No Deal.
Last night was the premiere of Howie Mandel’s attempted comeback show, “Deal Or No Deal”… any gameshow where it takes you more than 12 seconds to explain the premise is doomed for failure.
I predict the expression “Deal Or No Deal” will be a catch phrase for about a month, then the show will be forgotten completely, much like Howie Mandel’s rubber glove routine. What rubber glove routine? Exactly.
Carrie made Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Cherry cookies last night for her workmates — and me. The recipe was stolen from Bertram Van Munster and his secret steel vault, buried thousands of feet underground, protected by a high-intensity infrared laser detection system.
And yes, there really is a Bertram Van Munster. The next Amazing Race 9 challenge should be a race to the ultimate cookie recipe at Bertram Van Munster’s house…and the first one to eat 100 cookies wins more.
This past weekend we saw “The Family Stone”, starring SJP, Diane Keaton, Luke Wilson and Rupert Everett Dylan McDermott
Dermot Mulroney.
Not the most uplifting Christmas movie in the world, but enjoyable nonetheless. A) Because someone sold us a ticket for $5 and B) Because we had some sangria going in. There were about 150 people or so in the theater — no joke : 147 of them were female. SJP puts asses in the seats, no doubt. Girl’s asses. At one point in the movie this cute baby came on the screen and in unison, all 147 female voices go “Awwwwww”. It was pretty crazy — I haven’t seen that much estrogen in one room since… ummm… since Martha Stewart and Miss Piggy tickled Oprah Winfrey’s labia. Carrie gives 7.1 zaps out of 10 and I give 6.7.
One Response to “No Deal.”
Dude — you and Clams need to see “Just Friends.” It’s easily a dumb, predictable plot, but
a) Several laugh out louds with fab physical humor goin’ on.
b) Everything Ryan Reynolds says is funny.
Even my friend who doesn’t lust for bad rom-com movies thought it was enjoyable!
