Coming off last Monday’s wonderfully goofy Jersey Shore that featured Snooki face planting into the sands of Seaside Heights, it was inevitable that we’d be due for a less interesting follow-up episode. Indeed, Thursday’s latest installment was a touch forgettable, even if it was still immensely entertaining. The action began with Snooki locked up in …

And Now A Rattled Filmgoer Rants Against Sundance Movie
I’ve never been to Sundance, but from what I’ve been told, it has this magical effect on filmgoers wherein they dole out standing ovations for movies that are merely just mediocre. I suppose it’s the higher altitude or maybe just the latent ganja in the air that comes from hundreds of Hollywood types descending on …

Harvard Picks Leno Over Conan. Typical.
I don’t always have kind thoughts for Harvard. Call me biased — I did attend rival school Dartmouth — but the latest example of Crimson head scratching has come courtesy of this year’s Hasty Pudding Award. While the selection of Julianne Moore is perfectly fine, I’m fairly perplexed about the choice of fellow honoree Jay …

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA PHOTOCAP: Nene Revs Up Her Miami Sound Machine
When we last caught up with The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Nene and Kim were in the midst of an loud, angry, and generally silly brawl about Kim’s alleged manner of addressing her assistant, Sweetie. Nene didn’t like the way Kim treated her; Kim felt it was none of Nene’s business. They were both right, …

REAL HOUSEWIVES FINALE PHOTOCAP: Whoa.
We’ve seen a lot of fights on the Real Housewives franchise. There have been flowing tears, screaming voices, and at times extremely intense emotion. But nothing in the entire history of the show compared to the fight that erupted at the end of last night’s season finale of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. This …
Begging Bravo to Greenlight ‘The Queen of Jordan’
After a month-long break, 30 Rock returned with another strong episode last night, which ended with this hilarious semi-spoof of The Real Housewives titled The Queen of Jordan. Sure, it may be a fake reality show, but I’d still watch it.
Woman Falls Into A Mall Fountain, And That’s Her Least Humiliating Problem
This video is hilarious, and not just because it shows a woman so busy texting that she actually FALLS into a mall fountain. No, what’s hilarious about it is that this idiot now wants to sue the mall because no one came to her aid. “The fountain could have been empty… I could have been …
