Melissa McCarthy received her second Oscar nomination this morning, the first for Best Actress, and I think we can all agree she is happy about it. Look at her reaction in this video if you don’t believe me.
She probably has a better chance of winning the Razzie for Happytime Murders than an Academy Award for Can You Forgive Me, but for today it is all about the nomination. She can focus on all of that other stuff next month. For now, it is just a Happytime!
Talking about Happytime Murders, I love that movie! If you need a good laugh, then you should watch that film. If you need a good cry, then watch what movie no one has seen that will win the Oscar.
The Conners might be a comedy but get prepared to cry and laugh tonight at 8p on ABC.
Last week, Darlene’s (Sara Gilbert) boyfriend (Jay R. Ferguson) asked her to move to Chicago with him and this week she has to tell her family about her decision. How will they feel about her moving an hour away with the kids? Who will take care of the chickens?
While she is dealing with that Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) has her own problems. Her boyfriend (Matthew Broderick) has been cheating on her. How will she handle it? She will do a very Jackie thing! And the best news is Broderick will not be around for season 2 (hey it is in the promo so no spoiler) if there is one!!! His character is the absolute worse, so I am glad he is gone.
Now, what about Becky? She is getting closer with her baby daddy. How close?
Who is that mystery guest? I cannot tell you and I cannot tell you if it plays into Darlene staying or going, but I think you know what is going to happen. Or do you?
Did I mention the episode ends with a cliffhanger? What do you think will happen?
While The Conners is not as good as Roseanne in its heyday, it was better than Roseanne was last year. Therefore, I would say it is comparable to the season before she won the lottery. Thus, it will be interesting to see if it gets another season. I am OK with whatever ABC decides. It is watchable, but not a show I will miss if it is gone like Speechless and Fresh Off the Boat. Hint hint!
Halle Berry is 52, but she looks exactly like she did when she was 25. What is her secret? Today, she showed us. It is facial masks. How come when I use them, I age forward and she ages backward. So not fair.
That and how come she is just as stunning with a face mask on as without it? I look like a creature from B horror movie with one and she looks the beautiful woman who makes to it to the credits.
Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda sat down for Wired and answered the Web’s Most Searched Questions. We did not learn anything new about them, just that they are so good at playing off of each other. I love Grace & Frankie and I know it has another season after this upcoming one. But I wish Netflix would give them a show where they just answer our questions. I would binge that over and over again.
Whenever I see JoJo Siwa still wearing her hair in a high ponytail with a huge bow at 15, I think she needs to give it up already. It was cute when she was a kid, but she is in high school now. It is more sad than cute.
Then yesterday when she was on The Tonight Show yesterday, she told him that she has sold over 45 million of them this year alone. As soon as I heard that, my bow was off to her. That is beyond crazy.
She had my respect until she explained their purpose. She says if you wear one, then you are a member of the Siwanator. That means you are “strong, confident, powerful. You believe in yourself. You believe in everyone. You love everyone. You support everyone.” Then she added, “Say you are at school and you do not have anyone to sit with at lunch. And you see a kid wearing a Jojo bow, you know you can sit with them because they are Siwanator.” Teens, is that true these days? I don’t remember having friends because we bonded over wearing the same thing? It is a nice theory, but I just don’t believe that. Do you?
When it comes to Jojo, was she this annoying when she was on Dance Moms? I get it, she is 15 and she is full of energy, but I am exhausted after watching that.
