NO WAY! I actually watched the first season, bad reality competitions are a guilty pleasure of mine. I don't really know how he would work on the show, at least of what I have seen of his stuff.
I don't know about the quality of art on the show, but Simon de Pury is pretty damn cool. If you watch closely I think in the first episode, you can glimpse a vinyl toy on his office desk (and the rest is very spartan). Simon de Pury. No kidding. Congrats to the Sucklord, very interested to see what he comes up with.
This is probably the only thing that would get me to watch this show...fuck Jerry Saltz. wait until those of you who haven't met Sucklord get a glimpse.
I managed to render Sucklord speechless at SDCC - and cant for teh life of me remember how or why. I just recall he was lost for words cos I outsucked him. Musta been one of the manic highs (usually followed by manic low). I'll have to check out this show...if only to see De Prury - wasn't he the guy whose auction house auctioned easy to find SecretBase figures to clueless punters for 5 figures...lol
Simon De Pury is hilarious "I got my first erection from Renoir !" He's got two huge Gojiras in his office. quote from the NY post: "His travels and love of art have resulted in his own eclectic collection. In addition to owning pieces by some of his favorite artists, including Kelley Walker, Rembrandt and Juergen Teller, de Pury boasts an impressive set of ceramic mugs in the shape of cartoon characters. “Batman or Superman, you know? You used to be able to buy those in airports — now you can only buy them on eBay,” he says. They go well with de Pury’s expertly assembled assortment of Godzilla figures and skateboards."
Yes, it was Phillips De Pury who did the auction...his place. The open set of chromed SB figures sold for $10,000 with the buyer's premium....while we still had all of them for sale at TT for $60 a pop sealed in bags! awesome. Also, according to the info on the upcoming season...KAWS is going to be a guest judge...heh.
Kaws as guest judge? I wonder which identi-kit reality show judge he will play? Will it be the spacey Paula, the OG Randy Dawg or the douchey Simon character? Actually I see Kozik as more of the Simon character, reprising his Toypunks know-it-all-grouchey old man routine...nnnn.... Classic?
When Sucklord said at SDCC something like "...Then they were lined up 800 deep for that fucking Andrew Bell guy..." I almost sprayed milk accross the room. Everything he says is solid gold. Should be HUGELY entertaining.
I'm so psyched about this. I watched the first season and it was pretty good (but I love bravos contest shows) and they always keep the "weirdo" people for a while atleast because they're interesting. So no matter how he does I'm sure we'll have plenty of episodes to enjoy him in. but I think he'll do great, fuck yea sucklord!
This isn't sucklords first go on reality TV. the dating show he did was fucking awesome, and his mother was funny as well. The glowing jar of piss... gross but funny I need to watch this, stoked for Morgan, he is made for this !
I'm curious to know if they refer to him on the show as Morgan or as Sucklord... ha! And he also make a cameo on Conan O'Brian- back when Triumph the Insult Comic Dog goes to visit the nerd waiting in line for one of the SW prequels. The camera pans by him in his Sucklord costume.
I enjoyed the first season although I didn't always appreciate the "art" that some people created. Some of those people had giant egos and crazy ideas. I was hoping that there would be a second season. This looks like it's gonna be awesome.
it's called learning to climb, if evolution means hitting your head all the damn time line me up to be a monkey but then again I take up space going the other direction
