Hell hath no fury like a Helgenberger scorned

This video is like The Departed, but funny. I don't know why it works, but it does. Brilliant use of Imogen Heap's Hide and Seek. That song now joins T.I.'s What You Know and the Klaxon's Golden Skans in the soundtrack to my imaginary martial arts action movie bonanza.

Andy Samberg would totally star in MIMAAMB. Just look at him! Hot.





zooby, it's like SNL made An Intimate Moment with John Mayer & Jessica Simpson for you.



I think something is a little off with the costume and hair and makeup though. John and Jessica looks more like Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash.

I think the lovely and talented women (go read their hilarious assessment of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip) of Boob Tube will especially appreciate this parody of Studio 60 on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.



Studio 6A on the 6th Floor of Rockefeller Plaza is a spot-on lampooning of the things that are wrong with Studio 60: the self-importance, the melodrama wrung out of the most mundane stuff (punching a booker because he lied to Conan about a guest having a clip), the forced juxtaposition of Serious Issues with funny things (a philosophical evalution of the Masturbating Bear who began his part in the video in a Platoon-esque pose). The video also hit on other Sorkin tics like the mass-firing of employees and replacing them with a couple of unqualified people (in this case, three writers with one janitor). I also like the the Mary-Sueification of Conan by having Liev Schreiber play him, and the menacing Asian who threatens to upset the status quo, v. mini yellow peril. Oh, and the pedeconferencing.

Last week's Scrubs was so great. All the elements that made Scrubs Scrubs are back and that weird feeling of watching a bad copycat Scrubs that has been with me since the start of this season is gone. Elliot was espeically hot in My Words of Wisdom, with her cute black lacey top and Brigitte Bardot hair. Her last scene where she went from vulnerable fear to relieved happiness in a matter of seconds was very moving.

I was looking for pictures of Charlotte Rampling when I stumbled upon mrsrobinsonanon. How cool is it that there's a community "for girls who worship sexy older women"?!

ETA 2:
It's so unfair that Andy Barker P.I. is cancelled and Studio 60 isn't.
