Afternoon Meme: Everybody Loves Marshall, Adam Lambert Sings, plus Colbert and Spelling Are Richer Than You

OK, I love it when you guys tip me to stuff that not only is cool, but is something you know I'll love. MJ sent me this promo called "Everybody Loves Marshall" from Showtime's The United States of Tara. Marshall is my favorite part of the show, and I love that he got his own remix to promote the upcoming season. Also, from the teaser - who's your buddy, Marshall?

Yesterday, Michael Jensen made our feelings about High Society on The CW well known. Plus the fact that it has a despicable gay PJ Calderon. Well, according to our cousins at NewNowNext the show will also feature Malik So Chic, who was profiled here by New York Mag. Kill me now.

Daniel Radcliffe's MTV interview keeps trickling out. Here he tells us that they're going all Benjamin Button on the cast to get that flash forward scene at the end of Deathly Hallows.

Jersey Shore continues to butcher Oscar nominated films. For the record, I've never watched an episode of Jersey Shore, but I'm fascinated with the media blitz that they're on. First, Snookie takes on Inglorious Basterds:

Next, Pauly D takes on Avatar. This is the best of the bunch because there's a great joke, plus Pauly never speaks and appears shirtless.

This guy can't stop hitting himself. The pervert in me wonders if he's double-jointed all over.

You're supposed to clip the ignition key to your jacket on a snowmobile to prevent this. Otherwise, it's just insult to injury.

Miami Medical looks to be another generic hospital drama, just set in a sunny location for a change. Which brings up the question - why are hospital dramas always set in cold cities with reputations for bad weather? Chicago Hope, ER, Greys Anatomy, Mercy. The song here is by JD Fortune, who won the only reality show I ever loved, Rock Star INXS.

I have no idea what Birdemic: Shock and Terror is - IMDB says 2008, Trailer Addict says February 27, 2010. It's just soooooo bad it might be good.

Caprica: Stylz is a behind-the-scenes look at how they do the wardrobe for the series, which mixes robots and FTL space travel with antique telephones and fedoras. What really caught my eye was the box labeled "black leather codpieces" on the shelf - which episode is that in, and who wears it? Are there two, one for Sam and one for Nestor?

I've never watched Kell on Earth, but I already don't like it. Here we have Kelly and her gay assistant Andrew crashing a date with Robyn Berkley's assistant is on with a cute boy. Andrew - this is a Bro Code violation.

Sarah Palin was on The Jay Leno Show last night, and as always, she was deceptively charming. I'm not an expert on religion, but isn't a disarming charm a characteristic of the anti-Christ? Jay softballed the whole thing, then wrote a comedy routine for her to read since she's going to have a talk show.

Need a palate cleanser? Adam Lambert performed "Sleepwalker" on the same show. His vocals were great, and he looked slim and sexy. I have no idea how he pulls off the eye makeup, because I never could. MTV observes that while Jay and Shaun White come onstage at the end to shake his hand, Sarah Palin is noticeably absent, so she still can't prove she's met a gay person.

Ugly Americans is something new from Comedy Central. I think it's supposed to be about zombies and monsters among us, literally. It's animated, and it's basic cable, but depending on your work environment, you may want to wait until later. NSFW?

Stephen Colbert trotted out his Colbert Platinum last night, and complained that it was unfashionable for exceedingly rich people to indulge their need to waste massive amounts of money. It made me laugh more than it should have.

Speaking of conspicuous wealth, Candy Spelling will take you inside The Manor, her 50,000 sq. ft. home that she's trying to sell so she can move into the smaller, $47 million condo.  It features ll the basics, like a media room, bowling alley, three gift wrapping rooms, and jelly beans color matched to each room.

Finally, in the next installment of Electric Spoofaloo that I like, but no one else notices, we have the lost Fran Drescher audition for Avatar. I had assumed that it was a comedian impersonating Fran's distinctive voice, but in this case, it's actually Fran spoofing herself.
