KRAKOOM! 

SAY IT AIN’T SO! LA TIMES DECLARES REAPER “ON THE BUBBLE”

For those of you unfamiliar with hackneyed, Hollywood cliches, that means it could sink or swim, it’s on the fence, it could go either way, they could take it or leave it, it’s six of one, a half dozen of the other, what goes up, must come down, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, and, of course, a penny for your thoughts. 

What that also means is that YOU, the loyal Reaper enthusiasts and proud Bret fans have to BOMBARD the CW with emails and letters and phone calls or anything else you think might be convincing.  We’re not suggesting a Jericho-like barrage of peanuts to be sent to the CW offices, but perhaps a Jericho-like barrage of peanuts sent to the CW offices would do the trick.  Only instead of peanuts (also hackneyed) how about something a little more original and a lot more appropriate for the show.  We’re thinking… socks! 

If you’re interested, here is the CW’s address:

Oh, and here’s a link to the LA Times article.

‘REAPER’ SCORES MONSTROUS 10.4 RATING AND 16 SHARE TO EASILY BEAT EVERYTHING ELSE ON TV!

Okay, that was American Idol, but Reaper still did well, beating its lead-in, Beauty and the Geek, by more than 800,000 viewers.  Could those viewers all be because of that banner at the top of Krakoom?  We like to think so.

STARTING TODAY, YOU HAVE TO ‘DEAL’ WITH IT!

Calling All Bret Fans! (In Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, Boston, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Las Vegas, Dallas, and maybe New Orleans.)

The long awaited release of ‘Deal,’ starring Burt Reynolds and Krakoom’s own Bret Harrison is finally upon us.  If you live in one of the above metropolitan areas, make sure you check it out in theaters this weekend.  The success of the opening week is going to determine if the movie spreads to other markets, so you have to see it this weekend.  But don’t take our word for it.  Here’s the film’s director, Gil Cates, Jr., explaining the “sitch”:

“”DEAL”, starring Bret Harrison, Burt Reynolds, Shannon Elizabeth and Charles Durning, will be released by MGM this Friday, April 25, in select cities (Los Angeles San Francisco, Las Vegas, Chicago, Dallas, New Orleans, Boston, and Philadelphia).  The film also features World Poker Tour and World Series of Poker stars Joseph Hachem, Phil “The Unabomber” Laak, Jennifer Tilly, Antonion Esfinaidari, Chris Moneymaker, Greg “Fossilman” Raymer, Mike Sexton, Vince Van Patten and more…

If the movie has a good opening weekend it will expand to more theatres and into more cities across the country.  If it does not… it’ll be on DVD within a few months :).  Unfortunately NY is not one of the opening cites, but for those of you in the east coast who have been looking for an excuse to have a clam roll or a cheese steak, now’s your chance!

Please spread the word if you live or if you know people who live in these cities.  Again, opening weekend is the most important…

Thanks!

Gil

EWEEKLY REAPER RECAP LEADS TO DISTURBING REVELATION!

In the March 28, 2008 issue Of Entertainment Weekly, we stumbled upon this:

Which led us to notice this: 

And if you’re not seeing it, maybe this will help:

Anyone else smell a ‘Burbs remake?

BRET SHILLS FIRST PRODUCT!

Go on over to www.ConcealedCabinet.com/Testimonials to see Bret pimping The Concealed Cabinet by i-innovators.  Thanks to this clever medicine cabinet hidden behind a picture frame door, Bret can now hide Jessica Simpson’s Proactive, Wilford Brimley’s Quaker Oats and Bret Harrison’s self respect.  Just kidding!  This product rules.  Plus, according to his testimonial, he didn’t receive a cent.

BRET MAKES BEENY BOPPERS COOL AGAIN!

Okay, that’s a lie.  But he was forced to wear a pair of them (AKA Deely Boppers — look ‘em up) in the November 2, 2007 issue of Entertainment Weekly in an article spotlighting Reaper as one of “5 New Shows to Watch.”  I hope being famous is worth it.
