Top 10 Guilty Pleasures

In: Movies, Music, Television, books

Was thinking about this earlier today - here are my top 10 guilty pleasures. Share a couple of yours.

The Philadelphia Phillies - The worst franchise in pro-sports history. Will more than likely lose their 10,000 game of their history next year. But I can’t stop watching (and hoping I get another World Series - [...]

Originality smells

In: Movies, Television

The following is from a great article on Salon reviewing Miami Vice
A few years back, a screenwriter friend of mine was pitching one of her original screenplays to an agent. The agent loved the script, but informed my friend there was no way she could sell it — “There’s no pre-awareness,” she said. When my [...]

Half as much Tina Fey

In: Television, tina fey

Update: An open letter to Tina
Mmmm - I love me some Tina Fey. So I shed a tear as I found out this morning that Tina Fey will be leaving Saturday Night Live this year for her new show 30 Rock.
I was looking forward to

More than 10 minutes of Tina every week

A couple of random thoughts

In: Music, Television

What purpose do mosquitoes serve other than to annoy and spread disease?
Close to finishing up season 4 of Angel and have to say it will be joining my favorite show list. I can’t believe I didn’t watch this series after season 2. (Don’t spoil the end for me - just 4 shows away).
Anyone [...]

All time favorite TV shows

In: Television

Talking about this this morning; your all-time top television shows. Here are mine.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - It’s annoying that so many people are too closed minded to have given this show a chance. Yes I know - vampires, but nothing was ever as well written and funny as this show.
24 - An [...]

Those damn hippies!

In: Television, The Amazing Race

The end of Amazing Race 9 wasn’t as tense as the Amazing Race 7 end but it was still entertaining. My prediction of the frat boys was off but the hippies deserved to win - I love the brain teasing end rewarding brains over brawn.
I would love CBS to do an Amazing Race reunion [...]

The season finales are dwindling to a few including tomorrow night’s Amazing Race two hour end. I have to say if any of the three win, I’ll be fine with it. This year’s big bad MoJo was vanquished last week. No more crying (”this is the hardest thing I’ve ever done”). No more bitching (yields [...]

You can take the Chloe out of 24…

In: 24, Television

That familiar scowl.
Replace that guitar with a taser.
Could it be?
It could only be - yes it is - Mary Lynn Rajskub from 24 was slumming it up on Gilmore Girls last night. (I didn’t actually watch so I can’t tell you what she did other than sing and strum a guitar).
Maybe Kristen might?

About this blog

Ostensibly A Rubber Door is about anything that's on my mind. Mostly that seems to be about politics, music, sports, and arguing with others about all of the above. I took the name of this blog from a Michael Penn song called Me Around. Check out Michael - he's about the best singer/songwriter there is.
