Exclusive Clip: Biker Battleground Phoenix

Tonight on the History Channel's Biker Battleground Phoenix, Yaffe, Kody and Jenkins put their reputations at risk as chaos descends at Arizona Bike Week, one of the largest builder/biker showcases in the country.

Check out the exclusive clip of tonight's episode "Respect" below:

Yaffe questions whether his SRT will succeed or fail.  In a never before done stunt, Kody and his fabricator Ricardo assemble a bike in front of an audience of his peers.  Can Kody prove he knows how to build and that he’s not a “fraud” or “poser” in the bike building world? Kody later surprises Ricardo by giving him the bike. When Ricardo finds out, he falls to his knees in front an audience of 5,000 as the crowd literally goes wild.

An anxious Yaffe finally reveals his top secret SRT on stage to thousands of onlookers. While the others builders give Yaffe props, Kody is unimpressed and shows it riding off while Yaffe is in the middle of his presentation.  Yaffe is outraged at Kody’s lack of respect and vows to retaliate.  Jenkins attempts to win the Baddest Bagger Competition for the second year in a row with his Custom Bagger. His crew works night and day but misses a major opportunity to show up on the main stage.


Watch all of the excitement and drama on Biker Battleground Phoenix tonight (July 29th) from 11:03-12:01AM ET only on the History Channel!

2014 Emmy Nominations!

It's that time again! The nominations for the 66th Emmys Awards are in!

While a lot of the categories are status quo for the most part (Breaking Bad, Downton Abbey), there are some surprises peaking in there.

True Detective scores nominations for series (for drama series not miniseries) and both of its stars gained lead actor nominations. Netflix picked up numerous nominations for Orange is the New Black, House of Cards, and even a lead actor in a comedy nomination for Ricky Gervais for his show Derek.

Let's also take a moment to celebrate the awesomeness of Kate McKinnon getting nominated for SNL.

This might be a tough year for Emmy voters as there have been some spectacular shows and performances this year.

Click the Rawr for the nominations and watch the Seth Meyers hosted Emmys on Monday, August 25 on NBC!

Blu-ray Review: American Horror Story - Asylum

Being a horror fan, American Horror Story should be just what the doctor ordered.  Well, the first season had a lot of highs, but more than enough lows, and the ending just left me a little underwhelmed.

So it was only with half hopes that Season Two would amount to anything more.  Thankfully, I was wrong.  Yes it is stilled riddled with cliches but it uses them to its advantage.

This season brings an entirely different story line but a lot of the same actors.  Jessica Lange, Evan Peters, and Zachary Quinto are all back and are joined by newcomers Sarah Paulson and James Cromwell, among others.

This time the setting takes us to Briarcliff Home for the Criminally Insane, or the titular Asylum and all matter of craziness ensues.

In the interest of spoilers and keeping things short I won't reveal any of the details suffice it to say, it's full of great scares and further showcases the excellent talents of its cast.  Asylum is in every way better than the preceding season (and Coven, season 3, is looking to be even better than this one).

The blu-ray set collects all 13 episodes from the 17-time Emmy nominated second season and some great behind the scenes features.  

Wonderfully creepy, brilliantly acted, and deliciously scary, American Horror Story: Asylum is the perfect way to spend some cold fall nights.    Ryan Murphy has really created a great show here and he is giving his cast such great material here.   Jessica Lange is a show stealer in every season and she is in rare form here.

Horror fans should eat this show right up and don't worry if you haven't seen the first season.  They're all independent of each other (at least so far) so you don't need to know what came before to enjoy this season.

American Horror Story: Asylum is available now!

Glee Is Ending

Ryan Murphy has confirmed that Glee will end after its upcoming sixth season.  He also knows how it will end despite having to alter his original plans after the untimely death of Cory Monteith.

Murphy said that the last season was going to be a Rachel/Finn storyline and that, "I always knew how it would end. I knew what the last shot was -- he was in it. I knew what the last line was; she said it to him. So when a tragedy like that happens you sort of have to pause and figure out what you want to do."

He also says the final episode will "honor" Cory Monteith.

What do you guys think?  Is it time for Glee to sing its way off into that great night?

Star Trek: The Next Generation Goes Blu!

Paramount has announced that Star Trek: The Next Generation will join the original Star Trek series on Blu-ray next year, just in time for the 25th anniversary.


More exciting is just how this is being done.  Complete edits and transfers from the original negatives, recreated special effects and 7.1 sound are just the beginning. We don't even know what the special features will be yet.  Every episode of the show will be presented in 1080p.

The full season sets will follow after a special Fan Favorite set called The Next Level which releases in January with a feature length version of "Encounter at Far Point," the series pilot, and two additional award winning episodes.

Gross, there's drool on my keyboard...
