Meh

Thanks to dlisted, we found out that FOX is regurgitating Ab Fab.

Not impressed:

Kristen Johnston gave EW a little more information on what's going on with the new American butchery of the beloved Absolutely Fabulous. Kristen corrected the previous rumors that she's in talks to play Edie. Bitch is in the running for Patsy. Some bitch named Kathryn Hahn is in talks to play Edie. Okay, Kristen is more of a Patsy, but that still doesn't make it right.

...Feel the pain when reading Kristen describe this future caca show, "I think they captured the exact amount of sweetie-darling. I mean, it’s a totally different element, it’s a totally different show. We don’t smoke, we are hungover all the time, we chew Nicorette, we’re trying to be more PC, but I think it really works. It’s one of those scripts that’s like my favorite kind because on paper you’re like, Oh, this is funny, but when you read it out loud with two actresses, it’s, like, the funniest shit ever."

Basically, this sounds more like a remake of that disaster High Society.


One of our fav moments here:

Wheel Of Fierce

A homosexual appeared on an old game show my grandmother watches before she has a dementia blackout face first in to her lime jello.

This is a big deal now because he acknowledged his fiancé, which is a fake term sodomists use to refer to thier heathen partners-in-sin.

From Fey:

Yay! Gay!

Everybody (like, two people) is making a big deal about how this gay dude won on Wheel of Fortune last week, and how he thanked his male fiancee, and even got to give said fiancee a timid little on-air hug after his victory.

But seriously, is proving to flyover America that we KNOW HOW TO SPIN WHEELS and KNOW HOW TO SPELL such an acheivement?* I'd be much prouder if one of our kind won on a DIFFICULT game show, like Jeopardy, or a glacially-paced primetime show like Deal or No Deal, where the flaming gaytestant would be given an extended period of time to rub their unsettling feyness in America's Doritos-dusted eyeholes.
