Survivor: Fans vs. Favorites, Week 12: The Infected Finger of Fate

May 1, 2008 Jill Klitz

The scenes from last week’s episode show Parvati calling the female alliance the “Black Widow Brigade,” and Natalie describing blindsiding Jason as “flossing my teeth with his jugular.” But today the women show a softer side when they realize that James may have to leave the game due to a finger injury; although James was one unplayed immunity idol away from being voted off last episode, the women now pout that they don’t want him to go. Granted, some of the women’s reactions could have just been politeness — Cirie tells the camera that, being a nurse, she should feel more compassionate […]

Showtime Places Its Premium On Headline-Grabbing Series

May 1, 2008 Lori Acken

On a blustery March evening, cast members of Showtime‘s sumptuous ratings hit The Tudors held court in a midtown Manhattan hotel, surrounded by network execs, industry insiders and media critics nursing “Off With Her Head” martinis in a room gilded with portraits of the actors in costume and replicas of the exquisite garb. After everyone had an opportunity to confirm that Jonathan Rhys Meyers’ pout really is that pillowy, Natalie Dormer’s waistline really is that wispy and the show’s legendary new pope Peter O’Toole’s presence really is that papal, the party moved to a nearby theater for a first look […]

American Idols and Cubic Zirconia

April 30, 2008 Ruth Boulet

Gotta start with a cheesy group number featuring our final 5. The choreographer has completely given up. The contestants just needed to sit in a certain order when they start with ‘Cracklin’ Rosie.’ Then they had to step-touch to ‘Song Sung Blue.’ They also wow us with ‘Brother Love’s Traveling Salvation Show.’ David Cook brings the creepy by sounding like a charlatan preacher man. Nice. Constantine Maroulis and Gina Glockson are working on American Idol Extra, so they’re shilling. Constantine tries to do the stare into the camera. He can’t really do it. I think his extra doughiness is throwing […]

ANTM Goes Gladiator

April 30, 2008 Ruth Boulet

by WindUpDoll Whitney thinks she comes off as fake because she’s nervous. Fatima thinks the girls are jealous of how strong she’s getting. She also talks about how even she forgets about Katarzyna, and she lives with her. Anya is confused by the TyraMail. Anya seems like she would be confused by many things. The girls are taken to a field with what we assume are ruins and there are several ‘gladiators’ fighting. The girls get their own lessons in gladiator fighting, which, of course they have to combine with looking fierce. Fatima is getting confused and admits she doesn’t […]

Gene Wilder Receives Honors From TCM This Month

April 30, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Say his name and you’re likely to conjure up any number of images. Young Frankenstein. Willy Wonka. Leo Bloom of Bialystock & Bloom. Gene Wilder has been a fixture of moviegoers’ memories for decades, and this month, TCM honors him and his work with Role Model: Gene Wilder. In an extensive interview, Alec Baldwin engages Wilder about his storied career. The tribute also will include screenings of two of Wilder’s most famed collaborations with writer/director Mel Brooks, The Producers (1968) and Blazing Saddles. We couldn’t wait for Role Model, so both to promote it and celebrate Wilder ourselves, we got […]

American Idols Come To America Today

April 29, 2008 Ruth Boulet

Ryan Seacrest is wondering if anyone will lose their cool tonight. God willing, someone will. Some chick who looks like Finola Hughes is in the audience. Ryan appeals to us to vote, vote, vote, just like they do in Chicago. So tonight is Neil Diamond night. He’s very sparkly. Ryan mentions that his first number one was ‘I’m a Believer’ for The Monkees. Oh, yeah. Kristy Lee Cook is wishing she were here to “Come Into America” today. Neil has had some work done. It’s not severe, but he’s rather smooth for having as long of a career that he’s […]

How I Met Your Mother: “The Goat” Recap

April 29, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Posted by Mike Before we get started, it’s worth mentioning that the “Sandcastles in the Sand” music video from last week is currently available as a free download at the iTunes Store. So go get it before they start charging for it. We’ll wait till you get back. OK, so, it’s Ted’s 30th birthday and he’s got a big story to tell about a goat. Wait till you hear it. It’s incredible. But first, there’s another story that needs to be told. One that started at the end of last week’s episode, when Barney and Robin made out. Well, they […]

One Tree Hill: The Slippery Slope Continues 15

April 28, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Posted by: haro1d And the knot gets pulled just a little tighter. But that’s about it. The quick recap: Li’l James had a birthday. Brooke (and Peyton, by extension) found out that being a mom isn’t all cutesy bootsies — there are diaper wipers, crying and projectile vomiting, too. Peyton’s recording studio was in the works, Skills was harboring guilt for letting the wicked nanny take off with Jamie at Lucas’ would-be wedding and Millicent let her new roommates know that she could be one of the guys. Jamie’s birthday had a triple dose of creepiness: Deb hired a clown. […]

"E:60": Mike Tyson, Horse Cloning And Olympic Grief

April 28, 2008 Ryan Berenz

Posted by Cubicle QB Features on the April 29 (7pm ET) edition of ESPN’s E:60 sports newsmagazine series: Mike Tyson Inside the boxing ring, Mike Tyson has fought one highly publicized battle after another. He has served time in prison, battled addictions, made and lost millions of dollars and, ultimately, watched his career as the world’s greatest heavyweight boxer disintegrate into a sideshow. Now at 41, Tyson, one of the world’s most recognized athletes, is entering a new phase of his life. He is living under court-mandated sobriety with monthly drug and alcohol testing after spending much of last year […]

My Name Is Earl: Killerball

April 28, 2008 Ryan Berenz

Posted by Ryan Yeah, I’m a few days late with the Earl recap. Better late than never, I suppose. But given the quality of this episode, I’m not so sure. Regrettably, The Hickeys still isn’t canceled. Earl’s now dreaming that he and Billie are old and tired … much like this storyline. The hospital wants Earl off their hands. So they offer Randy either long-term care for Earl at a county medical facility or a one-time payment of $2,000 in Camden Cash good at four area businesses (one of which is paintball!) if he just takes care of Earl himself. […]
