I have been a bit under the weather since this weekend, but I survived thanks to Jerry Seinfeld’s web series, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.
Please watch. They are all hilarious and he’s got some really great guys and real stars on there. I was obsessed with Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks. (I’d heard of this web series, but it was brought back to my attention by the lovely Joanna Goddard of Cup of Jo. Also, this article and video about Jerry Seinfeld were fascinating. It’s amazing to see people work at their craft. As a blogger, seamstress, and DIYer, I love seeing how other creative people work on the things they love.)
The second most amazing thing is Plex. I do not really understand it (my head it still a little too stuffed up to understand anything), but I do know that Brian signed up for an account, and somehow now we can send videos from our smartphones or computer (I have a “Plex it!” button on my browser window now) to our Roku box, thereby allowing us to watch YouTube (or any internet) videos on our TV! It’s so awesome – it makes a web series like this much more enjoyable. And with all the HD video out now, even YouTube videos look great on TV (which is amazing! Remember the crappy quality of videos on dial-up? If you could even see the video, that is!)
And lastly, Happy Inauguration Day! I, of course, love Michelle Obama’s dress. I love most everything she wears. Plus, she’s a great role model for women and girls everywhere!
What have you been watching lately?
I LOVED 'Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee'! I don't even remember how I stumbled upon it, but I thought they were so good. I just heard that they are going to do another season!
ReplyDeleteAnother season is so exciting! I can't wait to watch them!
DeleteI read that NY Times article a few weeks ago and really enjoyed it too!
ReplyDeleteI was astonished at how much work he puts into some of his jokes!
DeleteMe too! Such intentionality. It made me want to watch the complete series of Seinfeld. Perhaps I'll just watch some youtube clips instead. :)
ReplyDeleteYouTube clips is definitely a good idea. ;)
