Over at Consumerist, there’s a video of Seth Green that will appear in the ABC show Un-Broke on Friday night.  It’s a take-off on MTV’s Cribs, and shows Green as he takes us on a tour of his frugal crib.  Here’s the link at Funny or Die: Un-Broke: The Seth Green Cribs Edition

I’ve liked Seth Green ever since he played a young Woody Allen in Radio Days.  He was great as Dr. Evil’s son in the Austin Powers movies, and he’s great on The Family Guy and Robot Chicken.  So, his offering frugal financial advice is icing on the cake.

I’m definitely going to check out Un-Broke, and I hope lots of people do, too.   Especially the ones with money problems.
