to all fellow fallen-monster vision and Joe Bob Brigg's fans, what's up with Joe Bob? His site hasn't been updated in a month, also he sent me an e-mail saying he'd be doing a comedy tour through my state but i haven't heard anything  else from him.

here's the URL for his site: http://www.joebobbriggs.com/

You know, I was watching Casino the other day and started wondering just where Briggs is now.  

I seriously miss MonsterVision.

I can't imagine they'll let the Horror Channel NOT have Joe Bob involved somehow.  Last I knew, he was working on a pilot for a new show, but it was real hush-hush.

He was on Nick DeGilio's radio show on WGN 720 AM in Chicago about three weeks ago after appearing at a cult and horror movie convention in the area. The best part of the interview was when someone asked about the making of "Casino" and he said that everyone, including DeNiro and Pesci, would spend time talking to and listening to the stories of LQ Jones whenever he was around. He said it was so strange but cool that the focus of attention was not the big name A-list actors, but this living legend from b-movies and character roles.

Maybe he'd had a rough night or a long weekend, but he wasn't up to par when I've seen or heard him as a guest on other people's shows. When people called in asking about what happened to certain B-movie stars or looking for certain films that went by other titles, his answers were usually vague. When I looked up some of the stuff he said out of curiosity, I noticed much of his info was behind and a couple of films that he claimed had many many alternate titles only had one or two. Like I said he may have been just having an off night, but his info seemed lacking compared even to his own site.

I would like to see him host a movie show of some kind again though, he has the right mix for the love/hate relationship a b-movie fan usually has with genre movies. I even miss his segments on "The Daily Show" poking fun of televangelists he did under his real name, John Bloom. They weren't frrequent, and I guess maybe they seemed a little dated and out-of-step with the vein of topical political humor that the show focuses on now.

He's going to be an advisor and possible on-air host for Blue Orchid Entertainment & Joel Silver's Scream Channel when it launches on cable in January 2005 - http://www.screamchannel.com

This channel has no relation or connection to The Horror Channel which will be launching this October on cable. - http://www.horrorchannel.com

I'd love to find a copy of Joe Bob's "autobiography" called "The History of Western Civilization, or My Story by Joe Bob Briggs" Completely silly tale of rednecks, bass boats, and strip joints in Texas. I still find myself using the sound effect "Thwack!" at odd times and snickering at it. And since the only other person I know who read the book is my friend in high school who told me about it, I know I can't explain why I'm laughing to anyone without sounding like a twit.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
