TV. Food. Pop Culture.
The gameplay sure is fast and furious on Big Brother where even the most minor interaction (usually stemming from Ian) seems to send huge ripples throughout the house. I won’t spoil what happened in last night’s show, but needless to say, we certainly aren’t facing the listless go-with-the-flow mentality that plagued the past two seasons. …

Language NSFW On this very special episode of Watch What Crappens, Ronnie Karam (TVgasm.com), Matt Whitfield (Yahoo! TV), and I get down and dirty with all sorts of gossip relating to the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: Adrienne’s divorce, Brandi’s bathroom high jinks, and Lisa’s renewed wedding vows. Then it’s on to NYC by way …

Big episode of Banter with Ben and Lisa today. First Lisa Timmons and I talk about the opening ceremonies of the 2012 Summer Olympics. Then we tackle the other big, British news of the week: Robert Pattinson breaking up with Kristen Stewart after she cheated on him with director Rupert Sanders. Heavens! After that, I …
Well, it was another Sunday episode of Big Brother, which meant there wasn’t too much activity beyond nominations, but that’s aiiight. The producers gave us a few human interest segments such as Jenn’s coming out story (ie. pretty much the first things she’s said on camera ALL SEASON), and Ashley’s love of dream boards, which …

Well, an explosive week in the Big Brother house has come to an end. It was fun watching Willie get kicked out (did y’all hear he got arrested just days after leaving the house?), but at the same time, I’m going to miss having a full-fledged villain to kick around. As we all know, the …

It occurred to me this morning that it’s been ages since I’d written up a photocap for The Real Housewives of New York City. Maybe that’s because the new cast has yet to really gel (or at least spark). The revamped RHONYC has been something of a mild failure. The show is still entertaining to …

language NSFW There’s one less iteration of The Real Housewives on TV these days, but Matt Whitfield (Yahoo! TV), Ronnie Karam (TVgasm.com), and I more than make up for the cattiness with this week’s episode of Watch What Crappens. We skewer the usual targets (Sonja, LuAnn Ramona, Teresa), and this time around, we also aim …
A few months ago, I raved about the totally awesome spring cocktails at Drago Centro, the esteemed Italian eatery in Downtown Los Angeles. Well, the seasons have changed, and so have the libations. Gone are mixologist Jaymee Mandeville’s fanciful uses of dill and honeycomb and kumquat. In their place are a new slate of drinks, …

We got a big ol’ story on this week’s Banter with Ben and Lisa. The long and the short of it is that I had a spontaneous dinner with football superstar Chad Ochocinco (née Johnson) in Beverly Hills. What’s Chad like? How did it happen? It’s all in the podcast. Plus, Lisa and I chat …
I’m rather peeved at Willie’s early exit from Big Brother because it has deprived me of a season of punny headlines: “Willie to Power,” “Good Willie Hunting,” “Willie Da Foe,” “Chilly Willie,” “Willie Nillie,” “Willie’s Wonky Chocolate Factory” (assuming there was an episode pertaining to a rectal dysfunction), and, of course, “Free Willie.” Alas, my …
