My new guilty pleasure. The whole cast is fun. Love Sue Lynch and Matthew Morrison as the teachers.

Has this multi episode aired yet? Has anyone watched it? It's on A&E I think. Just found this: http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/news/5-things-we-learned-from-leah-reminis-scientology-tv-show-w452906

Just found Sherlock on Netflix with Benedict Cumberbatch. I remember a fellow chatter said they liked it. I love it! I've been a fan of Sherlock Holmes since I was a young girl and this version is really fun to watch.

I like him too! Always did. Seems like a classy guy on screen and off.

I've lost family from 3 generations this year. My precious great-niece, born with 2 sets of chromosomes, survived for one week. My cousin Brett, such a sweet and gentle person, struck by cancer and gone too soon and just this week my aunt died. Then there is the circle of life... New niece will be born in June. Cousin Karen beat breast cancer and we all have been reminded to cherish the ones we love, every single day.

read the whole article. Finally recognized her towards the end. I love classic gossip, hollywood or elsewhere. Thanks for posting Hoya!!

According to TMZ, the hospital is not releasing Kanye today as they reported earlier. I believe this is very serious. I also believe that many people in the industry, his wife included, were keen to his mental instability long before this (and used it to their benefit?)

Very sorry to hear about Ron Glass passing away. He was so funny on Barney Miller. I loved the fashion sense and intellectual snobbishness his role called for.

So we're all a bunch of pot head winos? God, I love this group. I am definetly not happy about Pence. Trump is going to be impeached, but Pence is downright scary, especially for women and children. (didn't he approve a bill in Indiana that says you can physically punish your children?) I am more afraid of Pence rising to the highest office of President than Trump's mishandling of our country. We'll survive Trump. Pence? I'm not so sure.

So back in the day, when I was about 17, I read the book "Shanna" by Kathleen E. Woodiwiss. I thought it was the perfect female name, as it could be both professional and romantic, so that's what I named our first born daughter. (I let Mr. Topaz name our 2nd daughter to be fair.) Every person we've met who shares the Shanna name all have the same story, "it came from the book." Fast forward 30+ years and we just met another Shanna From the Book two weeks ago. I still love the name.

I am not a fan of Kanye (except for Goldigger) and now I'm all out pissed that Jay Z is trying to buy my beloved Prince's music catalog. I'm sure you all know more about Beyonce than I do, but I just don't understand the hype. Is she that good? Does she have real musical talent or does shaking & showing her bootatas (booty and tatas) the real draw?

Hi Everyone, I just started my very own business called Main Street Etching Company. I etch/engrave glassware, awards, wine & spirit bottles and just about anything else you can think of. I bought a huge 60 gallon air compressor and a sandblasting cabinet that is out in my garage. I've sold several things and hope to become successful enough to quit my day job. I'm still working on my website but I will put a link here when it's done.

Here is the link to my website. I've scaled back a bit and now concentrate on bottle engraving only. mainstreet-etch.com Still working full time and doing this on the side. Not looking forward to winter again because my equipment is in the garage and I live in Minneapolis. Kiki

I really try not to follow the K Klan but I knew something was going to happen soon. Karma came a knockin', pistol cockin' gems were taken, Kim badly shaken. Karma's a bitch when you flaunt the rich, but you're the one who created this sitch. Now, I'm going to challenge you, Mrs. West. Take that insurance money and go help the world's starving and suffering children. Give your children a better example than your mother gave you. ​

The spin has already begun. I've seen several news snippets mentioning Brad and Marion Cottilard. http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/angelina-jolie-brad-pitt-split-did-marion-cotillard-play-a-role-w441002

I truly miss Ted. He appears to be happy and successful with his art gallery in Palm Springs. He's always been such a naughty little boy. Have you seen the artwork he features? I wonder if he's found a true love yet? I wish him nothing but the best. I'm forever grateful for all of the entertaining, thought-provoking blind items he provided. He will always be gossip royalty to us old-timers. Ted/Bruce, if you're out there, throw us a bone and say hello (and I said bone, not boner. I'm still a naughty little girl too).

I've heard it was done very well and the critics actually like it. I haven't seen it. I'm still upset that no one listened to me about the gloves. I was eleven years old when I borrowed my stepmother's leather gloves one day. I made just one snowball after school and threw it at my friend. The gloves had gotten a bit wet but when they dried, they had shrunk and that's how I got busted by the stepmother for wearing her gloves. If they would have introduced this information about how leather shrinks when wet, the spectacle of OJ trying them on would have been a moot point or could have led the way to his conviction.

I was home sick last week with the flu and I checked Netflix for something to watch that didn't require much brain power. I almost started Desperate Housewives but I couldn't remember where/when I had left off. Then I noticed this show, Revenge. I started it up and the next thing I knew, I had watched six episodes in a row. The next day I watched eight.

My daughter tells me "Mom, you should start watching this. It's my new favorite show" but I kept putting it off. Well, I finally started the first episode and BAM I was hooked. It's on Netflix and now I have to wait for season 2. The only downside for me was that I didn't care for the girl who plays Alex. She's from "that 70's Show" and I'm not impressed with her acting.

I just watched Women of Soul at the White house on PBS last night. Aretha made me cry when she sang Amazing Grace. It wasn't her version or because I'm religious (I'm not) but because I grew up listening to her, loving her and knowing that someday that voice would be silenced. She was THE female voice of my generation. What I would give to have a voice like that. You can develop talent but her voice is a pure gift. I love her because it always seemed to me that she didn't take any shit from anyone. Diva? Hell yes. She's earned the right and title.

"unconscious coupling" is where Chris Martin had to be on occasion while hooking up with his wife (to keep from dying of hypothermia). Thank you Goddess Karma for sticking it to the pretentious snob named Gwyneth.

I would take him for a ride to any crime-ridden area, take his cell phone, and leave him there to figure out how thug he really is without his bodyguards and lawyers protecting his ass.

I agree Hoyaheel. Bruce Willis just has that certain "thing" that cause women's hearts to flutter. I think it's flirty charm. He's charming and looks you right in the eye but you know he's thinking naughty things about you. Weren't millions of us taken with him when he first appeared in Moonlighting with Cybill Shepherd? The sexual tension on that show was the craziest. I also think Bruce is the one responsible for changing people's minds about bald men. He's too sexy for his hair. And...watch Die Hard for crying out loud! The first one is the best and the one with Samuel Jackson is my favorite.

1st caption: What are you doing?!? You're going to blow our cover! I told you I would be over right after the show. 2nd caption: Of course there's nothing going on, Keith, it ended years ago...You believe me, right??

Now wtf is going on??? 1. Jake is giving Katie acting lessons cuz she needs them. Badly. 2. Jake is a smokescreen for Katie's married lover. 3. Jake & Katie need a severe boost in popularity...hence the instant tabloid fodder. 4. Jake needs a playdate for Toothy Jr. (hoping Suri will share her toys but she doesn't look like the sharing type) 5. Jake is trying to convince Katie to finance his sister's next indie flick. (Katie must have bucks after TC. Lots of them. Lots.) 6. Katie is a smokescreen for Jake and Tom? (ewwww, sorry I went there. Jake is too good for GMD)
