off centre

3.30am and i still can't fall asleep. must be that 1.5l of coke light i downed 3 hrs ago. hate it when this happens.. ruins the next fews days all the time. i don't get enough sleep tonight means i'll get up in the afternoon tmr which means i won't be able to sleep again till late, etc, etc. it's a vicious cycle i tell ya.

i've been watching this sitcom called off centre. great show, funny as hell. it stars john cho, the milf dude from american pie. he's the best part of the show. love how he delivers his lines. it's a pretty old show actually. think it aired sometime back in 2002. too bad it got cancelled halfway through the second season. why do these tv networks always cancel the best shows.

anyway show's about this two friends, mike and euan, who lives in a posh apartment in new york. their regular hangout is in chau's vietnamese restaurant. chau is this quirky asian dude who has a weird (and often humourous) perspective on life and women. living across the hall from mike and euan is status quo, a grammy award-winning rapper who loves to cook and is only in his rapper persona when he has to be. think of off centre as a kind of teen-flick (minus the actual teens) sitcom and you'll get the idea. this is one of my favourite parts in the show:

mike (after successfully chatting up some ladies in the bar): chau, can you believe this? if i were a super hero, i would be woman-man! (pauses) no no wait a second...

chau: no no no that's good, that's good. then i would be your side-kick... girlie-boy!

i should be getting the first two seasons of two guys, a girl and a pizza place (starring ryan reynolds!) pretty soon. can't wait!
