GOOP
I was all set to say something like
"I've never found myself running to my room, closing the door, then sinking to the floor, overcome with emotion like they do on 90210. And every After School Special since 1979."
But then I find this and I can't think of such trivial things.
Oh Gwyneth. She's so wise. Or insane. One of the two.
"Make your life good. Invest in what's real. Cook a meal for someone you love. Pause before reacting. Clean out your space. Read something beautiful. Treat yourself to something. Go to a city you've never been to. Learn something new. Don't be lazy. Workout and stick with it. GOOP. Make it great."
I don't know what it means, but I signed up for the newsletter.Labels: Fall TV, Gwyneth

Bad
I hope that no one else wasted time and or tivo space by watching Do Not Disturb, which is supposed to be "a hilarious workplace comedy." At least, that's according to the press release.
I can tell you that working in a hotel is NOTHING like that. And who designed the back of house? Ikea?
I couldn't even handle the full 30 minutes. I ended up fast forwarding through the last 10.
Please. Please don't watch.Labels: Fall TV

Fringe
"Excellent. Let's make some LSD."
All shows should have lines like that.Labels: Fall TV

Gossip Girl
I always enjoy the caustic wit of Kristen Bell's Gossip Girl. It almost makes up for not having Veronica Mars. (It does not, however, make up for Q borrowing my season 2 DVDs more than one year ago with no sign of return. But I digress.)
Even though the season premiere was last week, it still felt too much like summer. But now that it's below 60 degrees here, it seems like the right time to discuss the following issues:
Pro:
Madchen Amick (I almost watched Viva Laughlin for her. Almost.)
Dan and Serena
Vitamin Water product placement
Serena's hair at the white party
Serena's blue dress at Blair's house
Con:
Chuck's costumes. (Stop wearing inappropriately colored suits. Sea foam green and burgundy are not good news.)
Luckily Madchen helps us to forget the monstrosity known as Chuck's wardrobe. Although she's only scheduled for three episodes before she starts in on My Own Worst Enemy. What I don't understand is why she can't do both? This is the woman who, at one time in 2005, was appearing on ER, Jake in Progress and Joey - ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
Please don't make me watch a Christian Slater drama. I just don't have the time.Labels: Fall TV
