Sexual Assault and Harassment in Hollywood

Before Entourage, I just remember him most for PVU. To me, that was always the start of Jeremy Piven acting like Jeremy Piven and he hasn't really changed since. Ari is just his character from PVU, but all grown up...and based on a real life guy that now owns the UFC.

Anyway, if dude acts like that in most of his roles, then to me it just comes off as an extension of his own personality and I wouldn't be at all shocked if what was coming out about him was true.

At the same time, like a lot of these cases, I try to exercise some remote amount of restraint to join the mob with pitchforks and torches, while at the same time not wanting to discredit the accusers.

Well, CBS has passed on ordering additional episodes of Wisdom Of The Crowd.

Most people will assume it is because of the harassment allegations against Piven, but I'd like to think it is because it is a really fucking boring show.

I called it "Jeremy Piven the scientist." You know he is smart because he wears glasses. The timing was terrible too,.Right around Charlottesville,

It was like he was trying to channel Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs while having a Buddy Israel flashback from his role in Smokin' Aces.

I never saw a single second of Wisdom of the Crowd, but the premise is appalling. Then again, CBS's largest demo probably didn't see Reddit after the Boston Marathon bombing. 

The single mindedness of the hive brained network of snitches is just plain frightening.  It is like what would happen if the pods from Invasion Of The Body Snatchers were used by law enforcement.

Was The Chase the movie with Charlie Sheen and the smokin hot blonde who was like a Senator's daughter or some shit? 

Hell yeah son.

Also, add Office Space to the mix of movies that were on heavy rotation on comedy central.

Okay, so what exactly was that show about? It sounds really unsettling. 

Quote

Driven by a need to find his daughter's killer, Silicon Valley tech innovator Jeffrey Tanner takes crowd-sourcing to a new level, creating a digital platform for people around the world to publicly share and evaluate evidence for criminal investigations. He uses the software as the foundation to launch a new company with a staff of passionate specialists -- including the original police officer who searched for his daughter's killer -- ultimately managing to revolutionize crime solving in the San Francisco Bay area.

Basically do what Reddit and 4chan do every time there's a terrorist attack.
