A visit to the Jersey Shore, Wilde style.......

Broadway's Earnest Leading Men Speak the Language of "Jersey Shore" in Playbill Video Series - Playbill.com

I must tell you this made me laugh out loud...I just, oh my goodness. Makes me love the men from Earnest even more. And I confess, I've never watched any of Jersey shore...but I still love this...I hope it makes you laugh or at least smile a bit more....

And sometimes it's just hormonal......

I started watching HBO's new series "Game of Thrones"...now I could tell you that I watched cause I read the well received fantasy novels written by George RR Martin...but I didn't. I could tell you that I started watching "Game of Thrones" because it's a wonderful exploration of corruption of power with some amazing sets and it's epic...but I really didn't. I could tell you I'm watching it because it's a hell of a lot better in one episode than "Camelot" has proven to be..(we'll maybe a little). But the two biggest reasons I'm watching the show are as follows in (pictures are indeed worth a thousand words). Yup I'm watching "Game of Thrones" for Sean Bean and Jason Momoa. Now if you don't know who Sean Bean is well shame on you. A great actor one of the best 007 villains (006) for Pierce Brosnan. A wonderful addition to Lord of the Rings, and amazing and sexy as all hell in "Sharpe" (the series based on wonderful novels by Bernard Cornwall-read them they're really good). I'll see Bean in anything, he adds a wonderful gravitas to the show. What does Jason Momoa add? Well first off most folks don't know him. I happen to know him from catching glimpses of him in Stargate: Atlantis. Now I never really watched that show, honest but one look at this man, and good lord, did I need a fan to cool off. I gotta tell you he is perhaps the most amazing male specimen I have ever seen. Acting? well who cares. He's going to be in this summer's reboot of Conan the Barbarian and he plays Khal Drogo (ok he's basically playing Conan the Barbarian)in "thrones". But honestly, who really cares about that, let's just say this man is HOT! I'm so sorry to be writing like this but honestly if I ever saw this guy in person (and you won't miss him he's 6' 4") I'd fall down, grab his knees and beg him to take me home with him. Of course that could prove a problem since he's been with Lisa Bonnet for some time. Hey girl not fair, Lenny Kravitz and him, urg...ah well. Anyway, do watch the show some great acting and plots, it'll be great I tell you. But when it comes down to it, I'm still watching it for the adult eye candy. No whimpering lads in this tale (well ok some, but Bean and Momoa make up for it!) Enjoy!

Let's not go to Camelot...it's a silly place

Okay things I discovered last week to sadly prove I am getting old.

1) I Am NOT interested in standing 80 minutes or more to see a freakin' theater show. Interactive theater does not mean break my back theater. So Club Oberon, honestly provide seats for a show. No more of this "shove Stephie 85 ways as the actors move about the space." I'll be happy to stay out of your way if I HAD a place to sit...then I could avoid actors and those other theatergoers on the dance floor who seem to enjoy invading my personal space..Wait I can't have personal space cause I'm stuck with 100 other folks on the dance floor urg...

2) Every guy I like in the new Camelot series on Cable plays a secondary character. Why you make ask...okay here it comes.....CAUSE THEY"RE OLD! Expendable too. Why...oh here we go again....cause they're OLD. I tried to watch a full episode of Camelot, excited because James Purfoy (brilliant as Marc Antony in Rome) and Sean Pertwee (great in the Cadfael mystery series) were listed in the cast. We'll (Spoiler alert) they both don't make it through the first episode, not cause they can't act (cause they can) but cause they're not 19. At the end of the show I was left watching an Arthur who looks like Keira Knightly with a bad blond wig on, and some interchangeable knights, oh and some chicks who feel good dropping their gowns cause they somehow found a source for waxing and perfect white teeth during the middle ages. Oh and Camelot must not be a castle but a Fitness Center cause they all have cut muscles! Arthur is sooo young I don't think his voice has actually changed yet. And if you think I'm going to get excited watching this crew -you've got another thing coming. Oh and to add insult to injury they have the wrong Fiennes brother employed. Sorry Joseph, I wish you the best, but eww eww eww...He's like the younger Baldwin brothers; they look enough like Alec that you know they're related, but looks and talent wise, boy was there a big drop off....

Okay I rest my case for now. Leading men turned to supporting "character actors"; and my desire to have a seat at theater shows. Maybe next time I go to Oberon I can bring a folding chair!
