Fug the Fromage: Grease Live on FOX
A note, before we begin: You surely heard that Vanessa Hudgens' father died of cancer the night before the show. Which means during the most intense eight weeks of her professional life -- rehearsals for this sucker -- she was also enduring the most intense eight weeks of her personal life.

(This just in: NBC is re-airing this on the 19th, if you missed it last night, so set your DVR if you want to see it!) So much to cover from last night's live performance of The Wiz! Let's dive right in. I obviously just

View the gallery First of all, there is an academic paper just waiting to be written about how Lifetime has made a cottage industry out of making TV movies about TV shows. It's like Inception of guilty pleasure TV. And this HAS to be the final time they

View the gallery Dollars to donuts this "unauthorized" movie was done with input from Tori Spelling. She comes off in this like a very pleasant genius who was the engine behind this show existing and having the cast that it did, and also, this aired in conjunction with

I haven't read any reviews of A Deadly Adoption, the supposed parody of Lifetime movies starring Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig, and yet I know I'm not the first person to note this: What was the point, exactly? It's an honest question. There'

With the popularization of the term "hate-watch" has come a misconception that if you watch something, and don't like it, you therefore are a hate-watching hater who hates. That is reductive; most of the time, people are just watching, period, and came away with

There's not much point in recapping the plot of The Sound of Music, but we can DEFINITELY take a gander at the NBC costumes, which ended in some divinely cracked-out headgear that had Jessica and I dropping more unsavory language over Instant Messenger than we have in

A note before I begin: It's a shark movie, so yeah, some of these shots do have blood in them, but I chose mild ones -- nothing I think is overtly disgusting or that isn't also being painfully, comically fake; also, the budget was so low that

The other night, working late, I flipped on HBO and stumbled into this: Yes, it's Mannequin, a movie whose main titles flagrantly rip off the animated opuses of Savage Steve Holland, and which I watched so much on VHS as a kid that I think I broke the

View the gallery Let's not kid ourselves: Matt Damon is great and Michael Douglas is a marvel, but the breakout star of this movie is Rob Lowe's FACE OF INSANITY. It is everything it's been advertised to be, and more. It's kind

View the gallery As we've seen with her photo-heavy Tumblr, Beyonce is really gifted at making you think she's peeling back the curtain to offer raw, real peeks, to the point where you ignore or forget the fact that you're STILL actually only

First of all, if you are actually interested in Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton -- or even if you are just interested in Old Hollywood, rich boozehounds who make impulsive decisions, or epic romances -- I strongly suggest you read Furious Love, the book about their relationship that came out a couple

As soon as the ads for this movie started running, I was like, "Gwynnie as a boozing country star desperate for a comeback? FROMAGE." And Country Strong, though not nearly as fun-bad as I wanted it to be, totally should have been on Lifetime. I can'

You will be relieved to hear that, per Lifetime, this movie was "INSPIRED BY TRUE EVENTS." And isn't this a sensible, terribly truth-y title card? Truthy, like someone woke up at the production office one morning very close to air-date and screamed, "OH
