For those who don't like the format, or can't view videos or are fucking sick of looking at my face: have no fear. Regular format will return next week. At least, that's the plan. I can never be too sure what I'm going to do in this space in the future, because I have to sorta play everything by ear and tailor the medium to the message. Plus, you know, I gotta keep things fun for myself. The greatest thing about change is its lack of permanence.
PLEASE CONTINUE WITH THE VIDEOS WHENEVER POSSIBLE.
I cannot stress this enough.
That is all.

I love the format!! I don´t mind waiting a few hours!!!

Amazing video. I am weeping with laughter. Thank you, thank you!

OMG, BEST RECAP EVER!!!!!!!
Posted by: sazman | April 14, 2008 at 12:26 PM
So by the way you SO called it with the fireman being "casted", seeing as they all agreed to do a runway walk of their own, although in the recap I couldn't really tell which one had the "shelf of an ass" we're both pining for.

Lauren = BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN! Love!
And if I have to see Claire and her "nutritious breast milk" one more time... ugh.
Wonderful review of the review.

Thank you thank you thank you! I howled with glee at the ending.
The only way this could be better is if Winston and Rudy made cameos!

Wow, wow, wow. The Mariah clip was so perfect, especially for the first girl, Reddy McNasty, or whatever. I really enjoyed this.
Posted by: Brandon H | April 14, 2008 at 12:31 PM
UGH. When do we get an episode of ANTM where you make a cameo? You need to be a guest judge on this shiz.
Posted by: j | April 14, 2008 at 12:31 PM
Rich, don't listen to the haters. Your videos are the shiz.
Although, hating CAN be a lot of fun. HERE'S DOMINIQUE! PS, you in Whitney's bandanna just about made me spit out my drink.
Posted by: Jess | April 14, 2008 at 12:37 PM
Rich, you know what I've accepted? I will probably be fired for watching these at work. I don't care, keep the vidoes a-coming!
Posted by: Lea | April 14, 2008 at 12:40 PM
Hooray!
I don't know what the song you used actually is but I heard "I'm not chicken like" over and over.
Oh and the change of toys on the book shelf midway through rocks too!
Posted by: Brandy | April 14, 2008 at 12:41 PM
The videos are actually really funny. I've always enjoyed them. Even though the written posts are great, you sometimes lose the intonation and sarcasm you bring when you speak. More videos please.

I LOVED THAT YOU USED THAT CHICK I CAN NOT WAIT TO READ YOUR REVIEW!
Posted by: Nick | April 14, 2008 at 12:46 PM
I LOVE when you do video recaps. This one had me crying with laughter. I loved the blinking arrow pointing out Domanique's missing tooth in her slide-show. It was truly the perfect touch. BTW, that Spike t-shirt is the best!
Posted by: M | April 14, 2008 at 12:47 PM
Excellent recap!
P.S. Your name was on the screen during the 'Blog and Discuss' vh1 commercial during Rock of Love 2 last night! I saw it and was like, "Aww, Rich".
Posted by: Emily | April 14, 2008 at 12:48 PM
Well everyone else seems big on the video. But it is sooo much harder to sneak in during work hours. Killing me because I skipped watching the recap, knowing yours would be better!
Posted by: Ang | April 14, 2008 at 12:49 PM
"Iiiiiii'm not chicken that!" Which aren't the words, but that's what I heard. Enunciate, Mariah! I love your video recaps, Rich, they're so fucking random. The jump cuts, the stank freeze frames, everything.
Posted by: Joe M | April 14, 2008 at 12:56 PM
I hate to add to the chorus but your video recaps are freaking gold to me. I feared you would do no recap at all since this was a recap show so just finding something this morning was happiness.
BTW, VH1 was running an ad for their blog the other day and they mentioned your name in it. I felt such pride.
Posted by: Vanessa | April 14, 2008 at 12:57 PM
I've got a great idea. You should do the regular format AND a video every week! That way I can laugh twice as much and I'll have new jerk off material every week. Something to think about. Mull it over for a bit . . .
Posted by: Jose | April 14, 2008 at 01:07 PM
PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE WITH THE VIDEOS.

JP above - suck it.
Ha - and I listened to Lauren over and over. Plus, I think Fats actually says "Female General Mootilation" as it is moot. Is it really a moot point? I guess it is.
