The Duggar Family

The Duggar family of Little Rock, Arkansas, announced on the Today show this week that they are expecting their 18th child. The Duggars, who will soon be profiled again on the Discovery Channel, seem like nice, god-faring people but has anyone else noticed that Momma Duggar seems to go to the same hair stylist as the women from the Texas polygamist sect? Even their children’s clothes have that Little House on the Prairie-vibe. I’m just sayin’. Apparently, the Duggars are followers of the evangelical Protestant movement called Quiverful, which teaches that children are a blessing from God that parents should happily welcome.

Even though YouTube pulled the clip of WNBC anchor Sue Simmons ripping someone an new a-hole, you can’t stop the evil forces of the internet. Here’s the clip, courtesy of the good people at 23/6.

I Sense a Gladiator Switcheroo

Posted in Reality TV with tags on May 13, 2008 by zapps76

The new season of American Gladiators premiered last night and fans might have noticed a switching up of the meaty cast. To sum up: Gladiators Stealth, Fury, and Mayhem are gone. We will miss Mayhem the most, if only because he says his real age is 44 but his “Hollywood Age” is 34. Replacing them are new pink-haired gladiator Phoenix and the winners from last year: Evan “Rocket” Dollard, who would resemble a strapping college quarterback but in Gladiator Land is kind of a Steve Urkel; and smokingly hot former Portland Trailblazers dancer Monica “Jet” Carlson, who we learned today is not only extremely cut but half a foot taller than us. And weighs the same. We give the skank one season.

Tuning Out ‘Workout’

Posted in Reality TV with tags , on May 13, 2008 by robbsling

Jackie Warner’s ego has always been enormous, but this season it’s on steroids.

I used think of the show as be one of those repulsive things you can’t look away from. Not the bodies, of course, they’re top notch. It was more Jackie Warner and some of her employees’ attitudes that turned me off.

But now that Jackie has fired Brian Peeler, who seems like a decent guy, I’ll have have even less reason to watch. And what happened in the lead-up to him being fired is pretty outrageous. She really showed her true colors.

According to Towerload.com, some people have said that Jackie may have let her assistant take the fall for comments about the fake breasts of one of Peeler’s clients. Turns out his client had cancer, and her boyfriend overheard what was said.

When Peeler confronted Jackie about it, she fired him.

SJP’s Jolly Green Giant Head

Sarah Jessica Parker

There were two things wrong with the Sex and the City movie premiere today in jolly old England…First, why on earth would the world premiere of the long awaited SATC movie occur overseas in London and not New York? Anyone? Anyone? Second, SJP went all vertical with her red carpet get up, sporting this peacock-like monstrosity on her head.

NBC Hearts Jimmy Fallon

Posted in Comedy with tags , , on May 12, 2008 by amybo

It’s official! Jimmy Fallon has been named as Conan O’Brien’s replacement on “Late Night.” I don’t know about you but the last time I saw Fallon I think he was in some dumb baseball movie starring opposite Drew Barrymore. Before that I think it was that big old turkey Taxi with Queen Latifah. Apparently crappy movies and lame Bee Gees skits on SNL equal a prime spot on late night TV. Well, he’s got at least one fan out there (besides NBC) and that person created this Jimmy Fallon montage on YouTube.

MacLuber

MacGruber almost saved the day with a battery, a bottle cap, a rubber band, and some anal lube.

Am I the only one who thinks this bit is hilarious? Actually, am I the only one who still watches “Saturday Night Live”? Whatever, MacGruber has me on the floor every time. I might even start drinking milk while I watch it just so I can blow it out my nose.

I have a few more question, too. Why was the vibrator pixilated? And why doesn’t WordPress allow “SNL” clips to be embedded?
