Yes to the Dress

"Weddings are so weird. This veil costs more than my couch.” - Liz Lemon, "SeinfeldVision," 30 Rock. In the very first episode of TLC’s hit wedding show Say Yes to the Dress, bride-to-be Kim describes trying on the dress she chose to be her wedding dress: “I found the dress.

It’s My TV Show and I’ll Cry If I Want To

I have a hard time getting into the weekly ritual of watching TV shows (with the exception of Downton Abbey), but recently I got into watching The Mindy Project. The show’s created and written by Mindy Kaling, who played Kelly on The Office (and actually started out there as a writer). I’ve always found her... Continue Reading →

R.I.P. Walkman

First, it was the Polaroid camera. Now, the Walkman is the latest archaic piece of technology to be retired by its creators. Twenty years from now, we'll probably laugh about the fact that we ever owned smart phones. I was pretty bummed to learn about the Walkman's demise.  What's so bad about the Walkman?! They always came equipped with... Continue Reading →

King of the World (Again)

Just when I thought we were finished with director James Cameron for good, he returns from his hiding place to create and direct this year’s most talked about blockbuster, Avatar. Avatar has broken movie records while taking animation into the next dimension.  In addition, the film is up for a record amount of Oscars at this... Continue Reading →
