Dave Seger from Ikea Heights on Doin' It With Ethan

ethan — Fri, 08 Feb 2013 10:53:10 +0000

Dave Seger is the co-creator and director of the hugely popular web series Ikea Heights. The entire series is a parody on a soap opera and was covertly filmed in the Burbank, California Ikea store without their permission or knowledge (most of the time).

Welcome to Ikea Heights, where just like in every other fictional soap opera town, there are your ba

sic murders, extramarital affairs, and historical flashbacks. Except here, there are random customers walking around in the background as they pick out their KAJSA TRÄD duvet covers.

Dave takes us on a tour of the “set” and tells us some of his favorite moments while filming the 7 webisode series completely undercover, well almost undercover, until they got caught a couple of times.

Doin’ It With Ethan heads to the boardwalk. Sonal Shah, from ABC’s TV show Scrubs, attempts to conquer her fear of heights (on a ferris wheel, 264 feet up in the air) with host Ethan Mechare on this weeks episode. They take over a local carnival and talk Scrubs, life, love, cotton candy, and tell people’s fortunes.

And don’t miss an appearance by Unofficial Sidekick Parvesh Cheena.

Orion Cross may be famous for taking his clothes off on camera but today he’s teaching host Ethan Mechare how to make furniture. Unofficial Sidekick Parvesh Cheena (appearing on NBC’s new show Outsourced this fall!) steps in to occasionally reign Ethan in.

Orion Cross has worked in the Adult Entertainment industry for over 5 years and he’s here to teach us that he’s not just a piece of meat.

Ethan and Orion get to work making a side table together, a real homemade table, no Ikea instructions included here. He even cut the wood himself. While they screw and drill (all puns were completely intended in this interview) they talk about Orion’s past films (all have fantastic titles), what his parents think about him being a porn star, and his advice on being good in bed.

In Memoriam: A Tribute To The Christmas Trees We Lost This Year

ethan — Sun, 06 Jan 2013 12:24:34 +0000

Doin’ It With Ethan pays tribute to the Christmas Trees we lost after the holiday season. They were laid to rest at every major street corner, some in dumpsters, and most in back allies. Thank you, Christmas Tree – you selflessly gave so much of yourself for our joy. We will never forget you.

*Special thanks to Melanie Wilbur for the camera work, wardrobe and stunt coordinating.

Robbie Laughlin, co-host of A&E’s new show $100 Makeover and from The Daily Ten on E!, is here!

Mission: Teach Ethan how to make his Famous Turkey Chili.

After a couple of glasses of cheap red wine and several cans of corn they get down to business. Robbie’s chili is full of surprises (including an exploding tomato) and the two chat about Hoarders, rehab, and the secrets of $100 Makeover.

P.S. Check out the dishes in the sink during Ethan’s intro. He usually microwaves or Stedman cooks.

Madonna is Doin’ It With Ethan

ethan — Fri, 30 Nov 2012 13:23:36 +0000

Madonna stops by Doin’ It With Ethan to teach me what the holidays really mean. Oh, and a dance step or two. Yeah, Donna taught me her dance moves to Holiday. No biggie.

For our exclusive interview with Madge we headed to her underground bunker in Los Angeles, which she calls The Zion Lounge. She opens up about her kids, Kabbalah, her new album, and how a cream cheese bagel is appropriate as a Christmas tree ornament.

Happy Holidays from Madonna and Doin’ It With Ethan!

P.S. Nadya Ginsburg is a genius. G-E-N-I-U-S. Check out her other work here. And here. And here.

ethan — Sun, 19 Aug 2012 22:19:20 +0000

Virginia Madsen is here! And we love her! We headed to her bachelor pad where she taught us how to make egg rolls.

V-Mad (as I now call her) talked to us about the Oscars, her amazing performance in Sideways, her documentary I Know A Woman Like That, and her famous egg roll recipe.

There’s also some spanking.

Waxing Man Parts from Current TV

ethan — Wed, 11 Jul 2012 22:46:47 +0000

Ever wonder what a man would have to go through if he had to get everything “down there” waxed off? Well, look no further. Watch 2 brave men take the hit for all men. Ethan and Heath went on assignment (yes, I love saying that) for Current TV to explore the famous waxing salon, Pink Cheeks, in Los Angeles. Cindy, the owner, was our waxologist and she wasn’t foolin’ around. As her website says, “Where there’s hair, we’re here.” And she was everywhere. On us.

Laughing Yoga on Doin’ It With Ethan

ethan — Sun, 27 May 2012 15:46:17 +0000

Remember a couple of weeks ago I did some yoga with my dear friend Anna Geen Proctor? And we kind of all thought yoga was only about getting into sexual positions with our clothes on and calling it excerise. Well, today we headed to a new kind of yoga. Laughing Yoga!

On assignment for Current TV (I really like saying that) I went to a local Los Angeles Laughing Yoga class and tried to figure out what was so funny.
