Blue Collar TV

Last night Archi-Sapper and I had a new experience -- we got to watch the taping of a television show. A friend of ours e-mailed me last week and said he'd snagged three tickets to a taping of Blue Collar TV at the House of Blues. I've not been a huge fan of the show (though I do like Jeff Foxworthy), but Drew Carey was the guest star, and I do like him (I'm a big fan of his show Whose Line Is It Anyway).

There were two tapings last night, one at 6:00 and one at 10:00. We attended the 6:00 taping (10:00 tapings are past my bedtime on a school night). The guys recorded a few skits live in front of us, and in between skits we watched pre-recorded skits on the closed circuit t.v.'s. It was all well done, though watching the same skits more than once was a bit tiring. My favorite skit was a spoof of The Phantom of the Opera, where they had someone pretending to be Dolly Parton singing and one of the cast members was the Phantom of the Grand Ole Opry. There was also a cute spoof of The Apprentice.

The episode is supposed to air on the WB network next Thursday night. Don't look for me or Archi in the crowd, though. We were upstairs and towards the back of the loft, so we didn't make it on screen. We did, however, make it to a nice after-show dinner at the HOB restaurant.
