So, "The Two Corey's" premiered tonight on A&E and of course I cancelled all of my plans so that I could watch them reunite. Did anybody else watch it? What did you think?

Saw the preview. It looks rather interesting but I'll probably forget about this show because it looks like a show from VH1 but I'll see when the time the show is on I'll watch it.

I'll say this... Corey Haim looks much better now than he did a few years ago. Did anyone see him in interviews a few years back? Yikes.

The show is staged -- Heim and Feldman are "in character", they're not playing true to life representations of themselves -- but that's fine. It's the fuckin' Two Coreys, man. How could I miss it?

I recorded the first two episodes, and I'm watching them tomorrow night. A friend of mine told me he saw a great preview where the two Coreys discuss the fact that there's a Lost Boys II going into production and that they're apparently not good enough to be in it. :X

A Lost Boys II without the two Coreys?? Count me out for that one.

They actually offered a cameo to Feldman, but nothing to Haim. And I know the show is probably somewhat scripted because they need to keep it interesting, but I think big portions of it are actually reality.

I don't see why they won't have at lwast cameos from both Coreys in LB2. Both are low rent/low pay and both aren't strangers to the DTV horror scene.Haim has done some pretty alright ones like Demolition High, Demolition University, Fever Lake and Back Lot Murders. Who cares if they dislike Haim it'd be a cameo and increase DVD sales dramatically.

When was this on? It's two episodes in already? Damn it, I looked two days ahead on A&E and I can't find it at all.

They played two new epsiodes back to back. It's on Sunday nights at 10.

Son of a bitch. I slept the entire evening away last night and then woke up around one to watch the second showing of Flight of the Conchords. I didnt think this was to debut so soon. I hope A&E does repeats before new episodes.

I heard about this, interesting concept for a show, they were inseperatable back in the day, which wasn't necessarily a good thing

I've been reading up on the show -- apparently, small portions are based in reality, but for the most part Haim and Feldman are completely in character. It's a faux-reality TV show.

Most reality shows are either partially scripted or mainly "directed".

On a show where they had reality show stars telling stories they mentioned if something good happened and they didn't get the shot, they would have them re-enact the event.

People are naive if they think reality shows are 100% reality.

Feldman hasn't really changed that much at all.

Haim looks like he's lived the rough life. Poor guy.

Lance Lives
08-04-2007, 05:02 AM
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I think Feldman looks almost exactly the same as he did in part 4 (height aside).

I've had the same impression...I mean, Corey H doesn't look nice at all.

That pic of Haim actually scared me a little. Imagine that.... me, scared by little Marty Coslaw.

Corey Haim is the man. License to Drive is still one of my favorite movies of all time.

Corey Feldman on the other hand, is a crybaby douche bag. "By the time I was 14 I had a million dollars, the pressure of life was too much, I was on my own by 15, WAH WAH WAH!" He's always trying to sell his sob story to every Tom, Dick, and Jane. I don't care why your crappy movie career went down the toilet. You're an idiot. All the flicks you did as a kid were cool, when you grew up though, you were just some sort of waste.

God I hate Corey Feldman.

Lance Lives
08-07-2007, 03:43 AM
Hmmm...I personally like Feldman. I like he rules even.
I finally got to see this show. Just one episode though because Flight of the Conchords was on. It was the one where they were trying to quit smoking. I think the situations are set up but the dialouge and stuff is improvised, kinda like that show Viva La Bam.

Words can't even describe how old I feel after watching this show. My little cousin didn't even know who the 2 Coreys were, and promptly lent her License to Drive. I told her Citizen Kane was nothing compared to it, to which she asked "What's Citizen Kane?" Le Sigh.....

I feel just a tad bit bad for Haim. I realize it was his choice to do massive amounts of drugs and alcohol, and he is dearly paying for it now. It's like he still has the mentality of being a 15 year old. I think Feldman made a sombering point when he said that Haim has finally cleaned himself up and now he has to be afraid of dying.

All in all, I am hooked.

That pic of Haim actually scared me a little.

Yeah....same here.

I haven't watched the show yet, but I always liked Corey F better. Haim is cool too, but Feldman is great.

anyone watch the season 2 premiere? i never watched the first season because it looked like the fakest reality tv show ever made. this season though, seems pretty real. they got into a fight and it went something like this,

"i could rip you to shreds right now"
"ok do it"
"where were you when i was 14 and i was getting molested?"
"i was getting molested too at the same time".

Yeah I saw that I was wondering which one was being molested by Jacko. It could have been either it seems.

^^ it'll be rerun all this week.

same thing i thought. awhile ago Feldman actually made a tv statement defending Michael Jackson when Michael was going though his trial. i can't remember exactly what he said. something like "i stayed with him and Michael never did anything, he was a good guy". anyway, Corey Haim said "you were friends with the guy after you knew he molested me". then Feldman said "well i was getting molested by someone else". so there's a good chance one of the molesters in question was Michael Jackson.

Feldman Puts An End To Jackson Abuse Rumours (http://www.imdb.com/news/ns0000002/?start=21)

Former child star Corey Feldman has put an end to rumours he was once molested by pop superstar Michael Jackson - insisting the singer is innocent of any abuse claims.

Feldman was a close friend of the Thriller hitmaker throughout his childhood and was subpoenaed as a witness during Jackson's 2005 child abuse trial.

And because the actor, now 36, was placed under a strict gagging order, he was forbidden from talking about the case - even to defend his former pal.

Feldman has now revealed that while he was the victim of childhood abuse - the perpetrator was definitely not Jackson.

He tells GQ magazine, "People can say whatever they want, but it wasn't Michael. He and I have our own issues, but that wasn't one of them. The guy that did this to me was my assistant. I was still a virgin at the time. I hadn't even had sex with a girl. So for me it was just kind of bewildering."

I watched the new episodes on Sunday but I haven't seen any season one episodes. It was pretty good although I'm sure this show is scripted to hell like pretty much all reality TV.

This show & Ghost Hunters are the only reality TV shows I'll watch.

They make no bones about this being scripted, right? They market this very carefully, and they never really call it "reality." I've read that they are portraying characters that do not represent any real personas. Interesting concept. However, I think you may have to take all of this with a big grain of salt. All of the Haim looking strung out/molestation talk may just be make up and writing. Not saying it is, but ..... not saying it isn't.

I'm hoping they air a marathon of this, I loved the show and would like to record it.

Lance Lives

Wow, this show took a big turn. I've heard about this being a show about characters, but not themselves, but I'd feel pretty awkward about making people think I was upset about molestation in my childhood. I'm enjoying the new season so far...it sucks there won't be any new episodes for a few weeks.

nobody is watching? Corey Haim was actually suppose to be in The Lost Boys: The Tribe along with Feldman. they get to the set and Haim starts acting all crazy, slurring his words, complaining he can't remember his lines. he goes back into his trailer alone, tells his assistant to get his bag with his "prescription drugs". then a message comes on the screen saying "Haim forgot he had a microphone on and these are the sounds that were recorded". then you can hear him pouring pills out of a bottle, then you hear a big sniffing noise. needless to say Warner Brothers didn't want him on the set anymore. then the next day he went to therapy and cried about the fact that he wanted his career back so bad and he can't believe he blew it again by using drugs. the guy is a drug addict and instead of all these people who claim to love him actually helping him, they're letting him destroy himself just so they can have their stupid reality show. it's pretty sad. then he got on the internet and read a bunch of negative comments people made about him and almost started crying.

you can check out a clip of it here,
