What a Network Whore During the first episode of Glee, I kept asking myself who was that redhead? Well it came to me as I was catching up on Heroes.  Her name is Jayma Mays and I am declaring her this year's network ho....

I have been a fan of Jimmy Fallon since he was on Saturday Night Live doing skits like Jarret’s room.  During the entire Conan versus Jay debacle, he kept his mouth shut, and now he has been rewarded.  He hosted the 2010 Emmys, and he was awesome. The skits were hysterical, he can do a mean Green Day imitation, and I love how he asked people to tweet introductions for some of the presenters. Nice.  Three cheers for Jimmy!!  The rest of the show…meh.  I mean I’m happy that Mad Men and Glee won for best Drama and Best Comedy, I’m just upset about the entire 30 Rock, The Office and True Blood shut out.  Come on!  Again, I was excited that Jane Lynch and Eric Stonestreet won for Best Supporting Actress and Actor in a Comedy, but throw a bone to Steve Carell!  And even Edie Falco was surprised to win for Best Actress in a Comedy.  I am pretty sure that more people will be watching one of my favorite tv shows, Breaking Bad, now that they swept the Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor category.  It was the little show that could, AMC’s breakthrough drama that holds it’s own around the juggernaut called Mad Men.  I thoroughly enjoyed this year’s Emmys and I am praying that they bless us next year with Jimmy Fallon as a host again. Check out the list of winners here.

I’m horny for Darryl Van Horne

I was skeptical about Eastwick because I just don’t like movies being made into a television series.   I was horribly wrong, in fact, I am now obsessed with it.  The cast is fantastic.  I’m glad Lindsay Price jumped from Lipstick Jungle to this show.  Rebecca Romajin brings a breath of fresh air to her character as an earthy caring mother. Jamie Ray Newman is a show stopper as a nurse with five kids, adding an underlying quiet anger to her role. But I saved the best for last. I am in utter lust for Mr. Darryl Van Horne, played by Paul Gross, the devilish billionaire who rolls into town and starts a ruckus.  He is ten million times sexier than Jack Nicholson, who was in the original film. He looked and sounded familiar and then I remembered that he was the constable from Due South.  I laughed about that show and actually made fun of him because he was Canadian.  I regret it now.  I dream about this man. I want to cover him in duck fat and bake him naked. His voice alone could sell the H1N1 virus and millions of women would buy it. He has been called an older version of Julian McMahon (who is Australian, by the way), but I cannot and will not do the same. However, I would like to see both of them dressed in nothing but boxer briefs and feeding me grapes.

Pushing Daisies is Dead

I was in love with the series Pushing Daisies since it’s first episode.  The town of Coeur d’Coeurs has a mystical yet nifty ’50s feel.  It was non-threatening, had morals and values, and no foul language.  Ned was adorable, Chuck was endearing, and I think Emmerson Cod was a hoot! My favorite quote from the show was “Maybe she has gone all Blood Simple…hiding her victims all up in snowmen.” The writing was just spectacular.  How can Ned bring dead things back to life? How can he have a relationship with Chuck, whom he could never touch? (I should talk, I mean, I’m in a relationship with TiVo!) How can you make enough money to live on with your own pie shop? None of these questions were answered in the series finale, but it doesn’t matter.  The majestic fields of daisies, rolling hills, clean streets, and delicious pies will always be a comforting memory to me. Rest in peace, Pushing Daisies.

Ugly Betty is a skank

How does Ugly Betty get all the action?  She has had three boyfriends in the last six months, which is the most I have had so far.  Why?  Is it the braces? The rubber bands in her mouth?  The way she wears ankle socks with kitten heels? Yes I’m bitter, and consumed with envy at the fact that this chick gets all that action.  Why, Betty Suarez, why?!?!
