(Her worst nightmare) A sitcom named Lauren! I’ll be in high heels and a skirt on a bike, singing my own theme song as I ride by.

I would watch that all day.

"This Wednesday, May 23 marked a first for broadcasting (and for feminism): BBC Radio news anchor Victoria Derbyshire aired her mid-morning show live from an abortion clinic. Her goal was refreshingly straightforward, as explained in her introduction, “What we’d like to do is tell you what happens when a woman considers an abortion and then decides to have one."

People are going to love me for that headline, aren’t they? But it was a quietly revolutionary show, so I wanted to write about it.

"Vera said: “Why do you feel you have to turn everything into a story?”
So I told her why.
Because if I tell the story, I control the version.
Because if I tell the story, I can make you laugh, and I would rather have you laugh at me than feel sorry for me.
Because if I tell the story, it doesn’t hurt as much.
Because if I tell the story, I can get on with it."

Nora Ephron, Heartburn (1983)

Kate Hudson, as a New Orleans advertising superstar, negotiates her three wishes with Whoopi Goldberg (as herself) in heaven during Hudson’s character’s colonoscopy.
(Yes, I know it’s nice outside and I’m going out there soon. For some reason I had to punish myself with “A Little Bit of Heaven” first.)

Shocked I haven’t seen this already.

"Mr Spooner added: ‘If someone with a disability complains, it has ten times the weight of an able-bodied person’s complaint. ‘I was labelled non-PC because it was said my customers did not move out of the way for someone in a wheelchair. ‘If a dwarf says he can’t live opposite a nightclub, then it is impossible to have a nightclub there because able-bodied people are having fun. ‘This country has become so scared of being non-PC.’"

Shonda Rhimes, the creator of Grey’s Anatomy, has a new mid-season show called Scandal. This is old news and you are watching it, right? It has moments of prime time soap opera cheese (think Revengian TV), but other times it’s just so well crafted and captivating. Kerry Washington deserves all the attention she is getting for this role.

It’s really exciting TV (and has given work to Gilmore Girls and MSCL alum) and I’m in awe of Olivia Pope. (Yes, Pope.)

Consider that it’s incredibly unclaimed and that it’s not coming from a credible source. 

This is the best credible information we currently have.

NBC is going to announce their fall schedule on Sunday, if not Monday at the upfronts. Hold tight till then.

Partay! Parenthood is coming back. (15 eps is a bit of a letdown. But I’ll take it.)
