A “Grey’s” Glimpse at the Afterlife
By
Donna Freitas
It’s official: Meredith Grey didn’t die last night in “Some Kind of Miracle,” one of “Grey’s Anatomy’s” most intense episodes yet. I know, I know. She is one of the main characters. She couldn’t really die. But I really did start to wonder if she might. Though Meredith came back to the living after her…
My Oscar Predictions
By
Kris Rasmussen
Feeling a little puffed up over my successful predictions of the winners of last year’s Oscars, I am going to set myself up for possible ridicule again by putting myself on the line once more here at Idol Chatter, and share my thoughts and predictions for Sunday night’s Oscars. With no overwhelming favorite coming out…
Britney Back in Rehab: Part Three
By
Ellen Leventry
CNN reported yesterday that Kevin Federline, nee Mr. Britney Spears, planned on attending an emergency hearing today after learning that his former wife had left rehab for a second time after a brief 24 hour period, following months of bizarre behavior. While it is not known what issues were to be discussed, suspicions were that…
Others Take Up Britney’s Cross
By
Paul O'Donnell
Business is booming at Body and Soul, the tattoo parlor where Britney Spears stopped on her much-reported breakdown last weekend, according to celeb tracker andPOP. Tattoo artist Max Scott says he expects many of the new bookings will be asking for the cross the shop put on Britney’s hip. That Britney’s lost weekend would result…
“The Witches Next Door” are a Happy Family
By
Donna Freitas
TLC premiered a new reality series this week, “My Unique Family: The Witches Next Door,” presumably because the very premise must sound weird (or even blasphemous!) to most viewers. “What?” you’re meant to wonder with confusion. “Witches? A family of them?” Meet the Rev. Kendra Vaughan Hovey, High Priestess of the First Wiccan Church of…
Tom Arnold: Evangelical Preacher!
By
Douglas Howe
“Law & Order: Criminal Intent” is not a regular show for me, but when Michael Kress, our Idol Chatter editor, told me about the “Brother’s Keeper” episode last night, I was inclined to watch, even though the “televangelist has secret life and people close to him get hurt but his handlers look the other way…
Shatner and Shore: The “Good” Lawyers?
By
Douglas Howe
Just when I thought “Boston Legal” was going to forever fade into the kind of redundancy that was starting to plague this entire season, it took a nice break from some of the whimsical hijinks and sexual politics that have hurt the show this season and returned to the kind of compelling moral dilemmas that…
Oh, My Stars and Crosses! Britney’s Long, Strange Faith(s) Journey
By
hrossi
Britney Spears’ much-balleyhooed head-shaving meltdown over the weekend had (at least) one religiously confusing aspect to it. While she was getting a white-and-pink cross tattooed on her lower hip, the former teen idol sported a large Star of David necklace that at one point was on backwards so it hung down her back–facing the many…
“Breach”: An Opus Dei Catholic Falls from Grace
By
Donna Freitas
In “Breach,” director Billy Ray of “Shattered Glass” tells yet another gripping story of one man’s utter duplicitousness. This time around, however, the man in question, Robert Hanssen–played brilliantly by Chris Cooper–succeeds in bringing down not only himself, but the whole FBI with him. Dozens of FBI agents and assets are compromised, and the entire…
Do It For Us One More Time
By
Paul O'Donnell
The press this week about Britney Spears has centered on a single puzzle–what’s going through that newly bald head? For a while, Britney’s life has been “The Truman Show” meets “Real World.” In the past week, reports from the disaster-in-progess have come so frequently we seem to be watching in real-time. The few remaining gaps…
