Have you been introduced to this hilarious blog yet? No? Well then, head on over and check out Your Daily Lesbian Moment. It’s okay, I’ll wait …

Back? Good.

This hilarious and innovative blog has recently discussed Jenny Schecter in all her crazy glory. But rather than just rant or rave or condone or whatever else most writers do when it comes to this incomparable character, this site gives it to you with video. From an Our Chart interview with Mia Kirshner to a fan tribute, this site (and this post in particular) has it all!

Hopefully there’ll be more commentary on more of the characters on The L Word, because I love reading this blog!

Latest Showtime Promo

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Yes, this is a commercial. No, I don’t care. Watching things like this gets me all worked up for all the new shows coming up in the next few months … the L Word is most definitely just the beginning of a stellar year for this network!

Notes From Around The Net

Here’s a few tidbits I’ve found floating around the internet today! 

  • The Jennifer Beals Fan Blog has a great rant up about Bette and Tina vs. Bette and Jodi. I love the unique perspective on Jodi, and am starting to think I’m of the same mind!
  • United Press has an interview with Penn Gillette (of Bulls#*t) up, in which he discusses skepticism, education, and their links. Interesting read.
  • The Star talks to Julie Benz about her role as Rita in Dexter, the show moving to CBS, and much more. Great read!
  • In more Julie Benz news, she sat down with TV Guide to discuss not only Dexter, but her role in Stallone’s latest Rambo movie. I love what she has to say about Stallone!

And don’t forget about our comment contest, running here through Friday! Super easy to enter, and you could win some free ITune-age!

News Around The Web

season-5.jpg

Showtime programming has been all over the web these past few days, from talk of The L Word to Dexter’s moving to CBS in February. Here’s a smattering of what people had to say.

  • Lyndsey over at Lez Keep It Real had a lot to say about the newest season of The L Word, and while I might be biased because I love her blog, I found her comments super interesting (if not always in line with my opinions).
  • The Seattle Times interviewed Rose Rollins about her character Tasha, and the trial she must inevitably go through on the L Word. There’s a few spoilers in the article, though, so don’t click if you don’t want to know!
  • Microsoft has announced it will be partnering with Showtime (among other networks) to bring content to it’s XBox Live platform. I’ve actually seen this start to happen (we’ve got an XBox at home), and it’s pretty neat. You can watch episodes of your favorite shows through your game console!
  • I tend to filter out the boxing that happens on Showtime, but if you’re a fan, Bad Left Hook has a comparison of HBO’s boxing and Showtime’s, along with a list of some of the fights coming up.

That’s just a start list of all the traffic Showtime is creating for blogs (and newspapers) across the country (and world).

New JRM Blog Alert!

Saturday, January 5th, 2008

Just found a new blog out there, dedicated solely to the amazingness that is Jonathan Rhys Meyers, and I wanted to tip you all off. It’s brand new, but if the number of hot pictures and interesting factoids about the star already listed is any indication, this blog will definitely delight those who love this Irish man.

My Address

Kate Moennig helped to film a five-part series on homeless GLBTQ youth that was posted to Our Chart back in April, and somehow I missed hearing about it! Bad blogger, no cookie.

Anyhow, because it’s amazing and because I’m still caught up re-watching all of Season 4 of The L Word (which I got for Christmas, thankyouverymuch), here’s each of the five parts of the series.

Oh, My Lord, I’m Famous!!

Monday, November 12th, 2007

Okay, so I’m not really famous, but a super cool thing has happened and I feel the need to point it out (as well as clarify).

Every morning before work I check my e-mail. It’s a ritual. This morning I notice a comment ping, so I open it up, and it’s from my latest Brotherhood Review (and yes, I know I’m still like two eps behind). Who should be commenting, but Don Foley (aka Joey Richard)!!!!

donfoleynew-2.jpg

My first reaction? “Holy crap, people actually read this thing! I should start proofreading what I write!” And yes, Don, I totally thought you were a teenager during the furniture store thing, and you pulled it off well!

So now that we know famous people read the site, maybe I should start making a list of people I’d like to have comment, people I’d like to interview, and all that action. Starting with Mr. Don Foley. Rock star first Hollywood comment. I sort of feel like I should brush up on my interview skills (and by “brush up” I mean learn how) and see if I can score us an interview, but I wouldn’t even know how to start asking questions that weren’t, ” So, like, you actually read my blog?!?!”

Two New Wiki Pages Up And Running

Monday, September 24th, 2007

dexterseasonone.jpg

Wiki-mania has been sweeping Showtime lately, and with the success of the Weeds wiki page comes two new additions to the universe of Showtime Wikis.

Now, both Dexter and Californication have wiki sites where fans of the shows can go to fill out pages on characters, actor bios, episode summaries, and more!

Dexter’s wiki page has a bunch of season two predictions where you can weigh in on what you think will (and won’t) happen as he traverses life without his brother. There’s also episode guides, where you can add your favorite moments, quotes and so much more. I’m heading over to help add info on cast members’ bios, as a few of those need some lovin’ still. If you’ve got any great screen shots, candid moments, and more, post them up!

The Californication wiki, on the other hand, has some cool top ten lists, a “californication guide to los angeles” and more to add to the typical cast bios and episode guides. This wiki needs a lot more lovin’ as the show’s newer, so we all need to head on over and give it a ton of the attention it deserves!

And don’t forget about the Weeds wiki, which has filled in nicely thanks to faithful fans heading there to add their thoughts.
