"Smoke"

KCWKCW Posts: 1,334 ✭✭✭
Was channell surfing last night and came across "Smoke". Has anyone seen this show? Apparently its a series (about cigars and smoking cigars). Actually what I saw was Alan Rubin opening (for the first time) a box of Prensados. When he opened it, it looked to me like the wrapper was all F'd up on a few of them... (If this has been on for a while, I'm gonna feel like an idiot).

    I see the Wealth Channel on my guide, but it doesn't come in. Guess they know my secret.
    How much of the show did you watch?
  • Just put it on my dvr!

    I saw the very end of the Alec Bradley show and saw some of the Beverly Hills Cigar Club show (but that was more of a Cigar 101 show. But still was cool that a TV show about cigars was on).

    Yeah, I actually caught both of them last night. I had never heard of the Wealth Channel and didn't know I got it. It must be new but it looks pretty low budget so far.

    The first episode was pretty good. Had Alan Rubin at one of Nestor Plasencia's farms checking out tobacco and explaining the in's and out's of growing, curing, fermenting and rolling tobacco to the fairly attractive yet somewhat air-headed host. Pretty cool to see all of that.

    The second episode however, was in some exclusive Bererly Hills cigar club. The host asked some dude to explain the proper way to light a cigar and he proceeds to tell her you gotta lick both ends of it first, the goes down on it like Jenna Jamison. I wrote that episode off right then and there....lol

    I almost forgot, they had trivia questions before commercial breaks. The 'best' one was "Are cigars really rolled on the thighs of virgins?" I $hit you not, that was their trivia question and they weren't really trying to be comical or sarcastic about it. And of course to my dismay, the answer was "No".

    I don't have the wealth channel... Time Warner Cable can't even keep a single Disney Channel, how are they going to have a channel called "Wealth"?

    It looks to me that Adrien Brody is on the front cover of the new one..... I've often wondered about Krieg's Avatar

    That is a pretty famous Old Wives Tale about the cigar industry.
