‘Celebrity Apprentice’ Recap: FINALLY THE FINALE

The Celebrity Apprentice two-hour “live” season finale was about an hour and 45 minutes too long. I put “live” in quotations because, yes, the winner was revealed live and Trumpet brought back all the fired celebs in order to patronize them live and Kenya Moore went out of her way to kiss Ivanka Trump’s ass […]

Little Caesars to roll out bacon-wrapped deep dish pizza

With Pizza Hut basically cornering the market on what can be stuffed inside a pizza crust, Little Caesars is pushing the boundaries of possibility for the crust itself.

Is TBS speeding up ‘Seinfeld’ reruns for more commercials?

Is TBS actually providing less Seinfeld for the money? Or rather, is the network making its syndicated reruns of the show faster to make more money?

Long-time fans of Modern Family know that Phil Dunphy is a big fan of Apple products.

But Modern Family‘s love affair with Apple products and […]

Seven Movies You Shouldn’t Watch With Your Parents

When I was 14, I rented Unforgiven to watch with my grandpa while visiting his house for a weekend. Being a big fan of westerns, I figured he would enjoy one that had recently won an Oscar for Best Picture and starred Clint Eastwood. While my grandpa was a fan of westerns, he was a […]

‘Kingsman’ has fun, but is far too obvious with its intentions

What happens when you combine Men in Black with X-Men: First Class and the James Bond franchise, circa 1970? You get Kingsman: The Secret Service, director Matthew Vaughn’s tribute to spy films from past generations that favored style and fun over gritty action and gravely serious plotlines. That might sound like I’m knocking Kingsman for […]

A haunted house horror film directed by Guillermo del Toro? Sign us up! When can we see this? Referring to del Toro’s new film, Crimson Peak, as a haunted house movie may be reductive, as the story appears to be richer than simply a tale of a house inhabited by ghosts and scarred by terrible […]

Video: Bradley Cooper, Emma Stone have chemistry in ‘Aloha’ trailer

I consider myself a big fan of Cameron Crowe’s movies (and music writing), but it’s difficult to argue that he’s made a good film since Almost Famous in 2000. Since then, he’s directed Vanilla Sky (2001), Elizabethtown (2005) and We Bought a Zoo (2011) — along with two documentaries, including 2011’s Pearl Jam Twenty (which […]

Why I will not read or watch ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’

Writing is hard. Wait, I’m sorry. Writing WELL is hard. I hope to do it one day. But I know what I like, and I know what I don’t, and when Twilight first came out, I immediately filed that under “Just Say No” and moved on with my life. Rumor had it that it was […]
