Fantasy Factory: I’m an Awkward Enabler! (8/30/10)

Fantasy Factory: I'm An Awkward Enabler

BIG CAT EPISODE!!!! I actually kinda like Big Cat's awkwardness, it reminds me of Drama's awkwardness during the Rob & Big days, although I think Drama has more "stage" presence than his brother does.

I'm An Awkward Enabler!: Rob organizes an intervention to address his cousin Big Cat's awkwardness.

So my DVR decided to delete all of my series recordings which includes Fantasy Factory so by the time I realized it was on I missed everything up until the first commercial, but what I did see was pretty amusing. Rob stages an awkward intervention for Big Cat's awkwardness, which was in itself extremely awkward. So to help him get over his awkwardness they made him give a speech at the opening of one of Rob's Safe Spot Skate Spots and he actually did pretty well with it. I think if Big Cat was in front of the cameras more he would eventually develop more confidence and be fine with it, I mean look at Drama he was awkward as hell during the early Rob & Big years, but eventually he grew into it and became more comfortable.

So that was basically the gist of the episode, I don't know if I missed anything at the beginning, but between the Safe Spot Skate Spot opening across from a 7-11 and Big Cat's awkwardness the episode was pretty entertaining.

Fantasy Factory – He’s Just A Little Mini-Pig (8/23/10)

I'm looking forward to tonight's episode of Fantasy Factory, it looks like Rob is getting himself another "mini pet" this time in the form of a pig! He also has a dude who looks like an Indian Jesus driving around the Fantasy Factory in one of the go karts, which is hysterical. I think we're going to get a quality episode tonight, check out the synopsis below.

He's Just A Little Mini-Pig: Rob challenges his manager Jeremy to a happiness contest.

Fantasy Factory – Operation: Save Patty (8/16/10)

And we're back to a normal episode thankfully. The clip show last week wasn't terrible, but I'm not a fan of those types of shows in general. I would rather watch a half assed, mediocre episode with new material instead of a show full of clips, even if they were supposedly "never before seen".  But either way, tonight is a brand new episode and here's what we have to look forward to.

Operation: Save Patty: Rob's mom injures her ankle, so he and Drama go to extreme lengths to ensure she's as comfortable as possible.

Fantasy Factory – It’s Barry…Barry Bright! (8/2/10)

Looks like Rob is going to have another alter ego to go along with Bobby Light, but this time he's an exercise guru instead of an R & B sensation. It's not mentioned in the synopsis below, but I'm pretty sure we get to see Chanel in a variety of bikinis tonight for her Maxim Magazine photoshoot, so that's good. I'll be back tomorrow with a recap.

It's Barry...Barry Bright!: Rob develops an alter ego named Barry Bright, who films an infomercial for a new piece of exercise equipment.

Barry Bright, the one and only.... What a ridiculous infomercial. Obviously Jeremy is pretty smart and realizes that the infomercial is not going to help market the iCore Cruncher at all, but at least it was fun to watch. So basically the episode revolved around Rob's alter ego, Barry Bright, putting together an infomercial for the iCore Crunch, an exercise device that his personal trainer invented. I'll admit it is a cool idea, not sure if they are actually going to do anything with it, but cool idea none the less. The 2nd part of the episode dealt with Chanel getting a spread in Maxim Magazine and she was looking pretty good. I wish they would have focused more of the time on her in a bikini instead of the exercise thing, but either way it was a pretty entertaining episode.

Fantasy Factory: Cheese Ballers! (7/26/10)

This new Monday night time slot is messing me up here, sorry for not posting the synopsis yesterday, but here you go.

Cheese Ballers!: Rob competes in the Grilled Cheese Invitational in Los Angeles, where he hopes to wow foodies with his take on the sandwich. Also: pro skater Torey Pudwill visits the factory.

The episode was decent, Rob and Drama took time out of their busy schedules to hit up the cheese store in search of the most expensive cheese and bread they could find in order to compete in the Grilled Cheese Invitational. Overall they spend ~$500 on a loaf of bread and 2 bricks of cheese, which is pretty insane. Rob even went as far as to get some gold food coloring spray to spray on the sandwich. Meanwhile, Chanel got a squad of cheerleaders together so they could cheer on the Cheese Ballers. But as I expected, the Cheese Ballers did not do so well at the competition. I think it was more a lack of experience than anything else so hopefully next year they'll go back and use what they learned to win the whole thing.

The side story of the episode was with pro skater Torey Pudwill and his new grip tape company, Grizzly Grip. He approached Rob with the idea of Rob joining the team and of course Rob was willing to help him out. He even helped Torey out with the first ad for Grizzly Grip in which Rob was dressed up like a giant bear.

Overall it was a decent episode, I still think last weeks was better, but at least next week we get to see Chanel in a bikini as she poses for her Maxim Magazine spread.
