Spoiler alert?
The mysterious ending of the third and final installment of Flying Solo has the My Damn Channel offices running around screaming in curious cries of "What does this mean??"
Could this be a hint of what's to come from "Easy to Assemble"? Will Illeana be stranded in the wilderness to fight for her survival? If so - our screams may be fearful...
Or...
Could the sudden appearance of Bjorn Epstein be a hint that there may be a zombified Spärhusen reunion? (Excitement screams)
Nah... That's too surreal...
Maybe it'll be a reenactment? Ooooh - or maybe (just maybe) we'll get to see more old footage from their days together before their mysterious plane crash... Plane crash?
Oh no. Screams of excitement just became screams of fear again - not enjoying the thought of plane crashes while our beloved IKEANS are suspended over Sweden.
There is so much screaming going on over here, I'm afraid the offices downstairs may call security to dismantle us.
Mysteries are just too exciting. Taking a deep breath.. ordering pizza..

In the spirit of Tupac and Elvis - the 70's rock group Spärhusen is releasing an album many years after their presumed and mysterious death.
The 12-track, limited edition album, Best of Spärhusen is now available on iTunes and includes their classic hit Apples and Fish.
After Olf Nystrom and Gert Forseberg were feared dead following their tragic plane crash in 1974, the world grieved along with the band's one surviving member, Beirget Kattson. A reincarnation of the "almost great band of Sweden" is rising like....what is the name of that bird?
My Damn Channel has exclusive never-before-seen footage of Spärhusen from 1972 with their manager Bjorn Epstein, and the fiercest producer in all of Sweden at the time, Würst Fierren, quite famous for his "whale of sound."
Visit the iTunes Store today to get this existential masterpiece.

Tag - you're ALL it. Everyone listed above is Flying High. Advertising Age just called Easy To Assemble "the most-watched sponsored web series."
Illeana Douglas had a vision about how to make the best possible films directly for the web - for fans - for actors - and for one very visionary sponsor: IKEA.
There's proof that Illeana was right. Everyone keeps coming back for more.
Today marks the premiere of the Easy To Assemble mini-series event: "Flying Solo."

With the big premieres of Spärhusen and Easy to Assemble season 2 quickly approaching, we started thinking about the lovely nation of Sweden and all the wonderful things it has brought us. We're assuming you guys may not know everything (or maybe anything) about the country squished somewhere between Finland and Norway. So, here are a few educational facts about this Scandinavian gem!
--Sweden is called "The land of the midnight sun" or "The land of the Vikings". We’re thinking is should be called "The Land of Apples and Fish" or "The Land of Ikea"…but that’s just us.
--The Swedish alphabet has 3 more letters than the English alphabet; they are å, ä and ö. We're wondering how this changes the ABC song...
--One of Sweden’s most famous exports is the family friendly Volvo driven by soccer moms all over America. The soccer-mom in Sweden is known as the latte-mama. This is due to the Swedes’ obsession with coffee as they consistently rank in the top 5 for countries with the highest coffee consumption per year. A coffee break is known as a “fika”. “Fika” can be used as either a verb or a noun (i.e. “let's have a fika” or “shall we fika?”). This is similar to the English word “dance” or “shit” (i.e. “this is shit” or “I need to shit”).
--Legendary actresses Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman are both from The Land of Apples and Fish! Actor Gunnar Björnstrand, also hails from Sweden (not really sure who he is but he’s got an awesome name so therefore we included him).
--In the 1970’s, the Swedish band ABBA gained worldwide popularity. According to the always truthful and trustworthy Wikipedia.com, “Sweden is the third largest music exporter in the world, with over 800 million dollars in 2007 revenue, surpassed only by the US and the UK”. Obviously, with the highly anticipated release of Spärhusen’s “The Best of Sparhusen” these numbers are likely to increase.
--Finally, in Sweden dates are written Date/Month/Year unlike in America where we insist on being different from the rest of the world and writing Month/Date/Year. Therefore to avoid any confusion Spärhusen and Easy to Assemble Season 2 will be debuting on My Damn Channel on 8/10/2009 for the Swedes and 10/8/2009 for the Americans.
