SNL Scorecard: Other Than Helen Mirren’s Breasts, A Very Flat Night

Posted on April 10, 2011 by | Leave a comment

There’s really no way to soften the blow here: Helen Mirren’s turn as Saturday Night Live host was a massive disappointment. Flat, flat, flat… everything the whole night — well, except her breasts in one sketch — was flat. Resorting to the tired and meta ” SNL isn’t funny anymore” jokes as early as the cold open reveals a staff that appears to be looking ahead to its three-week break ( SNL , thankfully at this point, doesn’t return until May 7). So, yeah, enjoy your break, guys. Please think of something funny while you’re gone. Meanwhile, on to a very depressing scorecard…

The rest is here:

SNL Scorecard: Did a Slew of Cameos Save Elton John’s Show?

Posted on April 4, 2011 by | Leave a comment

What an odd night. Then again, when Elton John was announced as Saturday Night Live ‘s musical guest and host, perhaps an “odd night” should have been expected. But not quite like this.

SNL Scorecard: Miley Cyrus’ Show Was Not ‘Pretty Cool’

Posted on March 7, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Anytime Saturday Night Live brings on a “young, hip” entertainer, they have a history of dumbing down their material for the mass audience — which is exactly what happened last night with host Miley Cyrus. It’s obvious that there’s a concerted effort to appeal to the 16-year-old out there who has never watched SNL before, but was watching last night because Cyrus was hosting — a Cyrus, I should add, who came off a bit smug at times (her monologue is a good example) and seemed to never really win over the studio audience.

Gleebasing: Where’s the Hate?

Posted on February 16, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Tuesday night’s episode of Glee , “The Comeback,” was dedicated to anyone who ever suggested that Sue Sylvester — one of the most deliciously villainous characters on television — is too evil. Because I am not in that demographic, I will address last night’s treatment of Sue Sylvester — from the fake suicide note to the pediatric cancer ward sing-along — like the affront to her character that it was. Who’s ready?

Gleebasing: Fat Bottomed Girls Make Valentine’s Day Go Round

Posted on February 9, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Phew! Glee shed that faux football-loving, thrill-seeking, Katy Perry-exploiting skin that it adopted for Super Bowl fans on Sunday , and got back to basics with last night’s Valentine’s Day episode, where Blaine explained that February 14th is the one day of the year when you can just tell the person you love how you feel. (Unless you belong to the Church of Love Actually , in which case that one day of the year is Christmas.) Meanwhile, Santana taught viewers that revenge is best served with glandular fever, and Ryan Murphy sold his soul to the Gap for a cute dance number. Let’s review the highs and lows.

The 13 Most Intriguing Revelations of The New Yorker’s Paul Haggis/Scientology Expose

Posted on February 8, 2011 by | Leave a comment

So you might have heard writer-director Paul Haggis caused a bit of a stir when he left the Church of Scientology in 2009. His defection, he said at the time, was attributable to the church’s reluctance to declare its tolerance toward gays and lesbians — an institutional blind spot exacerbated by its refusal in 2008 to condemn California’s Prop 8. But as a much-anticipated new profile in The New Yorker proves, there is a little more to the story. Like 24,000 words more.

‘Hell to the No!’: Gleebasing, Super Bowl Edition

Posted on February 8, 2011 by | Leave a comment

If certain drug users are most at risk of overdosing on their first hit after a period of sobriety, then the epic midseason premiere of Glee , “The Sue Sylvester Shuffle,” certainly sent some Glee basers into the hospital. (Located right behind the Breadstix and across the street from the intersection where Schue cried in his car.) Not only was the over-sized episode a shock to the previously Glee less system, but it was a new strain of Ryan Murphy drug, cut with Katy Perry singles, fake breasts, BMX bikes and Mel Gibson jokes. Whatever happened to the pure Glee that they aired back in 2010? Now that was the good sh*t.
