Here's everything you need to know before the series premieres on Sunday.

The Premise

AMC's first foray into reality television is "Comic Book Men," a show about the New Jersey comic book shop that Kevin Smith and Jay Mewes opened in the 90s -- aptly named Jay And Silent Bob's Secret Stash -- and the men who work there. It's a place where some of the most knowledgeable comic book experts work, hang out, and has the added benefit of being "the only place in Red Bank I can smoke weed and not get busted," as Smith so gently put it.

The show is largely filmed inside of Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash (or just "The Stash," as devotees refer to it) but also incorporates some road trips (to the flea market, as shown in episode one) and footage of the men in their weekly podcast, "I Sell Comics." Smith is quick to acknowledge the difference between "Comic Book Men" and other reality shows in that they never "break the reality wall," as many reality shows do, with a "confessional" booth or direct interviews with castmates looking into the camera. Instead, AMC suggested they film their weekly podcast to help tie together the plot of the show.

The Cast

While "Comic Book Men" is Kevin Smith's show, it should be noted that he's not involved in the everyday comings and goings at The Stash. He owns the place, but is known for only dropping by approximately once a month, or "every time I'm in town," Smith said. Thus, most of the show revolves around the actual dudes who run the shop: Walt, Michael, Bryan, and Ming.

Fun fact! Bryan is actually the real-life inspiration of Randall, from "Clerks" He's also completely to blame for Smith's love of both hockey and comic books: "He made it cool for me to get into [comics] and that's changed my life." Bryan, a "career slacker" who was hesitant to join the reality bandwagon at first, saying, "I don't want to be Snooki." He was eventually convinced by the money he'd make from the show, which would allow him to finally fix his bum knee. A guy without health insurance who hangs around a comic book shop all day long? Yep, definitely sounds like the inspiration for Randall.

A guy without health insurance who hangs around a comic book shop all day long? Yep, definitely sounds like the inspiration for Randall. nonadult nonadult <big><b>The Inside Scoop</b></big> I attended AMC&#39;s Q&amp;A press event at Caroline&#39;s On Broadway this past Tuesday and if I wasn&#39;t feeling like the series wasn&#39;t reaching out for viewers like me (girls who know nothing about comic books), I still left the event feeling refreshed and excited about the series. After I got over my awe of seeing Kevin Smith, a man I&#39;ve admired since I in the first of many viewings of "Mallrats" as a teenager, I realized how blatantly excited Smith felt about the show. He spoke highly of AMC, their credibility in producing great television dramas ("Mad Men," anyone?), and how many actors would die to get a role on any show on the network, so highly, actually, that he exclaimed, "I don&#39;t know whose dick I sucked but it <i>worked</i>!" I should probably mention that Smith began the press conference by announcing "Sorry. I smoked a joint <i>right</i> before I got here." So perhaps his excitement was a bit, um, amplified but the sentiment remained the same. It seems he&#39;s most excited about the reliability of the show, saying, "The highest compliment you can be paid is &#39;You guys talk about the same shit my friends talk about.&#39;" But not everyone can relate to a group of older, nerdy guys talking about comics all day long. Does he worry about how he&#39;s portraying this world? <blockquote>"In terms of presenting an [geeky] image, I got credibility in that world and I wouldn&#39;t wanna lose it, and I wouldn&#39;t fucking trade it for like, "here&#39;s a stereotypical picture of some geeks who can&#39;t get pussy!" No. I would much rather put a modest portrayal. I love that world. I&#39;m a geek as well."</blockquote> So that brings us to another question: who, exactly, will watch? <blockquote>"If the audience is there, we&#39;ll make more [episodes], man. And if it&#39;s not, I get it. And if it&#39;s not &hellip; I would never bitch about this AMC thing because they put us after "The Walking Dead" -- and if we don&#39;t score there we won&#39;t score anywhere."</blockquote> nonadult nonadult <big><b>The Controversy</b></big> Before heading over to the event, I asked a friend of mine who writes for a science fiction if they&#39;d be attending the same press conference as I and their response went something like this: "Hell no. That shit&#39;s sexist." Hmm, I thought, as it made sense why people might think that, but I wasn&#39;t sold. Inevitably, a reporter asked Smith if he thought his show was sexist at the press event. He explained that the show is ultimately about a "group of friends who have known each other for 25 years" who just happen to be men. In fact, after the pilot was finished, AMC asked that they put out a call for a geeky girl and reshoot the pilot with her included. It didn&#39;t end up working out. <blockquote>"When we originally showed the idea to AMC, they said &lsquo;It&rsquo;s a sausage party,&rsquo; so we said all right, let&rsquo;s bring in a chick. And for the presentation we brought in and shot a chick, and it was wonderful and great, but then AMC, god bless them, said &#39;Well, that&#39;s not the reality of the show."</blockquote> He gave an apology of sorts about the lack of women in their lives: <blockquote>"This is the reality: these dudes work here. Now, we could alter the reality of the show&hellip;but that would feel kind of weird. This is a snapshot of a store where these guys have worked for 20 years, and unfortunately it is a sausage fest."</blockquote> I&#39;m a woman and I didn&#39;t find any of what Smith said particularly offensive, but <a href="http://www.observer.com/2012/02/kevin-smith-on-lack-of-women-in-comic-book-reality-show-thats-not-reality/">others</a> remain unconvinced. I mean: would <i>you</i> like a network throwing a stranger into your mix of lifelong friends and asking you to pretend like it&#39;s the same? No, you wouldn&#39;t, regardless of their sex. Besides, it&#39;s not like there aren&#39;t <i>any</i> women on the show -- they just don&#39;t happen to work <i>at</i> the store. For example, Marilyn Mansfield, the <a href="http://jezebel.com/5831408/meet-tlcs-latest-doll+obsessed-star">crazy doll-obsessed woman</a> featured on TLC&#39;s "My Collection Obsession" shows up in an episode to try and sell her Chucky doll. nonadult nonadult Spoiler alert: in the end, Marilyn can&#39;t bear to sell her "child" for such a low price. Oh, and speaking of spoiler alerts? Smith confirmed that Jay Mewes will appear in at least one episode of season one. <i>Snoochie boochies!</i> <i>Comic Book Men premires this Sunday night on AMC, right after "The Walking Dead."</i> nonadult A Hilarious Moment Of Miscommunication On "Jeopardy!" http://www.buzzfeed.com/mattcherette/a-hilarious-moment-of-miscommunication-on-jeopard “Don't say another word!” On tonight's installment of the “Jeopardy!” College Championship, host Alek Trebek interviewed Duke senior Greer Mackebee about his unusual hobby of building concrete canoes. “How do you get into that?” Trebek asked.

He continued, "The whole gang, everyone's doing it." Despite his quasi-sarcastic tone, we have plenty of other reasons that what he's saying is legit. Last June, David Wain told Vulture that the sequel, if it happened, would be set in the same summer the original film was set in (1981) and would have to feature "40-year-olds playing 16-year-olds." Just a few weeks ago, most of the original cast reunited for a reading of the movie's script for the radio.

Will "Wet Hot" go the way of "Arrested Development" and announce plans for a movie short after their reunion? This super-fan can only hope that the "Wet Hot American Summer reunion of your dreams" is about to become a reality.

Suddenly, all of Mike's failed attempts at hooking up with girls at the club make so much sense.

Via: google.com

HuffPo: Snooki, things got hot and heavy with Deena [another one of the "Jersey Shore" roommates] last season. Do you consider yourself bisexual?

Snooki: I would consider myself bi. I’ve done stuff with girls before. But I would never be with a girl because I like… penis. But I’ve experimented.

HuffPo: What about Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino? What’s the deal? Gay? Not gay?

Snooki: Do you think he’s gay?

HuffPo: It wouldn’t shock me. Whenever he brings a girl home something always seems to go awry and they don’t end up hooking up.

Snooki: And he gives them men’s clothing to wear.

JWoww: And his posture and the way he holds his cigarettes… everything. Listen, I know I keep talking about my best friend Joey, but his husband was closeted for 27 years of his life. And I knew him before he came out. So because of that I know… the signs.

Snooki: Did you know the whole time that he was gay?

JWoww: Yeah! And it drove me nuts! I’m like, “Be happy with yourself!”

Snooki: Was he like, “No, I’m not”?

JWoww: He had a girlfriend! I was just like, “I would love you more if you could be yourself.” I can’t confirm or deny with Mike, but if he was, it would all make sense.

HuffPo: Do you talk to him about it?

JWoww: He brings it up. He’ll say, “People think I’m gay and I don’t know what they’re talking about.”

Snooki: He told me one time, “[All the talk is] making me wonder.”

Via: yidio.com

HuffPo: Was there an exact moment that you can point to when you realized you have a gay following?

Snooki: I always knew. I feel like I get along more with gay guys than I do...

Snooki and JWoww: Girls.

HuffPo: Really?

JWoww: My gay best friend Joey was like, "Do you know that Perez [Hilton] talks about you guys all the time?" We love everybody but Joey was like, "No! You don't get it!" [Laughs] Me and Joey have been friends since I was 16 and we moved to New York together and he's the reason I'm on ["the Jersey Shore"].

Huffpo: JWoww, last year you tweeted that you were upset that gay marriage wasn't legal in New York yet. What are you thinking about the current fight to get it legalized in New Jersey?

JWoww: The same [as I thought about gay marriage in New York]. I was living in New York last year and now that I'm living in Jersey, I want the same thing there. My best friend couldn't get married.

Snooki: I told her to run for president so that everyone could get married. Because I certainly can't [run for president.]

JWoww: I was really upset -- that's what I tweeted about. My friend couldn't get married. He had to get a domestic partnership [at the time] and I was so pissed off about that. I was like, "I want to go to your wedding. You're going to be my bridesmaid and I'm going to be your bridesmaid..."

Snooki: Is he going to wear a dress?

JWoww: I don't know. I hope so. [Laughs]

My best friend couldn&#39;t get married. <b>Snooki:</b> I told her to run for president so that everyone could get married. Because I certainly can&#39;t [run for president.] <b>JWoww:</b> I was really upset -- that&#39;s what I tweeted about. My friend couldn&#39;t get married. He had to get a domestic partnership [at the time] and I was so pissed off about that. I was like, "I want to go to your wedding. You&#39;re going to be my bridesmaid and I&#39;m going to be your bridesmaid..." <b>Snooki:</b> Is he going to wear a dress? <b>JWoww:</b> I don&#39;t know. I hope so.

Am I the only one who finds the whole thing totally disturbing? Apparently, not anymore.

The good people at "Good Morning America" sent intrepid reporter Andrea Canning to McIntyre, Georgia, home of the pint-sized caffeine-addicted star and her mother, June. She sat down for an interview with June and Alana which quickly changed from "me so hyperrrrr!" into some "real talk" about the effects that the "Go-Go juice" (one can of Red Bull mixed with a bottle of Mountain Dew) actually has on the six-year-old. Surprise! Mom wasn't really having it.

It went a little something like this:

June: "You have to have something to energize their body."

Andrea: "Why? Why do you have to, though? For a six-year-old, giving her caffeine and Red Bull? I mean, that's just a lot of caffine and sugar for a little girl."

June: "Um, I mean, it's like I said. There's worse things, far worse things for [her]."

Right. Like heroin! And later:

Andrea: "Do you worry at all that Alana make become addicted to sugar or that she may become overweight?"

June: "No, I don't."

Right, because she's not at all genetically predisposed to becoming overweight? And finally:

June: "There are normal people who give their kids this, so why is it such a big issue with us pageant moms that do it all weekend to keep our kids energized and awake?"

Ah, yes, the ol "But everybody's doing it!" excuse. Toootally justifiable. I, for one, am glad that at least somebody tried to knock some sense into Alana's mom -- even if it probably won't make much of a difference.
