Today, let’s talk Levi’s commercials.

I was watching Project Runway last night and — long story short — I realized that Levi’s created two versions of one of its recent commercials: one for the gays, one for the straights.

Here’s the gay version: [kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/PTP1K3Vu3r8" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

Here’s the straight version:[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/43uI5QL0dXs" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

It’s sort of weird right? I mean, good on Levi’s for embracing the LGBT demographic and whatnot. But the unexpected switcheroo of come-hither brunette babe and come-hither blonde dude (combined with the usage of the same main male model) makes it seem less genuine. Not that I’m searching for authenticity in jeans commercials (dare I suggest that advertisers might not be 100% honest!).

Side note: The song used in the commercial is Peter Bjorn and John’s Up Against the Wall. It’s notable because it’s a Peter Bjorn and John song that’s not Young Folks.

The Golden Globes were announced this morning and every show you don’t watch was nominated.

First and foremost, The Office was snubbed for Best Comedy in favor of pay-for-me cable shows Entourage, Extras and Californication. And Pushing Daisies (which, hooray!). I’ve had a “Has Everybody Gone Mad?” draft post on the TiFaux back-end for like nine years, so I can’t say I’m thrilled to see it get another nod. Plus, Jeremy Piven got nominated and doesn’t he always win everything? Like, wasn’t he in Oslo for the Nobel proceedings to pick something up for portraying a slightly exaggerated version of himself on Entourage? The good news is that he’s too hot for me to stay mad at (although my secret, not-based-in-reality-at-all theory is that he always takes his mom to reward shows so that he can drop her off afterwards and then flirt with Jessica Alba or whoever).

Where was I? Golden Globes…

As far as the premium channel shows go, that seemed to be the name of the game. All these shows I don’t watch and generally aren’t even a part of my television consciousness walked away with buckets of nominations. Big Love, Californication, Extras (which I can’t begrudge), The Tudors and all sorts of other crap you don’t watch. Well, not crap. If I didn’t know how great Weeds and Dexter were from firsthand viewing experience, I’d hate them too.

Also, weirdo basic cable shows like Saving Grace, The Riches, Mad Men and Damages got a hefty portion of the nominations. I’m sure I’d be happy for them, but who has time to watch FX? Hell, I just realized that Steve Carell’s nomination is the show’s only one. Boo, hiss.

Well, let’s focus on the positive now. 30 Rock and Pushing Daisies! Tina Fey! Lee Pace and Anna Friel! Alec Baldwin! Michael C. Hall! Donald Sutherland!

Take a look at the nominees here.

They paint pictures of all sorts of fictional characters — Shakesperean, mythological, those derived from classical literature. Why not the culture that we all actually pay attention to? You know, the stuff we turn to because we want to and not because we feel like we should enjoy it.

In that vein, here are some wobbly pictures that this girl from Philadelphia drew of characters from The Office. They’re all on her Etsy store. Christmas gifts, anyone?

And…

She’s also got Toby, Kelly, Dwight, Jim and more.

Thanks to TiFaux pal Kate for pointing this out.
