What a long, strange trip it’s been. Quarterlife began its quarter-existence four years ago as “1/4life,” a pilot Marshal Heskovitz and Ed Zwick created for ABC. Herskovitz and Zwick were the creative team behind shows like Thirtysomething and My So-Called Life, but their new project failed to generate much buzz. So the two men came up with a bold, new approach: a series that would play exclusively on the internet, with its own MySpace social network and various other bells and whistles. The internet incarnation debuted with much hooplah, and then—well, didn’t generate much buzz. Total internet viewership for each episode was in the 150,000 range, an audience almost as minuscule as the readership of this blog. Then the writers’ strike came along. With most shows in reruns or on hiatus, NBC picked up Quarterlife and returned it to the schedule last night. Herskovitz sounded absolutely thrilled:

I would say this has to be the most exciting moment in my career in many, many years…. There’s just an electricity that everyone feels about what we’re doing. I feel like we’ve just broken out of some mold into a new universe here.

Of course, that was before he or anyone else had seen the ratings. Now it looks like the show will be cancelled after a single airing, the same fate the pilot met back in 2004. The website is still up, and you can watch the complete run of Quarterlife there. It’s not a bad series, really. But apparently it just can’t hold its own against Primetime: What Would You Do? and reruns of The King of Queens.

The folks over at Hollywood.tv posted this video of the paparazzi following Pamela Anderson’s ex Rick Salomon as he heads to his car after leaving Club Villa in WeHo.

This clip is f*cking hysterical! The paps throw outrageous questions at Rick, who sometimes comments and sometimes laughs them off. “Was it the drug use or the herpes?” yells one. “Did you try making another sex tape without the woman’s consent?” yells another.

One photographer gets his ass kicked by a tree that he runs into while filming Rick. You hear someone say, “He needs an ambulance.” But he is quickly forgotten and the pack moves on after one guy yells, “Rick Salomon for President!”

Entertainment at it’s best.

Spanish actor Javier Bardem is the face of a villain in No Country for Old Men. Which Anton Chigurh would you rather face in a darkened hotel corridor? That’s an easy one.

It’s no secret that Hollywood actresses (and actors) are spending ridiculous amounts of time and money on botox injections to make themselves look younger. Yet an effectively frozen face cannot convincingly emote on the big screen, which is why word on the street is that Botox is killing Hollywood:

Today, most actors in most movies have deliberately paralyzed faces, incapable of registering anything. An ocean of Botox and collagen has been jabbed into the most famous faces on Earth — leaving the audience feeling disconnected without knowing why.

If we zip backwards a few decades, it’s easy to draw a few comparisons of talent that might have been wasted if Botox had existed. Notwithstanding all her other vices, Marilyn Monroe’s “tiny, almost unreadable facial signals” would have been erased by Botox injections. Collagen injections probably would have done the same to Audrey Hepburn.

Naomi Watts has spoken out on her refusal of botox injections: “My face requires me to have expression. If it’s frozen, what right do I have to play that part?”

Naomi’s public stance is of particular note due to her close friendship with Nicole Kidman, who just happens to be Radar magazine’s Botox poster child of the millennium. Kidman has denied any plastic surgery or use of Botox, but since she announced her pregnancy, wrinkles have suddenly materialized on her previously smooth forehead.

Of course, this Botox-bind leaves actresses who are hitting the Hollywood-elderly of 40 in a cruel position. If they refuse to have the face done, they can’t get cast. But if they have the face done, they can’t act. They are trapped by our creepy desire to have any sign of aging banished from our sight lines, even on the cinema screen.

And in that regard, even Hollywood actors and actresses cannot escape what the lowly civilians long ago accepted — getting older sucks. Deal with it.

The Smashing Pumpkins - Superchrist

All I can say is, what the hell is going on here? The song is so chaotic and so is the video!

Sadly, I’m not impressed. I expected to be blown away.

Thanks Paul!

Remember Mayim Bialik, aka ‘Blossom’, from the early 90s television show of the same name? Yeah, I hated that show too.

See what Mayim looks like these days -after the cut. I’ll give you a hint. Frumpy, granola, tweezers…

There’s a moment in every high school talent show when a singer starts trainwrecking. You know its too late to turn back and they have to keep going. You feel bad, but in the end it’s too funny to turn away. Well, now we can enjoy that moment over and over thanks to the wonder of YouTube.

Seriously, I’m not kidding when I say, I knew American Idol contestant Robbie Carrico’s hair was fake last night! Now TMZ has confirmed it!

I have a feeling a lot of you females out there noticed it too, because we have all screwed around with wigs at one time or another, and unless a wig is high-end and/or real human hair, you can usually always tell a fake mop by it’s sheen..or lack of.  Besides, he should have a ton of split ends and shit, all rocker guys do.  But his are blunt and thick.  Dead giveaway!

Apparently American Idol producers are pissed that he won’t part with his cheap mane, and Robbie refuses to ever talk about it.

But now that this story has broke you can bet Robbie will either part with the wig or don a new haircut. I’m guessing he’ll do it next week since they try and ‘reinvent’ themselves every week.  Hopefully not though.  I want to see the wig get to the top 10!

Is Britney Spears really pregnant with Adnan Ghalib’s baby? That’s what he is telling everyone.

“Britney is Adnan’s dream come true. He knows that if he has a child with Brit, he’ll be made for life,” a friend of Adnan’s tells Star magazine.

I bet! He probably did her in every position, tipping and shaking the bitch after he came in her - hoping his seed would take hold. Heh.

Let’s just hope this dirty little rumor is false. If it is true, Adnan should be taken out and shot. Period.

22-year old actress Mischa Barton was formally charged yesterday for that DUI she got last December. People Magazine says

Mischa Barton has been charged with driving under the influence and possession of marijuana… [and] driving without a valid license. Her arraignment on the misdemeanor charges is set for Thursday in Beverly Hills Superior Court.

Let’s just hope this arrest won’t interfere with her busy career of hawking canvas tennis shoes and affordable teen fashion! It’d be a real shame if she couldn’t continue to collect a paycheck for having been “The O.C.’s” Marissa Cooper. And finding a generic half-decade-old-teen-drama¹ spokesmodel replacement would be damn near impossible. It’d be like looking for a needle in a haystack, or in the case of the Fox network, a turd in a septic tank.

¹_{Excluding the cast of “Beverly Hills, 90210,” “Party of Five,” “Buffy The Vampire Slayer,” etc., etc.}

The year was 1983. Nicole Kidman appeared in BMX Bandits, a film about two expert bikers who, along with some chick, find a box of walkie talkies and unwittingly get pulled into a bank robbery scheme. Damn, they certainly don’t make films like they used to.

Nicole was sixteen years old and rockin’ the frizzy hair and freckles. Of course, this was before Tom Cruise and her subsequent descent into elegance inaccessible austerity, but she could move her facial muscles. That’s nothing to scoff at.

It really got ugly when George Clooney ran into his best friend Brad Pitt’s ex-wife Jennifer Aniston outside Bar Nineteen12 at the Night Before gala in Beverly Hills on Saturday. And by “got ugly” I mean “she sprinted away huffily.” Take that, you silver-haired rake! OK! Magazine says

“George attempted to be friendly, but Jen wasn’t having it,” one eyewitness tells OK!. “After enduring a few minutes of the actor’s presence, Jen turned on her heels and made a beeline for the Sunset Ballroom.” Courtney, naturally joined Jen, leaving… husband David [Arquette] to make awkward small talk with George.

Nothing shows somebody who’s boss like running away from them. Like France in World War II or my birth father when I was four, it’s the only way to truly convey what a sniveling little coward you are. Wetting your pants and screaming for mommy is a distant second.

I applaud Kelly Clarkson.  She’s not one to doll herself up and waste time picking out the perfect outfit.  Why do that when you can spend more time at the All You Can Eat Chinese Buffet?  Why wear makeup when you can just roll out of bed, put on a stupid hat, and look like you spent last night throwing up?  She’s even got the perfect “Eh, I’m a chunky pale chick.  Wanna do it while I eat another bucket of chicken?” smile down.  You’re a pro Kelly.  A Pro.
