The Mike & Molly Fat Tracker: ‘You’re Sweating Like a 300 Pound Hooker in Church’

Posted on January 4, 2011 by | Leave a comment

What is the one thing worse than sitting through a three-hour opera while sick? Watching an overweight sitcom character sweat through a three-hour opera while he’s sick. Hence last night’s episode of Mike & Molly , “Mike Goes to the Opera,” in which Mike caught a virus and his friends and family missed no less than ten opportunities to make fat jokes at his blubbery expense. “Don’t they just put animals your size down when they get sick?”* Hey-oh?

True Grit’s Hailee Steinfeld on Nerves, Stunts and Her Coen Brothers Crash Course

Posted on December 20, 2010 by | Comments Off

Barely a week past her 14th birthday, Hailee Steinfeld has accomplished a fistful of feats most of her Hollywood contemporaries would kill for. Starting with this week’s True Grit , she makes in her feature-film debut as the female lead of a Coen Brothers movie. Grit ‘s studio Paramount, meanwhile, has Steinfeld at the front of the Oscar pack in the Best Supporting Actress category. And then there’s the little matter of whom she’s supporting — and whom Steinfeld matches scene for scene, tone for tone, line for dense line.

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

Posted on December 20, 2010 by | Comments Off

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?

Posted on December 19, 2010 by | Comments Off

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.

The King’s Speech, The Fighter and The Social Network Lead Golden Globe Nominees

Posted on December 14, 2010 by | Comments Off

It looks like the Hollywood Foreign Press missed their screening of True Grit . The Coen Brothers Oscar favorite was completely ignored during this morning’s nominations for the 68th Annual Golden Globe awards, meaning young Hailee Steinfeld won’t get to rub elbows with an inebriated Brendan Fraser come Jan. 16. Don’t be too upset, though: The HFPA found room to nominate Johnny Depp…twice! Also, Red . Click ahead for the nominees.

Posted on December 14, 2010 by | Comments Off

Mike & Molly rebounded from a particularly fat joke free episode with last night’s “First Christmas,” in which the plump lovebirds shared, well, their first Christmas, while their friends and family members lobbed unfunny size-ist insults at them. Don’t you just love sitcom holidays? Let’s review the awful zingers.
