Dirty Dancing Gone Wrong
It’s all Amanda’s fault, really. We’re innocent parties in the whole shenanigans. Because neither of us would have willingly gone to see Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights by choice. A long time ago, Amanda had managed to brainwash Shana into thinking…
Eureka!
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…
Buffy: Normal Again?
I am intrigued. Not by the Anya/Xander storyline. Not by Willow. Or Dawn or Xander. By Buffy. I’m actually intrigued by Buffy. I know, I know, I just wrote her off! However, if the end of “Normal Again” is ever…
Buffy: When It Was Bad
Y’know how there’s that stuff that makes watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer worthwhile? This is really and truly not it. Just like our Best of… List, The 31 or so Things About Buffy That Make Us Want to Hurl are…
Ok, Get Set, Go
The first time I’d ever heard of Ok Go, they were on stage with the ‘This American Life’ tour at the Town Hall in New York City. Ira Glass deemed them his favorite boy band and mentioned that they were…
Things I Never Stopped Loving from The 90s – The Jessica Edition
1. Juliana Hatfield My first introduction to Juliana Hatfield came from MTV’s Sunday night alternative video show, 120 Minutes (another favorite below). They would always show her video for “What A Life” and “My Sister.” I immediately ran out to…
Chicks or Peeps?
I have a confession to make. I actually got a sneak peak of the Dixie Chicks new album three weeks ago when I was lucky enough to score tickets to a live taping of an NBC special slated to air…
View From a Hill
I’ve been to Indigo Girls concerts in four different states, and seen them in all sorts of venues – everything from small clubs to performing arts halls to a college gymnasium and outdoor concert pavilions. The experience, though, is always…
Pug Hill
Alison Pace, author of If Andy Warhol Had a Girlfriend, follows up that enjoyable book with another funny novel that may not have grabbed me as much as her debut, but was still plenty of fun to read. This time,…
Dawson’s Creek Trickles Out
So, the gurls asked me to do a little recap on Season Six for you wonderful readers out there, a little companion piece to the wrap up I did on the first five. This was, originally, not a good plan,…
Almost Mizguided
I’m sort of mad at Pink. See, the first time I listened to her new album, M!ssundaztood, I got a distinct early-80s vibe from it. In fact, I felt very strongly that if one were to discover a long-lost John…
Got the Job Done?
Amy and Amanda hit separate coasts to see The Italian Job. Here’s what they thought… Amanda: I just want to say up front that I was not a fan of The Italian Job. Amy: I rather liked it. I wasn’t…
Hot Gossip
Within the past couple of years, there has been a huge influx of indie bands that have had the limelight thrust upon them by various media outlets. Television of late has seemed to jump on the bandwagon more than usual,…
Buffy: In Love for the First Time With a Dead Guy
I’m supposed to be writing about B/A ‘shippers. That would be Buffy/Angel ‘shippers, for the oblivious. Problem is, I don’t know a whole lot about them, nor do I care. I’ve heard rumors about some of their antics (letter writing,…
Bubba Delivers
I must admit, I remember hearing the single “Ugly” off Bubba Sparxxx’s 1999 debut album, Dark Days, Bright Nights but only vaguely. It was likeable enough, but had the feel of a novelty tune, which probably explains my vague memory…
Alias: One in Five, Bitch
Season finales, on a whole, are over-hyped, overblown debacles of painful proportions. An entire season builds up to one hour, that damn finale that’s usually way too predictable and never seems to quite tie everything together in a way that…
SNL: We're Really Going To Miss You
The rumors of Saturday Night Live facing the departure of their biggest stars have been flying for a few months now, so fans of the show tuned in with already-heavy hearts, bracing themselves for the last of powerhouse Kristen Wiig,…
Dawson’s Creek: Capeside Redemption
Laura: I’ll preface this bit by admitting, up front, that I was pretty much in tears for most of the Dawson’s Creek finale. Not for the episode itself (more on that later) but for the fact that it was ending.…
Buffy: Drink Up, Friends
Written by Michelle, Amy, Melynee and Kristen After a group-viewing of the hideous, craptastic Xander/Anya wedding, we realized that we’d be hard-pressed to make it through yet another episode of this once excellent show without some outside help. Because, people,…
Soul Punx Unite
Written by P. E. Nelson “SOUL PUNX UNITE,” reads the legend on the illustration on the cover of this disc – an apt clue to what lies in store on Kish Kash, the third installment from the dynamic duo of…
