Normally I wouldn't care because I don't carry around vhs tapes, but I made this card that you guys can print & laminate in case you are stopped by the @LAPDHQ for buying @greggturkington's video tapes #oncinema pic.twitter.com/y7qBpY1Q47

you'd think a police station would have the resources to have wikipedia

ON SAFETY

"I'm not even going to put that shell back in there."

I thought the whole series (or at least Tim) might come to an end there for a minute.

Chekov would've been disappointed with that little subplot.

I figured Toni > Gregg > Tim in order of likeliness to get shot

But also that it’s more likely to be setting up Tim’s next major obsession, and Toni’s arc of trying to manage / cope with it next season

Tim telling Toni she wasn’t allowed to talk to Gregg gave me chills

Bearing in mind that Gregg fronted a metal band of "suicide survivors" from 1992 - 2001, anyone feelin' that Tim's "accident" was an abandoned suicide attempt?

Yep.

Definitely intended to be a possibility in the viewer’s mind.

Tim spending like a full minute recklessly demonstrating the method by which he nearly killed himself was just the perfect blend of hilarity and terror.

Here is @greggturkington’s “Search for Mark” video that he sent in tonight. He was out in LA looking for Mark while @timheidecker and Toni sat at home doing nothing. #OnCinema pic.twitter.com/GamPjXSAaM

LOL

Someone told me I wasn’t qualified to clean a toilet let alone host a TV show and that I was a worthless piece of [bleep] but me and my fans are saying bye to the haters and keeping it #positive! #ThatWasCold https://t.co/vqGOhCveL3

so I can't figure out how the Oscar specials are broadcast, the Adult Swim streaming channel doesn't have them all... are these broadcast/streamed live? Is the 2020 one scheduled for Oscar night? Or did I miss something?

I guess there was some kind of telethon...?

they are broadcast live on youtube, adult swim doesn't fund/broadcast them, the telethon is to fund the special

Anyone go to the Amoeba LA event earlier this week?

oh actually i googled and they did stream the oscar special on adult swim the last 2 years

not sure how they're gonna handle it this year with Tim & Eric on tour

i really hope they do it bc it's the only reason for oscar to exist

Got the book as an xmas gift. In case it wasn't clear (and it wasn't to me until I actually flipped through the thing) it's basically the entire On Cinema saga in print form. For those interested.

Any picks for Oscar this year? I’d say Tolkien except that it didn’t include nearly as many appearances by the hobbit gang as I expected. Only solid pick I can think of is Rambo: Last Blood

xps. they don't have a show that day, they'll be in the US, and they had the telethon already. I'm sure it's going to happen

yessss

I didn’t think they could top the 2018 Oscar Special but the 2019 one was even more incredible so I’m really looking forward to this

2019 was genuinely unhinged. Not enough props paid to Heidecker's chops, as he seemed like he might've legitimately tipped over the edge.

so did Gregg tbqh!

Walter Brennan stars in this...really quite a career, sort of the Joe Estevez of the 1930s...his character, coincidentally, named Kingman

Forgive the thread spam, but I wanted to note that this show's 2019 season is nominated in the 2019 ILX TV poll:

ILX's Best Television of 2019 Poll / VOTING AND CAMPAIGNING THREAD / Voting Ends January 31

If you like this show and you'd like to see it have a good showing in the poll (running in February) all you need to do is submit a ballot including it and your other favorites (4 minimum, 25 maximum, organized by your favorite to least favorite) to forksclovetofu at gmail by end of day today. It'll take five minutes; get to it!

I was worried they might not do the oscar special this year due to tim being on tour, but i guess it's happening

y'all know that as little as 2 years ago this exact same IRL logistical scenario has happened before, and it resulted in some of the most painfully awkward and insane performances in the series to date?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMIQEWdPaRA

sorry, that was 3 years ago.

The sleeper hit of the saga right there

Tim confirmed on Twitter that he's actually gonna be in this one

the Our Cinema special had some really funny bits but jfc I would not watch that again

tim's phone calls on the our cinema special were so good

Axiom calling Gregg worried that Tim had killed himself and Gregg asking if he had any picks for best actor is definitely one of my favorite parts of the whole series

guys, I think I might be coming down with a touch of Oscar Fever

Pouring some bub-lehh rn tbh

its Christmas time in tinsel town

Let’s explain my T&E Tour/Oscar Special travels: Saturday night double in DC / Sunday Morning Flight to LA / OSCAR SPECIAL / Sunday night red eye to Philly/ Monday night Philly show. I do this for YOU!
