ByRileyOkay, I know I said that I would only write about good things, and I do intend to hold to that. In fact, I am holding to it. I could go on and on about how pathetic people can be, how bigoted and how inhuman… But I won’t. So, although these two stories appeared on CNN…

ByRileyDo you all know about the movie 5ive Girls? Don’t worry if you don’t. In fact, not knowing about it is kind of a tribute to your taste. It’s not like people are going to be popping the anniversary disc of 5ive Girls into their high-def, Blu-Ray, ultimate infinity DVD players in 20 years, turning…
I Had a Dream…
ByRileyPerhaps not as lofty as Martin Luther King, Jr.’s, but I’m convinced meaning lies within. In my dream, I was at my Aunt Mary’s house (my real great aunt). But Aunt Mary’s house wasn’t Aunt Mary’s house. Her real house is an old two-story with lots of dark wood and antique fixtures. The dream house…

ByRileyShawna just posed a question to me that I now must pose to the public at large. It’s not quite funny how we got there. You see, when I am in the midst of one of my headaches, Shawna has decided that I am roughly the equivalent of a three-year-old. I talk funny, I spill…

I agree with every single statement. Plus, how about Liza Minnelli having a seizure on stage? With all due respect to her past accomplishments, that was…painful to watch.
I should have tuned out after, but I just wanted to find out how bad it could get…wow little did I know.
I’m told it was little reminiscent of variety shows of yore. What with Alec Baldwin being plastered and all.
However, Jane Krakowski looked hot, and those giveaways were pretty cool. Speaking of which… 😉
so glad i missed it. but somehow, i still feel like i know exactly what happened.
Like Tara I missed it. But I can imagine the horror. Everything Rosie has done since (or before) “A League of Their Own” has been pretty crap or irritating or both. The same goes for Madonna actually.
Um, I don’t really get your comment about acting ‘bi’. I didn’t watch Rosie, so I don’t know about her, but with Ellen I don’t think she does anything to diminish her lesbian status. I mean my very gay Aunt flirts with her male friends as a joke all the time, I don’t think my other Aunt thinks her partner is bi. If anything when Ellen or my Auntie “Flirt” with a bloke they tend go so far over the top you’d have to be in a coma to not notice its a joke!
As a long time Rosie supporter I have to say I was very disappointed. The hype around that show was astronomical! But in the end when the curtain lifted it left me wishing I had not tuned in. It was NOTHING like the variety shows it had been compared to, “carol burnett” and “sonny and cher”
It lacked the lustre and polish that those shows did.
Liza was a joke, and should have been left under the stage!
I highly doubt it will be picked up for regular broadcast in the new year. If it IS they had better do some major reworking….
I really thought that this would be good for Rosie, just the kinda thing she should do.
If it weren’t so early I think I’d start drinking, if only to wash out the god awful taste.
I was actually just talking about Rosie acting bi. Ellen couldn’t act bi if she mounted a guy’s face. Rosie has a tendency to use hetero-ness to make people comfortable. It annoyed me the entire time she had her talk show. It still annoys me.
Jane Krakowski did indeed look hot. It would have been nice if Rosie had acknowledged that for instance. It would have been a nice contrast to her exclusively male flirting.
Yes, it did leave a bitter taste in the mouth, didn’t it?
Well, you got your wish. NBC will not be subjecting us to this again.
