One of the hot button documentaries this year at Sundance was 8: The Mormon Proposition , which examines the Mormon Church’s role in passing the anti-gay Proposition 8 in California and happens to be narrated by the openly gay, prominently ex-Mormon writer/director Dustin Lance Black ( Milk , the upcoming What’s Wrong with Virginia ).

Octomom Says No to Reality (TV)

Posted on April 20, 2010 by | Leave a comment

Even though she inked a reality TV deal with a Netherlands-based production company, Octomom Nadya Suleman revealed on Oprah today that she won’t ever film herself for a series. “A parent must provide for their kids, not the other way around,” the mother of 14 told Winfrey., adding that the moniker “Octomom” makes her feel like “a carnival attraction.” While she may not go through with a reality series, I think Louis Van Amstel should prepare a carnival barker-themed rumba for her inevitable trek to DWTS .

HBO Renews Curb Your Enthusiasm

Posted on April 20, 2010 by | Leave a comment

After a resurgent season that brought us the long-awaited Seinfeld reunion, HBO and Larry David have decided to move ahead with an eighth go-around of Curb Your Enthusiasm . Says David: “After much soul searching — and by the way, it was nowhere to be found — I have decided to do another season of Curb . I look forward to the end of shooting, when I can once again resume the hunt for my elusive soul. I know it’s here somewhere or perhaps in the rugged mountainous regions of Pakistan.” In other television news, NBC renewed Parenthood for a second season, though they didn’t make an Osama Bin Laden joke while doing so.

Kal Penn Robbed

Posted on April 20, 2010 by | Leave a comment

The move to Washington, D.C. , was supposed to the beginning of Kal Penn’s new idealistic career in politics. Early this morning it turned nightmarish as the Harold and Kumar series star was reportedly robbed at gunpoint while walking in the city. The assailant took Penn’s wallet and other personal property; he wasn’t otherwise harmed. Naturally the only response to this in the moment, ” What would Neil Patrick Harris do? “, but too little too late. [ TMZ ]

For that sector’s moviegoers, 4/20 (based on the shorthand derived from the time of day legendarily associated with ganja intake) this year boasts a few events around the country that might put your quasi-holiday over the top:
