Did Posh Spice and David Beckham name their daughter after Harper Finkle?

Harper Finkle Wearing an Outfit Made out of her Baby Clothes

A few days ago Posh Spice and her soccer playing husband had a kid, and this is apparently very important. The girl was named “Harper Seven Beckham”, a name which some report was inspired by the character Harper Finkle from the hit TV series “Wizards of Waverly Place“. The name was supposedly chosen by Harper’s older brothers who are big fans of the show. Other potential names for the girl were Alex, Russo and selena<3justin4everXOXOXO but they went with Harper because it "sounded trendier".

Many assume the girl’s middle name, “Seven” is based on the number of David Beckham’s soccer shirt. I was unable to verify this, because the Internet does not offer any pictures of David Beckham actually wearing a shirt. The true story is surely more interesting, as Seven is clearly a reference to the short lived character named Seven from the 7th season of “Married With Children”. I heard some British people say that David Beckham used to play football, so his interest in the show must derive from how impressed he is with Al Bundy scoring 4 touchdowns in a single game. Here’s hoping that the inevitable baby #5 will be named Buck Polk Beckham.

Sean Long shares a cool story, bro

Internet superstar Sean Long tells Ernie a cool story, bro

What up Transformer fans?

This year at Botcon 2011 we tracked down the incomparable Sean Long, star of the Internet, and got him to take some time off from making Transformer videos that only show his hands and asking questions at panels to share a cool story with Ernie, bro.

But wait! Back in 2009 we also got a chance to interview Sean Long, but never used the clip out of laziness! The audio quality is, in a word, shitty. The only person you can really make out is Caren who’s not actually in front of the camera. If only I had a mic port on my camera… Enjoy this blast from the past!

[Spoiler] Rory will not die in a future episode of Doctor Who!

The many deaths of Rory in Doctor Who

We’ve got a big future Doctor Who spoiler for you! In an episode later this year Rory will actually not die for a change! Rory is expected to survive an entire episode, with no characters seeing him die or assuming he’s dead at any time. Amy will likely not mourn his death by crying!

Amy Pond Mourns  Rory's Many Deaths in Doctor Who

This is very unexpected for fans of Doctor Who that have come to know Rory as something similar to Kenny from an episode of South Park or Nathan from a season finale of Heroes where each of these characters is known to die at the drop of a hat. To date Rory has died 3 times last season and 3 times this season, which has only been on for 4 episodes! What future episode will have Rory not die? Only time will tell! My personal prediction is that he will not die in an episode because he will already be dead, to be revived in a future episode…



My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Gets Snubbed in Emmy Nominations!

Fans of all things good and pony filled were disappointed to learn that the hit show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic received ZERO Daytime Emmy nominations this year. Another show on Hasbro’s network “The Hub”, Transformers Prime, received a total of 6 underserved nominations.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic gets Snubbed in Emmy Nominations

It’s becoming more and more clear now that even amongst Transformers fans, who one would imagine would be predisposed to like a Transformers show, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is a much more beloved and popular show.

Why would such an objectively superior show get ignored in favour of a fairly uncompelling run of the mill Transformers series? One that no fan would mention if asked to count their favourite Transformers shows on one hand? A show that replaced a fan favourite superior version and completely failed to live up to the precedent? Well it’s an awards show. If these idiots ever got it right, that would be the real surprise.

So ignore the Emmys, because they suck, and this is just another fine example. A well deserved Emmy win is as unexpected as a show accurate Applejack hat.



Captain N Cameo in 90210?

Captain N Cameo in 90210?

In this week’s episode of 90210 we see a background character that looks a lot like Captain N: The Game Master. This jacket seems like a near perfect replica, except for a white instead of black N. Some specific details such as the NES game pad belt and Nintendo Zapper gun are lacking, and his shirt is not the standard yellow, but these may have been omitted because they would have been out of place given the setting…

Captain N in 90210

The setting for this is that Annie convinces Marla to attend a screening of her old movie Pennyfoolish at the Griffith Observatory which somehow means a 1950s/1960s themed party that the whole gang attend.

So is this appearance intentional or is this just a random coincidence where someone happens to have the exact same coloured Letterman jacket? You decide!
