Mr. Deity Gives Us A Sign


...A sign that he gets quite miffed when people try to make a quick buck with bogus reproductions of his product. It appears he is also pretty picky (and prickly) about his brand indentity.
Some hack's billboard, (shown,) reads: "In a bookstore near you...Feeling Lost? Let My Book Guide You. - Mr. Deity."

Episode 9 has finally made it to YouTube. (Regarding ongoing technical troubles with YouTube: When the Mr Deity crew first managed to get the high quality Quicktime / 2:1 ratio video frame up, YouTube screwed that format up. It seems Grouper.com is capable of delivering better quality video, more easily... although in a perhaps less friendly viewer environment.)
Has Mr. Deity's "let's mess with his cable tv" idea bitten him back?!

Give us a Sign! Were is Episode 9?

The secret, kids, is that apparently Mr Deity is not quite ALL powerful. It seems that because of technical difficulties with YouTube, Mr Deity has popped up, temporarily, on something called Grouper.com. You can search for Mr Deity there. (hehe) ...or "Click on the Pic" or the link here, to finally get your Mr Deity fix. Enjoy Episode 9 "Mr Deity and the Book"

Evidence the Deity Too Human for Comfort


In Episode 2, the Really Big Favor, Mr. Deity is seen pitching his concept to Jes.
Did you you get a look at the Deity's artwork? No wonder J. was thinking he was getting Punk'd! Mr. D appeared a mite embarrassed too... looked like he was about to snatch this pathetic "storyboard" away from the Boy at one point. Honestly, something that drives me crazy about these BigTime Heavenwood producers is they think they can draw. Maybe if Mr. D had sent away to the Famous Artist Correspondence School, things would have ended up better around here.   Je-SSEE !

Yahweh or the Highway


Can you imagine how difficult it was for the Deity to write the rules that would work for the entire span of human history? I've been needing a Mr Deity fix so long, (where was it?), that I'm going right now to catch a glimse at how it might have been done... in Episode #8 Mr. Deity and the Top Ten now on YouTube. +See the very first Mr. Deity action/stunt scene!

Does this guy really look like an assassin?


The hit man Lucy allegedly hires in EPISODE #7, Mr Deity and the Tour de Hell is this guy. What people don't realize, besides how to pronounce Nietzsche, ("NEE-chee"?, "NEE-chuh"?...), is that he never actually said "God Is Dead". The incident in question was a mishearing by a drunk patron at Nietzsche's favorite nightspot. Upon seeing how few of his boozing philosopher-friends were out that night, Nietzsche really said: "Gawd, it's dead!" (Stay tuned for an anticipated "Mr. Deity" episode featuring a NEW character from the OLD Testament, to find out how the name "Job" will be pronounced.)

Not the Lucy You are Thinking Of


A friend thinks that Lucy/Lucifer (Amy Rohren) "Looks HOT" in both episodes she appears in so far...
Although I don't really swing that way, I have to agree. I also think she too has a keen "design sense", the Blue Dress occasionally adding a nice contrast to her warm-hued abode. But what's that sound in the background? Is that a gaffer finishing up his lunch and balling-up the leftover Saran wrap? While I love the sound of where Mr Deity hangs out above the firmament, (reminds me oddly of Star Trek or maybe 2001: a space odyssey ), I'm just thinking that along with the warm glow of split brimstone she could add some nice ambiance with a sound kinda like this one from the freesound project....but something anyway with a bit more of a nice low-rumble of a big bonfire rather than a "snap, crackle, pop". Wait, was that "product placement" right there?

SHOCKING!
Mr Deity Puts Some Of Us In the Same Pot


The guy on the left is TV star Merv Griffin, the humorless dude on the right is Pol Pot, who I can't manage to make a joke about at the moment. (Look up Genocide in any dictionary.)
Anyway, both these pictures were taken sometime around the 1970's... What possible link could there be? Before you go making up creative conspiracy theories check out EPISODE #7, Mr Deity and the Tour de Hell.

Random Signs from the Aether

  • Sarah of "Sarah and the Goonsquad" says the actor who plays Jesse/Jesus (Sean Douglas) is "kinda cute"... Is she practicing the art of understatement?
  • I noticed a couple weeks ago that Mr Deity has some German fans of the apparently atheistic persuasion (apostates!). Now he's getting fans in Holland... er 'scuse me; the Netherlands.
  • Joe of the irreligious blog "Joe.My.God" (Who I suspect, unlike Pastor Ted, is possibly one of those COMPLETELY homosexual types), says that the person of Mr. Deity is "nelly". I take extreme offense at this because it's the same as saying Mr. Deity is gay. Listen you heathen, Mr. Deity couldn't possibly be gay... (but then come to think of it, how could Mr. Deity be a heterosexual dude exactly? I mean, would he have the right parts?)
  • That said, I do like the idea of God (er, Mr. Deity) portrayed as a bitchy, self-involved Hollywood producer, even though I'm not fond of stereotypes exactly. (And I know, Dalton is I guess, more likely portraying Mr. Deity as a kind of cosmic Hollywood director.)
  • I have it on a higher authority (Hello Pat Robertson?) that Dalton and other cast and crew aren't in Hollywood, but ARE in Southern California, just scattered hither and yon. (Must make it tricky on a limited budget.)

OMIGOD! THIS IS FUNNY (QUALITY) STUFF!

How strong is your faith? ("Faith in what?" some of you ask... Jesse!)
Mr. Deity is a brilliant, loving satire of the entity we humans have long looked up to.
While I happen to be an agnostic, many faithful folks and even a few God-forsaken atheists have been known to enjoy this "start up" comedy series.
I've decided to take it upon myself to help share the GOOD NEWS!
(By the way, that's the unofficial, un-authorized good news... do I need any other disclaimers?)
Enjoy
