Random Acts of Ali Larter: so much competition

Ali Larter in Jay and Silent Bob

It seems with Ali off busy doing other things, there’s a mass outbreak of randomness among people wanting to get in on her act.

Randomly, Katherine Heigl has been smoking a metal cigarette. It even glows red at the end when you inhale.

Amber Heard, currently tipped to be 2011’s “next big thing” thanks to her starring roles in The Rum Diary with Johnny Depp and in NBC’s pilot for the Mad Men-esque Playboy, has been getting very random, not only acting as Grand Marshall at a Nascar rally (“Gentlemen, start your engines”) – as you do – but donating no fewer than five pairs of the “Daisy Dukes” she wore in Drive Angry 3D to various online news sites to give away in competitions.

But it’s this news reporter who probably has been the most random this week by spontaneously inventing an entirely new language while on-air (fingers crossed, she’s okay).


Have you seen Ali Larter or one of her sub-contractors acting randomly? If so, let us know and we’ll tell everyone about it in “Random Acts of Ali Larter“

What have you been watching this week (w/e February 11)?

Archer season two

It’s “What have you been watching this week?”, your chance to recommend to friends and fellow blog readers the TV that they might be missing or should avoid – and for me to do mini-reviews of everything I’ve watched this week. Since we live in the fabulous world of Internet catch-up services like the iPlayer and Hulu, why not tell your fellow readers what you’ve seen so they can see the good stuff they might have missed?

Regular recommendations; Cougar Town, House, Modern Family, Royal Pains, Southland, 30 Rock and Top Gear

This week’s backlog: Archer; Community; Episodes; Outcasts; and Royal Navy Caribbean Patrol. One day, I’ll get round to The Killing as well. Stupid BBC4 and it’s two episodes a week stunt scheduling.

After the jump, mini-reviews of last week’s Archer and Community as well as this week’s Being Human, Being Human (US), Chuck, Shameless, Smallville and Spartacus: Gods of the Arena.
