DVD
A playboy congressman (Tom Hanks) supplements boozing and whoring with taking on the Soviet Union in the ’80s. Priorities, Chuck. NBCUni.com
Cloverfield
A mysterious monster attacks New York City while being filmed by some douchebag who forgot his tripod. Sickness bag included. Paramount.com
One Missed Call
It’s like The Ring, but with cell phones instead of videotapes and a bunch of characters you’d rather see just die, anyway. Enjoy. WarnerBros.com

Tim & Eric: Awesome Show, Great Job: Season 1
Possibly the weirdest series ever perpetuated on Adult Swim; you cannot be wasted enough to appreciate it. So, great job! AdultSwim.com
Totally Baked

BROADBAND
Dr. Steve Brule
One of the most consistent (relatively) bits on Tim & Eric: Awesome Show, Great Job is guest John C. Reilly’s Dr. Steve Brule, who presents the hilariously unhinged “Brule’s Rules,” questionable tips for healthier living. One of the best is “Last Resort Fighting” against “dirtbags” and “raper guys.”
Listen to Bill Mondays at 8 a.m. on X96’s Radio From Hell. Raper-guy blogging at BillFrost.tv.
