30 Rock this week. Aaron Sorkin and Tina Fey (Liz Lemon) sit at a conference table waiting for interview with Nick Lachey to work on the NBC reality competition show The Sing Off. Sorkin: You here for the Sing Off gig? Fey: Yeah, do I know you? Sorkin: You know my work. Walk with me. […]
Sunday’s Golden Globes contained no small number of witty shots at any and all celebrities in attendance, some great speeches and some deserving winners (the most obvious of the bunch: Aaron Sorkin, Paul Giamatti and Christian Bale, are among my favourites) but perhaps my favourite moment was provided by Chris Colfer. Glee’s greatest asset, Colfer’s […]
*Dennis and Mac are at the hardware store, buying supplies for their new boat* Dennis: We’ve gotta pop by the department store, pick up a mattress. I wanna get a nice one too. Mac: The what? The mattress? What do we need a mattress for? Dennis: What do you mean, what do we need a […]
There aren’t that many things that are remarkable about ABC Family (except, perhaps, it’s strangely high ratings). However, every time I speak with one of its stars I find that they have some remarkable things to say: wisdom beyond their characters, if you will.

It may have been a thoroughly mediocre episode but Accidentally on Purpose returned last night and had at least one smile-worthy moment: Zack: My instincts about people are way better than yours. Billie: Why do you say that? Zack:Well, you picked me but I picked you. In other Wednesday night comedy news, Ugly Betty is […]
“instigator” – from Jordan (this is a stunning word to come from the vocabulary of someone who can’t tell time) “wench”- Kevin to Natalie (because it is an AMAZING old-timey word and Natalie IS a wench, in all it’s negative connotations)
“I just want to make her a better person, that’s all” -Jeff, after attempting to play down the condescending way he speaks to Jordan (ironically the best person in the house, not the smartest or most interesting, but probably the “best”)
“I’m not a ho puppet” – Jordan (in response to crazy Lydia’s drunken slander)
Brendan: Terminator, Battlestar Gallactica, Terminator 2… history teaches us that man always wins out in the end. Kenny: You know that’s not history right? Brendan: Only history that matters!
In honour of this week’s fabulous installment of Ugly Betty here are my favourite quotes from the episode. MARC: “Mandy! You’re going to be a reality TV star! It’s what every pretty girl with no specific talent dreams of” “Marc and Amanda, we’re so funny together, everyone says so” “If it isn’t Miss Fancy Pants […]
