Flight of the Conchords released their most recent album.
As many of you have figured out by now, I just can’t get enough of Bret and Jemaine these days. For starters, I just bought the first season and then had to purchase their new album. I took a trip up to Portland, ME yesterday and couldn’t […]

Album Review - Flight of the Conchords: Hee-larious and Tear-inducing Laughter!
Angie Isn’t Afraid to Shoot You. Seriously.
In a recent interview, the very-pregnant-due-any-day Angelina Jolie made it clear that she wouldn’t hesitate to pick up a gun to protect her fam from an intruder.
The mother of four (soon to be six), along with her live-in boytoy Brad Pitt, is currently residing in a palatial French mansion, and preparing to give birth to […]
Gervais’s Office comes to America and a new cast shines
For the former Daily Show “correspondent” and talented star, Steve Carell (who’s acting abilities, incidentally, shine the most when he takes on more subdued roles, as in the case when he played a gay, Proust scholar in Little Miss Sunshine), the opportunity to star in the American Office, assuming the same role that Gervais had […]
Rewind to the First Season: Flight of the Conchords Episode 1, “Sally”

Denise Richards has (sigh) a new reality TV show on E! Denise Richards, It’s Complicated (ahem) debuts this coming Monday (May 26th), and, given the title, Richards stars as none other than herself.
Since her two young children, Sam and Lola, are also appearing, Richards has received a lot of flack for this new series. One […]
Ricky Gervais and the Original Office
Over the course of the summer, I’ll be writing about several TV shows, and my blogs will include discussions about the Office(s). Having been a huge fan of the original Office as well as an enthusiastic watcher of the “Carrell version,” I have decided to run two separate entries, retracing the British version, while recapping […]
Laughing with Bret and Jemaine: Following the Flight of the Conchords
Thankfully, for the humorous and humorless alike, there’s a new show – the Flight of the Conchords, which is funny, smart, and entertaining. And hopefully it will serve as a remedy to all of you sourpusses out there. Of course, for those of you who do have a sense of humor and appreciate, as […]
Even McCain Knows You Don’t Mess with Fox News
It appears that Fox News doesn’t really wanna let folks know that their employees vote Republican (shocking, I know).
Word out on Political Spin-street: 24-year old Jennifer Locke, a Fox News assistant (insert: lackey), made the very partisan blunder when she covered the entertainment side of the Time 100 Gala a few nights ago.
Perhaps Locke was […]
