Shooting my show from my house?

Its great to hear from so many of you guys who seem as excited as I am about me shooting the show from my van these days. These first few episodes that were shot from the van and have been airing over the last two weeks were episodes that were made totally on the fly and on the road last fall. I never really planned on airing these first few episodes as I've mentioned recently in my blog because the episodes are mostly filled with footage shot years ago. Being stuck on the side of the road or in a garage waiting to have the van fixed didn't exactly give me much of an opportunity to shoot cool or interesting new footage which is why I guess I ended up featuring and filling these shows with old footage in an effort to make them into episodes last fall in case I needed or wanted to air them.

Last weekends episode which was shot from the van in the garage of Cam Brookhouse featured footage shot way back in the day when I wasn't shooting footage from my van or in a garage but from my house. I remember how it wasn't exactly by choice back then but with zero budget I had to shoot the show each week somewhere and shooting from my house didn't cost a thing! Feedback from people about particular episodes that are aired is awesome and I've received a bunch of it this week for some reason. It's always appreciated however I must admit, some of the facebook messages and emails I've received this past week regarding last weekends episode have started to bug me more than just a little bit I guess.

Seems like there are a few people out there who think I'm shooting my show from my house just like Tom Green does these days. Here is the thing though, I'm not shooting the show from my house these days, I did that years ago! Last weekends episode featured footage from when I use to shoot the show in my house years ago. The footage featured on last weekends episode was really old footage shot years ago back when Tom Green as a matter of fact was a guest on my show one week!

So to any of you who have contacted me or watched last weekends show and thought hey, JR is shooting his show from his house just like Tom Green is, let me make this clear one last time.......... last weekends episode featured footage from back in the day when I was shooting my show from my house which was years ago!

I'm not really sure why I feel the need to blog about being slightly annoyed by these emails and facebook messages other than the fact that back when I was shooting the show from my house I thought it was a unique and kind of an original thing to be doing at the time on Network television. Now suddenly all these years later according to some people, I'm shooting my show from my house just like Tom Green is. I guess feedback from people about the show really is awesome because at least I can email or message them back and share my thoughts about stuff as well.

It's easier and quicker to blog back though! Good to know you guys read these things!
