First Look at Emma Watson in Perks of Being a Wallflower

Who can help that the Harry Potter alums are so likable, intelligent, and cute? I cannot. I have tried, and more than once. Emma Watson’s Perks of Being a Wallflower co-star Logan Lerman snapped Twitpics of most of the cast hanging out behind the scenes, and Watson’s picture is the most magnetic. Look at those still-childlike eyes! Accio, her genes.

Legendary Abbott and Costello and Honeymooners Scribe Leonard Stern Dies at 88

Leonard Stern, who created the seminal ’50s sitcom The Honeymooners with Jackie Gleason and wrote 12 feature films (including two Abbott and Costello vehicles), died on Tuesday at age 88 in Los Angeles. In addition to acting as head writer for The Steve Allen Show and producer of the flat-out funniest show of the ’60s, Get Smart , Stern also served as president of the Producers Guild of America. Let’s honor his legacy with a clip from one of his first films, a little flick about a dynastic duo venturing overseas.

Who Scored Big in Week Ten of SNL’s Not-Ready-for-Prime-Time-Player Relevancy Poll?

So… is it safe to talk about SNL again? While I was trying to get as much sleep as possible in the foxhole that I embedded myself in last night , I got the feeling that a few of you were not quite as happy with Saturday night’s show as I seemed to be. But here’s the thing: In the scorecard I did mention that (the now polarizing) Jeff Bridges was far from the best host of the season and that Saturday was also not the laugh-out-loud funniest show of the season. I’ll admit, perhaps this is a flaw with the scoring system used, but what the Bridges installment had was a plethora of sketches that received a score between six and seven. Bridges had eight “good” sketches and only four “bad.” Put it this way: if every sketch had been given a score of 6.5, it would be the top rated show of the season. Having said all of that, I still very much liked Saturday’s installment. OK, let’s get to the poll.

SNL Scorecard: Did Jeff Bridges Host the Best Show of the Year, Son?

Perhaps I’m in the holiday spirit (maybe), perhaps it’s the amount of wine consumed from back-to-back holiday parties (more likely), but last night’s Jeff Bridges-hosted installment of Saturday Night Live was, well, quite great. Not the laugh-out-loud funniest show of the season, but, from top to bottom, there wasn’t a whole lot of “bad.” I mean, it was so good that the best sketch of the night was the third to last of the show. Bridges, who last co-hosted in 1983 with his brother Beau, did an admirable job as host but, more importantly, did an admirable job of not getting in the way of a cast that was obviously on a mission before they took a break for the holidays.
