I think I need to keep my Real Housewives posts separate ...
Watched Righteous Kill with DeNiro and Pacino. It was ... ok ... not great, just ok. Not sure if there was supposed to be a twist, but I figured out early on who was doing the killing. I will say though, Carla Gugino and DeNiro together, in the Biblical sense? Makes my skin crawl.
I still can't believe that Life on Mars is going to be cancelled. They are already gearing up "don't miss the series finale" ... and what was up with the episode from last week that was a carbon copy of an episode of Swingtown (another ABC cancelled series). I mean, for heaven's sake ABC ... if you kill a series, don't rehash it in another series.
Jon Stewart really gave it to Jim Cramer on Daily Show. Cramer didn't fight back, which I think took Stewart by surprise. I have to hand it to Cramer, he took it like a man, unlike that wuss Rick Santelli ... what a jerk.
I think I need to invest in the entire series of Corner Gas. Thank you WGN for broadcasting it down here. They are also running ALF, a show that I always watched in college. I hate to admit it, but I still find it very funny.

My ladies, back again!
Watched last night ... oy!
YentaJill ... bless her heart. She's a good egg. She had every right to be ticked at her gay husband and I thought it was great of her to leave Ginger with them! And I love how she just let fly with Ginger Nip and Fangface.
GingerNip and Fangface ... well well well, what a pair of trollops Fangface and gingernip are, it's true! She was looking for some bootycall online and found Gingernip and that wahh wahh wahh "you have my heart" ... did anyone hear my laughter? I hope those boys are up to date with their tetanus vaccinations. And I just love Duhmona's pure animosity toward them. Who introduced Gingernip as the owner of the Chandler? Are you kidding me? And they just let them do that? Mais oui!!!
Duhmona-she's great. Seriously, this season, she's awesome, even though she did backstab Jill, that's just Duhmona because Jill won't play tennis the way she wants her to, what a brat. When she and Bethandthecity were walking their dogs, Duhoma was looking her age though. Mario is a hoot. I loved how he chucked the dog doo back at her! Avery is going to be one stunning girl. She's a bit gawky right now, but boy ... she's going to really be a stunner by the time she's off to college, if Duhmona let's her go! And then there's
IAMACOUNTESSDAMMIT-wow, what an insipid twit. Victoria is ready to go! And what's up with calling her son by the feminine pronunciation of Noel? It's Nole, not No-elle. Poor kid is gonna get the tar beat out of him a la Francois. Both of those kids are beautiful, but you'll be reading about Victoria in the social pages about her party exploits. IAMACOUNTESSDAMMIT is going to be one lonely lady once those kids are off to boarding school and she's home alone because HEISANOLDERMANDAMMIT is off microfinancing in Asia ... poor Rosie. And I'm sorry, does that townhouse just seem incredibly thin? I'd live in the Hamptons full time, at least there's space! Did you see that grave they set up for the hamster? And IAMACOUNTESSDAMMIT didn't even notice? She must have been off "my loving" and "my darling" someone.
Bethandthecity-what a pathetic woman. She has a great date with a great guy who is obviously into her and she wants nothing to do with him. Know why? I'll tell you why ... he's chunky, he's not GQ .. she's that shallow! It's really sad because this chef guy was really nice, but he's as bad as her. He wants the supermodel/Vogue type too. Both will be lonely and bitter for the rest of their lives until they grow up.
Kelly- her skin is terrible! See how she's all over the chef guy and treats her children like crap? Wonder what would happen if she had boys instead of girls.

Duhmona is the best!
She is pure id. No filter on this one ... all googly eyed id. She completely PWND that episode. And my oh my ... little insecure about the fact that you did indeed, Countless LuAnn, marry an older man? Sweetie, he was 15 years old when you were born ... sweetie, he was 33 years old by the time you were legal to marry ... sweetie, get over it ... she's insecure about being the 4th Countess DeLesseps, and who the heck cares if he's older than you ... so what? I mean, she went off on Duhmona, who, in DUHmona fashion, blurted out that the Count is twice the Countless's age ... it's DUHmona LuAnn ... boy did she get on her classless, etiquetteless haunches ... the hipocrisy of it all ... she's wrting this manners and etiquette book to prove to the world that she deserves to be a countess. She's an idiot. Duhmona is just Duhmona.
And Bethandthecity needs to get off it too ... wow, I don't know who is more insecure ... she CANNOT let things just go. Everything is a fight with her .. everything is a crisis. She needs chill pills. It's one thing with the classles countess, but Bethandthecity is ALWAYS like that. What a b-word to hijack LuAnn into that lunch to tell her about some off the cuff comment and how stupid of LuAnn for first of all, just sitting there (I would have left) and then getting defensive saying that she was protecting Bethandthecity? Dang, those two are in insecureville.
I'm so tired of AlexSimon ... mr. ginger nipple and fang face ...
Corner Gas is awesome. I look forward to my 3 weekly episodes that tivo every tuesday morning. Found some bloopers on Youtube and to be honest, the show is funnier. I may need to get all the episodes on DVD for my collection. Seriously, it's a great show.

forgot!
I watched another movie ... a Steve Buscemi movie, called Interview. I've never had any luck with Sienna Miller movies, but in this one, she was great. It's a remake of a Theo Van Gogh movie. Now I need to see the original .. sigh. Most of the film takes place in one room, so I could imagine this being a stage play.
Flight of the Conchords is just getting weird. The focus seems to be off Jermaine & Brett, which is bad for the show. Murray makes my skin crawl and Mel's character is just blah blah blah now. They're about ready to lose me.
East Bound and Down is crude ... funny, but crude.

I do watch other things you know.
I know I've been blahging a lot on Real Housewives ... guilty pleasure methinks. But I am watching several other shows/programs, which proves beyond a reasonable doubt that I am a tv addict.
Keith Olbermann actually made reference to There Will Be Blood ... the drinking a milkshake line... which I probably reversed and played again quite a few times. I like to chase the intensity of Keith with Daily Show. Oh man, Rick Santelli really got a drubbing for our man Stewart. It was just classic. The beeps were flying and I was loving every single one. I was drinking them like a milkshake. Real Time With Bill Maher has started up again. It's a show I've been watching since it's inception on HBO. I was never a big fan of Politically Incorrect, but ever since he was railroaded out of ABC (what a farce), I support him .. he used to have Coultergeist on a lot, but she won't do his show anymore ... coward! This past week was a snoozer, actually deleted it halfway through. I also skip over his opening monologue because I don't like how he mugs for the camera during his punchlines ... it's annoying. He doesn't do it as bad with the panel.
More on Maher, the most pretentious show on television is on the most pretentious network on television, Sundance. It's called Iconoclasts. The concept is interesting ... get 2 celebrities together and film their day together and have them talk about themselves and each other. I liked the one with Laird Hamilton and Eddie Vedder, but for the most part, it's just stupid. The latest on intrigued me, Bill Maher and Clive Davis. It was good, not terribly pretentious. Clive Davis seems like a genuine fellow and Bill Maher, was Bill Maher without the mugginess. Both come from humble beginnings ... educated and have had their fair share of successes and failures. They didn't act self-important, which a lot of times, this show denegrates to that level. The theme music is annoying as snot ... staccatto piano, like "this is the most important show on television" ... blah. I ususally check out who is on and decide to record it.
THEY CANCELLED LIFE ON MARS!!! Shame on you ABC ... Keitel & Imperioli are too good for you and your stupid network.
Movies ... I'm on a John Cusak kick right now. Watched Martian Child. Very sweet movie. About a widower (Cusak) who adopts a kid who thinks he's from Mars. It's very very sweet and all is well at the end. The kids who played the Martian Child was excellent. It's a departure from what I usually like to watch. Also watched 1408. Not a big fan of horror, I'm a wuss. I actually had to turn it off right at the beginning when he was in the room and things started happening ... it was one of those moments where you can picture it happening to you and just how scary hotel rooms can be. But then it denegrated into the stupid ... cheap horror film crap that wasn't scary. I wonder why Cusak agreed to do this film? Hopefully it was because he just wanted to try horror films.
I tivo'd and deleted 2 films that I just couldn't fathom watching any further. Wet Hot American Summer was a completely horrible rip off of Dazed and Confused. What was really sad was that the cast wasn't a bunch of unknowns. It's about some summer camp shenanigans after all the kids leave. Just dumb beyond dumb. I think I watched for 8 minutes. If this film has anything worth watching past 8 minutes, let me know, I'll watch it again. The other one I deleted was Vatel. It's part of my Tim Roth film festival. It's supposedly about one of the King Louis's chefs falling in love with one of the king's mistresses. Gerard Depardieu seems to have been the only frenchman cast because Uma Thurman's french accent was ... bad? No, beyond bad, it was nonexistent. Literally, she would deliver one line in a poor french accent and then the next in a poor german accent. It reminded me of Costner playing Robin Hood and how laughable that accent was. I only saw Tim Roth in one scene before I deleted the thing. I think this movie could be good if it was played by french actors with subtititles.
More Roth ... I've been watching Lie to Me. It's a very good show and it's because Tim Roth carries the show. There is really only one other character that's worth watching and it's because he can't lie. Pretty much everyone else is kind of blah. His number 2 person though .. I can't even remember he name nor character name, is really really annoying. If it wasn't for Roth, I wouldn't watch.
Still watching Flight of the Conchords and Eastbound and Down. Talk about two diametrically opposed shows! Conchords is highbrow compared to Eastbound, but I like them both.

More of my housewives!
Just watched the latest trainwreck. I really think it's getting redundant to keep complaining about AlexSimon, but seriously, there are absolutley no redeeming qualities to either of them. They were in their luxious Hamptons hovel and the owner of the house is a masseuse and a tarot card reader. She put them both into a sauna and Simon leacherously exclaims how great it was to be in a small hot dark room with Alex. Not "my wife" ... Alex. As if he's shared the sauna with someone else. I think he just likes the unisex nature of his wife's name. Naughty naughty.
And the Countesssssssssssssssssss ... what a schlub. She hijacks her daughter's luncheon to go over etiquette, completely embarassing her really pretty daughter who is off to boarding school in the fall (yea for her!). She talked down completely to one of her friends about the proper way to cut up chicken on a plate ... I mean really!
Duhmona. I have to say that this season, she's probably the least annoying .. no, wait ... I don't mean that, she's just as over the top as she was last season. Everyone else is ramped up, so maybe she's just more normal. She actually got competitive with the Gov. of New York over who is more blind .. or as she would say "bloind".
Kelly ... ahhhhh Kelly ... She completely blows of Duhomona for a guy who is obviously worshipful of her ... she is the rudest of them all. Each week, my hunch is more and more right. She hates women.
Yenta Jill gets left out in the cold during ther lunch with Duhmona and the Countessssssssssssss and I'm sorry, but her daughter is just getting bigger and bigger. I understand that her meds for her rheumatoid arthritis may cause weight gain, but Ally just looks soft.
Bethandthecity is getting boring ... there's nothing to say. She's pathetic and then she said the line that says it all "don't touch me". Girlfriend has touching issues ... no wonder she's not married. Hey Bethandthecity, married people, dating people ... people who want to date .. want to touch you! Get over that and maybe you'll hook someone.
Whew ....

Insanity!
The second episode of Real Housewives of NYC was off the hook. AlexSimon are just plain whack. Oh dear! They blessed everyone on the Hamptons with their presence ... and trust me, they felt that THEY were doing the blessing! Oh, the Atlantic is just soooooooooooooo much more cold and choppy ... oh, Francois and Johann just wouldn't like it here at all ... and then the banana hammock! Simon wears a speedo because it's just so european and we common folk in America just can't handle it ... no Simon, we can handle it, YOU can't handle the laughter eminating from everyone who is embarassed by seeing your junk hanging in the wind. Please dude, everyone who calls you gay is insulting every gay man on earth. What a sad sack of a human being you are. And the fangy wife Alex ... I wonder what color the sky is on Planet Alex??? Sweetie, you grew up in Kansas, not the Carribean ... you went to Northwestern, not the Sorbonne ... you're a regular girl, with fangs. The shopping spree! They spent 8K on a bunch of clothes that the store owner made 2 shopgirls help haul into their car ... I don't know, that 8K would have bought nice flooring for that hovel they call a house in Cobble Hill.
Duhomona, believe it or not, is actually proving to be the nice person of the season. Bethandthecity is just a mess. Seriously, if her food is anything like her life, do not eat it. Yenta Jill is a total co-dependent. That chunky Ally couldn't wait to get the heck away from her! She's spending the summer in Paris. I bet she comes back looking completely healthy and gorgeous. She needed to get away from Jill ... yuck, talk about overbearing mother.
And the DisCOUNTESS. First, she orders a pizza and tell them that her name is Countess DeLesseps. She's joking right? Please tell me that she's not serious. She gets an award from a cancer society and she literally interrupts and tells everyone to shut up and listen and then she tromps back to her table and proceeds to chit chat! She's the queen of hypocrisy!
Kelly .. still too soon to tell. But my theory on her hating women and only seeking the worship of men was on full display. She trotting around like a little schoolgirl at this party, from one group of men to another. It was kind of embarassing to see. It was like she was taking in man energy and left when she was full.
Watched a movie I haven't seen in awhile. Albert Brooks's, Mother. Debbie Reynolds is just too cute. This movie was made in 1996, so seeing the computers, the phones and a younger Lisa Kudrow, basically playing Phoebe, was a hoot.
Also watched bits and pieces of The Cell & The Breakup. I'm not convinced as to why Jennier Aniston and Vince Vaughn ever hooked up ... but then again, she's still with the big dork, John Mayer. Sigh.
The usual, lots of Keith, lots of Daily Show.
