Around the Tubes vol. XLVIII


I have gotten a plethora of cool press releases have been flooding my inbox recently that you may find interesting. This post will include blurbs on Community, The Sing-Off, Friday Night Lights, and the summer schedules for TNT and TBS.

- If you watch Community, you probably cannot get enough of Starburns. If so you are in luck because in the show’s very first webisodes, he is front and center as Senior Chang has assigned him and Abed for some video homework assignment that not surprisingly has very little actual Spanish in it. Check out part one below and head over to NBC.com for the second part.



- For those that watch last season’s of The Sing Off and thought to yourself me and my buddies can do that (and live near New York, Nashville, Chicago, and Los Angeles), head over to Sing Off Casting.com to see how you can audition.

- One more week until the season premiere of Friday Night Lights. For those who cannot wait, check out an excerpt below. You can also get ready for the premiere by watching the final four episodes over at NBC.com:



- TNT recently renewed Southland (which will return early 2011 with ten episodes) and now it is getting ready for it “100 Days of Drama” with two new shows (in bold) on the docket. Here is the schedule and the premiere dates:
