    Pretty As A Picture – An episode with this many townies written by dan Palladino could have been as interesting as watching paint dry. But it clips along at a steady pace and is over before you know it. That doesn’t mean it’s full of exciting adventures. In fact, it’s stuffed with some of the…

  • dan reviews pamie’s favorite guest spot

    To all concerned industry power players: Pamie and I now come as a package deal. She can be on The Daily Show as long as I’ve written the jokes for the opening news segment. As a staff writer. On The Daily Show. Thank you in advance. It would be the ultimate in Fun Stuff. A…

  • book tour debate

    Sara Nelson explains why she didn’t have a book tour, causing Jennifer Weiner to stick up for the practice. Based on my own experiences, I’d tour a book all over the country if someone would let me. But I didn’t have a dime when this book came out, and was already into Save Karyn territory…

  • dan and pamie have a lot of free time, suddenly

    Sorry, Pam. I loved your recaps. I loved the pecs. I loved the one episode I saw, that was reshot anyway. Sigh. Maybe I’m just in love with love.

    scratch that. For the first time ever, there’s a cat I don’t like.

  • LA woman
