American Girl announced on Monday that it will be shuttling the Victorian-era Samantha doll off to "the American Girl archives," forever. For those of you who don't remember, Samantha was the turn-of-the-century orphaned rich girl who lived with her grandmother and had all of the best outfits. Samantha's books will still be available (because where would American literature be without the classic tome Samantha Learns A Lesson?) but her doll, including the doll of her servant girl/best friend Nellie, will be taken away to $90 doll heaven sometime in the near future. Intern Margaret suspects that this is a marketing ploy by Mattel since she thinks she remembers them threatening to close the curtains on the Felicity doll not too long ago. Either way, we blame Kit Kittredge. [PopWatch] More »

In the weeks (and months) leading up to today - the theatrical release of the Sex and the City movie - everyone has been weighing in on what the show's real significance is, whether these wealthy, sexed-up characters are even feminists, and whether Carrie Bradshaw was even a friggin' sex writer. (In my opinion, she wasn't. She was more invested in dating dicks, not sucking them.) But finally, all the talk and the analyzing and searching for deeper meaning in this shallow show can stop for about 2.5 hours today, because I'm liveblogging the movie. I'm going to a regular old movie theater in Manhattan (the city is the 5th character, didn't ya know?). I'm dying to see who exactly is going to be there at 10:15 AM…and what kind of shoes they'll be wearing. Don't worry. I'll be taking pictures. More »
