Try this one on for size. Sesame Street did a parody of Mad Men recently, and the results were… intriguing. I’ll be honest — without the smoking and boozing, it just ain’t the same. And whither the puppet JOAN? She’s really getting the shaft in every possible way these days, huh? Nevertheless, enjoy the clip above.

HILLS PHOTOCAP: A Bitch Amongst Douches
After a summer of suspense, The Hills returned for its fifth season last night (although, I can swear there’ve been about thirty), and the big news was that Kristin Cavallari had stepped in to take the place of Lauren Conrad’s starring role. This wasn’t the first time Kristin has ascended to the spotlight. Back in …
'The City' Is Back… And Now 100% Less Australian (and Douchey)
It was a big premiere night for MTV last night as both The City and The Hills kicked off their respective seasons in a one hour block of furtive glares and pretty, petty drama. I suppose it’s The Hills that’s garnered all the hype with the arrival of Kristin Cavallari, but honestly, after watching both, …

HOUSEWIVES PHOTOCAP: Miss Independent
Sorry to be tardy for the party on this post, but I only got around to watching last week’s Real Housewives of Atlanta last night, and after a two week absence, I’m back with a photocap. So much has gone on since I last did one of these. Kim recorded “Tardy for the Party,” Kim …
RACHEL ZOE PHOTOCAP: A Bad Case of Verti-zoe
If the latest episode of The Rachel Zoe Project felt a bit like Arrested Development, that’s because like Lucille II, Rachel came down with (spoiler!) VERTIGO! Yes, the source of her DEADLY NAUSEA was none other than stress-induced vertigo, a.k.a. The Spins. On the one hand, I felt bad for our ailing stylist. On the …

SURVIVOR PHOTOCAP: One Challenge You're In, and The Next You're OUT
Raise your hand if you’re loving this season of Survivor? You probably can’t tell, but my hand is up. Way up. Unless you are excessively bitter and have no taste, Survivor: Samoa is amazing so far, replete with villains, patsies, and a few underdogs (SHAMBO) who probably won’t get their act together, but hey, such …

‘Community’ Has Won Me Over
Before Community premiered last week, I had some concerns. All the promotional clips NBC had sent out were kind of… well… just okay. Still, I like to check out new comedy, and the New York Times gave the show a good review; so I watched the first episode earlier this week and kind of loved …
Help Fight MS!
Meeshie in 2008 My friend Meeshie is taking part in a very important and good cause next week. No, she’s not finding me a benefactor to fund this site. She’s participating in the annual bike ride to support MS Research. Last year, I encouraged readers to help support Meeshie and her team, and this year, …
ADVENTURES IN DOMESTICITY: Just Your Basic Chocolate Chip Cookie Edition
Because the weather in Los Angeles was so beautiful last night, my friend Sly moseyed on over to my place, and the two of us ascended to my rooftop where we split a bottle of Rioja which we had purchased in Harbor City as part of our paella adventure many moons ago. Suffice it to …
