The Beach Boys composed the anthem, singing, "If that ain't enough to make you flip your lid, just one more thing"”I got the pink slip, Daddy." In California, "the pink slip" was the DMV's proof of title to the car. When hot-rodders drag-raced "for pinks," the winner took home the loser's car"”free and clear. Often deadly, always flagrantly illegal, in the Beach Boys' era, racing for pinks held at least as hallowed a place in the So Cal culture as long boards, buffalo plaid, and blondes. Speed Channel thoughtfully has reprised the winner-take-all drags on "Pinks" and "Pinks, All Out." "Pinks" does not provide a venue for "rice rockets" a la remakes of and sequels to The Fast and the Furious. Only American muscle cars need apply, and the drivers race by the "old school" rules"”no electronic timing or photo finishes. Usually burning up the quarter mile at closed, legal drag strips, competitors put the pedal to the metal until one wins three of five races and claims the precious pink.
Every week on "SuperCars Exposed" TV show Tanner Foust and Louise Brady take eager viewers into the turbo-charged, jaw-droppingly pricey world of exotic cars. "SuperCars Exposed" TV series make it clear, however, how belittling and insulting it is to call these works of art "cars" or "automobiles." The names--Ferraris, Porsches, Lamborghinis"”are eponyms for masterworks of metal and internal combustion. Clearly, it is good to be Tanner Foust and Louise Brady. The list of "SuperCars Exposed" episodes reads like a list of adolescent boys' fantasies: Tanner Foust pilots a Lamborghini Gallardo down the California coastline; then, Tanner Foust puts the petal to the metal in an Audi R8, flying over the Alps and then gives drifting lessons as he pushes a Ferrari 599 GTB down the Autobahn. Taking time out from driving for a little serious wrenching, Tanner Foust devotes some time to exposing the SuperCars, learning how to tune the newest top-of-the-line Porsches. Then, he drives an Aston Martin around Nurburgring. Finally, Louise Brady gets to do something besides narrate and comment, taking a turn behind the wheel of Mercedes-Benz performance cars.

Ever wonder how to build something that is sustainable and won't hurt the environment? Building a new home and want to keep it "green" without costing twice as much as conventional construction? The prospects are endless and money can be saved while improving the health and comfort of residence when planning and designing then building that dream home the right way. Building Green is not only a concept but a religion that has a growing following around this great planet we call earth. Initially the green approach was far more expensive than more traditional methods of construction but with better ideas and improved building materials and tools we find that the manufacture of sustainable, non-polluting, environmentally safe homes and business buildings is not only possible but also the preferred method that takes us into the 21st century and well beyond. Being able to watch these construction projects on TV, as they go from concept through completion, helps get the idea across that we must alter some of the old school methods and incorporate new ideas into the blue prints to keep our world safe and healthy for future generations.

Drawn in retro-sixties comic book style, rendered irreverent and ironic by exceptionally good writing from "Simpsons" renegade Devin Clark, "Ugly Americans" TV show made its debut on Comedy Central during March, 2010. Matt Oberg lends his vocal stylings to the main character, Mark Lilly, harried social worker at the "Department of Integration," the all-purpose welfare agency for the citizens of a parallel-universe New York liberally populated with demons, zombies, wizards, monsters, and other chimerical creatures. Up-and-coming comedienne Natasha Leggero, one of Chelsea Handler's coterie, gives voice and life to Callie Maggotbone, Mark's immediate supervisor and sometimes lover. Callie claims distinction as the succubus daughter of the Devil and a human mother; not surprisingly, she is prone to extreme mood swings. Newcomer to the big-bad city, Mark, an intrepid optimist and wanna-be do-gooder, remains barbarously untutored in the ways of his city's multi-species immigrants, and his mistakes naturally multiply into comic misadventures. Hardly Saturday-morning kiddie fare, "Ugly Americans" deals as directly and explicitly with characters' bizarre sexual proclivities as with their sociopathy.
