Buffy The Vampire Slayer ended its run in 2003, and since then, there's been a Sarah Michelle Gellar-shaped hole in American televisions. This fall, SMG returns to the small screen in Ringer, a weird and complicated thriller we're ridiculously excited about. More »

Gwyneth Paltrow has tired of the cosmetics contract gravy train; no longer shall the actress concentrate on embodying the qualities of the Estée Lauder brand. Instead, she'll be the new, white Oprah! [Daily Mail]

Brown and Georgetown grad Johanna Cox is...

Dodai Stewart — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 15:40:00 EST

Brown and Georgetown grad Johanna Cox is the front-runner on the CW's new show Stylista, and in an interview with the Washington Post, she talks about why she's always so calm and mature on camera: "I thought about my parents, and my current boss, and if I actually won, any future boss would see this. I watch so much reality TV, I knew how I would come across. So I think maybe this is the reward for having watched Rock of Love and all those horrible shows." [Washington Post] More »

The CW's New Shows Are Lacking In Color

Dodai Stewart — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 15:00:00 EDT

When I heard that there was going to be a black kid on the new 90210, I celebrated for about three seconds. Then I read that he was adopted. What a fucking cop out. It's been 18 years since The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, 24 years since The Cosby Show and 33 years since The Jeffersons. Why can't there be a black kid living in an affluent neighborhood who has his own money? Or has ONE rich black parent? A lawyer, doctor, politician, sports star, rapper, something? Because, thanks to The OC, Laguna Beach, The Hills, and Gossip Girl, it's not like we don't see enough wealthy young white people in primetime. More »

Loose Lips

Even though it received tepid at best reviews, the new 90210 was a ratings hit for the CW. According to Just Jared, "4.9 million viewers tuned into Tuesday’s two-hour premiere," the highest debut for a scripted TV show ever on the fledgling network. • Blind Item! "Which celeb pair snuck off to the toilets during the GQ awards do for a cheeky shag?" • Kate Hudson says her divorce from rocker Chris Robinson "best thing that ever happened" to the former couple. "No matter what is going on in my life, relationship-wise, Chris takes absolute precedence," Hudson said. "It's important for Ryder to hear me say how wonderful Chris is, and how much Chris misses him." [Just Jared, Dlisted, Us] More »

Miss Uncongeniality: Mother/Daughter Pageant Show Debuts Tonight

Jennifer — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 13:20:00 EST

"There's no reality-show figure quite so odious, these days, as the mother who tries to upstage her kids," writes Joanna Weiss in the Boston Globe today. Indeed! (Kathy Hilton, are you listening?) Unfortunately, the CW network, home to such beloved television programs such as Veronica Mars, Gilmore Girls, and America's Next Top Model will be premiering a new show tonight, Crowned, in which mothers and daughters compete in teams against other mother/daughter duos in a beauty pageant. (Naturally, they also live in one house together. ) So how is it? The critics speak, after the jump. More »

When I saw leggy Serena van der Woodsen swilling martini after martini in the Gossip Girl pilot, I knew that my love for the teen drama would be a deep and nuanced love. As the series has progressed, the martini use has doubled — nay, tripled — per episode. So I decided to count the number of martinis downed by the collective cast in last night's episode, which centered around Blair's famed slumber party of the century. More »
