Matthew McConaughey


The annual CBS Upfront presentation, at which the network reveals its fall schedule and introduces new shows, is just a few days away.  This year, CBS and CelebriGum are teaming up to produce a thrilling new drama.  CelebriGum is proud to present this preview!

Matthew McConaughey... a man with a unique talent... but is it a blessing or a curse?  Whenever he steps outside... 


"Mr. McConaughey!  Look at this carry-on!"

"Okay." 


 "Check out the zippered compartments, the sturdy construction…"

 "Yes, I see."



"It's barely used…what do you think?"

"Twenty dollars."


"Matthew McConaughey: Pre-Owned Luggage Appraiser."  Coming this fall to --

(TENSE MUSIC CUTS OUT)

I'm sorry, I'm being told "Matthew McConaughey: Pre-Owned Luggage Appraiser" has just been canceled.  Probably for the best; though the acting was good, the writing was terrible.

Instead, CBS has just green-lit another CelebriGum series.  It's a reality show called "Gum's Eye View." 


It gets dark, then light again.  Clouds go by.  Sometimes it rains.  There might be a bird.

CBS: The Tiffany Network. Only on CBS.

  1. I'd totally watch a reality show about gum. But then, I watch lots of stupid stuff.

    1. Much of my life is a reality show about gum already. Not sure how much more I could take.

  2. Looks as if McConaughey is giving the luggage the OK sign or the 3-ring sign [from my youth watching Yankees baseball: as play-by-play man, Mel Allen, used to instruct us: Give 'im the 3-ring sign & ask the man for Ballantine[beer].] Anyway, if either of these shows is a spin-off of the NCIS franchise, and CBS is still America's most watched network, then they're guaranteed hits. CBS viewers don't seem to know how to operate remotes.

    1. I never heard of the three ring/Ballantine sign. If that's what Mr. McConaughey was trying for, he left sadly disappointed.

      Re: your point about CBS viewers and remotes. In a short-sighted move, CBS has also green-lit a reality/educational series in which older Americans learn to use remotes. I predict it will get good ratings for a while and then drop off dramatically.

  3. From scuffs and spills to pet hair and leaching the floor cleaner, your panels accumulate layers of dirt. Use microfiber cloths and a natural detergent to remove dust and dirt. Use Magic Erasers to accumulate spots and stains. When you click on the corners of the rooms or the hallway, monitor the spider webs while you are and remove anything you find.
