What makes me shout

I just found myself Shouting WTF at a video of Amy Winehouse buying a cheeseburger for a paparazzi cameraman. (If you have no idea what I am talking about, check out the “Shouts” below the player.)

I’m Danny and I am a part of the Joost programming team. We are gearing up for our launch by picking what to promote from all of our awesome content. We will be editorially selecting great videos for you to watch: TV, Film, Music, Anime, Extreme Sports, News, DIY, Documentaries … reminds me that I have over 35,000 videos to watch before launch so I gotta run … but here are a few channels I found myself loving today.

Onion News Network

I love the titles of their videos … this election is shaping to be so wacky that I sometimes forget their titles are fake.

Madonna Music Videos

I had no idea there was a “Dear Jessie” video. Hmmm.

Amy Winehouse Channel

After the cheeseburger incident I needed to re-watch “Rehab.”

X-Treme Channel

I am a huge Crusty Demons of Dirt fan … I have no athletic skills whatsoever, so I find what they do to be compelling.

Strangers With Candy

Okay, this is a US-only channel. I’m sorry. We are closing lots of content deals outside of the US. Anyway, I am obsessed with Jerri Blank.

Blue Dragon from Toonami Jetstream

This is another US-only channel (I'm sorry). We just launched Blue Dragon. I personally don’t understand anime but the “intelligent” people in the office are going nuts for this show …
