TV that I missed 1. That episode of The Office where everyone takes Prozac and explains why being happy is more important than entertaining me. 2. All of Entourage except the one where Vinny dates his yoga instructor, and some of last season when Andrew Dice Clay was on. 3. Homeland…is it good? Is it like The Wire good? Because honestly I was not that into The Wire. I’m sorry, I gave it a shot. 4. Breaking Bad. I know! I will start watching Justified soon too, I promise. And Downton Abbey. And The Voice. 5. You know what the real problem is? I don’t like new things anymore. I have all these stations and I swear to god the other day I watched X-Men: First Class and 13 Going on 30 for what must be the 10th time. Each. 6. The episode in Game of Thrones where they explain how Sir Jorah went from being this totally fat, bear-man in the books to looking like Sir Richard Carlisle from Downton Abbey. (I still haven’t seen Downton Abbey, but I did Google the actor and that’s the only other way people will recognize him. Also, remember when Littlefinger was on The Wire? I don’t.) 7. The episode of The Killing where they accidentally solve the Laura Palmer case due to a clerical error. 8. The Sopranos. (I know, I’m the worst!) 9. Most of Glee this season. I just feel like they lost me with that whole Rachel-Finn marriage plot. 10. The documentary on Woody Allen. I know I can watch it online, it’s just…who has the time, you know?

Today some of The New York Observer’s staff sent Bugles to Vanity Fair’s offices. We were honestly trying to be helpful to their cause of becoming Fat Betty Francis as soon as possible. As to be expected, they used it as a chance to review how different types of Bugles taste.

youngmanhattanite: 92y: dogsareadorable: I know a lot of you have been asking “Drew, when are you finally going to moderate a panel/staged reading with that guy you once yelled at about vampires over the Internet and the director of Hostel II?” And I always answered with, “As soon as they find another Skarsgard to make famous.” Well: I’m no welcher, and come April 11th, y’all better be at the 92YTribeca because it’s going down. Horror Business expert Drew Grant (read her “four things horror movie remakes get wrong”) is moderating a reading + talk with Brian McGreevy and Eli Roth? You don’t want to miss this. I mean, how good are the Misfits? Pancake good.

An Indie-Rock Memoir From Carrie Brownstein - NYTimes.com

journalofajournalist:

housingworksbookstore:

Riverhead Books has acquired a book that is sure to thrill indie-rock fans: the memoir of Carrie Brownstein, a singer, songwriter and guitarist in Sleater-Kinney, a beloved all-female band from Olympia, Wash. Ms. Brownstein, who is on tour with a new band, Wild Flag, will write a book about her life in music, Riverhead said Sunday. She is also a creator and star of “Portlandia,” the IFC show that satirizes hipster culture. Jynne Martin, a spokeswoman for Riverhead, part of Penguin Group (USA), said no title or publication date had been decided.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Carrie Brownstein—winner of the Ian MacKaye Punk Rock Work Ethic Award.

One hour till Game of Thrones!

I hope all of Westeros falls for a super-cool April Fool’s Day prank.

Dear Upstairs Neighbors, Hi! I know we’ve never been formally introduced, but that’s because I’m almost completely sure you are a reclusive ghost couple with a giant dog. Now, usually the sounds of your dead (undead? alive? adopted from shelter?) pooch scampering across the hardwood floors doesn’t bother me, but coupled with the this morning’s monthly “Stomp Around and Moan” banshee burning, well, call me crazy, but I haven’t slept all night and I might just come up there. And you don’t want that, because I am not wearing clothes right now.

“Drew Grant is the Socialite reporter from NY Observer, she’s also a fucking bitch. She took the most elaborate prank I ever pulled and used it to prank my ass so hard, I totally lost my temper at Hooters. Allow me to explain…”
Gavin McInnes, keeping it classy about our prank. (Hey, i’m a socialite reporter!)

This is actually hysterical…would love to see someone try it on some of those Game of Thrones nerds.
