    I can't get the video to embed. Whatever. Trust me. Click that link. This has serious potential.

    "The dream of the 90's is alive in Portland!"

    Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

    The show premieres Friday, January 21st at 10:30 EA on IFC.

    All these people on Facebook are acting like this show is a compliment... it's not.

    I think it's pretty clear that they're making fun of the people in this city.

    I think it's all good fun. There's no reason to be insulted.

    Oh I'm not insulted because they're not talking about me... BUT.... they are talking about all the wackos who are moving here (like barfo).

    I think that is not the point at all. It's totally endearing. "You tease the one you love the most."

    I guess that depends on whether you really think Jesus rose from the grave... otherwise he was just a dead guy in a cave. Not really something to laugh at if you're Jesus.

    The guy in the plaid shirt who leans in and sings with the guy half way thru went to HS with us! Funny guy, I'll have to ask him if he will be on the show to.
