Nice Girls Talk

I arrived home from this year’s Comic Con on Sunday night, exhausted from 5 incredible days of programs (and a case of “concrud” – otherwise known as a head cold from the constant back-and-forth between the air conditioning of the buildings and the heat of San Diego), sharing fun experiences with friends and working my butt off taking notes for …

I’m on a plane right now as another Comic Con has come and gone. I’m tired, sore, and haven’t eaten a real meal in days. Ask anyone who’s been to Comic Con and they’ll tell you that’s how you know you had a good time. We have a lot of interviews and show-specific articles coming your way over the next …

As everyone can see, I’ve had sort of a busy week for the site, but it’s been one where I can’t really get a handle on what to post this week before I leave for Comic Con. I originally wanted to post the random bits from going to see Ruby and the Rockits, but that got side-tracked when I had …

Bright and early tomorrow morning I (along with two good friends) will embark on a journey – dare I say a “trek” – to San Diego for the 2009 Comic Con. This is my annual ‘vacation’ every year; one that I look forward to with much anticipation and a little bit of dread too. My dread aside, this event always …

Emmy nominations were announced last week, and several Nice Girls faves got the nod (holla Simon Baker!) in the midst of the same ol’ same ol’. While I groused about the lack of Emmy love for True Blood (3 technical noms) and Chuck (stunt nom), I started to wonder if we’d see more new faces at the Emmys if they …

True Blood, Merlin, Lipstick Jungle, Sex and the City, Vampire Diaries. These are just a few of the recent television shows that were based on books, and have become popular shows we love(d) to watch. Often, we watch these shows and then we want to go read the books. Sometimes we are disappointed that the books are not exactly  like …

One of my favorite parts about most events around Los Angeles centers on the fact that the creative teams stick around to talk if you show interest in what they’re talking about. Panels are great, but personal conversations add something else to the experience all together. Monday night, I went with one friend to see today’s second season premiere of …

Emmy nominations will be announced very soon and if you follow the process you know that more times than not the actors or series that really deserve to be honored rarely make the cut. As is the norm with most TV critics, they make up their own lists of who they believe should be nominated. With that being said, here …

You know those ads for movies and TV shows that show quotes from critics? A couple of years ago I noticed that some of the, shall we say, less than critically acclaimed films coming out were using quotes from places like IMDb and blogs that aren’t known for hard-hitting critiques. Why bother using quotes at all if you have to …

This is the post you should have had last week, if not for my scrambled brain (the summer does horrible things to me.) Over a week and a half ago, one of my first Forum friends was in Los Angeles. One day, along with a surrogate Nice Girl J, we had lunch and started planning a trip down to San …
