Talk of the Town - 
by B-side
Once upon a time, a little blog called TVgasm surfaced on the internet as a way for a few guys to entertain their friends with snarky recaps. 19 months later, the site has blossomed into a veritable juggernaut of international splendor and intrigue -- a community where people all around the world gather to make fun of reality stars and Mischa Barton. And so we're very proud to announce that this week, the site has now accrued 30,000 comments. Granted, about 95% of those comments seemed to have come from Laguna Beach fans, but we're still happy that all of you anonymous people out in cyberspace have decided to park yourself here and share your thoughts.
As for lucky comment #30,000? It comes from "iluvkobebryant" on the most recent Gauntlet 2 post:
Is it me or did Alton become about ten times more jacked in the past thirty seconds?Alton is so damn hot!!!! He is my reason for watching the show. I think we should all start calling him "Hot Buns Alton". The man is F-I-N-E!!
Now that's what I call a legacy!

"Now that's what I call a legacy!" I couldn't contain myself when reading this luckily I am in the office alone. B-Side you are truly a genius. And Ed-Hill you don't fall far behind cuz your Guna comment started me up again. Viva TVGASM!!!

How awesome is that the 30,000th comment is about some man's hot ass!! A few weeks back, the site overflowed with people getting on to check some Mischa Barton titty and now, a milestone highlighted with some ass. GO TVGASM!!

The funniest recaps, posted in a timely manner...No "country club" attitude...No having to consult the Chicago Style Guide before leaving a comment...TVgasm, quite simply, rules all ass. And I say that without pity for the competition.

Jash, are you sorry you weren't entertained? YOU WILL BE!!!
Posted by: B-Side | December 14, 2005 2:31 PM(#12 of 44)
Truth be told Jash, we just dont see you as a friend.

Jash is an enemy of all things gasm. An "other", if you will.
Jash you are a dirty whore.

Go T-Gasm, it's ya birthday!
Go T-gasm it's ya birthday!
Love you like a play cousin.
Stop hating on LB fans.
I think the 30,000 person should get a prize-you should give that person one of each of the DVD's you are giving away.
Can't wait 'till the next 30,000!
Posted by: joslyn | December 14, 2005 3:03 PM(#17 of 44)
Wow - now we FINALLY know what B-Side looks like. Kinda makes you wonder why he isn't recapping The Golden Girls.
Great job TVGASM - first 30,000 then THE WORLD!
Btw, when you chart your milestones don't forget the vid ya'll put together of BB's Jase and Scott.

I thought that was EdHill. He makes me purr like a kitten even if he does look like a Lady Husky fan.
At any rate.. good job y'all. Don't forget, none of this caviar room service and assistants to cut your filet mignon. I love you just the way you are.
Posted by: Lizardqueen | December 14, 2005 4:02 PM(#19 of 44)
Oh Lizardqueen, you make me blush. You better stop before we become TVgasm office gossip.
And if anyone is taht curious to see a pciture of me, here I am working on my blog where I talk about how I love the NRA, Bush and Jesus. In that order.

Good job guys! Congrats! I hope that someday I can be as great as the other regular comment-makers on The 'Gasm.

tvgasm pulled anne b. davis out of storage to sit & pose in honor of #30,000?
awesome!
one question...
where's sam the butcher & his bizarre sexual-meat references?
"come on alice, i've got all the sausage your mouth can fit in the back. the brady kids can watch if ya want."
"oh sam, please for the love of christ, ask me to marry you and you can shove any kind of meat anywhere you want."
that's so hot.
**lost is new tonight, right?**
--hello?
-who is this?
--dad?
-WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: ProphetOfRage | December 14, 2005 4:19 PM(#22 of 44)
Sorry Rage - Lost isn't new until January.
Oh EdHill, I used to find you merely amusing, entertaining and fun - but now having seen your photo - I think I'm falling in lurv. You could be the Steven to my Kristen, the Sawyer to my Kate, the Lana to my Clark... hehe
JK LizardQueen - I wouldn't go all Alex on your Jason. He's all yours.

TVGasm rocks, and I am so glad I found this site a while back.
Jash you suck as badly as the Weavers, Cappy, and Wes all rolled into one.
GO GASM!

Funny story.
I thought Jash's name rang a bell so I did a google search consisting of "Jash" and "TVGasm" and I got back 5 links. 4 were basically the post where Jash and B-side took pictures of Victoria and Jonathan at an airport, and the fifth link was a collection of hand job videos.

EdHill, get your mind out of the gutter. Kittens are sweet and innocent, no? Lemme tell ya a little story... If a guy is funny, I'm talking funny, it doesn't matter if he is a geriatric, sweater vest wearing, couch potato with a cirulation problem.

I'd like to say that I am so honored to be the 30,000th comment on fabulous tvgasm. I want to thank you all for your support!! I don't need any prizes, all I request is that Alton from The Gauntlet 2, now be referred to as "Hot Buns Alton" in all blogs. That would be truly the best prize. Thank you and I love you all!! :)

This time last year, I was pregnant, worried, and could not sleep for looking like the Lusitania. I believe I stumbled on the 2004 coverage of the Tonys with Hugh Jassman early one morning and the rest is history. God bless tvGasm, my baby is happy, healthy and snark ready. Jash just doesn't get it. Whadda maroon!

Does anyone know when The 4400 will return??

I don't remember how I found out about this blog, but let me tell you, it has saved my life. I have been out of the US for 3 months and didn't know how I'd survive without Laguna Beach.(Sidenote: Also nip/tuck and Gilmore Girls, both of which you all do not review. Sadly, I had to find other blogs for those shows. ) Instead of channel surfing and watching embarassing reality tv, I merely READ Real World and Making the Band recaps. Surely, reading them must be more intellectual than actually watching them. Now when I go back home, I can pretend that television is so passe and that I am "over" American TV because I "survived" 3 months without it. Thank you tvgasm for making me a pseudo- European pretentious snob!
Posted by: ACLovesTVGASM | December 15, 2005 5:36 AM(#32 of 44)
I too don't remember how I stumbled upon TVgasm, but boy am I glad I did. Countless hours have been wasted reading recaps and the thousands of witty comments.
Sometimes when I'm home I have to restrain myself from going to the site so that I leave myself a pleasant surprise in the morning at work.
Thanks TVgasm for making my work day go faster!
Posted by: megan | December 15, 2005 6:37 AM(#33 of 44)
Congrats guys! This is the only site that gets me through my work days. I {heart} you all.
Who will have the dubious distinction of re-capping '24' - the best show ever! I can't wait!
Posted by: ruplub | December 15, 2005 6:42 AM(#34 of 44)
Congratulations! TVGasm makes my life complete. I pay more attention to your recaps than emails from my mother. That's not saying much, but true nonetheless.
TVGasm forever!
Posted by: happy_gal | December 15, 2005 8:23 AM(#35 of 44)
This is all well and good (just kidding, I am very excited for you TVgasm, you lured me in with your Laguna recaps)..but anyway might I suggest the time has come to start recapping Trading Spouses and/or Wife Swap??? Last night's episode of Trading Spouses was pure comedy. A rich white woman from suburban MA sent to Harlem, where we learned she 1. refused to cross the street to get coffee until she saw another white person and 2. had not one clue who Malcolm X was (they crossed a street named Malcolm X Blvd. and she asked, dead serious, who he was, and showed no signs of embarassment when the family was like ummmmm how do you not know who Malcolm X is.....) Clearly this show needs to be recapped by the genuises at TVgasm. C'mon EdHill......you know you want to!!!!

Congrats! Reading the recaps and comments do make my day.
Posted by: will | December 15, 2005 1:37 PM(#37 of 44)
Congrats 'Gasm!!! I too don't know how I stumbled across this but have been happy ever since. Got the whole office not starting to work in the morning until they've read the recaps for Amazing Race, Survivor, etc. Can't live without you guys! Here's to 30,000 more...
Posted by: fieldboy | December 15, 2005 1:40 PM(#38 of 44)
I found this site when tvgasm was quoted on msnbc.com about American Idol. I've been in love ever since! I look forward to not only the recaps, but all of the responses... Crack me up

so when are you guys going to start up a tvgasm edition of blind date? that sounds like the greatest sign of the apocolypse ever...and personally, i'd like to see EdHill's geriatric ass out on the town with LizardQueen doing something fun and spontaneous like tai chi or perhaps getting hammered and naked in the middle of a club in LA.
anyway, all joking aside, congrats. you guys totally help my work day pass quickly, and i constantly have to bite my lip not to get caught with you at work. scandalous.
XOXOXOXOX

glamOrama, I believe there must have been an internal "No fraternizing with the comment wierdos" memo. Otherwise I would have already had my black leather clad ass steppin' out with old EdHill and sg-dub. If we ever happen to be in the same CT watering hole I bet we'll figure it out. Bidwell Tavern tomorrow night anyone? My friends, and they almost number double digits, know that I am always up for drunken naked tai-chi. Or they can just wait 'til next years Turkey Day Race. I'll be the taller of the naughty Catholic school girl tag team.

I had to run here and say, thank you, TVGasm, THANK YOU for allowing actual commentary and conversation in your comments! I just got banned at one of your competitor sites... the sentences that got me banned? I said, "I cannot help but laugh." That got me banned for being an "obnoxious gasbag" in the words of one moderator... and in the same post, I wrote, "Come ON." That got me banned by another moderator for being too harsh in tone. I wish I was kidding. TVGASM, THANK YOU for not being so judgmental!
Posted by: Marissa | December 16, 2005 2:25 PM(#43 of 44)
Thank you guys for keeping me going at work! I can never get enough of you site! Best blog ever! (Ok I'm done with the exclamation points)Congrats again! (I lied)
