Portlandia, the nominally Portland-specific but essentially all-purpose alt-culture-skewering sketch comedy show from the wonderful minds of fellow lifechampions Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein, is returning for a second season.
There’s a new preview clip available, titled “Wanna Come To My DJ Night?” It documents the tyranny of everyone you know and your mother having a DJ night, through the zeitgeisty lens of the impending zombie apocalypse that is queued up for 2012. Cinéma vérité, basically. To watch it, you must “Like” Portlandia on Facebook. Up next: A Portlandia sketch about artists forcing you to “Like” things on Facebook.
UPDATE: Here’s another preview of the season, where Fred & Carrie take on dog parks.
Dog parks and DJ nights, cool. Next up, Fred & Carrie make fun of the inside of my apartment.
Portlandia is back on Fridays at 10PM starting 1/6 on IFC. For the completists, go back and get to know ThunderAnt, which is to Portlandia what On A Friday is to Radiohead.

Seriously though, when’s your next DJ night Amrit?
It’s on hiatus until I work out the kinks in this bhangra/Rachmaninoff/4AD playlist. (Seriously I haven’t been publicizing Girl/Boy Songs lately and also not doing them regularly, but if there’s an egg-noggy edition in store I will email you! Hi Nate!)
It’s very ironic that you have to “like” it in order to know if you like it… Especially since the video doesn’t seem to be working (or maybe it’s blocked in the UK)
