He followed me from the club where you, er, well, I won’t spoil that too even though it kinda spoiled…anyways, if you haven’t seen the episoide JC-inians, it’s available on demand here.
JC and I on a date at Club Sin before things went, er...watch the episode

Some pics from Sunshineland

As many of you know, I got to visit JC’s studio/house for the season 3 premier of the Fireside Chat a few weeks ago. What you didn’t know is that I took some pics in JC’s actual kitchen. Yes, the place where he makes his coco:
Hope you liked ‘em. If you did, you might also like to see what happened when JC went to do the show:
Hmm, expressing in song what I can’t in words.
Anyways,
’till next time,
XOXO Suzie

Not quite as planned
Feb 27
2010
Well, that didn’t quite go as planned. In fact it didn’t go as I had planned it at all. That Cupid can be tricky! Well, at least it could have been a lot worse, it could have gone as JC had planned – without knowing any better. As for Jenny, while I’m still sure that she’s not right for JC, she does have some talents and isn’t all that bad.
Me interviewing JC! just before the show
Not sure what I’m talking about? Well, I’m referring to the season 3 premier of JC Sunshine’s Fireside Chat, which I attended! Want to know more about what I’m talking about? Well, it’s available right now on demand on Forget The Box TV (just click here).
Now, I did promise you some exclusive behind-the-scenes footage and rest assured loyal Sunshine fans, it is coming – just as soon as I figure out how to throw it on YouTube or some other site. I’ll post it here, promise!
Anyways, follow my advice and watch the season premier. If you already have and want a bit more, then here’s a bit of what happened right after I interviewed JC:
Hope you enjoyed it,
Suzie

The JC Sunshine feminism episode called Know Your Role is available on demand. It’s another real good one, with a couple of YouTube-friendly video parodies such as an old school educational video, a 50s sitcom parody called Cookies and Cleaning and JC talking to his “mom”.
In this episode, directed by Stephanie Lauglin, JC has finally paid off Jenny’s internet bill and now he wants to ask his neighbour out on a date. Problem is, he doesn’t know anything about women. He wants to learn more and tries to in this episode.
The special guest is feminist Laura Burton-Bloom and the interview is a nice serious juxtaposition with the show’s comedy. At the end, though, she gives JC some advice on how to approach Jenny. We won’t tell you what happened, only that it sets up the next episode nicely.
Here’s one of those segments mentioned, Cookies and Cleaning:

Zombies on demand
Nov 14
2009
The JC Sunshine Halloween special was great. There were a few glitches live, but there’s a tighter version on demand now, plus we’re told a more polished edit is on its way!
The episode contains a real, though brief, zombie movie. There are plenty of zombies and even a zombie hunter. In a first for the Fireside Chat, there are even action sequences, fighting and (funny) gore!
Nik Fitt (Marilea Isernia) and JC
Basically, Rex got turned into a Zombie and turned Ricardo into one who then chased JC outside into a zombie apocalypse. He was helped by Nik Fitt (Marilea Isernia, who also does camera and helps write the show) for a while (we won’t reveal too much here) then, poof, back in studio for the interview!
The guest was Velma Candyass of the Dead Doll dancers (think zombie burlesque) and she talked about her group and their campaign to save the main. An excellent episode with an excellent guest.
This is the kind of Halloween special that could maybe become an annual event.

Beam me up, Ricardo!
Oct 16
2009
Season 2, Episode 5, dubbed Return of The Sunshine, is now available on demand at Forget The Box here. As you can see, it is by far the most technologically advanced one yet. They’re really experimenting with higher production values and keep raising the bar higher with each episode, but the core of JC Sunshine remains.
JC Sunshine beamed on board the Enterprise
(spoilers ahead) So JC was rescued right off the bat, getting beamed out of prison by Ricardo, then transported around the Star Trek universe before landing on the deck of a spaceship piloted by Rex. He hosts the show from space as “Commander JC Sunshine” with a litany of Star Trek, Terminator and of course Star Wars references (including a bluescreen attack on the Death Star).
The guest was Marquenzo Madsci, a self-proclaimed mad scientist and paranormal expert. He spoke a bit about himself and his experiments, then answered questions from JC and the audience about his favorite science-fiction series: Star Trek. He prefers The Next Generation and is even learning Klingonese.
JC Sunshine interviews Marquenzo Madsci
Once the interview was over, JC discovered that Rex was missing. Apparently this was due to some sort of transporter malfunction, though JC didn’t seem all that sure that Ricardo didn’t do it because Rex was first officer and he was just chief galley cook. The Ricardo/Rex rivalry subtext is an interesting one and it keeps getting bigger.
Regardless, we were left, after the credits, with a shot of “Rex in Space.” So, this two-parter has turned into a three-part story arc. We’ll have to tune into the next episode on October 25th (a week later than usual) to find out what happens to Rex.
The theme is Halloween and the guest is rumored to be guests, plural (something the Sunshine show hasn’t done before. Supposedly it’s going to be members of the Dead Doll Dancers burlesque troupe, which would be really cool. Keep checking back for more updates!

Episode 4 now available on demand
Oct 2
2009
JC Sunshine season 2 episode 4 found its way online and can be viewed in its entirety on the show’s page at Forget The Box. Episodes 2 and 3 aren’t available yet, but sources inside Forget The Box.
We’ve also located a segmented version on Vimeo which starts here and is also now part of the playlist player we have up on our show page. It’s got high-quality playback (as Vimeo is known for) but it may take a bit to buffer on slower computers (plus part 4 is currently missing).
The Pirate Party’s Rob Britton being interviewed by JC
Some think this is the funniest episode so far. It’s most definitely one of the tightest and offers good production values. The interview with the Pirate Party’s Rob Britton is quite interesting as well and (please watch the episode before reading on) it ends in a cliffhanger!
The arresting officer
JC has been arrested again, this time for copyright violation, the theme of the episode. It happened after the interview and was done by a David Caruso CSI-Miami type guy credited as “Horation Kane”. Clever, I guess they had to change the letters…didn’t want to infringe on any copyright, after all!
You’ll have to tune in to Forget The Box TV this Sunday at 7:30pm eastern to see what happens. No word yet on who the guest will be, but JCSunshine.net has learned that the theme is sci-fi…should be interesting!

Episode 4 recap & welcome to the site
Sep 20
2009
Tonight’s show was great, some may say the best yet!!!
The guest was Rob Britton of the Pirate Party of Canada and in true JC Sunshine style, the comedy dealt with what the Pirate Party deals with, copyright and net issues. Without going into too much detail, let’s just say that it “borrowed” from quite a few sources including Disney, E.T., Taxi Driver and even The Wizard of Oz.
Empty set before JC arrives, find out why when the show’s on demand
The chat was one of the liveliest in recent memory and there were some very pointed questions for Britton. He answered all of them, even the tough ones, with the ease of a politician (considering he’s organizing a political party, no real surprise).
Sources inside Forget The Box Media have told jcsunshine.net that they’ve rushed this episode into editing and it may show up on demand as early as Monday night. We’ll let you know as soon as it appears, so keep checking back.
By the way, welcome to the unofficial JC Sunshine fansite. It’s still in development, but soon we’ll have complete character and guest bios, fun stuff like pics and trivia, a forum and as much actual show content as possible.
For now, you can check out the official JC Sunshine show page at Forget The Box TV.
