Wow, what a Drag!

Gossip Girl premiered yesterday and it was.... okay. I like wonderful, great, fantastic, but all I got was, meh and from the looks of critics and viewers, many were disappointed.

New York Daily News - Cristina Kinon 88/100
While it remains to be seen if Gossip Girl will take the plot plunge "The O.C." did after its first season, the beginning here is encouraging

Los Angeles Times - Mary McNamara 80/100
Gossip Girl is eye candy, and mind candy, as pretty as a perfectly prepared martini--one that some nasty, picture-perfect have-it-all may or may not have drugged.

The New York Times - Alessandra Stanley 70/100
It's a sleek, glossy, musically enhanced soap opera centered on wealthy, gorgeous high school students who connive and cavort to the sound of Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Peter Bjorn and John, Angels & Airwaves, and Timbaland.

Variety - Brian Lowry 60/100
Gossip Girl hardly breaks any new ground.

New York Magazine - John Leonard 30/100
I don’t care whether Serena (Blake Lively) and Blair (Leighton Meester) can ever be best friends again after what happened with Blair’s boyfriend before Serena ran off to boarding school is not just because I’m an old fart.

Chicago Tribune - Maureen Ryan 30/100
But it's not just that the Gossip Girl cast lacks chemistry. Among these characters and threaded through these predictable, thin stories, there's precious little of anything that approaches sweetness, kindness, altruism or heart.

Chicago Sun-Times - Doug Elfman 25/100
It's one of the worst new series--but for its cardboard acting and writing, not for the morals.

Harsh right? Gossip Girl started out as a phenomenal show, but the seasons after are treading towards cancellation. It would break my heart to such outcome, but it give me a chance for my OWN tv series to take their spot, just saying. XOXO

**UPDATE**
Not only was the premiere of Gossip Girl was a drag, but the ratings were terrible. Word from Perez says the show's ratings were down 36%. down from season 1 or season 2 (Give me a break readers I'm at school). Well, from the look of things, GG might be on it's way to extinction.

R.I.P to the Dirty Dancer, Patrick Swayze.

"Patrick Swayze, who seamlessly blended sensitivity and brawn in roles as diverse as a dance instructor in Dirty Dancing and a surfing bank robber in Point Break, has died after playing a role that demanded more of his courage and determination than any other: cancer patient.

The 57-year-old star of Ghost and The Outsiders, who was nominated three times for an acting Golden Globe, endured a nearly two-year battle with pancreatic cancer. Swayze's publicist said he died Monday with family at his side, according to the Associated Press.

Swayze will be missed.

Who else but me could've see this coming?

After Kanye's disrespect to beautiful and talented, country singer T-Swift and the VMA's in general, a party was present and there was a fight?!

The Most popular urban site Mediatakeout.com posted that Jay-Z and Beyonce got into a heated arguement and he left with Rihanna. SAY WHAT?! Here's the story.

"MediaTakeOut.com just got wind of some EXPLOSIVE NEWS!!!! Apparently Kanye's outburst during Taylor Swift's acceptance speech has caused more trouble than he could have imagined.

According to one of MediaTakeOut.com's entertainment industry insiders, it caused a HUGE BLOW UP between Jay Z and Beyonce.

The insider, who asked to remain anonymous, told MediaTakeOut.com that soon after Kanye's outburst - MTV network execs were furious. They asked Kanye to go out on stage and apologize - which he refused. Instead, our insider explained, Kanye chose to leave the event.

But here's where things get interesting. While all this was happening backstage, MediaTakeOut.com learned that Jay Z was right there with Kanye. According to our insider, 'Jay Z was upset with the way [MTV] treated Kanye ... so when he saw Beyonce do what she did with Taylor - he saw it as a very disloyal move.'

And that disloyalty wouldn't go without being punished. According to our insider, Jay LEFT THE EVENT without Beyonce. He reportedly called up Rihanna - who did not attend the Awards show - and attended at least 2 of the VMA afterparties with her instead."

DAMN Jay was it that serious to leave Beyowulf like that. I thought she did the right thing, I still don't like her ass, but Damn. MTO said they will keep everyone updated on the matter.

Oh No he Didn't?!

The VMA's was particularly precise this year. What do I mean about this, you ask? I don't even know, but what I do know is how rude Kanyeezy can be.
Yesterday, I was watching the VMA's on my cousin's 13 inch standard television (I know right) and Taylor Swift took the best female video award which I thought was totally bogus, I mean it had GaGa's name all over it. Well, Beyonce was in the same catagory and lost to Taylor Swift. What ever, it happened, right? Well, while Tayls was speaking Kanye got on stage, gentlely grabbed the mic and apologized for interrupting and blurted, well just take a look below.

MTV Shows

Kanye is such a little whiney bitch, rude, and can't simply shut his mouth, hm :-) he will go far! And a tip to T-Swift; you should have made a smart remark when his tired ass left off stage. Kanyeezy is still on of my favorite rappers, but he has to do better than this. He making Chicago black males look like douche, I know I am, but about the nice guys walking throughout the windy city... Oh, there is none.

**UPDATE*** Kanye apologized on Twitter. It's too late Kanyval, the damage is done you jerk. The chi still love you though.

Glee rocks! And Melrose flops! (Update: For the love of Glee)

Sorry S, but you made me do this. I want to like Melrose, so I'm going to give it another shot. But just as I felt that premiere was not good, the ratings were terrible.

Glee had over 7.2 million viewers, Wednesday on Fox, while Melrose Place and So You Think You Can Dance didn't do so well.

According to Examiner.com, Melrose Place was unsuccessful in ratings this past Tuesday night. The now-canceled show Privileged (Which I would prefer and think was awesome) even received 37% higher ratings with their debut in the same spot.

Now look, I want to get to know MP and maybe it will be good, but I hope people actually watch it. I don't like the camera scheme or what ever, it looks like All My Children & One Life to Live. My bffn S really likes this show and I hope I begin to like it too, but till then Glee rocked! Suck on that!

P.s. XOXO Gossip Girl
Monday Sept. 14 at 9/8c on TheCW
Heroes at 8/7 on NBC

For the Love of Glee!

Greetings our wonderful readers of 2morrow! I'm happy to announce that Glee is a awesome show. Now I have been very disappointed by two most talked about tv shows. 90210 n Melrose Place, were very dreadful. Well, 90210 made me gasp and smile? but it was sort of dry. Is it just me? or does the girl that plays Annie always get raped. In Degrassi, same thing, its kind of lame seeing the same thing happpening to the same person, exactly the same way-kind of lame. I don't remember Melrose, but I'll check the next ep to see if its any better.

What's more important? Is Glee. I didn't know what to expect, toats awseeness! The Pilot was by far great and the second ep slash series premiere was promising and delivered on most counts. Though it being a comedic musical, the drama is there (Way better than Degrassi). I for one love the joy Glee brings and hope it will be a good season. Glee was good, but Gossip Girl still can be on the top of my list.

Tomorrow The Vampire Diaries will premiere, sealed with blood will you watch?

****S's input: You're a bitch, just like Collie! I loved Melrose Place. it has the potential to go there, it probably won't, but still... Anyway maybe it's just to mature for you. Whatever, everyone else, I say give Melrose place a try, it was actually good. My next post will have the deats (details) !*****

Umm, I did it better !?

Season 2 of 90210 premiered tonight, and word on the street is that it was not quite as good as it could have been. I know this because I had a concept for the season premier that I was told was better. I'm not deluded. It probably wasn't(lol)but i makes me wonder what does it really ( I mean really, really)take to make it as a professional writer nowadays. I know, breaking through as a script writer is really hard and I have nothing but respect for those who make it professionally, but it sucks that t.v writers some times come up with such crap. I'm a fan of numerous screenplay writer's blogs, and I know the studios and networks notes and all kind of things, make life hard for those who do it. Few writers truly have creative control over other people's series, but sometimes I just feel like writers slack a lot. I enjoy the show 90210 not really because of the stellar quality of the series but because it is the subject matter I am interested in writing. Teen and young adult sci-fi/fiction (I would love to work on the staff of a CW show). And I feel like when a pure crap episode comes out, it really hurts the legitimacy of the industry. I mean, there is only so much a writer can do, but is there really any excuse for what happened on Buffy season 7? For those of you not in the know, lets just say Buffy The vampire slayer (the t.v series) could be great at times but season seven was a train wreck. Why can't Heroes get back on track? Why did Phoebe's baby daddy storyline on Charmed last so long instead of giving her back her damn powers? Where is your respect for your audience writers? If you don't care then how did you get your jobs? I don't know and it just makes me sad is all. there is a part of me that really wants to be a screenplay writer, but I feel like getting through the doors aren't about really caring for the craft and entertaining people, just about who you know and having enough money that you can support your coke habit, I mean writing career. Oh well love you anyway.

PS. My outline was really good

Life is Life,

Laborday weekend went by to quickly!

I had a blast this weekend, but I didn't really get anything done. Before the weekend started I had a whole plan to take it easy and follow some academic pursuits. That did not happen. I need to learn some self control I guess, but I'm just so lackadaisical that I have a hard time getting things done. Bad trait to have, I know, but I don't want to get all EMO in this blog post. I actually just wanted to highlight some of the awesomeness that was this weekend.
Thursday Night: Went to friend's keggar, almost got into a rumble on the street
Friday: Worked on a group project (so technically some school work did get done), hosted a get together for a friend's 21st birthday, ended the night Hanging with my friends Sully and Amanda.
Saturday: A group of my friends got a party bus and went to the bars. The bus attendant was outrageous and gave us an impromptu show (Think PG rated stripping but without actual nudity. It was weird and she was missing a tooth but I was already intoxicated so It was all in good fun) lost my friends at the bar and ended up getting a ride from a friend of a friend, texted my kinda ex, because I was drunk, ran around in the rain and missed out on a slip and slide some people I know were doing in the rain. that progression is a little fuzzy.
Sunday night: Back At Sully's apartment, because Amanda's dad was in town so he sponsored a night of Jager shots, beer pong(I didn't play because I suck at the game) and crackers and cheese.
Today: I was suppose to do Keggs and Eggs for breakfast but instead watched the Evil Green Ranger Saga with my roommates. That was my weekend in a nut shell.

My name is S and I like to party,

FYI!

Just so y'all know some of the Naked Cafe lingo:
Fit= it's slang, from England. It basically means the same thing as hot, only it's better because it's foreign.
Y'all = You all
Toats= Totally.
Obvs= obviously
Sitch= Situation (clearly I'm far busy to bother to use full words)
"You're a bitch, just like Collie!" (That is kind of an inside joke but it means that someone is flipping out, If any one watched Real World:Denver, they might get it.)
"We're gone do it, we're gone do it!" (Again inside joke. These last two are more about the delivery then the actual substance)
more if I think of them...
N big D(no big deal)
