Gratitude

May 16, 2012 by Allyson

I didn’t know Adam Yauch. I never met him, or even spotted him in traffic or standing in line at a coffee shop in L.A. But when I read the news of Yauch’s passing last Friday, I crumbled. That afternoon, I drove over to the studio where his band recorded Check Your Head and Ill Communication, just a couple of miles from my apartment, and laid flowers by the back stairs. That … [Read more...] about Gratitude

Eureka!

July 17, 2006 by Allyson

The premise of Eureka is that, once upon a time, Einstein and Truman made a secret deal to build a town where the world's awesomest scientists would all live, breed, collaborate, and build Weapons of Mass Destruction in an underground bunker beneath what appears to be stock footage of the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Of course, this all leads to wacky hijinks and the … [Read more...] about Eureka!

Gurl Interrupted: The Inside’s Special Agent Rebecca Locke

June 22, 2005 by Allyson

FOX's new crime drama, The Inside was created by Tim Minear, the man the Weekly Standard calls "one of the five best minds in television," and Howard Gordon (24) who is likely one of the unnamed other four.

The Inside's Rebecca Locke … [Read more...] about Gurl Interrupted: The Inside’s Special Agent Rebecca Locke

High Stakes Hootenanny

November 1, 2004 by Allyson

In the interest of full disclosure, I'm a lifelong Democrat, and I'm voting for John Kerry. That said, I briefly considered voting for Bush while at the Joss Whedon Fundraiser for Kerry, High Stakes 2004. It's not that I don't have a lot of love for Joss Whedon or John Kerry, it's just that I'm infuriatingly contrary. If I'm in a room full of people who all agree that something … [Read more...] about High Stakes Hootenanny

Wonderfalls: Fall In

March 11, 2004 by Allyson

The sadly canceled FOX caustic-romantic-dramedy Wonderfalls is now available on DVD. I'm here to tell you why to watch, and why, despite the press' comparisons, this is so not Joan of Arcadia. There is no god. There is no message in morality. No one asks any tough questions about why the kid in the wheelchair can't walk, and why there's a serial murderer running loose. There … [Read more...] about Wonderfalls: Fall In

PopGurls for Thought

Johnny Depp is the gayest pirate ever to hit the mainstream. There is, perhaps, gay porn where the actors pretend to be pirates, and that possibly might be more gay. - Amanda, "Ahoy Ye Teenies"

The Random

Literally, in a wheelchair, this guy could kick anyone’s ass. He is the manliest man alive. They don’t get manlier than Ricardo Montalban. I think he’s manlier than anyone on any show I’ve ever been on. -- Javier Grillo-Marxuach
