s recent announcement that he will no longer resume his role as Michael Scott genuinely forced moisture from my face. I was immediately cheered up by an awe-inspiring clip: a meeting between Michael and David Brent.
The producers of Idols South Africa have let Mara Louw go after three seasons of racist slur, violent outbursts, faux couture and drunken shenanigans. Boy, that was fun. She was the single judge who could always be counted on to do something unscripted and rash at around the 40 minute mark of every episode. What do we do now?
If someone had told you that the creator of the Simpsons, Matt Groening, and late night talk show king, David Letterman had parodied ANCYL[biters] president, Julius Malema, you would not have believed them.
We pulled out some vinyl in the 2oceansvibe Radio studio the other day and found ourselves playing We Will Rock You by Queen. My Friday co-host, Bruce, reminded me of the old classic Sun City TV commercial, which used the same song. My Twitter friends helped find the video. Check it out – epic!
JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA – 29 November 2010: Former Big Brother celebrity Bradford Wood at the Benoni Magistrate court in Johannesburg, South Africa, where he was granted bail for his alleged role in the death of several illegal miners on 29 November 2010. Wood and four others face murder charges after four illegal miners were shot […]
We’re certainly no stranger to the clustercuss that is Kanye West. We’ve recently discussed the banning of his questionable album cover and now we bring you the interview that caused his media trainer to quit after just three days on the job.
Jeremy Clarkson and the Top Gear team give us an exclusive look into what really goes into the making of The Stig. Come and take a tour around the Stig farm and get to see what really goes on behind the scenes as they reveal The New Stig.
Zombies are everywhere. They’re in your movies, in your video games, in your Jane Austen, in your head (in your head) – and then some brilliant young mind decided that we needed a zombie-based television series. Wonderful – way to keep those fresh ideas coming. Except The Walking Dead might be the franchise to put this whole ‘undead’ craze to rest for a while.
The BBC has a new show called The Trip, which features two of Britain’s greatest comedians, Gavin & Stacey’s Rob Brydon and Alan Partridge’s Steve Coogan. In this clip, the two try to outdo each other with their Michael Caine impressions and the result is further proof that no one does comedy quite like the Brits.
‘So, you’re in love with one of your friends, but she has a boyfriend and probably wouldn’t have sex with you anyway’ is pretty descriptive, as titles go. You probably don’t need much more to go by than that. It’s funny and you should watch it. The fireman here knows what I’m talking about.
