Earlier tonight, I decided I would merely fast forward through tonight’s American Idol results show, and yet, as is always the case, I sunk nearly forty minutes into the damn thing, fast forwarding only occasionally when group numbers and phone calls and McPheever got too much for me to handle. Oh Idol. You’re such a …

Further Travails of New Yawk's Nouveau Riche
In case you haven’t been watching, Bravo’s new series, The Real Housewives of New York City is fast becoming one of my new Spring favorites. It features a wide variety of nouveau riche excess, but unlike its sibling, The Real Housewives of Orange County, everything plays out against the backdrop of old money. These aren’t …

OH MAN, YOU GUYS: David Archuleta Chickity-Choke-Chokes

This week, Big Brother is allowing the viewers to vote one cast member back into the house, and based on the drama that it will stir up, I am officially endorsing Allison as America’s Choice. The reasons are simple: she’s smart, she’s manipulative, and she can stir up trouble like none other. Plus, wouldn’t you …

Hey, I can write about TV again! Where do I begin???
Television Without Pity Suffers A Brain Drain. Sound Familiar?
Last year, when J-Unit and I left TVgasm, we passed the sell-out baton to Television Without Pity, which was soon acquired by Bravo TV literally days after we stepped down. Now, just under a year later Gawker reports today that three of TWoP’s founders will now be moving onto bigger and better things. Or, as …
