"We must ban men in dresses from going into women's rooms! It's the only way to protect our mothers, wives, and daughters!" (thinks longingly of the pretty, pretty dress hidden in the back of his closet, wishing he could wear it out into a woman's bathroom. They're so much prettier than men's rooms!)

An excerpt from Killing O'Reilly's Career:

How about my script for The Rise and Fall of the Good American Darkness?

According to the Tony website, there are 13 new musicals this year. Assuming that the now-closed, not-well-received Paramour, In Transit, and Holiday Inn aren't going to get nominated, that leaves ten shows for five slots. DEH and NP&TGCO1812 do seem like shoo-ins, and A Bronx Tale probably doesn't have the critical…

It's probably a wise idea to get a big name to host, since this year, there isn't a super-huge, super-buzzed about musical that might get non-theater fans to turn in. "Honey, let's watch the numbers from the Groundhog Day musical and that show about Canadians on 9/11!" isn't likely to be said in many living rooms.

Poehler had the bad luck of going up against Edie Falco, at a time when Edie Falco sneezing probably would have won her an Emmy. Then, the next year, she lost to Melissa McCarthy winning an Emmy for Bridesmaids Mike & Molly. Then, 5 straight years of Julia Louis-Dreyfus. It sucks for her, but it is understandable.

From the writers of He's Just Not That Into You, Valentine's Day, The Vow, and How to Be Single? I'm not sure if that is a lineup of credits you want to be bragging about.

The fact that the writers behind this also wrote Valentine's Day reminds me that that movie had Jessica Biel—yes, that Jessica Biel—playing a woman who spent most of her scene moaning that no guy wanted to touch her with a ten-foot pole.

Heh…he did seem interested in E.T., but he wanted to see Flubber instead. With Cool Runnings, he had no idea what bobsledding was, and the best description I could come up with was basically sliding a bathtub down an ice slide, so that didn't exactly grab his attention. Maybe after the Olympics next year, he'll be…

Yeah, the idea of AI learning to feel genuine human emotions has certainly been explored before, and would be explored again (just 3 1/2 years later by Spielberg, for example), but a family-friendly take would, I suspect, have been far more interesting than what did make it on screen.

I remember watching The Net in 1995 and thinking the idea of ordering a pizza off the internet was ridiculous. I mean, why in the world would some local pizza place want to set up their own website? Local people had phone books, and it's not like a place in LA needs to be seen by people in New York, or London, or…

I think I read that they wrapped production of Season 1 back in December.

Didn't really do much, except Easter dinner with the family yesterday, where I ate way too much. Other than sitting through Flubber (see above), and helping to color eggs on Saturday night, I don't even remember much else of what I did.

Thank goodness, since I haven't done my taxes either. I'm having to pay, so what's the point of doing them even a minute early?

Watched Flubber, from 1997, for the first time in 20 years, since it looked like something to entertain my boyfriend's 7-year-old son, and he rejected E.T. and Cool Runnings. I'm not quite sure how a movie starring Robin Williams, bouncy green goo, and a lovesick robot could be so boring, but it was. It has a…

Janet Gaynor. Judy Garland. Barbra Streisand, Lady Gaga Stefani Germanotta. One of these is not like the others.

I could see going to streaming if it was going to be more R-rated, like The Good Fight (as I understand it. Since I don't get CBS All-Access, I have yet to see The Good Fight). But if this is a typical, at least pre-teen friendly Star Trek series, dumping it onto a streaming service seems like a huge waste.

Grown Ups for me, as well, mainly because of Funny People. Sander basically admitted he had done a bunch of lazy, stupid crap over the years, and I thought that meant he was going to buckle down and make real movies now. Then, a year later, he did a movie that's basically the dictionary definition of "lazy, stupid…

She didn't even look all that bad. The whole plot didn't make that much sense. Ross was going to pick Rachel over the guest star. I'm pretty sure no one doubted that part. Ross had no problem breaking up with Julie to be with Rachel, so why contrive a reason for Ross to break up with Bald Girl (whose name I can't…

I'm sorry it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.
