‘Glee’s’ Lea Michele & Matthew Morrison at Tony Awards: Did they dazzle you?
Posted: June 13, 2010 in awards, gleeMatthew Morrison’s performance of Gypsy’s “All I Need Is a Girl” at Sunday night’s Tony Awards proved perfectly why Glee needs to give him more “Dream Ons” and less “Thong Songs.” When he’s in his element, Morrison is terrific, charming and not at all cringe-inducing. Sorry, I liked “Gold Digger” and “Bust a Move,” but [...]

Dr. Horrible’s timing is nothing if not perfect. Unfortunately, his foresight is not as strong. Captain Hammer interrupted Dr. Horrible’s “The Internet is the future!” spiel with an ode to the everlasting power of television and [...]

Snubbed performers and filmmakers can take comfort in the fact that come Golden Globe night, the nominees will be at home too. Steve Carell (Dan in Real Life) As the obnoxious Michael Scott, Steve Carell is nominated in [...]
The Golden Globe nominations were announced yesterday and, as usual, there were some welcome surprises and horrible snubs. There really is no pleasing everyone when it comes to awards. They’ll always get it a little bit right and a whole lot wrong. While the cache of winning an award is great for a new or [...]
