Aubrey Plaza, TMBWITW, decided to let Kathy Griffin pierce her ears on television. Kathy Griffin isn’t some sort of professional ear piercer at a mall kiosk so she did a terrible job. Watch the video after the jump. Continue reading

Hey, hey, darlings! We’re back for another episode of Kabuki Dressmaking Theater! Last week, the denizens of Dressmaking Hell were tasked with participating in the Unconventional Materials challenge, with a twist! They needed to use plants and hardware! Two kinds of unconventional materials! Triple the ugly, folks, triple the ugly.
Joseph Aaron (what? he had two names?) made a particularly hideous garment. I’m sure he’d have done better had the challenge required him to use cat hair. Anyway, the judges hated his fugly shit and booted him. Continue reading
Here we are in episode 3. The “study” group is off to an Inspector Spacetime Convention with the usual or unusual hijinks. One of these days we might see Study Room F again.
I liked last week’s episode. The one thing I enjoy about the Community Halloween episodes are the costume choices. I love that the writers always put Shirley in unexpected costumes, that Britta always gets an unflattering yet cute costume and Trobed match theirs.
Questions I had from last week’s episode: Continue reading
Hey, everybody! Last week we were introduced to the sewtestants for this new season of Project Runway and got to see how well they can construct garments…and exactly which kinds of crazy they each represent.
Let’s see, there’s that one Native American designer who will not let you forget she’s Native American, because she’s really and truly Native American. She also calls herself “Water Lily.” Okay, then. And the guy who spells his last name “HallmarQ”? What’s up with that? Then there’s the woman from Portland who is hell-bent on embodying every stereotype of the Portland hipster. And then there’s this guy who looks like he will kill you in your sleep and then use your body as his dress form. I think his name is Günter, but who knows? Continue reading
It’s Dance Moms time! Have you been keeping up? In case you haven’t, there has been lots and lots of screaming. All the dancers were replaced and then brought back. Caught up? Good. Continue reading
The television trope of a leading male character being a fat, schlubby funny guy and having a hot, skinny and sometimes younger wife has been around since at least Ralph and Alice Kramden in The Honeymooners. These differences always strike people as odd because studies have shown that long term couples tend to have similar BMIs. This makes sense when people share meals and exercise habits. Certainly couples exist in the world where the husband is a tubalub and the wife is thin, but in situation comedies it’s almost a requirement.
Since a list didn’t seem to exist, here is the full accounting of television shows featuring a fat husband and a skinny wife*. Continue reading
Oh, thank the baby Jesus, this is almost over!
Last week, the Final Four took a thirty minute trip to France, had to sit on the back row at some dull couture event, buy a lot of fabric and make sure they didn’t miss the red eye back to NYC in order to design a couture outfit. The results were…less than inspiring. The judges wisely decided that Joshua needed to be sent packing, leaving Emilio, Anthony Ryan, and Uli as the final three. Tonight, it all ends before Project Runway: Teams debuts. Continue reading
Every December 3rd, around 6:13pm, I stop for a minute and remember the Worcester 6.
On December 3rd, 1999, two homeless people named Thomas Levesque and Julie Ann Barnes were living inside the Worcester Cold Storage Warehouse. The building was abandoned. It was a relic of another age, six stories tall, so close to the elevated Interstate 290 that, if you wanted to, you could reach from the side of the highway and almost touch the façade of the building. Continue reading
Turn that frown upside down. Even though there was recent disappointment in the return date of Community, this video should lift your spirits. It’s available in 720P so you should watch it full screen. Continue reading
This is it, kids: the last new episode of Breaking Bad we’ll see this year. I’m sure we’re all happy we have more to look forward to, but this first half has gone by too quickly! You know the drill: hit the jump as long as you’re watching along with us or don’t mind spoilers! Continue reading
