Lucy, Daughter of the Devil





If you are not watching this I have one question to ask you...what the fuck is wrong with you!? This show is the awesomest fifteen minutes of every day of my life. At least every Tuesday through Friday at 12:15am on Adult Swim. Tivo this shit, NOW! It was created by Loren Bouchard, the creator of Home Movies and much of the Home Movies voices are in this one as well. As if the dynamic between Lucy, the devil and Lucy's boyfriend, DJ Jesus, isn't hilarious enough there's also two priests and a nun (the special sister who was teased as a child for being "hairy mary" and grew up to be an assassin for the Vatican) who are on the hunt to find and destroy the antichrist. What I'm trying to say is that it's awesome. So awesome that if you don't start to watch it today I might just come to your house, bake you cookies, and duct tape you to a chair in front of the tv while I force feed them to you. I don't know what the cookies really have to do with anything other than I really like to bake. My favorite episode is probably "Satan's School for Girls" with the rocking theme song, "Pound My Tom Tom." Any show that fills fifteen minutes with a song saying "you can pound my tom tom" and that shows the devil in a banana hammock is okay by me.

Adventure in Avant-Garde

Creatives Christian and Chris of "Team Fierce" stun with gorgeous, romantic circles of organza; Jillian and Victorya feel out their mohawk-ed model in crisp rebellion; draper extraordinaire, Rami, makes Sweet P cry; and Team Kit-Ricky try to spring prairie patchwork pastels on the runway. Next week, the Port Authority takes center stage.

Clash of the Divas

Wunderkid Christian meets his match in opinionated high school student, Maddie, four years his senior. Bedazzling makes a comeback, along with Sweet P and her best design yet. Chris wows (once again, watch out!), Ricky gets away with too much rusch, Rami is in the bottom (!) and a red halter dress proves too flimsy. The prom pics and stories shared are fabulous!
Next week looks to be a group challenge, and most likely Ricky's last efforts.

Sweetest Spit

Elisa, enchanted spirit and conduit of soul, you will be missed!

Episode highlights: Rami rocks (and wins) with Peppermint Patty, Chris stuns everyone with clean inspiration from Warhol, Jillian goes edible, Zac Posen guest judges and Sweet P is saved only by the good luck of Hershey's kisses.

we miss you, writers!

As the writers strike continues, reality television sucks so much more.

I've completely given up on AMERICA'S TOP MODEL. After the loss of Heather, who's worth caring about? Nobody. Hence, my complete apathy regarding the final four. Oops! Final three- later for you, Bianca! *cough*youdeservetogohomebecauseyou'reanawfulhumanbeing!*cough* Aside from that, my ability to watch The Loathsome Twosome of Vile Jay Manuel and Tyra Banks has finally completely disappeared. Ugh.

PROJECT RUNWAY is back and, while not exactly better than ever, certainly still interesting. Elisa, the kooky spit-mark chick, never fails to fascinate- and as long as Rami and his arms are around, I will be glued to the screen.

So far, though, I haven't got a clear favorite. Although, as always, there are a few designers that I truly can't stand. Not to mention Heidi Klum's fellow judges.

HEROES, meanwhile, had a mini-season finale that tied up some of the spotty storylines of this so-so Second Volume, but managed to end with a bang (literally. 3 of them), which made me perk up a little with renewed hope that Volume Three might find the show back on track.

...if Volume Three ever gets to happen.
Oh, how I miss thee, tv writers! Here's hoping the strike ends soon!

At the very least, I need my weekly Lee Pace fix with PUSHING DAISIES! (which wasn't on this week, but will be back next Wednesday)

Scranton's Survivor: M. Scott


Michael bravely roughs Pennsylvania's wilderness for an afternoon with duct tape, a knife, and documentary tool, while Jim determines the fate of birthday celebrations at the office. Creed skips for peach cobbler.
