Bravo TV | Close, But No Cigar I’m a fan of Top Chef. And as anyone who reads my blog knows, I don’t subscribe to cable. So what does a cable-free Top Chef fan do? I watch on Hulu. Usually, the day after the show airs, I go to Hulu and watch the latest episode. Unless of course it’s not there. Apparently, Bravo won’t post Episode 6. Why? Here’s what it says on Hulu: During the month of July, Hulu expects to offer episodes 3, 4, and 5 of Season 7.These 3 episodes will be available through July 31. Hulu can offer a select number of full length episodes from Bravo’s lineup each calendar month. The episodes featured and when they are posted are at Bravo’s discretion. So last night, instead of watching Top Chef on Hulu (along with the ads that help Bravo’s bottom line), I decided to go to a third party site to watch an unauthorized stream. Note to Bravo: It’s really great that you syndicate a lot of your content to Hulu. I really appreciate it. But arbitrarily posting some episodes while excluding others is just a bad idea. So please, make up your mind, are you embracing online streaming or not?

I have no idea what I’d use this for, but I love the concept. thedailywhat: Terrific Sticky Tape of the Day: Hinge-themed packing tape by South Korean design collective mmiinn (AKA Jeong-Min Lee and Hyoung-Min Park). No word yet on pricing or availability, but yatzer suggests more info to come this fall. [superpunch.]

This photo of a crisis command center was posted on BP’s homepage. Impressive, no? It would be more impressive if it wasn’t photoshopped. Check out this post for the evidence. (via mediaite)

Mad Men Season 4 on iTunes Very excited about the new season of Mad Men. I’m also looking forward to watching the entire season (less than 24 hours after each episode airs) on iTunes for just $20. I’m happy to pay for premium content, I just refuse to do it via a cable company. HBO, are you listening?
