Season Two Of "Flex" Will Take Things To A New Level

The first season of "Funk Flex Full Throttle" was great. The cars were awesome and the show was entertaining. It was, in short, good television. Now that the schedule for the second season has come out, however, it can clearly be seen that this season will be even better.

The first season of "Funk Flex Full Throttle" was great. The cars were awesome and the show was entertaining. It was, in short, good television. Now that the schedule for the second season has come out, however, it can clearly be seen that this season will be even better. It will take the show's success to a whole new level, giving viewers even more of the things that they loved from season one and adding new thrills that will be sure to expand the audience. They are even looking to branch out into other markets by bringing people in from those markets, which is one of the main ways that the show is going to improve.

One good example of how they are trying to branch out is by bringing in Amar'e Stoudemire. He is a basketball player for the New York Knicks, a man who made New York basketball relevant again by coming in and starting the trend of big-name athletes coming to play in the city. Before he showed up, Knicks' basketball was a joke. Now, they are in the playoffs. They have added Carmelo Anthony and Chauncy Billups. As can be imagined, Amar'e Stoudemire is admired and loved in New York because he helped to turn things around. By bringing him on the show, Flex is looking to attract basketball fans who love what Amar'e Stoudemire has done.

Similarly, the show is going to be bringing in 50 Cent. He is a recording artists with millions of fans. He has been in movies, expanding his exposure. He is someone people will recognize and admire. Just like Amar'e Stoudemire, he has his own fans who will watch the show just because he is on it. The hope, of course, is that he will draw people in who will then keep watching the show when he is not on it anymore.

As if bringing in those two people were not enough, Flex has also proclaimed that a Ford Mustang will be on the show, a car that will, after it is upgraded, be added to a racing video game. This is a brilliant move. It attracts yet another market: That of the young gamer. Many people who do not care about rap music and basketball still love to play games. If they have a chance to see one of the future video game cars being designed in real life, they will take it at once.

All in all, it looks like the show is going to move up from its already great levels and become even better in the second season. The big-name celebrities who are coming on will provide interesting insights. The video game Mustang will be very cool since so many video game cars are not real but are just designed on computers. The show has gained some popularity, and these moves will make it more entertaining for the people who are already watching and give it some exposure to those people who have not discovered it yet.

Whatever Happened to Laurence Llewellyn Bowen

We all remember the hit TV show ‘Changing Rooms’ which saw Laurence Llewellyn Bowen go into lucky viewers homes and completely renovate their usual deco and style. Everything from lavish, purple, velvet curtains to full on lime green bed spreads, Laurence never let up on his whacky styles and bubberling charisma.

We all remember the hit TV show ‘Changing Rooms’ which saw Laurence Llewellyn Bowen go into lucky viewers homes and completely renovate their usual deco and style. Everything from lavish, purple, velvet curtains to full on lime green bed spreads, Laurence never let up on his whacky styles and bubberling charisma.

The frilly cuffed, interior designer was born in Kensington, London in 1965 and studied Fine Art at the University of Arts London. Mr Llewellyn Bowen started his dazzling TV career in 1996, when apparently his wife Jackie who was an author heard from her agent that the BBC we’re looking for a young, talented interior designer to make a house renovation programme with. Hey presto...within a few months Laurence became the sensational TV hit we now still see on our screens today. His eccentric style both in his personal fashion and interior design, are what have made him a household name for many years now. Although Changing Rooms sadly went off the air, Laurence is still a much loved TV personality and still appears in many things all over the media.

Memorable shows saw Laurence and the Changing Rooms team turn a little old ladies front room in Manchester, into a medieval banquet hall. The lucky viewer, Rose Smith had a very boring and drab living room with brown curtains, a old grey 2 seater sofa, weird 80’s patterned carpet, lots of dusty nic-naks on the aging mantel piece and to top it off...a chair of teddy bears and dolls all stacked up in the corner! On recommendations from the Old ladies daughter who rang the show, Mr Llewellyn Bowen waved his magical hand and transformed the run down interior disaster into a beautiful, rustic, warm and much more comfortable and alluring living room. The Changing room team also installed a ceiling fan, as Rose often found it near impossible to spend a summers evenings in her own living room due to the stuffiness and humidity. However with the ultra slick ceiling fan, with turbo advance settings that the team installed, she’ll be able to relax in her new medieval paradise to her heart’s content, no matter what the weather.

People often ask the Changing Rooms team how they get the room makeovers done so uber quickly...as well as having many pairs of hands to help them whip up these heavenly room ideas, the team also use things such as dehumidifiers and portable air conditioning systems so that paint drys quicker, rooms are more aerated and wall prints have less chance of smudging or spoiling.

Why not take a leaf out of the Changing Rooms book and revitalise your home for the summer. Not only will you feel happier with your new surroundings with such tools as dehumidifiers on the market you can also save a lot of time so making simple changes to a room, as in a new coat of paint, won’t take the whole of your weekend up. Plus we can all learn something from the big man himself...go for a whacky or eccentric colour and style that you usually wouldn’t go for, because as they say a change is as good as a break!

Maria is a shameless promoter of dehumidifiers and ceiling fans, and loves all things interior design!

What's Mad Men All About?

Mad Men is a popular American TV series, created and produced by Matthew Weiner. The series premiered on AMC in July 2007 and completed its forth series at the end of October last year

Mad Men is a popular American TV series, created and produced by Matthew Weiner. The series premiered on AMC in July 2007 and completed its forth series at the end of October last year. The forth series of Mad Men is now available on DVD and contains 13 episodes.
The series is set at the fictional Madison Avenue advertising agency Sterling Cooper which is located in New York City, although later on in the story the firm moves to the newly established Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce.

The series focuses on Don Draper, played by Jon Ham, who is a creative directory at Sterling Cooper and eventually a founding partner at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. The series revolves around his life, both in the office and outside of, paying particular attention to the moods and attitudes of 1960s America.

The series has been well received with critics and has won many awards, including most famously thirteen Emmys and four Golden Globes. Mad Men was also the first basic cable series to be awarded with the Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama series, a rare feat which it managed to procure in 2008, 2009 and 2010.

For those interested in taking a look back at what American life was like in 1960s America, there is no greater introduction and insight than Mad Men. Smoking, driving, sexism, feminism, adultery and racism are all major themes throughout the series, all of which are touched on quite strong.

Smoking for example, which was commonly accepted in the United States during the 60s when it was set is seen from a very casual viewpoint - nearly all of the characters smoke, and it isn't often that there isn't someone smoking a cigarette on screen. Lucky Strike is also featured within the pilot episode and discussion centres on a new article from Reader's Digest which has suggested that smoking may lead to various diseases including lung cancer.

The first season of Mad Men attracted 900,000 viewers although this figure soon doubled during the second season which was heavily promoted. According to data from Nielsen Media, 1.75 million viewers watched the Sunday night's season finale. In total, the cumulative audience for the three airings of the episode on that night was just under three million people.

Product placement was a huge feature within the series, fittingly since the series focused on a marketing firm. Heineken, Cadillac, Gilette, American Airlines and Clearasil are all featured within the series, while retro commercials for Dove, Vaseline, Hellman's and Suave were all used to promote the fourth season of the series.

The DVD for Season 4 of Man Men will be released on March 28th this year.
