On Countdown Mode...
So is it really, really pathetic that I'm so looking forward to the première of Isla Presidencial? If you haven't heard, this is the Bipolar Capybara's new animated webcast where, we're told, "power, envy and lots of presidents wearing shorts all mix together in a deserted island." The first episode's due out today and, truth be told, I'm sort of on countdown mode.
The series' parent-blog, El Chigüire Bipolar, is one of the most refreshing things to happen in the Venezuelan public sphere in ages: sharp, irreverent and reliably hysterical, I sometimes get the feeling that it makes this blog almost superfluous. They're just so much more effective at showcasing the weird loopiness of Venezuelan reality than we could ever hope to be...
They've tweeted they'll post at around noon. I can't wait!

Hugolin, el tirano maricon
Isla Precidencial looks funny as hell, but about as harsh as an episode of Seinfeld.
If you want something that would send Chavéz into a killing frenzy, read Hugolín, el tirano maricón. Let's just say that it's like the whole Juanes episode, but with horses and giant trees. And Chavéz's daughter, who wants to become a prostitute. Yet despite being insanely explicit, it's still quite benevolent and SFW (safe for work).
So far it's just a script (which has been around for like 2 years), but it's supposedly going to become an animated short in South Park style. Any day now. Don't hold your breath though.
Hugolín
is hysterical! I just tweeted it.
Good
It was good, but very short. I hope they can get more out with the advertising dosh they get from their site!
It was hilarious!!!
Favorites in order:
1. Hugolin
2. Evo (I think Evo was the funniest, but Hugo was close and he is after all The Man)
3. Uribe
I'm utterly impressed, very well thought off and executed.
Bravo Chiguire

“Sí, lo reconozco. Soy adicto al sexo. Y al litio. Y a algunas sustancias. Y al Nestea. Y a los Miramar, menos los de pasitas. Y a dispararle con flower a los faros en la calle. Y a rascarme los sabañones con la cabuyera de los chinchorros. Y al Playstation. Y a ver comiquitas los sábados. Y a Dayana Mendoza. Y a dibujarle bigotes a las fotos de las revistas. Y a insultar a los que opinan en los programas de radio. Y a aplaudir en los aviones. Y a hacer remixes a alocuciones de funcionarios públicos. Y al Photoshop. Y a Noticias 24. Imagínate tu, querida pisciana, lo bajo que he caído, que reconozco incluso esto. Suplico tu perdón.”

Wow, I know they say you should always leave the audience wanting more, but that was ridiculous. Yes, the production values are lovely. Yes, the Evo character looks like it can be played for great laughs. And yes, Emilio Lovera was great...but Four Minutes?! That's not an episode, that's an extended tease!
