Target Women: Feed your F—ing Family

It always seems as though that luminary Current goddess, Sarah Haskins is noticing exactly what I’m noticing, and this time around, it’s the fact that commercials put the onus on moms to do the dinner things… when dads do it, it turns out to be a hilarious horrible disaster. When moms do it, they better do it right or else their children will be malnourished Jeffery Dahmers. Just check it out.

The L Word Lives

The L Word is heading into its sixth and final season, but the show’s creator is developing a spinoff. One character is going to get a show of her own.

I unfortunately don’t watch the show because I don’t get Showtime, but if anyone does, I’d be glad to know what you think: What character gets to continue TV’s big lesbian drama?!

I wish I’m this hot at 40!

AOL/ Black Voices have the list of the hottest women over 40. The interesting part was half of them I had no IDEA they were beyond their 30s, so good for them (not that your skin starts falling off at midnight on your 40th birthday or anything. Besides, that’s what botox is for).

A few of my faves (and a few I have questions about) after the jump :

Linkage: Showbiz Edition

This morning’s Emmy noms have people abuzz with all kinds of questions like, “What about the Mad Men Actresses?!?” and “Masterpiece Theater still exists?!?”

All this showbiz talk, (at least for me, I work in LA) is cause for a roundup of all the ish going down in Tinseltown…

The newly-nominated Amy Poehler is taking on a spinoff of the wildly popular NBC show, The Office. This probably means she’ll be ditching SNL, especially with a baby on the way…

Despite everyone being so freaked out about Katherine Heigl “blasting” the Grey’s writing crew, she’s staying on as Dr. Izzie Stevens. She said the writing didn’t really give her a reason to throw her name in the hat for an Emmy, and she’s right. The writing this season was sub-par compared to 2006-2007, and that probably had something to do with the writer’s strike.

Speaking of the Emmys, check out Neil Patrick Harris and Kristin Chenoweth ham up the nomination announcements — much better than the usual fare, and at 5 a.m. no less!

Katy Perry’s annoyingly catchy, dance-worthy hit “I Kissed A Girl” still tops the Billboard chart, keeping 12 year olds everywhere comfortable with making out with their best friend so they could tell their boyfriends.

And Eugene at Cinematical is worried about adorable little Michael Cera and the film adaptation of Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist. I don’t blame him.

Elbow Elbow Wrist Wrist

Well, if you have yet to see/hear, Miss USA fell at this weekend’s Miss Universe. At least she wasn’t stupid about it. She fell, got right back up, even clapped to acknowledge “Yup, this is going to be on YouTube for the rest of my life” and kept on going.

This was the second year in a row, apparently, that Miss USA fell at the beauty pageant scholarship competition. Miss USA 2007 didn’t do quite as well; she kinda played it safe and cautious.

And because it never gets old, a model falls through a freaking hole, and The Hatian on Heros rescues her. The Hatian people are a rather benevolent bunch…

Oh well

Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel broke up, according to their publicists. Maybe she really was fu**ing Matt Damon.
