I've never seen the show. But I did really, really like that other show about vampires. (Little known fact: Awesome Club originally was Buffy Club. Hence the Tuesday night schedule.) So, I asked James if he thought I would like it, and he said yes.
But I was still sort of skeptical, although I couldn't tell you why. Maybe the ads are just too lush? Maybe it's the challenge for me of watching any HBO shows? Maybe it's that I missed the first two seasons and would have to catch up fast?
But then Kirk, hot off his successful recommendation of Frisky Dingo and therefore an expert on what makes good TV, pointed me to this video by Snoop Dogg, a tribute to one of the characters on the show. It is so over-the-top, I can't even bring myself to embed it.
Suffice it to say that it is more Snoop than Snoop ever was, a real simulacrum of Snoopdom. I have no idea how to take it. Does he know she's not a real person? And? "Yellow cars ain't fly, So hop in my jet." For real?
I say no thank you to the whole endeavor. Until I watch all the new Psychs and there is nothing else to do.
Oh, Snoop.
