I have the feeling that Supporting Actress will include someone from left field. I'm thinking Jennifer Garner (Juno) or Olympia Dukakis (Away from Her) could creep in. Best Actor also seems ripe for a head-turner (Mortenson, Hirsch, Gosling, and Depp all seem vulnerable to me). I think I'd be less ...

I would've been happy without Penn here, but considering how ga ga directors get over actors who show competence behind the camera, it was to be expected. I also would have preferred Burton over Gilroy, but this is an otherwise intriguing lineup. I'm starting to think I might actually like a PTA fi...

I thought the Grey Gardens song was kind of underwhelming. I hope that's not indicative of the show as a whole. I know Damien is a huge fan, so I trust that there's something more to it. I'll give a more thorough rundown once I watch the full show on DVD later. I've been flipping channels off and o...

As for Sanjaya, I gather that his success so far is a combination of tween girls and some gay men who find him adorable, and those people who take pleasure in voting for the worst contestants. He shouldn't make it past this week, but hey you never know. I really think Sanjaya is safe and heading to...
