    Stanley Kowalski Has Dropped The "Kowalski"

    As you know, Tennessee Williams' culture-clash classic A Streecar Named Desire is coming to Broadway any moment now, featuring a cast of color. Well, at a Drama Desk panel discussion at Sardi's the other day, Blair Underwood--who's playing the old Brando role, the brutish Stanley Kowalski--said he' ... More >>

    Sandra Bernhard Turned Down Sex and the City

    On Howard Stern's show, mouthy comic Sandra Bernhard admitted that she turned down the role of Miranda on Sex and the City. Batshit crazy? No, hold on people, hear out her reasons. For one thing, she says, the script was absolutely horrible.

    Cynthia Nixon Says She Chose To Be Gay! Oops! Controversy!

    I didn't choose it, though I do remember a pubescent period where I felt it could probably have gone either way. But after gamely trying to get turned on by photos of women (even women who looked a bit like guys), I realized I could just as easily pretend to be the Queen of Roumania. I was defini ... More >>

    Sex and the City Stars On Broadway!

    ​So Cynthia Nixon will be coming back to Broadway this season in a revival of the Pulitzer winning Wit, about a woman sardonically dealing with the depersonalization of cancer treatments. Well, guess who she could very well be competing with for the Tony?

    Law & Order Does Spider-Man Musical Episode

    ​We usually ignore Law & Order: Criminal Intent because it's the creepy Vincent D'Onofrio Law & Order that got banished to USA Network, but their Sunday episode just sounds too good to resist.

    Rightbloggers on Sex and the City: Still Hate Sex, and City, But Love That Anti-Muslim Angle

    The reviews are in, and Sex and the City 2 looks like the season's biggest critical bomb. Though the film drew a decent crowd in its opening weekend, it was lambasted by critics both highbrow ("almost avant-garde adventure in aimlessness" -- Wall Street Journal) and low ("Sucks in the city" -- New ...
