DICKS with Jonathan Torrens

Hi Orgsters!

In the summer of 2006 I made this mini pilot with Jonathan Torrens, Robb Wells and Yoursie Thomas in LA. It's called DICKS. We had a blast making it. We then pitched it to a few networks who I think thought we were dicks for pitching it. Anyway hope you like it, if you do - make enough on line noise and maybe one day DICKS will get to air!

Each episode of DICKS would feature 3 dicks and there would be specials like: Celebrity Dicks, Female Dicks, Animal Dicks, Cop Dicks, Drunk Christmas Party Dicks, Affliction Shirt Dicks, Unbelievable Dicks... you get the drift.

PS, My bud Yoursie Thomas is a standup comic in LA - really funny dude.

Nicely shows off the comic genius of Jonathan Torrens. I never thought I would say this but I would like to see more dicks.

Dear Mr. Clattenburg,

Since I'm a huge fan, obviously I have a certain bias.  But had I never watched even one episode of Trailer Park Boys, I still would have found this hysterically funny.

And that is coming from a middle-aged mom in sensible shoes.

Counting the days until Countdown to Liquor Day.

ever sincerely,

Debb

Hey Mike.  I'm from the States so I certainly won't get the benefit of seeing this, at least as it airs (thanks internet!), but I thought this was pretty funny.  I hope something comes of it!

At this point I'll settle for the TPB final one hour episode on DVD!

Very funny! The 'dick' is named Andy? Andy Dick? Coincidence? lol
Also, I have to quote Flight of the Conchords: "Too many dicks on the dancefloor." I don't think the quote is relevent to anything here, but this clip made me think of it.

Good Stuff but I'm afraid that Robb will be typecast as Ricky for awhile. As I was watching all I saw was Ricky in nicer clothes.

Thanks for sharing your DICKS with us, guys.

I will never look at foot cream the same way again.

I loved the way JT slipped in that "I'm Jonathan Torrens" at the end of a sentence, that was just too funny.

Hey Mike, if the network dicks aren't interested in airing it, why not make it an internet project? 
The internet is supposed to be the broadcasting medium of the future (apart from the lack of revenue/finance/development money...)   ;)

I love seeing the guys there, and it's funny, but I have trouble imagining that premise as a series.

Now maybe if you could have JT do this to some real life dicks, that could work  :perv1:

Hilarious. Yeah I think it is right time and I think that it should be done for the internet. Bypass the network dicks and just air it on youtube and I think that should be a big hit

I was thinking the same thing. There's several web series I watch that seem to be doing fairly well(one in particular "man in the box", they had Coolio in a few episodes!)

I personally enjoy the comedy delivered by Mike's work, it points out a lot of quirky things in the average joe everyday kinda life and makes good humor of it. I donno how to put it in words, but it's a fuck of a lot better than the impossible plot lines/comedy basis in the rest of tv shows. I think it would be interesting to see this as a reality tv series, would blow Punk'd and Cheaters out of the fucking water.
