“I think once you give birth, you realize you can kill.”


This is an interesting video interview to watch for fans of Weeds. It features Jenji Kohan, series creator, giving her commentary on the Season 6 finale and what is to come for the Botwin family. Plus, she admits that Season 7, in her mind, is most likely the final season.

Will they kill Nancy Botwin? Kohan apparently has two endings in mind for the show. In one, Nancy goes down but “in a blaze of glory.”

He’s not doing it right. You have to embrace the light and the dark equally.

Bad Girl Bombshell of the Day: Elizabeth Perkins as Celia Hodes on Weeds
This post comes at a strange time. I, however, have recently learned that Celia will be axed from the series this coming season, one way or another. I hear rumors that Elizabeth Perkins is looking to get into more movies. I also hear rumors that people are unsatisfied with what Celia hodes has become. I say, fix the character because she’s absolutely necessary to the show’s wellbeing at this point. This, to me, could be a fatal blow to what I consider to be my favorite television show.
I feel as though, if nothing else, Celia represents where Nancy Botwin came from. Even if they absolutely loath each other a the moment, I feel like every single time the characters look at each other they can’t help but think, “look at how far we’ve come. what happened?” You need that in Weeds. These people are lost in a war of Mexican politics at the moment and everyone hates this! You need Celia to remind both the characters and the fans of where the show came from.

I feel like what they have going with Celia right now is good. The fans of the show want Nancy to return to mid-grade weed dealing but that just doesn’t seem feasible at the moment. Having Celia get into the business could be fun. I get that she’s the show’s punching bag and it’s been nice over the course of some mediocre seasons. I, however, much prefer the times when Celia and Nancy recognized each others flaws yet chose to be friends. Call me crazy, but I thought that made sense. 

Elizabeth Perkins, please make a quick return to Weeds. Your return is of dire consequence.

Nothing Better than a Bad Girl Bombshell

L

eighton Meester, Megan Hauserman, Olivia Palermo, and more.

I’ve been monitoring this blog’s progress over the past month or so using an outside analytics software. I’m happy to report that people are reading and the readers do grow exponentially as the days go by. Keep in mind, I only really hope for one enthusiastic reader per post. That isn’t why I’m posting now, though.

Instead, I’d like to make it known that I apparently get about five times as many readers for a post about a hot girl than I do about anything else; hollywood, movies, news, music, quotes, etc. As a thank you to those girls who have made the blog more popular than I thought it would be, and a lot more fun to write, here’s an extra helping of each!

PS: I had to turn on the google safe search when getting some new Megan pics… so here’s an extra pic of fan favorite Hauserman! Also, Megan has been especially supportive of the blog, so sign her petition for a new VH1 show below.

A Thank-You Note to Men

By Mary-Louise Parker

from Esquire Magazine

To you, whom it may concern:

Manly creature, who smells good even when you don’t, you wake up too slowly, with fuzzy, vertical hair and a slightly lost look on your face as though you are seven or seventy-five; you can fix my front door, my sink, and open most jars; you, who lose a cuff link and have to settle for a safety pin, you have promised to slay unfortunate interlopers and dragons with your Phillips head or Montblanc; to you, because you will notice a woman with a healthy chunk of years or pounds on her and let out a wolf whistle under your breath and mean it; because you think either rug will be fine, really it will; you seem to walk down the street a little taller than me, a little more aware but with a purpose still; to you who codifies, conjugates, slams a puck, baits a hook, builds a decent cabinet or the perfect sandwich; you who gives a twenty to the kids selling Hershey’s bars and waits at baggage claim for three hours in your flannel shirt; you, sir, you take my order, my pulse, my bullshit; you who soaps me in the shower, soaks with me in the tub; to you, boy grown-up, the gentleman, soldier, professor, or caveman, the fancy man with initials on your towels and salt on your chocolates, to you and to that guy at the concession stand; thank you for the tour of the vineyard, the fire station, the sound booth, thank you for the kaleidoscope, the Horsehead Nebula, the painting, the truth; to you who carries me across the parking lot, up the stairs, to the ER, to roll-away or rice mat; to you who shows up every so often only to confuse and torment, and you who stays in orbit, always, to my left and steady, you stood up for me, I won’t forget that; to you, the one who can’t figure it out and never will, and you who lost the remote, the dog, or your way altogether; to you, wizard, you sang in my ear and brought me back from the dead, you tell me things, make me shiver; to the ones who destroyed me, even if for a minute, and to the ones who grew me, consumed me, gave me my heart back times ten; to most everything that deserves to call itself a man: How I do love thee, with your skill to light fires that keep me warm, light me up.

Mary Louise Parker reads me us a bedtime story.

Tonight, it’s Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.
