"A man dressed in a costume plummets to his death beside a hotel pool and our 5-0 team investigates who wanted him dead. Our team identifies the victim as someone attending the local Cosplay convention, where attendees dress as their favorite anime or sci-fi character. He’d arranged to meet a woman he was having an online relationship with until her ex-husband showed up and beat him up. McGarrett and the team figure out the ex-husband didn’t kill our victim and our victim may have been a case of mistaken identity. He was thrown from a room that belonged to a thief, who had been targeting several high-end houses on the island to support his party lifestyle. Clearly the thief had stolen something worth killing for. The find the thief who has no idea who’s trying to kill him, but when the 5-0 team investigates his stolen merchandise, they find a flash drive hidden in a tourist “snowball” that has evidence of an old murder. Using the flash drive, the find the killer as well as solve the old murder." ]]> Sat, 23 Apr 2011 04:53:32 EDT AshMCairo Television 1 http://furryne.ws/Television/hawaii-five-0-recap--na-mersquoe-laua-na-paio/ http://furryne.ws/Television/moss-romps-with-rampant-rabbit/
The one-minute clip, for company Basement, kicks off with the catwalk queen gazing at the London skyline from a skyscraper window as a man with a giant rabbit's head sits reading a newspaper.

The creature then dances before Moss does the same, while at the same time opening up her coat to reveal her lingerie-clad body." ]]> Thu, 21 Apr 2011 10:35:51 EDT AshMCairo Television 3 http://furryne.ws/Television/moss-romps-with-rampant-rabbit/ http://furryne.ws/Television/teen-wolf-watch-the-fang-tastic-new-trailer---exclusive-video/ Sat, 02 Apr 2011 14:28:03 EDT AshMCairo Television 2 http://furryne.ws/Television/teen-wolf-watch-the-fang-tastic-new-trailer---exclusive-video/ http://furryne.ws/Television/images-of-the-new-voltron-lions/ Mon, 21 Mar 2011 17:02:17 EDT ostin Television 2 http://furryne.ws/Television/images-of-the-new-voltron-lions/ http://furryne.ws/Television/fx%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%98wilfred%E2%80%99-elijah-wood-is-dog-gone-crazy-in-new-trailer/
Wilfred is yet another Americanized comedy adaptation, this time coming from the Australian show of the same name. The original was broadcast down under in 2007, with a second season airing just last year. Wilfred is based on a 2002 short film by comedy duo Adam Zwar and Jason Gann. Zwar has been replaced by Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings trilogy and the forthcoming prequel The Hobbit) for the American version, but Gann will reprise his role from the original series as Wilfred the pseudo-anthropomorphic dog.


The premise for Wilfred is without a doubt the weirdest to appear on TV in a long time. Ryan (Wood) is a neurotic, depressed man whose neighbor (Fiona Gublemann, Californication) asks him to watch her dog during the afternoons. The dog, at least from Ryan/the audience’s point of view, is a full-grown man in a bad costume. Ryan struggles to keep Wilfred under control as he begins to question his grip on reality.
The trailer shows off the quirky black humor that FX seems to be favoring with shows like It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia and Archer. Ryan’s suicidal depression is played for laughs and Wilfred’s doggy interactions with his owner are exceedingly uncomfortable, in a good way. The series might just work, if writers can keep up the self-aware dialogue and situations and stay away from the disturbing furry undertones.

It’s a good thing that FX is picking this one up, because not many other channels (even on cable) would touch something as off-the-beaten-path as Wilfred. The network is known for pushing boundaries further than others, which will let the show stay true to its foreign roots -- broadcast standards in Australia are more forgiving of coarse language and naughty behavior, the latter of which is on display in abundance in the first video. ]]> Fri, 18 Mar 2011 23:23:09 EDT AshMCairo Television 4 http://furryne.ws/Television/fx%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%98wilfred%E2%80%99-elijah-wood-is-dog-gone-crazy-in-new-trailer/ http://furryne.ws/Television/first-trailer-for-new-thundercats-animated-series/ Wed, 02 Mar 2011 14:36:32 EST AshMCairo Television 2 http://furryne.ws/Television/first-trailer-for-new-thundercats-animated-series/ http://furryne.ws/Television/my-strange-addiction-fur-suit-fetish/
"Lauren wears fur suits out in public everyday. Despite the strange glances from strangers, Lauren feels more comfortable behind the furry mask." ]]> Thu, 20 Jan 2011 12:50:24 EST AshMCairo Television 2 http://furryne.ws/Television/my-strange-addiction-fur-suit-fetish/ http://furryne.ws/Television/furs-to-feature-on-tlcs-my-strange-addiction-jan-19/
Kiira, an amateur fursuit builder, was paid $1500 for her appearance.

Producers of the show have been looking for furs since mid-2010, and also sought to buy fursuit photography. Other announced episodes cover sleeping with a blow-drier, eating toilet paper and thumb-sucking, while past seasons featured eating chalk and extreme tanning.

Many furs fear a reprisal of The Tyra Banks Show, whose host presented furry as a sexual fetish.

My Strange Addiction claims to "[tell] the compelling stories of people who are battling obsessive behaviors on the verge of taking over their lives" and "[follow] addicts as they reveal their strange addictions and meet with psychological experts."

Kiira constructed fursuits for herself and her boyfriend for the show:

I said many times that it is just a hobby, not an addiction, but they said "Well take you anyways" So I had about a week to make two fursuits, and they just filmed me in various places and all. Even though my fursuits suck in the episode, I still got $1,500 and 15 minutes of fame, which is more than many can say.

The furry episode of My Strange Addiction is expected to air at 9PM EST/8PM CET. Two episodes may air back-to-back; it is unknown which is the furry one, but the schedule should soon be updated." ]]> Mon, 03 Jan 2011 17:29:05 EST AshMCairo Television 7 http://furryne.ws/Television/furs-to-feature-on-tlcs-my-strange-addiction-jan-19/ http://furryne.ws/Television/sex-sells-best-bugs-bunny-show-promo-ndash-ever/ Wed, 01 Dec 2010 20:55:38 EST AshMCairo Television 1 http://furryne.ws/Television/sex-sells-best-bugs-bunny-show-promo-ndash-ever/ http://furryne.ws/Television/swat-kats-on-dvd/ Thu, 25 Nov 2010 05:55:12 EST ostin Television 4 http://furryne.ws/Television/swat-kats-on-dvd/ http://furryne.ws/Television/regular-show-pilot/

Subject: Television Casting

Hi,
I work with a documentary television production company that is currently producing a series for a major cable network that profiles people with exciting hobbies bordering on obsessions, or overlooked or uncommon addictions. It is called “My Strange Addiction,” and will air on TLC. The program tells the stories of individuals, exploring how the hobby/addiction is affecting his or her life and the lives of friends and loved ones. We are interested in reaching out into the furry community. We understand that this community tends to be wary of publicity or media, however we have no interest in exploitation. The intent of the show is to bring light to different activities that appear odd, or to provide insight into the troubles of those with uncommon addictions. If you or someone you know might be interested in being cast in this program, send an email tokcox@20west.tv or send your name, age, location, a current photo, and a brief description of your hobby/addiction to casting@20west.tv.

Thank you!
