Reality TV Time: Why Live PD is the Wreck I Can’t Help But Watch
Don’t mind me. I’m not even here. I mean, I’m here, but I’m not supposed to be. I’ve got a couple of major projects gobbling up my time, a bunch of looming deadlines, and I’m waiting to jump on the phone with a potential new client, but I had to just stop by and ask…

Eight Reasons We Need a Real Housewives of the Olympic Village
The Olympics are on and they are totally messing with my Bravo viewing. I’m not a fan of the Olympics and not just because of the TV viewing disruption. I just think in this day and age, when there are so many other platforms and international competitions and accompanying viewing options for all of your…

5 British TV Shows to Replace Downton Abbey
A sad(ish) thing happened to Anglophiles and history nerds a couple of weeks ago: Downton Abbey ended after six seasons. I watched a couple of seasons of Downton Abbey, but I was not a consistent watcher, although I do thoroughly appreciate the way they would just hurtle forward in time to avoid expensive production moments.…

The Unlikely Entrepreneur of Reality TV: Big Giant Swords
I’ve been neglecting someone on my little blog here. A group of people really, near and dear and close to my heart. My reality TV friends. Don’t worry. My non-husband-for-life XFE and I have been watching tons of crap on television. I mean, it’s winter, after all. And both “Vanderpump Rules” and “Real Housewives of…

Friday Links: Snow Art and Snatched Crowns Edition
Airline workers kill time by drawing a giant dick next to one of their planes. This actually sums up perfectly how I feel about winter. Plus it reminds me of the infamous “Below Deck” episode where the chief steward made blanket art in the shape of a penis but insisted it was a misinterpreted rocket…

Thanks, eHow
My man-panion-for-life and I were joking around the other day that we should get some of those temporary tattoos for the holidays — but like snarky custom ones. And, being the Vanderpump Rules fans that we are, we knew exactly what we wanted to get. That’s right, we’d like to show up at the parent’s…

Poe Cooks Reality: Eggplant Parmigiana from Food Network’s “Best Thing…”
While it’s generally well known that I have a very handsome in-house personal-chef-for-life, I too, can combine raw ingredients into something passably edible. Or, at least not poisonous. (I just scoured this website for a picture of me cooking and found nothing. NOTHING. I was sure there was a picture of me stirring a pot…

Don’t Know How to Convey Your Annoyance Via Text? Go With a PoEmoji
FAKT: I have never used an emoji. I actually don’t even know how to. Are they on my phone somewhere? I am old and decrepit and have no idea. Maybe they’re housed on my Life Alert. I recently read that some new emojis are being considered and it got me thinking about which ones I…

The Lashes May Be Mink, But the Faux Fur Drama Was Flying on Vanderpump Rules
There was some sort of really big thing going down here in Washington D.C. last night. Actually, it was a national event, full of backstabbing and upsets. It included a cast of familiar, soul-less characters who act like friends one minute, only to turn around and do something shady the next. There was even a…

Reality TV Time: Euros of Hollywood
During the last year that this blog has been dormant (almost one year to the day!), I’ve been on some fabulous trips that I have just been dying to talk/write about. I can’t tell you, gentle reader, how many times I’ve been witness to something and thought: Man, this would be great for the blog.…
