In a metropolitan area with more than 20 million residents, thousands of animals — dogs, cats, and even chickens and piranhas — are neglected, abused, hoarded or housed illegally. A few years ago, eight tough guys from the mean streets, who frequented hot rod shows and tattoo parlors, discovered their strongest bond was actually a passion for animals — and they formed a rescue organization like no other. Some have violent and turbulent pasts, complete with run-ins with the law, but all are seeking redemption and solace in their mission to save animals from human abuse.
This new weekly series that documents this unlikely group of animal activists on their crusade to save helpless, abandoned and abused animals. The eclectic band of brothers — composed of club bouncers, security guards and even a retired New York Police Department (NYPD) detective — is on call 24/7 to take on cases no one else will. They’re not cops, animal experts or even animal control. They’re just big guys with even bigger hearts and a desire to save animals from deplorable living conditions and abusive or simply misguided owners.
Rescue Ink Unleashed premieres on National Geographic tonight at 10p and these 8 tough guys will capture your hearts with what they do! These 8 guys help the helpless, animals. They rescue them from bad and difficult situations or they work with the owners to teach them how to take care of their animals. In tonight’s episode they help a guy, who is hospitalized after being brutally beaten up, and he can’t go home to feed his 3 pitbulls, so they are called him to find a temporary home for them while their owner recovers. They also have to help capture several chickens that have taken residence in an area where they are unwanted, and the chickens actually give them a run for their money. The last case is the toughest, some a$$hole is shooting feral cats with a pellet gun that have been peeing in his backyard. The guys go in to help him and even though he welcomed their help, the f*cker calls the cops on them. Even though he did that, they vow if they get any more calls about him shooting the cats they will be back to talk to him again. Hopefully the sh!t learned his lesson and didn’t shoot anymore cats. Next week’s episode is about two different dog calls and piranhas. And as tough as the dog stories start out to be, they have happy endings! That is what makes Rescue Ink Unleashed so awesome, even though what these 8 guys start out with is a horrible situation for the most part they turn things around! So make sure to check out this show tonight and every Friday at 10p for a show that will really warm your heart!!!

Tucker Max’s hugely successful book I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell is having one of the hysterical stories from the book being turned into a movie that is out today! Tucker Max has been touring the country with the movie and on Monday the film had its Hollywood premiere and I was there to talk to him about it and see the hilarious Brovie!!! I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell is the story about 3 guy friends who take a road trip to a strip club for a makeshift bachelor party for one of them. Once they get to the strip club, one will find love, one will make it with a midget and one will get arrested and the hi-jinx don’t stop there. This movie is the perfect male bonding movie or as I like to call it Brovie as in Bro-movie. You know like Porky’s and The Hangover that every guy wants to experience, but most of them can only do it by watching it in on the big screen. I found myself laughing out loud several times and I am girl.
Matt Czuchry (The Good Wife) brilliantly plays Tucker Max and as the man himself told me, “In some ways he is a better me than me. He’s a lot more likable. He is a lot more demable. He’s like, you actually, kind of, maybe want to hang out with him in real life. Where I don’t know if you want to hang out with me in real life.” I think that is the best way to describe Tucker’s character in the movie. I was telling my friends, he is the type of guy you want to party with but you don’t want to be friends with. Does that make sense? It will when you see the movie. Jesse Bradford plays Drew who spews our bitter one liners that you know you shouldn’t be laughing at, but you can’t help yourself! He is such a sh!t, but so adorable being one! Then there is Geoff Stults (October Road) who is convinced by Tucker to go to the strip club and celebrate his upcoming nuptials and he has the craziest night of them all. I can’t tell you the scene, but there is one with him that will leave you totally squeamish, but the rest of them he is pretty much the straight guy to his two buddies.
Now when it comes to scenes…the ultimate scene that I am sure will be all over YouTube by Monday and will be talked about for years to come is “The sh!t scene”. Here is how Tucker described it, “‘The sh!t scene is definitely the most epic sh!t scene in movie history. I can promise you that. Whatever other flaws the movie may or may not have that scene nails it.” I am not going to tell you the details of the scene because you need to enjoy it by seeing it, but it is seriously the most epic sh!t scene in movie history. And I have to tell you knowing it was going to happen makes it even funnier. Because when the wheels are put into motion, you will start to laugh in anticipation of what you know is going to be going down. Let’s just say Van Wilder is now a distant second when it comes to sh!t scenes. Sincerely that moment in the movie is reason enough to see this Brovie, but there is so much more to enjoy. I think it will become a cult classic on DVD like Office Space, you know where guys will be inviting there buddies over for beer to watch I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell for years to come.
So what is next for Tucker Max? Hopefully working a sequel to this movie with one of the many other stories from his first book I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell. I say first book because he told me coming in February is his second book A$$holes Finish First. He said AFF is like IHTSBIH as in “short stories about the stupid sh!t I do when I drink.” So I had to ask him what was the stupidest thing he did when he was drunk and you will have to watch the interview above to hear what it was!!!
Now I have to say Tucker Max, when I asked him why I wouldn’t want to hang out with him, he told me it is because he is d!ck and I have to say after interviewing I don’t agree with him! So go out and see the movie that is loosely based on his crazy drinking antics and make sure to have a beer before and after you watch it!!!
Side note, I haven’t read the book but after seeing the movie I am so going to buy it!!!
Medium is back tonight on its new network at 9p and being paired with Ghost Whisperer on CBS is a perfect fit for the show.

Besides dealing with no longer having her dreams, partial paralysis from the stroke and being out of work, she still has her family to deal with. Joe is being understanding as usual. but how much is he going to take? How will Allison deal without having her dreams? Will she still be able to help stop crimes and catch the bad guys? Find out tonight and every Friday night on 9p on CBS to find out all the answers to those questions? Plus this is a really good show that was given the chance to start over on a network that actually believes in them for the first time in a really long time!

So Brad Pitt was honored yesterday with some humanitarian award and he was very expressive! Although that first picture scares me because with that beard he kind of looks like he is doing the Mel Gibson. Please someone convince to him shave ASAP. Angelina Jolie was seen taking half her kids to a Toys’r’Us in France a few days ago, but the natural father of 3 of them desperately needs her help more. Look at his suit and tie, they are wrinkled. What happened to the dapper Brad Pitt we love to look at? Please someone get him back to the hotness we know or we will all be looking at him the way he looks like in that last picture.

So some guy thought he could make his penis bigger by, I guess, lifting a dumb bell with it. And I guess you can say it worked because it swelled to 5X the size it was, but it got stuck in the dumb bell he was using to make it bigger for three days. So the man, let’s call him Dumb Bell for obvious reasons, went to the hospital and they had to call the fire department in to saw the exercise equipment off. (Sounds like my favorite Rescue Me episode) Lucky for the guy the penis was able to be saved, but no word if when they swelling went down if it actually worked. This guy so has to make it to the Darwin Award winner’s list (you don’t have to die to make the list) because that is one of the schmuckiest things I have heard a man do!
Side note, you know KTLA had to love doing that story because they mentioned penis over 10 times in that 2 minute segment.
