Thank God for Red Lasso. I just gained entry to their Beta, which means now I can easily post clips from the Food Network. What a glorious revelation. Why not kick things off with Sandra Lee who’s baking CAAAAKE!!!

Not That He's Materialistic Or Anything…
I’m sorry. I can’t contain my disgust for James. I know I should be mature and just ignore him, but I simply can’t. It’s too easy to rant when you have a blog. In this clip, posted today on JokersUpdates, James discusses the origins of his pink mohawk, which comes not from any innate craziness …
BIG BROTHER PHOTOCAP: He's On An Island!!!
Oh Big Brother. You cruel, cruel mistress. Last night was a classic Big Brother emotional roller coaster. There were highs, there were lows, and there were laughs. Oh so many laughs. Watching Joshuah sob by himself was almost worth the price of admission. Watching Joshuah make Sheilah sob too was even better. However, while there …

GOSSIP GIRL? Stephanie Pratt Attempts To Be The Universal Sidekick
The second half of The Hills season is only a few episodes old, but already She-Spencer, née Stephanie Pratt, has already turned out to be a breakout star. The first instinct is to hate her as she is a descendent of the Pratt lineage, but her naughty manipulations and Iago-esque troublemaking have made her the …

BYE BYE LOVE: Departures Aplenty on The Hills
Holy Moly. I had no idea MTV was going to give us two full episodes of The Hills tonight. I’m all for extra episodes, but I have to admit, I was so very psyched to be recapping only a half an hour’s worth of material. Now I gotta do a full hour? ARGH! It’s okay …

Play Ball!
Today is opening day for baseball, and in honor of this momentous event, I’ve not only published an extremely generic and clichéd blog headline, but I’ve also compiled some photos from Friday night when I went to a Dodgers vs. Red Sox exhibition game here in Los Angeles. Spearheading this trip was my friend IndianJones, …
BIG BROTHER PHOTOCAP: Lucky Number Seven
It’s Sunday, which means CBS just aired another delightful installment of Big Brother. The nomination episodes are usually the most low key of the week, but that’s okay because they give us a chance to enjoy the dumb things our merry captives do to keep themselves busy — you know, like playing hide and seek, …
What A Sad and Pathetic Swan
I just stumbled upon this article in Yahoo’s “Oddly Enough” news department, and while I’m sure it’s supposed to be amusing and heartwarming, I just found it troubling and sad. Okay, and amusing too. Basically, in 2006, a black swan named Petra fell in love with a paddleboat that resembles — you guessed it — …
Yew Know Wut? You Don't Owe Me An Overdramatic Clip, But Ya Kinda Dew!
No one gets in a tizzy more than Big Brother’s Sheila, and while some find her histrionics irritating, I think they’re hilarious. Here’s a brief clip from Wednesday’s Big Brother After Dark in which she and Natalie revel in the outcome of that night’s HOH contest. It gets funnier the more you watch it. Thank …

CURIOUS THOUGHT: What If Juliette Binoche and Abigail Breslin Swapped Heads?
Earlier today, I was looking at a picture of Abigail Breslin on Best Week Ever, and for some reason, her face struck me as being particularly Juliette Binoche-ish. I couldn’t help wondering if it was just me, or if their faces were truly interchangeable. I busted out the Photoshop, and ten minutes later, I had …
