The long-awaited and scandal generating Sex and the City knock-off Cashmere Mafia from SatC creator Darren Star will premiere this Sunday, and reviewers have already taken out a hit on it. Just like in Sex, Mafia centers around four women in the big city, but these women are more interested in boardrooms than bedrooms...or something. Lucy Liu plays the Carrie Bradshavian lead, Mia, who works in publishing but on the business side. The other three characters do other business-y type stuff but their descriptions bored me to tears, so I'll just mention that one of them is flirting with lesbianism. Anyhoo, the critical reception of Mafia has been uniformly terrible (reviewers have called the characters "parodies", "caricatures" and "stereotypes"), save for the South Florida Sun Sentinel, which calls the show "slick and exquisitely cast." (Maybe they've let all that Florida sun bleach their brains.) Check out the rest of the critical carnage after the jump. More »

Most of us can agree: The Sex and the City-ization of our society has gone too far. But neither the proliferation of the pink cocktail nor the flock of wannabe Carrie Bradshaws springing up in college papers [And downtown New York City. -Ed.] seem quite as vulgar as the idea of Manolo Blahnik shoes for men. Apparently, the shoe line popularized by a certain HBO series is being brought to the menfolk come February, and if we may say so ourselves, the shit is god-awful. But don't take our word for it. In the interest of "fairness", we decided to conduct an informal survey of male responses to the fancy footwear and asked four men — Thomas, 28, a hetero web designer; Nick, 30, a hetero litigator; Gabe, 27, a hetero writer; and Bennett, 25, a WASPy, gay MBA candidate) for their thoughts. (Gabe, on the shoe shown above: "I'll wear a prissy shoe faster than the average straight man... but a slingback paired with a broad man's toe is like putting a spoiler on the back of a station wagon.") The dudes (well, mostly Thomas) continue to weigh in after the jump. More »
