This past week I had the extreme pleasure of interviewing the wildly-funny Eric Martsolf, who this Feb. 27 will be hosting ACME Saturday Night in LA. When the subject of whether Martsolf would ever pull double duty, juggling a web sudser with his Days of Our Lives hunk duties came up (costars Crystal Chappell, Galen Gering and Nadia Bjorlin all appear in Venice) Martsolf informed me he had already appeared in a short-lived web series called Brawn and Glamour.

 Of course I raced to You Tube as soon as I hung up from Martsolf and found just two episodes of the ridonkulously-insane serial. Starring Martsolf's former Passions pals Justin Hartley (Smallville) and Lindsay Hartley (Arianna, DAYS), Brawn and Glamour tells the story of a vapid, former teen starlet, whose series has been cancelled after 14 seasons on the air. All I have to say is after seeing Lindsay Hartley kick the shiz outta that one girl in the first eppy, I will go out to local churches and ask for donations for this 2008 series to start producing new epsiodes ASAP. Funny, funny stuff. Look for my full interview with Martsolf this week! READ MORE
