Rhett & Link on IFC ~ COMMERCIAL KINGS

  THE "BIG SECRET" IS FINALLY PUBLIC

 

Coming Soon: IFC Renews The Onion News Network Plus So Much More

By Melissa Locker on 03/23/2011

Pardon me. We have some very exciting news and need everyone making that drumrolling sound on the table with pencils, pens, and hands and whatnot. All set? Okay, commence drumroll please. IFC is pleased to announce that we have renewed the Onion News Network for a second season. Or in the words of Brooke Alvarez, "The Onion News Network has allowed IFC to broadcast our programming for a second season. You're welcome, huddled masses." However you spin it, we are excited to have the best (only?) news network on cable on our air for another season. Now to borrow a line from the best late night infomercials, but wait, there's more!

In addition, IFC has green lit four new original series: "Commercial Kings" from Reveille, "Young, Broke & Beautiful" produced by 44 Pictures, "Whisker Wars" produced by Thom Beers' Original Productions, and "Bullet in the Face," created and written by Alan Spencer. But don't order yet, because for a limited time we are willing to double that offer and give you two Ginzu knives two more original series currently in development. We are working on an untitled variety show hosted by Comedy Death-Ray's Scott Aukerman and "Pointless" created by Ethan Berlin and Eric Bryant, which came to IFC through the New York Television Festival.

What are these brilliant new shows we will soon be offering? Well they won't whiten your whites or organize your closet, but we are pretty sure these shows will (sham) wow you.

Commercial Kings premieres Friday, June 24th at 10 p.m. Starring filmmakers and comedy duo Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal, this docu-comedy series follows the pair as they travel across America, developing and producing commercials for local businesses. The show's concept is based on Rhett and Link's popular website, www.ilovelocalcommercials.com, which has made the duo an internet sensation with over 80 million views on YouTube.

Before you load up the family roadster and head out to LALA-land for lunch at Viscious Dog be sure to print out these money saving coupons for the cleaning services at Presidential Carwash.  

 

That's a full $70 savings on the Van Buren Special Full Detail . . . WHAT A BARGAIN!

I started a discussion about this but there was no response so I'll try and ask it here in a more visited area. Will there be DVDs available to buy when the season ends? And what might be included on them?
