Shine_IM_LE_Closed_standing_hr-1.jpg

Alright Gasmii, if you are a cell phone junkie, then this is the contest for you. We have been given one LG Limited Edition Iron Man Phone...it's so exclusive that it will never be sold in stores, so you better enter to win!

Here is the official description:

LG Limited Edition Iron Man Phones
To support the role that LG's technology plays in the movie, the company has developed an 18K gold backed, limited edition Iron Man phone. Valued at a whopping $2,000 - these are truly limited edition. The film's director, Jon Favreau, and Iron Man himself, Robert Downey Jr., both have Iron Man-branded LG phones of their own.

So here is your contest:
Get crafty. Make your own Iron Man costume with supplies you have laying around your house. You have to send us a picture of you (or a friend) wearing your creation and the TVgasm staff will vote on the best costume.

Send in your submissions to contests@tvgasm.com (be sure to put "Iron Man" in your subject line)

Contest closes at 11:59PM PST on May 29.

HARMONY REMOTE WEEK 1 WINNER

0,1425,Sz=1&I=177236,00 Last week, I announced that TVgasm would be giving away a Logitech Harmony One remote control every week for the next three weeks. The response has been redonkulous with over 1,500 entries in week one. This weeks contest is much more silent for some reason, so don't forget if you didn't win last week. .. try again this week.

So who won this week? Find out after the jump. . .

Contest: The Must Have Gadget For The TVophile In Your Home

35927 4 1 A while back in an effort to consolidate all my remotes for my TV's, DVD Player, BluRay, VCR, DVD recorder, CDplayer, Radio, XBOX 360 and Cable/DVR. . . I was given a great all in one remote as a gift. The Logitech 880. I must have registered it online because now I get emails about upcoming products.

Why do you care about my remotes and emails? Well, last week I got an email announcing the Logitech Harmony One which is supposed to be the new must have remote, and thought maybe they'd want to give us a few to giveaway in exchange for shamelessly promoting it on TVgasm. One email later and I have 3 of these remotes for a few of our lucky readers.

At $250 per remote, this is more expensive that my first TV I bought upon moving to LA 6 years ago, but I can honestly say of the Logitech Harmony line, if you are fortunate enough to be able to treat yourself, this is a must have. . . if you aren't, thats what TVgasm is here for.

We are giving away one remote every friday for the next three weeks. All you have to do is email me with the subject line "HARMONY ONE" at madeyoulaugh@tvgasm.com and sell me on why you deserve one. Could be for you, could be for a gift for a friend I just want to hear your stories. If you have a ton of remotes and feel like sending me photos of your chaos...that works too!

Keep in mind, Logitech did not reach out to me to pimp this out like so many of our other giveaways, I am so in love with the one I have I actually contacted them...thats how much I love this product! This is an upgrade on the one I have so if it is better (which it seems to be) then this remote will do it all, shy of your laundry.

After the jump find a video from PC Magazine (who gives TVGasm in their top 100 each year) announcing the new remote and showing off some of its cooler features as well as some info from the Logitech Harmony One fact sheet.

They said of Tivo, "it will change the way you watch TV forever" and meant it. I can say of Harmony remotes, they will change the way you control your entertainment for life.

And since February 18th also happens to be my birthday week, whomever wins that week I will also throw in a few misc DVDs of new releases to have something to control with your new remote. Good luck!

And thanks for being so loyal to the 'gasm!

P.S. it has a charger so 1: you never need to replace the battery and 2: I just leave mine there and ALWAYS know where my remote is

Contest: iPod Nano from the CMA's

Cma Awards.Black.Small-1

is it just me, or does it appear that this years CMAs
are brought to you by
Starfleet Academy?

To help promote the CMA's on ABC, TVgasm is offering a CMA prize pack to one of our readers and their viewers.

Included in the Prize Pack will be:

  • CMA BAG
  • CMA MUG
  • CMA TSHIRT
  • iPod Nano

By my count, thats over a trillion dollars in prizes. . . though math is not my strong suit.

All you have to do to win is tune in to ABC on November 7th at 8/7c and watch the CMA's. I am not a huge fan of awards shows, so after you watch the show instead of emailing me your favorite moment, I want you to email me the bottom 3 moments of the show and why there were bad. The good things will wind up on youtube, but the bad stuff Ill never get to see and that's where you come in. Email me at madeyoulaugh@tvgasm.com, subject line CMA. The best of the worst as deemed by me will win the prize pack - - as always, originality counts so have fun with this. Entries will be accepted until November 9th, 11:59pm PST.

CONTEST: EXTREME MAKEOVER: TVGASM EDITION

Extrememakeover Tvg

A few weeks back I mentioned in the forums that I think it's time for change. Specifically what I said was, "I think its high time TVgasm undergoes a make over. I think we can all agree the main page is a bit cluttered. Maybe all over the place. Ads are at times imposing and not well integrated into the site and there is so much content on the site, its become a little hard to navigate."

At the time I suggested a contest for you guys to come up with a new design for the site. I delayed announcing it fully until I had a killer prize. Im still working on that, but I dont want to delay. So fuck it. Even though the prize is TBD (it wont suck, I promise) I thought I'd open it up to you guys now.

Find out more after the jump. . .

America's Next Top TVgasm Writer Update!

treehill012607It's time for an important update in our America's Next Top TVgasm Writer contest. We have some finalists and a winner.

First, the finalists. For Survivor, Schoonie and Gary will be battling it out for the right to document Jeff Probst's every televised move. They'll be each submitting a recap of the season premiere on February 8th, and from there, you'll vote via the comments section on your fave.

We were going to announce the finalists for Days of Our Lives too, but I just realized I had forgotten to post someone's submission (sorry!), and that's not really fair. Be sure to read the Days samples, including the new one that's up, and I'll announce finalists next week (click here to go to the Days of Our Lives samples).

And speaking of samples, we now have officially opened the doors to One Tree Hill recaps. We have two posted already, but if you think you've got the goods, email me at bside@tvgasm.com with the word "SUBMISSION" in your subject header. In the meantime, read the OTH samples here.

Oh, and did I mention that we have a winner to announce? Results after the jump...
