Naked Happy Girls

TV

Naked Happy Girls was an adult-oriented reality series that aired on Playboy TV in 2006 and 2007, featuring the work of New York-based nude photographer Andrew Einhorn. The concept was originally based on Einhorn's photography book, Naked Happy Girls, featuring real women from the city undressed and in intimate moments. The show expanded on that concept by following him with cameras as he solicited "new" models for his next book. Season 1 was shot on location in various parts of New York City and generally featured two female profiles per episode. In 2007, the show returned for a second season and followed Einhorn as he traveled to northern California in search of new nude models. Based primarily in San Francisco and produced by Sexcetera alum Kira Reed, the episodes expanded to include counties like Napa Valley.

Barney and the Backyard Gang

TV

Barney and the Backyard Gang is a direct-to-video series produced by The Lyons Group and was produced from October 13, 1988 to October 20, 1991. This series launched the stardom of the PBS television show Barney & Friends. Music for the Barney and the Backyard Gang videos was created by Stephen Bates Baltes and Phillip Parker. The series was a regional success, but only a moderate success throughout the rest of the country. Then one day, in 1991, Larry Rifkin, then head of Connecticut Public Television, rented a Barney video for his daughter Leora. He liked the concept and talked to Leach about possibly putting Barney on television through the Public Broadcasting Service. Rock with Barney was the last video in the series before the television show debuted. Also, only four of the kids from the videos (Michael, Luci, Tina and Derek) were carried over to the television show.

Baddiel and Skinner Unplanned

TV

Baddiel and Skinner unplanned was a free-form talk show hosted by British comedians/personalities David Baddiel and Frank Skinner and produced by Avalon Television. Its concept was developed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and had a run in the West End at the Shaftesbury Theatre in 2001. The show features the two hosts sitting on a couch on-stage and responding to questions from the audience — at times rather seriously, but usually with bizarre digressions into satirical comedy. An audience member is chosen as "Secretary" and has the job of keeping a note of the topics covered on a white board. In practice, the personality of the secretary will also prompt many jokes — usually at his or her expense. At the end of the show, Skinner asks either the secretary or the audience to choose between two song books, and to pick a page number between 1 and 20. This process determines which song is performed by the duo, sung by Skinner with Baddiel accompanying him on piano. Topics of discussion are wholly mandated by the audience and have ranged from discussions of the war against Iraq and other political events to comments on the latest plot twists of popular soap operas and the Atkins diet. Skinner's Catholicism and Baddiel's Jewish faith are also occasional targets of humour.
