Chiaki Kuriyama as “GoGo Yubari”

Posted on 29/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

Betty está muerta

Posted on 28/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

Apparently ABC has announced that the fourth season of Ugly Betty will also be its final season. To be honest, I’m not too sad about that, as I mentioned in my unsolicited “review of the year” post, it had started … Continue reading →

The Promotion of Peaches

Posted on 26/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

Today St. Trinian’s was released on DVD in the US, following last year’s limited theatrical run. This should not be taken as an endorsement, or an advertisement, because in truth I think the film’s Metacritic score of 39% was well … Continue reading →

Posted on 24/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

Unsurprisingly, I’m talking about Sarah Silverman‘s Jesus is Magic. To clarify, my first copy was the R1 version an American friend sent me as a gift, and the second copy was an R2 version I saw looking all sad and … Continue reading →

Lady Sovereign

Posted on 20/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

I’ll admit, I was a latecomer to the S-O-V party… up until I heard the Ordinary Boys remix of “9 to 5” in St. Trinian’s, she was nothing but a cute face on the magazine covers to me. But that … Continue reading →

CBB/S-O-V (final)

Posted on 20/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

Before she entered the Celebrity Big Brother house, Davina mentioned in her intro how much Lady Sovereign  hates being called a “Chav”… so naturally a few smart-arses in the crowd started chanting the word, but they were quickly drowned out … Continue reading →

The Merry Pole

Posted on 14/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

Ah, I do love sites like Daylife.com, which conveniently save geeks like myself all the time and trouble of tracking down celeb news and reviews by doing the (virtual) leg-work for us. Today a random whim led me to reviews … Continue reading →

Thanks to the sales, I was finally able to acquire the collected boxset of Moving Wallpaper and Echo Beach for a fiver! The concept is a very intriguing and innovative one… first you watch a sitcom about a bunch of … Continue reading →

Mindy Kaling as “Kelly Kapoor”

Posted on 03/01/2010 by Dee CrowSeer

Hurrah for the sales! Before Xmas I was able to pick up the first three seasons of The Office (US) for a tenner at Asda… that works out at roughly a pound per disc! Madness! The trade-off is that they’re … Continue reading →
