Vampire Diaries Elena is…one of those Vampire Diaries Season 3 Episode 15 recap This episode was called “All My Children”. It’s amusing to me primarily not just because Esther had five and planned to off them all, but in the way that the writers get to play with their character toys, pulling some in, putting By Duana • Feb 17, 2012 10:01 am
Smash Feverish Smash Smash Season 1 Episode 2 recap Welcome to the Smash review, slightly feverish edition. I say that because I am, and I hope you’ll excuse any typos, but also that’s how this week’s episode felt. A little bit manic, which isn’t surprising, given the break-neck speed By Duana • Feb 14, 2012 03:45 pm
House of Lies House of Boredom House of Lies Season 1 Episode 6 I did a terrible thing recently. I read some spoilers of this show, a couple of episodes on. So maybe this is why I found this episode so bland – it’s not where I know the show’s going. Or maybe it was By Duana • Feb 14, 2012 01:14 pm
BAFTA 2012 Worst BAFTA Eyeroll - Shailene Woodley (I should check whether I’ve done ‘worst eyeroll’ before. I feel like it’s becoming a popular category). Let’s discuss Ms. Woodley for a second. She landed on that most…average of teen shows The Secret Life Of The American Teenager. Do not try to tell me that By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 06:52 pm
BAFTA 2012 Best BAFTA Mystery: Kristen Wiig Are you KIDDING me with this? Are you joking about what Kristen Wiig wore to the BAFTAs? Please investigate below… She looks like a fairy princess Vanna White. And I can’t just accept this; I need to find some sort of conspiracy theory in it, apparently. Why is she By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 06:43 pm
BFFs Best Random Duo: Daniel Radcliffe & Octavia Spencer I cannot tell you how much these pictures make me laugh. This is what happens in Hollywood. You are Daniel Radcliffe, barely out of your teens, and you are there because Harry Potter, your stunningly successful magic franchise, is up for some final awards, none glamorous, and which will require By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 06:28 pm
BFFs Best Date to a British Awards Show: - Jon Hamm Do you think he’d be a good date? As soon as Lainey and I talked about the BAFTAs I got all panicky: “Where is she? Is she here?” And apparently, she wasn’t. She being Jennifer Westfeldt, who is absent as often as she’s with him. \I don’ By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 06:06 pm
Bad Style Worst BAFTA Wrapper: Christina Ricci This gold dress is the kind of thing that fits my mental description of the type of dress that should be called a ‘wrapper’. You know? “I threw on a wrapper and smoked a cigarillo.” Apparently the woman wearing my wrapper is a flapper . Anyway, it’s a whole lot By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 05:35 pm
Girlcrushes Notes on a superstar She loves her life. That’s obvious. She was so delighted with her producers and the adorable boyfriend who was sort of affably out of the whole thing. She screeched at her mum in her South London twang, and if you haven’t watched her 60 minutes interview with Anderson By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 12:19 pm
Dumbass Be Angry with the Academy I just want you to think about why it was okay. Why it was okay to have a man who beat a woman celebrated, not once but three times. So many people have to come together to make this happen. Dozens approve a lineup, more get to see it and By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 11:27 am
Bad Style Katy Perry at the Grammys 2012 What an awful dress. Really, with everything available to you, you choose this? What does this say about what you want to do with your Grammy night? Katy Perry never chooses a dress by accident so she must want this to do something. Some sort of Betty Draper In Repose By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 11:11 am
Grammy Awards 2012 Alicia Keys & Bonnie Raitt I liked the Grammy set. I should have said that. Did you freak out when they didn’t include Etta James in the In Memoriam package? A lot of people did. I assumed that this performance off the top -- one that I bet was in place before all the By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 09:38 am
Vampire Diaries Mop Your Brow Vampire Diaries Season 3 Episode 14 recap Whoo. Whew. Is everyone OK? Let’s calm and ease in by talking about these Entertainment Weekly covers. I mean, damn. I obviously prefer the Elena/Damon one (and discussion on the symbolism of the white sheet can go on for hours), because By Duana • Feb 10, 2012 10:52 am
Debra Messing Smash Smash season 1 episode 1 recap Does everyone who loves musical theatre get addicted in the same way? I assume so, right? You go to some performance or other of something at the high school or downtown, not really thinking about it, and then, all of a sudden, you have By Duana • Feb 07, 2012 11:29 am
House of Lies Obligatory ‘House Of Cards’ Title Here House of Lies Season 1 Episode 5 recap How are you guys doing with this show? Am I the only one? Every time I worry about something that’s going on, some development I’m not sure about, there’s something that just tickles me so much I’m delighted. By Duana • Feb 07, 2012 10:23 am
Vampire Diaries The Vampire Diaries Season 3 Episode 13 recap Before we get to the recap proper, thank you all for your emails, especially last week when we were in withdrawal. Brooke writes a lot but wanted me to know about Matthew Davis’ (Alaric) Twitter this week. Did you guys see this? Apparently the man himself has been asked why By Duana • Feb 03, 2012 12:56 pm
