By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 18 Comments

Columbia Drug Ring Has Cable TV Premiere

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 7 Comments

With a plot ripped from the headlines, Monday’s episode of Weeds brought the hunky Hunter Parrish up to our Morningside Heights campus to confront the leader of a fictionalized Columbia drug ring.
