Feist+Arcade Fire+Beck+David Cross Halloween Video (Awesome of the Day)
Back in October 2005, Vice Records released a song called “Do They Know It’s Hallowe’en?” to benefit UNICEF (and to poke fun at the patronizing attitude of “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”). The band that recorded it was called the “North American Hallowe’en Prevention Initiative,” and its list of members from the U.S. and Canada included:... read more

Since the show's nigh-criminal cancellation in 2006 (unfortunately, the Supreme Court refused to even hear our case), speculation on a possible film version of Arrested Development has been running for nearly as long as the series was on television.

Found in: Movies, NewsSeven Outrageous and Iconic David Cross Moments
They say the pen is mightier than the sword. If that's the case, David Cross's pen is mightier than a lightsaber or a railgun. The veteran stand-up comic has been using his sardonic wit to poke at society's sacred cows ever since he burst onto the L.A. comedy scene in the early '90s. Sacred or profane, it's all fair game to him. So, in honor of Cross's new book (and tour): here are but a few of his finest moments to date:... read more

We can't seem to leave Spike Jonze alone. We've been following the never-ending status updates on his upcoming film, Where The Wild Things Are, on a regular basis. And that's not even counting all of its warm-and-fuzzy (and slightly creepy) offshoots. We'd considered giving the director a rest, but after we heard he had teamed up with Arrested Development alums, David Cross and Will Arnett, to shoot a pilot for a U.K. sitcom, we caved.... read more

Waiting for the Arrested Development movie is getting near-unbearable at this point, but at least the Bluth family is keeping us entertained. Never one to lag behind, David Cross will be stepping out with Nick Diamonds (of Islands) to take over New York City's Knitting Factory for a "night of music, comedy and weirdness" in support of NY-based charity New York Cares.... read more

Found in: Movies, NewsArrested Development Stars Keep Making TV Better
For a period of 27 short months, TV was redeemed from all the cookie-cutter sit-coms and increasingly ridiculous reality shows that passed for network prime-time programming by the Bluth Family on Arrested Development. Since February 2005, we've had to rely on cameos from Bluths on other, less awesome TV shows (and in the case of Jeffrey Tambor's Twenty Good Years, much less awesome TV shows). Fortunately they've been many, especially lately:... read more
