So its almost 10pm and in 6 hours I have to get up to go to the airport and head on off to the Great White North to the set of The CW’s SUPERNATURAL.
I’m annoyed because as I was packing and realized I left my external iPod power boost at work. That hinders my ability to watch as much video on my iPod as possible. Not pleased.
Thanks for all the emails and online comments for the cast, crew, and creators of Supernatural. I don’t know that I’ll have much time to chat it up but we’ll see what we can do for you all!
Our Top 10 American Idol’s performed again tonight and as usual Sanjaya Malakar sucked it royally! Sucked it so hard that it was good… good and ugly, good and bad, good and vote for the worst worthy once again. It couldn’t be more apparent that he really is just now trying to do whatever it takes to get voted off this freakshow. Which of course, makes us all want him on the show even more. I mean, who on earth could have expected him to come out tonight with a Ponyhawk of 7? Genius… this kid is money!
To vote for the worst, Sanjaya Malakar go ahead and dial 1-866-IDOLS-04
Onto the show. Someone how a singing competition thought it would be a good idea to have Gwen Stefani on. Sure she’s a great entertainer and pop icon but would anyone really say she’s a vocal dynamo? Her charm was always the unruly warble and canine heard only pitch she’s got going for her, none of which classify her as a great vocalist that should be giving singing hopefuls advice.
Many of you know my dislike of Gwen Stefani post Return of Saturn (minus the amazing cover of “It’s My Life”) so it should come to no surprise I said what I said. This however may surprise some… I actually thought she was really good on the show. She was articulate, thoughtful, and gave good comments and advice. She was in no way as involved or invested as LuLu was but she at least took the time to listen and give feedback on each kid. Plus, she didn’t look like a glam-whore and there was no sign of her Hirajuku slaves.
Big News Big Big News! In two days I’ll be on the set of SUPERNATURAL hanging with my boys, The Winchesters!
That’s right gang, Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, and Myself (oh yeah, and a handful of other bloggers) will be spending some time, chillin’ talking about all things evil and rollin’ in that sweet ride of theirs… fighting crime, slaying demons, raising papa from the dead… maybe even a little kissing… SHUT UP, YOU DON’T KNOW!
I know that we’ll be on set during the filming of Part 2 of the Season 2 Finale “All Hell Breaks Loose.” Rumors have been floating around the internet that Papa Winchester (the amazing Jeffrey Dean Morgan) might be part of the finale so fingers crossed that I get to meet Denny as well!
I’m hoping Ellen and Jo will play a role in the finale as well. I love Alona Tal and Samantha Ferris. It’s so crazy because with a cast this size (of 2) everyone else may or may not be around because they are guest stars… always! God what I wouldn’t have given to been there when Tricia Helfer filmed her episode. Incredible.
If you’ve got questions you want the boys to answer let me know in the comments section or email me at the contact page. First on my list, where the hell do these boys find these kitschy motels (in every and all cities) and how much do they cost?
America’s Next Top Model Cycle 8 has really only begun on the CW but next season’s wannabe’s are already strutting their stuff in hopes of becoming America’s Next Top Model.
I previously reported about the open casting for Boston but I wanted to bring you a great article on this past weekend’s open casting in New York City!
NYTimes was there for all the cat walking, cat clawing, and diva attitudes as throngs of gangly whatzitz bitch slapped each other for a spot on ANTM9. Here’s a sneak peek…
Early Saturday morning the line was long and raggedy, erratic and agitated, littered with empty coffee cups and the sleepless faces, which creased in the sunlight, of beautiful women on a casting call for the show’s ninth season.
The line started outside the Park Central hotel at Seventh Avenue and West 55th Street, turned the corner at Broadway and then doubled back onto West 56th Street. That very few of the 1,500 women standing there looked like models, in the very narrowly defined sense of high fashion, did not appear to be of importance. A contrapposto stance and the impatient tapping of high heels suggested that in each posing applicant there existed the confidence of an inner Naomi Campbell.
“I love Naomi because she is a diva,” said Bianca Golden, 18, who towered over the competition standing at 5 feet 11 inches, plus stilettos.
In addition to my blogging duties and my full time job, I work for theIndependent Film Festival of Boston. This is my second year working for the festival and I couldn’t love it more… well unless we had a 24 hour marathon of LOST and HEROES somehow thrown into it.
IFFBoston is celebrating its 5th Anniversary next month and I thought I’d promote our festival right here on my TV Blog. I hope you tv addicts don’t mind, trust me… if you stick with it, you’ll see that there are some TV connections I just can’t deny. We are the largest film festival in New England with 80+ films being screened over our 6 day run in our numerous locations around the city. Last year over 22,000 people came out and this year we’re hoping for more. It’s an amazing and crazy time for all.
Here’s me pimping the festival online. I look like such a dork! Please head on over there so we can make my piece one of their most viewed clips! Why not?
The filmmakers that have attended in the past have really championed our festival for its laid back and community enhancing environment. We love it because the filmmakers that come have an amazing time and really just relax and have fun with it… and go candlepin bowling!
Keep reading to find out what cult tv star who’s not quite an Angel but always Brings It will be coming to the festival this year!
Grey’s Anatomy was new last night and I decided to write a rant instead of a typical “here’s what I thought” type post this morning.
I want to slap someone. I don’t really care if its Shonda Rhimes, Marti Noxon, Izzie Stevens, George O’Malley, or Patrick Dempsey. Any and/or all will do. Last week I really enjoyed Grey’s, it was back in true for an minus the last two minutes of last week, it was a perfect episode.
This week however, it was just crap. Izzie and George. Crap. Don’t like it, shouldn’t have happened, and I don’t want it to even be relevant. How retarded that these two would get together. Would never happen.
I hate infidelity and I hate when it’s prominent in a show. I also don’t drink and don’t think that drinking is an excuse for infidelity at all. Izzie was hideously selfish and for the first time in three years I actually hated her. HATED HER. I wanted someone to slap that smug little face, that interfering and insensitive too blonde haired face.
George dropped so far down my list of favorite characters after last night that I don’t know how they will bring him back. One of my biggest gripes toward the end of last season was that George had become too much of a normal, typical man. He was always this sensitive, somewhat unsure character and they eventually turned him into a douche. Last night was the doucheist of douche moments for George O’Malley.
Did Shonda Rhimes have an idea for a great quirky concept and great character ideas and that was it? I’m starting to think so. She maybe shouldn’t be running a show. I think she got too caught up in the attention paid to her show, her characters, and her work that she dropped it down to the lowest common form of crap because at her core, she’s got nothing but ideas and no execution. Wow, I’m harsh today.
I don’t know, I just feel that Season 3 has been incredibly uneven and that its lost its heart and its fun and its uniqueness.
And while I’m on it, is Eric Dane not THE WORST ACTOR EVER? I don’t know how long I can watch the show if he’s going to stick around. His delivery couldn’t be more flat and his face is harsh. Over him.
Could McDreamy be more selfish? Everyone’s selfish.
I have no ability to form full sentences or full ideas so I’m just going to stop typing. I’m annoyed by Grey’s and I think it might be at the point where the show is actually ruined for me.
TVGuide is reporting that Sci-Fi has greenlit a 2 hour made for television film of Battlestar Galactica. They claim it will have the entire cast involved, but no plot has been revealed yet. Will it follow the current storyline? Will it introduce the spin-off Caprica? Will it explain what happened to Starbuck? Will it involve the whole Adama clan including the dead brother? Will it involve the Final Five Cylons? I can’t stand the possibilities.
Top Model was on last night, and seriously the 8pm hour is too crowded on Wednesdays. I was not home until after 9 so that didn’t help but I was able to watch Top Model, Idol and Lost (Friday Night Lights got pushed until tonight). That’s a good amount of TV considering I wasn’t home until 9.
I’ve got no ability to pick these models. I know another one of my girls didn’t go home last night. I really liked Felicia. I was so sick of Tyra comparing Felicia to herself and then kicking her off for not being 100% on game this week. Seriously, how about we get rid of that wretched twunt Renee or the lifeless and pointless Russian mail-order bride? Why you gotta be hatin’ on the prettiest girl in the bunch?
I’ve also got beef with the editing of the show. This week was the first time all season that we got more than two words out of Felicia and then you kick her out? I knew it was coming because they finally showed that she had personality, talent, and balls – which on reality tv means you’re going home if all the sudden it shows up out of nowhere. They were saving it until you really like a character then BAM. Sorry, gone.
And whats with Tyra’s hair lately? Seriously those oversized shirt sleeve headbands are out of control. Was her weave falling out? What’s the deal there?
Lastly, how tactless was it for them to have a death shoot just days after Jael’s friend died? Granted, production schedules are planned well in advance and you can’t just switch the shoot but someone should have been there to tell Jay about it so he’s not all annoyed and like, “What’s your deal Jael?” Um, maybe she can’t get into the shoot because she’s lying there like the corpse her idiot friend really is. Seriously.
If they don’t kick out Renee next week, I might have to find a way to have her OD.
Forget what your TVGuide or your Tivo tells you, tonight at 9pm on ABC there IS a NEW episode of Grey’s Anatomy. ABC is airing a new Grey’s to help give their crapfest October Road a second week of good numbers. Originally, tonight’s episode was the repeat “Whisper to a Scream” which will now air next week.
All I know is that we better find out that Izzie and George DID NOT do the nasty last week. I hate this development almost as much as the development of Burke still being alive.
I am excited to see Callie’s parents tonight! Actor Hector Elizondo guests as Mr. Torres. I wonder if he arrives in a suit made of cash? I wanna see where this Callie Torres money comes from and I want to see Mr. Torres torment little cheating Georgie.
So I know noone really wants to relive the singing, but damnit its worth watching this video over and over because we get to see this completely unstable tweener cry her eyes out over and over!
Oh yeah, and there are glimpses of Sanjaya’s sister in there so you straight boys will enjoy that!
The Man From Tallahassee, holy shit! I don’t know if I’m a sucker that loves LOST blindly or if this show really is as amazing as I think it is but hot damn… THE MAN FROM TALLAHASSEE!!!
John Locke is a tragic figure, one that I’ve loved since Day 1. He’s kinda like Col. Tigh on Battlestar in that he’s an old school hardass. Unlike Col. Tigh though, I love John Locke! He’s very flawed. He’s a wounded puppy. He’s insecure and abused yet unbelievably strong willed and determined in his new skin.
I’m not gonna lie to you, I was in awe at the levels of hell Locke’s Dad once again put him through. I mean, he’s already given up his fiance, his dignity, his sense of self, and his kidney now the man takes his ability to walk? That’s rough. I guess we don’t have to worry about him winning Father of the Year anytime soon. HELLO!
LOST once again did it to me… I cried this week. Not like a sobbing bitch or anything but I’m not gonna lie, I got teary eyed twice. Locke has just gone through so much over the last three seasons that it really pains me that mor than anyone we’ve seen this man’s spirit die and be reborn again only to be once again taken away with the final reveal tonight! It’s a really heartbreaking story and this island really does mean salvation for Locke. It’s a place where he can walk again, he can be more of a man than he ever was in real life and a place that offers him glimpses into humanity that give him hope and faith. It’s quite amazing what this island has done for him and its touching to see how different his real life was from his island life.
That’s why it pains to see that one of the biggest things the island brought him, escape, came crashing down tonight when Ben showed Locke what that big box of an island brought him… HIS DAD! The Man From Tallahassee that Ben refered to earlier in the episode.
SANJAYA MALAKAR, Welcome To The American Idol Tour!
Somehow, someway we did it America, we got Sanjaya into the Idol tour, guaranteeing his imperfect and damn near unlistenable voice will torment tens of thousands across the nation all summer long!’
I’m not gonna lie though, I damn near had a heart attack when I realized that Chris Richardson was in the bottom two. Oh hell no! Do you realize that I had the biggest moment of panic. The OH GOD WHAT DID WE DO moment passed over me, I felt faint, and my knees buckled a little. Okay, so maybe they buckled at the size of his biceps but damn, I got the vapors.
Not that I think Stephanie Edwards deserved to go home, because this is a singing competition but if America voted on outfits, she really was the worst! That blue gown was not a winning look so I can’t really blame America for sending her home.
I feel calmer now. I’m not kidding when I tell you that I was panic’d realizing we may have ruined cutie patootie’s chances.
Tonight at 8pm on NBC, the phenomenal freshman series FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS returns! There are only four episodes left this season and tonight it kicks off with new episodes right on up to the finale on April 11th!
If you’re not watching FNL you’re a douche. That being said, Bravo is running a bunch of episodes on the weekends to allow people to catch up. FNL is on iTunes so you can download the season. Worst case scenario, wait until this summer and buy/rent the dvd’s of the fraktastic first season and be prepared to have your mind blown! Then watch Season 2 (with luck, we’ll have a season two).
Tonight’s episode “Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes” finds the Taylor clan in further turmoil. As McCoach ponders the college coaching job at TMU, his family falls further apart. Julie, while being a good kid, is in way over her head with her relationship to QB1 Matt Serecen. She lets everyone know that she’s not planning on leaving Dillon or Matt anytime soon. Oh no she didn’t. Tami Taylor will grab her by those cute bangs and smack the hell outta that girl. Hell, send Smash’s Mother in for a good talkin’, Julie will be packing before the hours up!
And I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news, but it looks like crip Street might not be hearing good things about his chances at making the National Quad Rugby team. I don’t care what happens to Jason as long as he kicks Lyla to the curb.
It’s Wednesday and although our favorite show Veronica Mars is on a little break until May, I wanted to take the time to let you know that while the end of Season 3 is right around the corner, you can have your thoughts of Season 3 live on forever… on dvd!
I was lucky enough to have the priviledge of attending the Veronica Mars Bloggers Day last year and so I consider myself an uberfan. Because I’m an ubergeekfan, I was asked to record a video proclaiming my undying love for all things Veronica that could be included on the Season 3 DVD’s when they come out. I know, right?!!!!! Amazing.
There’s nothing better than me and a camera folks, let me tell you that! Now, I don’t know if my ranting and raving will make it onto the dvd’s or not, but this is a really cool opportunity. I mean, hello, everyone needs to see my face on their dvd. I tried to convince Rob Thomas to have a separate disc with just my mug on it… don’t think that went over too well.
If you’re interested in creating a video to send to Rob Thomas that might make it onto the Season 3 DVD’s to be released later this summer/early fall then keep reading!
