The Henry Rollins Show
Television December 31st, 2007I stumbled across The Henry Rollins Show the other night. Henry Rollins was interviewing Christopher Walken. I think Christopher Walken wasn’t taking the interview very seriously because he told Rollins that he really wanted to play a nice Ozzie and Harriet type role next. The show ended with a weird unfunny monologue by Janeane Garofalo while she sat in her bedroom. It was like watching public access television, but with less talent. I almost wish the show was on BCAT (Brooklyn Cable Access TV) to really complete the picture. I can’t wait until the writer’s strike is over!

Funny that you would mention Janeane Garofalo being involved in a public access show. When I lived in LA, I used to tune into a public access show regularly. It was called, “Colin’s sleazy friends.†It was two kind of boozed or drugged up guys interviewing a porn star. Colin was sometimes very funny. The other guy was as pathetic a sidekick as can be imagined – well, slightly better than Ed McMahon, but not as good as Andy Richter. One night, I tuned in, and their guest was a slightly uncomfortable Janeane Garofalo AND a porn star. I guess she was a fan as well.
Here’s more about Colin:
