Today I also saw a "Lady Shirley" which is a Shirley Temple with bourbon

I remember seeing her on "Friends" as the girlfriend that keeps punching Joey in the arm—absolutely could not connect her with Punky.

We were discussing Shirley Temple just the other day, the context being that one of her last films was some crapfest called "That Hagen Girl" co-starring Ronald Reagan (this was in the Watch This article on Reagan as George Gipp). My contention was that one of the reasons for Temple's film career sputtering out was…

hi

I don't understand how many people think they can retcon Vera's suicide into murder.

You're stonehearted.

"Time to make the doughnuts."

Not a good enough actress.

Who's Michael Thomas? Other than someone with an impressively generic name?

You would have to find an actor or actress that was actually fluent in more than one language. Probably not a ton of those.

I long ago figured out that the only way to handle those calls is to hang up immediately without saying anything.

"Elizabethtown" was Nathan Rabin's first "My Year of Flops" entry. Good times.

My 5-year-old sings "Let It Go" every day, although she has been branching out into "Do You Want To Build a Snowman" as well.

ugh, be quiet

I had no idea this was a thing. Can you stream it on CBS's website, or youtube?

No, you should follow your first instinct and avoid her songs, which are abysmal. Really sexy, but utterly talentless.

Froggatt. Froggatt. Froggatt.

Haven't watched yet. Did Lord Grantham really not know what the Senate is? Not up on his Roman history?

I think just watching promos for "Girls" will reduce a man's testosterone level.

They have so obviously portrayed Rust as creepy that it seems like he can't possibly be the killer. Which leaves Marty, unless they don't go in that direction at all, and I kind of think they won't.
