With the current controversy on the polygamous cult in Texas it was is inevitable that Big Love celebrities were asked to comment on the issue. The show does raise important ethical themes or psychological repercussions, but Ginnifer Goodwin (who plays one of Bill Paxton’s three wives) says their version is “sugar-coated.”
“My character does not come from that world. She’s married into a family who come from that world but are no longer a part of it. My clothes on the show are a little outdated, not my personal taste, but certainly not ‘compound chic.’”
Kylie Minogue told Ellen Degeneres that her doctor had misdiagnosed her cancer. She had gone on the show to promote her new album, but was inspired by Hillary Clinton’s comments on the importance of early detection to reveal her secret.
“Listen, this is an opportunity for me to say something that I have not said before,” Minogue said, who is now in remission. She had a mammogram which came out clear, then found a lump in her breast weeks later. “So my message to all of you and everyone at home is, because someone is in a white coat and using big medical instruments doesn’t necessarily mean they are right. If you have any doubt, go back again.”
Whoopi Goldberg was visibly upset about being left out of the Oscar tribute to past hosts of the award ceremonies. Now, the producers are apologizing profusely. “Gil Cates called me yesterday,” Goldberg said on the ABC daytime show, The View. “He made an oversight, pure and simple.”
William Buckley, political commentator, debator, and talk show star of “Firing Line” died of natural causes.
At his peak, Buckley was a sauve and highly admired commentator who helped pioneer the idea of “entertaining political commentary.” His sharp wit and well researched insights, along with his insider information on White House movements, still set the bar for good political TV.
It’s a Monday today and TV-holics all across the land are preparing to watch the newest episode of the second season of Heroes.
Just like any TV addict and hardcore comicbook/sci-fi fan, I took to Heroes like Mulder took to sunflower seeds. The first season of Heroes was as dope as it could be. Tim Kring’s writers succeeded in writing the intricate subplots in such a way that it flowed effortlessly onscreen. It was not confusing and enough time was given to each and everyone to really tell their stories and for viewers to fall in love with the characters. I think the evolution of the Man with the Horn-rimmed Glasses as a character is one of the best examples of how well written that season was. continued →
