October 13, 2008: Full steam ahead!

Putting together a new "Killing Time" with a new set. Today, we're shooting an episode and we'll be sitting on Sumo chairs provided for us by SumoLounge.com. These are the best damn bean-bag chairs in the world. They are tough (and my two dogs have tested it), very comfortable, and very shape-able. This isn't some old bean-bag chair. Sumo really put together something great.

Keep an eye out for "Killing Time" this week!

Getting on track: Sept. 30, 2008

If you noticed there's a new episode of "Dinosaurs: Before They Were Fuels" up today.

Revised schedule time!

  • Monday: Nothing!
  • Tuesday: ChannelFlip Web
  • Wednesday: Dinosaurs: Before They Were Fuels
  • Thursday: ChannelFlip Web

Where is "Killing Time" going? Will it be on Thursdays? Mondays like it originally was? Fridays? Not sure yet. I'm still getting my bearings with my new work schedule. Hang in there, folks.

WTF?

So, of course, when I announce a regular schedule forming, what happens? Delays.

Just great. So where do we stand, loyal reader/watcher/listener/breather? I'll tells you.

We just spun off of ChannelFlip Tech to become ChannelFlip Web and will be on twice a week. The first episode was released yesterday and the next will be tomorrow.

I've also gotten a position with Gadgetell.com. I am their new editor. This comes with a lot of responsibility and requires plenty of time. What does this mean for FiniteComedy?

It means that I've got some scheduling to hammer out. My goal is to bring is to bring you regular programming. CFW will be regular this week. The Dino-Show (as we call it backstage) is returning.

Expect everything to get back to normal very soon. Dinosaurs will be back next week. Killing Time will be back in a week or two. CFW will be continuing. Keep an eye out.

September 9, 2008: Regular Schedule Forming

Hello, folks. Looks like we're hitting our stride. Currently, we're producing three new episodes per week with this two-man operation. Let's take a look at the schedule:

But wait, there's more! We're going to turn up the productions! We're aiming to have "Finite Comedy Presents" and "Factory Tour" on a monthly schedule pretty soon.

August 27, 2008

Today I'm editing down an episode of "Killing Time." We've got director of "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon," Scott Glosserman and some cast members from the movie for a great interview. There's so much good material, I don't know what to do with all of it.

So here's how the rest of the week looks:

    Schedule
  • Thursday: Killing Time with Scott Glosserman
  • Friday: ChannelFlip Tech

Also, coming up is a new episode of "Factory Tour." See what happens when Iyaz and Rob try to shoot an episode of "ChannelFlip Tech" in a new location. I know I've said that we would have live footage of building the new studio and that is still going to happen. I've just got to set up a camera in a fixed location so you can watch us build the new "Killing Time" set. That's right, "Killing Time" is getting a set! Enough writing, back to work for me.

August 26, 2008: Editing as fast as I can.

I'm working to get "Dinosaurs: Before They Were Fuels" episode 2 out the door! It should be done today. Stay tuned.

August 18, 2008

Great things are happening. This past weekend, Rob and I shot four new episodes of ChannelFlip Tech. Whether you know it or not, we like to create a backlog of episodes in case of scheduling conflicts, technical problems or whatever else could pop up.

This week is going to be a little different.

We're premiering a new show on Tuesday called "Dinosaurs: Before They Were Fuels." This show focuses on dinosaur news. What's a show like that doing on FiniteComedy.com? Well, the show is still meant to entertain you. This isn't a dry, classroom lecture. We're going for a "Bill Nye The Science Guy" feel. Also, for some reason, there is no regular dinosaur video podcast out there. I wanted to watch one, but there were none. Now, I'm making one.

"Killing Time" will have a rant this Thursday that should irritate some. We're not trying to irritate, it just happens sometimes.

"ChannelFlip Tech" will be available on Friday as usual. I don't like to give away show topics for CFT, so come back and be surprised.

    Still coming up in the coming weeks:
  • Live streaming of tapings and building the new studio.
  • HD Editions of ChannelFlip Tech
  • Another new program -- again, we're keeping it under wraps until it's ready.

August 12, 2008: What's going on today?

Yes, there has been a lack of vlogs for your consumption. I'm going to try the good old-fashioned writing method.

What's coming up on FiniteComedy.com this week:

  • Tuesday: "Killing Time: Batman 3"
  • Thursday: "Killing Time: Watchmen Trailer"
  • Friday: "ChannelFlip Tech"

You know how we really liked that "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon" movie? Something is coming to "Killing Time." What do those sentences have to do with each other? You'll see.

Also have you ever wanted to see us do a taping of our shows? You may get the chance -- and we're not just talking about live streaming. More details to come.

Upcoming stuff:

  • HD Editions of ChannelFlip Tech -- exclusively here on FiniteComedy.com
  • Experimental live streaming of a taping
