House of Lies House Of Lies Doesn’t House of Lies Season 1 Episode 4 recap Okay, this is ridiculous. House of Lies isn’t content to simply reinvent the half-hour ‘comedy’ genre and inspire in me slavish devotion, it has to start actually reflecting real life and being relevant, making me its full-on wannabe? This show, if By Duana • Jan 31, 2012 02:55 pm
Style Best SAG JUMPSUIT. You guys. I mean, really. I am not a fan of pale garments. Or neutral garments. My colouring means they look terrible on me, and so I have been conditioned to never desire them and to appreciate only full saturation and degrees therein. I usually glaze over. But this was By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 02:56 pm
Bad Style Best Delayed Gift with Worst Topping – John Krasinksi & Emily Blunt Remember when I ranted back in the day that I didn’t get to see them and their marriage enough? (Click here for a refresher.) That they had an obligation to show off how cute we all knew they were together? That I was entitled to see this? Apparently they By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 02:06 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Michelle Williams reaches the limit? We talk a lot about campaigning here, that actors have to do this or that to secure the nomination and later, the votes. I will leave the intricacies to Lainey, but you all know what I mean. Suddenly stopping at every point on the carpet, smiles for all, revealing tidbits By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 01:54 pm
SAG Awards 2012 Worst Modern Family at the SAGs I realize on the one hand that these guys cannot win. If it’s not Julie Bowen’s sternum being investigated for pacemaker scars, it’s Ariel Winter’s delicate child-flesh too much on display, or Sofia Vergara’s …I don’t know… body bows being thrown all over the By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 01:21 pm
Style The SAG Dexter Table – Jennifer Carpenter & Michael C. Hall Did you see her last night? She didn’t get interviewed but most certainly was shot by the photographers in that gorgeous red that she’s never looked better in. She really has never looked better. Which is why she was able to sit at the Dexter table last night, By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 01:08 pm
Friday Night Lights Worst Goodbye – Coach Taylor I watched Moneyball on the weekend. I mean, it was fine. It was good. Brad Pitt is good. He’s just doing a Coach Taylor impression, though. I don’t want to say a Kyle Chandler impression, because I know Chandler can be other people than just Coach. But of By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 11:52 am
Bad Style Jessica Chastain: Best - or Worst – SAG Near Miss? Man, these girls from The Help are on a SLOG. I was looking up something regarding The Help on the site last night, and I came across a poster in another language, and realized ‘oh yeah’, wide, WIDE release. Lots and lots of travel to promote the movie and many By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 11:24 am
Dumbass Best SAG Snubbing: Kyra Sedgwick While in theory we’re restricting ourselves to what happens at the show, in reality certain truths are self-evident – in this case, that Giuliana (Lainey: Duana keeps calling her Giuliana DePandi which is maybe my favourite thing in life, ever) irritated a wide swath of people far more than usual By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 10:20 am
SAG Awards 2012 Worst SAG Mistaken Identity: Grizz Chapman Ellie Kemper No, I’m not joking. Ellie Kemper was a double-nominee last night, as part of both the casts of The Office and Bridesmaids. And she was mistaken for someone else SEVERAL times. Once, on the carpet during a cutaway, after she’d already been interviewed by Ross (ugh…Ross), she By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 09:58 am
House of Lies House Of Lies Episode 3 House Of Lies Season 1 Episode 3 recap Okay. I warned you. This show is too funny not to get specific, so we’re going to be a little more thorough this time. Marty sleeps while a woman in an ugly sweater rubs his shoulder. He wakes up all ‘Mom, By Duana • Jan 24, 2012 11:54 am
Vampire Diaries We kissed, now it’s weird. Okay, I was walking my dog this week when it suddenly occurred to me that I feel, somehow, like the fourth of the four coffins is Katherine. I get tired of thinking about who-all the Klaus relatives are, but I can wish, right? So this week was my favourite kind By Duana • Jan 20, 2012 12:45 pm
Katherine Heigl Heigling So you read this headline, right? That Katherine Heigl ‘would love’ to go back to Grey’s Anatomy? It’s become a bit of a sport to bash Heigl for things she says in the press, so let’s take this one apart a bit. The Generous Angle Katherine Heigl By Duana • Jan 19, 2012 01:13 pm
House of Lies Always Be Closing I have a colleague, who used to say to another colleague, usually on a Monday morning, “Hey – did you close?“ This of course referred not to business acumen but whether or not he got the amount of action he was hoping for on the weekend. If they’re not already By Duana • Jan 17, 2012 05:27 pm
Style GG Duana’s Best Dressed: Laura Dern This green dress really moved me onscreen, but in the still pictures, it’s less dynamic. Maybe that’s the point of sequins, that they have to be seen in motion to really kick you in the eyeballs. It’s an interesting dress – both super-sexy and a little bit austere. By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 04:37 pm
Golden Globes 2012 GG Worst Happy Face: Claire Danes Behold, a thesis in two parts: Point the first – the physical. Danes and I are of a similar age. But…flatter myself, sure...I think she looks SO much older than me. Part of that can be attributed to the razor-thin demands that we know in Hollywood – the body-or-face choice By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 02:39 pm
