If House of the Dragon had been released in 2015 or 2016, it would have almost certainly been riding a tremendous train of hype, seeing it land as an instant success. Naturally, due to the budgets involved, it would have been a tall ask for HBO to fund both Dragon and Game of Thrones at the same time. After the latter crash-landed over its final two seasons, there was much skepticism around both at the release and throughout of House of the Dragon’s 2022 run.

Let me start by saying, if you’re looking for a Father’s Day gift that boldly celebrates the absolute worst qualities of fatherhood, then the Logan Roy #1 Dad T-Shirt is a hilariously perfect choice! Packed with irony and a hefty dose of dark humor, this handsome and comfy tee encapsulates the essence of the infamous Patriarch from HBO’s Succession.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Why on earth would I want my dad to wear a shirt that pays tribute to such a terrible father figure?” Well, my friend, that’s precisely the point! This shirt is like a playful middle finger to all the conventional notions of fatherly greatness. It’s a rebellious statement that says, “Hey, Dad, you may not be perfect, but at least you’re not as bad as Logan Roy!” Continue reading The Logan Roy #1 Dad T-Shirt: For the Dad Who Embraces the Dark Side of Parenting! →

Brazilian artist Eduardo Kobra continues to make the rounds in NYC, but this mural, entitled Black or White, of Michael Jackson’s Face as both a child and an adult actually went up some time ago, in late August of 2018. I have walked by it a bunch of times and that orange food truck is always there, so it’s hard to get a clear shot. Continue reading Michael Jackson Mural By Kobra →

Video Clip of The Week: GHXST, “Dead Town”

Leave a comment



Hey what’s up, I think I just coined the label for a new music genre: Death Grunge. Has it been taken yet? Find out and let me know, otherwise I’m claiming ownership. NYC based rock trio, GHXST’s new clip for “Dead Town” fits right in with the vibe of Video Clip or of the Week for reasons that take too long to talk about. But what I will offer is that this song sounds just like the haunting soundtrack to 3-minute movie of the same name, and it definitely would have been ideally suited for coloring the oh-so-darkening mood of HBO’s recently completed crime drama series True Detective. “All Night Dead Town.” I love it.
