    Ok, I didn't watch last night and I don't know when that pic up there is from, but Jesus Christ. Why didn't I appreciate this woman when I was like 15? Has she actually gotten more attractive now that she's 48 or whatever?

    MP needs to find some interesting characters immediately. We already know Augie and Lipsyncha are going, but the blond guy and the doctor/whore are boresville as well. The "normal" couple are boring, but they are supposed to be, so they should stay. The only interesting character, at least from a nighttime soap perspective, is the lesbian "bitch." A character like Christian Siriano would be a great addition. Someone with a mysterious quasi-military role would be interesting. Likewise, a Persian JAP. And make it more like David Lynch's Mullholland Drive.

    @jimstoic: Is she actually a lesbian? Might have missed something, but I just figured from last night's girl/girl snog that she's just someone who knows which cards to play and when.

    @terrible: I'm pretty sure she's supposed to be bi; she obviously enjoys the males, as evidenced by her love for the boring man, but they also had her hooking up with a girl at a party in one of the earliest episodes.

    So, which is it? Heather Locklear increases Melrose ratings by 15% last night and it's a dismal failure. Jay Leno is up 5% and Wow!

    As I recall, she is credited with saving the show the first time round when ratings were low. I highly doubt she did it overnight - after but one appearance.

    @shle896: I guess it depends on the numbers you're starting out with, but fifteen percent seems like a decent percentage to me. Give Amanda a little more credit!

    @matukonyc: He answers to that in the blog post. As someone who doesn't know much about AA, I found the post to be really informative. For example, I didn't realize you don't have to be religious to be a member of AA. Cut the guy some slack. It's a choice.

    @matukonyc: It's anonymous in that you are not supposed to reveal the identities of others. But you can and in fact are encouraged to share your personal experience in AA with others in order to possibly help someone else get help.

    I'm glad that California has discussed the revenue advantages of legalization and I think the "Rainbow Collective" has come up with a fine promotion.

    It's nice that the dispensary found a magazine willing to distribute their coupons, but as a pro-reform person who's willing to at least settle for medical marijuana, I kind of have to worry about the way these things might reflect upon the movement as a whole.

    Says some future politician in BFE: "Californians can get free dope like it's fries from McDonalds."

    I'm kind of looking forward to the episode in which O'Reilly's little producer friend stalks him and sticks a mic into his cancer-silenced mug.

    That mouse quote is actually a ripoff of a quote Jimmy Cayne used to rip Tim Geithner in House of Cards. Only in Jimmy's telling it was a flea. Maybe it's an old-people proverb.

    Does anyone else think that Ebert losing the ability to speak has freed his mind in some fashion? Or maybe, like Daredevil, losing one ability has led to improvement in other abilities such as writing?
