'Cougar Town': Now That's What I Call a Single Glass of Red Wine!

Cougar TownI’ve started deliberately drinking red wine whenever I watch Cougar Town. It’s become like any cooking show: You need to indulge in whatever’s on-screen or the Agony and the Envy will reduce you to a bitter, craving mess. I realized last night that I’ve been pouring my wine incorrectly this whole time. And I need to remember to take the first sip hands-free, but I should be using my hands while driving a car. Thank you, Cougar Town, for teaching me how to live more fabulously. As Jules said in last night’s episode, “Turn This Car Around,” Bite me! I can still change! Bitches be loco. Which life lessons have you sipped hands-free from Cougar Town? A few more full-boded, fruity revelations with slight hints of oak after the jump… READ FULL STORY »

'Survivor: Heroes vs Villians': Ousted Villain calls his vote flip the dumbest move in 'Survivor' history

Filed under: Reality TV, Television and tagged: , ,

Well, that was really stupid. That was the first thought that went through my mind as well as the minds of about 11 million other people when Tyson Apostol nonsensically changed his vote at Tribal Council, thereby ensuring his own departure after Russell passed off his hidden immunity idol to Parvati. What was he thinking? Why did he do it? The lanky wisecracker reveals all — right here, right now. (Check back tomorrow for an interview with ousted Hero James Clement.) READ FULL STORY »

Pamela Anderson on Leno: That sounds gross

pam-andersonImage Credit: Paul Drinkwater/NBCNovice ballroom dancer/Sparkalien Pamela Anderson’s interview on last night’s Tonight Show with Jay Leno was pretty standard, with Jay making the “pole” and “dancing” connection into play whenever possible. But these two things stood out. First: Pamela Anderson did a commercial for Walkers Crisps (“American chips suck,” said the Canadian) and she’s still waiting for a lifetime supply of “the funny flavors” to be sent her way. Where are Pamela Anderson’s crisps, you daft bahhhstads? And then there’s this: “With all the things I’ve done in my life, I’m not going down on the foxtrot.” Hear that, Kate Gosselin? You’re history. Video — with bonus footage of Kevin Eubanks’ head on Ed Helms’ body — after the jump. READ FULL STORY »

Dame Edna is co-hosting 'The View.' Right now.

Well, this is a refreshing change. Dame Edna is co-hosting The View today. File under Gay/Lesbian/Kathy Griffin! “I knew I was gonna be with these ladies, so I dressed down,” she said. I’m glad she explained. I can barely find her in the shot! Later in the show, Dame Edna will be performing songs from her Michael Feinstein Broadway show, All About Me. I’ve already counted three dramatic, prolonged eye rolls toward Elisabeth Hasselbeck and we’re not even through Hot Topics! She just asked if there’s ever been an Eskimo contestant on American Idol and what it means to tweet someone. You probably want to turn this on. (Or just watch it online later.)

'America's Next Top Model' recap: Dance, dance, meh-volution

Tyra-Banks-ModelImage Credit: Mike Ruiz/The CWIf the next cycle of this show doesn’t have some kind of compelling gimmick (actual human feelings) or twist (Born Agains vs. Atheists), I think we might have to part ways. A dance-inspired challenge? Excuse me while I try to wrest myself from this coma. Nope, I couldn’t do it, coma: 1, Tyra: 0. A blah challenge, warmed-over fights, dated references, and an elimination that arrived by telegraph months ago — Top Model, why have you forsaken me? READ FULL STORY »

'Vampire Diaries' costume designer Jennifer Bryan talks shirtless scenes and leather jackets

vampire-diariesImage Credit: Kharen Hill/The CWAt last, The Vampire Diaries returns tonight (The CW, 8 p.m. EST)! To get us through the last leather jacket-less month, we phoned costume designer Jennifer Bryan as she was out and about in Atlanta looking for pumps to talk about all the shirtlessness we were missing, the secret to buying a leather jacket (one of the excellent reader questions submitted for her), and what we have to look forward to next (Damon on a bender!).

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Let’s just get right to it. The shirtlessness: Is that something that’s usually in the script, or something you negotiate with the actors?

JENNIFER BRYAN: There’s a couple of ways that it has evolved. I would say almost all the time, the writers put it in. But they dole it out in small measures. If the story calls for it, that’s what happens. But I don’t think they had expected such a strong positive reaction, like, “More! More!” READ FULL STORY »

'Ugly Betty' Bites: 11 super quips from last night's braces-removing episode, 'Million Dollar Smile'!

ugly-bettyImage Credit: Eric Liebowitz/ABCWe’ve known since the beginning of the season that the days were numbered for Betty’s braces, but last night, the ugly things finally came off! “Goodbye braces!” Betty screamed at the beginning of the hour. And it all happened in a stunning episode that featured one of my faves, Kathy Najimy (above, with Betty), as Betty’s orthodontist and ghostly shepherd through what the magazine editor’s life would have been like had she always had a perfect smile. In short, such a scenario would have been horrible: Betty would have been Willy’s right-hand woman and the managing editor at Mode; Hilda would have been the “ugly sister” and Justin never would have been born (and thus, he never would have reunited with Austin last night, after last week’s kiss!); Ignacio would have been a skeeze-ball with a mean, demanding bookie; Marc would have been a cowering receptionist at Mode; and Betty would have slept with Daniel at some point in this other dimension. Say it ain’t so!

Thankfully, it wasn’t a permanent future.

'Fly Girls' premiere recap: That's 'in-flight team member' to you

Fly-Girls-VirginLooking for a change in your life? Like traveling to exotic locations? Still think it’s 1960? You may be the perfect fit to join the cast of Fly Girls.

The CW’s newest reality show follows five female flight attendants who also happen to be roommates at “the crash pad” in Marina Del Ray, CA. Working and living together? And they’ll have their lives taped? What kind of radical programming is this?!

In the show’s opening montage, each explained her reasons for venturing into the air, and all focused on the common desire to “stand out.” Each wanted to kick the dust off their sleepy home towns and escape the confines of the typical “white picket fence” existence. Now that they live such glamorous lives, it’s their job to make us at home jealous that we don’t get to go through the hassle of airport security five times a week. READ FULL STORY »

'Hot Tub Time Machine' exclusive: Inside the wardrobe

Filed under: Movies and tagged: ,

In Hot Tub Time Machine, in theaters Friday, three men (John Cusack, Rob Corddry, and Craig Robinson) and a nephew (Clark Duke) are transported back to 1986. That means costume designer Dayna Pink got to explore what to her was the best time in fashion: “Crazy cuckoo colors…. shoulder pads, bright, bright leggings, and bikinis and boobs!” In the exclusive featurette below, Pink and the cast examine the authenticity on set. As in the movie, Corddry steals the show*: “I actually immediately start pining for old girlfriends,” he says about being surrounded by big-haired extras. “Luckily, these are tight pants and I can work it out.” (If that joke offended you, do not see this movie. If you laughed, have fun!)

* Tied with Crispin Glover, who plays a one-armed bellhop whose limb was still attached in 1986.
