...This My-Name-Is-Girl concept may be outlandish, but Ex List is also fresh and raunchily funny (there's a scene in the pilot comparing feminine-waxing choices to historical figures - the "Hitler," the "Gandhi"), and Reaser is winning and adorable. If you can check your skepticism at the psychic's bead curtain, it's a charming, funny, undemanding escape - a sort of romantic procedural. Any praise for the show needs an asterisk, though, because the original producer-writer, Diane Ruggiero, recently quit in a creative dispute with CBS, which she said resisted the changes she wanted to make...

...women, the consistently, tragically underestimated constituency. What the Democrats learned during the primaries and the Republicans might now be finding out the hard way, I learned at my very academic, well-regarded all-girls high school: that is never to discount the ability of women to open a robust, committed, well-thought-out vat of hatred for another girl...

...wondering where you had dug up this misogynist ranter who also believes that all Alaskans are leeches and not "real Americans." I am going to guess that he is journalist who lives, or has lived, in Washington. Sarah has really got to those ol' boys. You go, girl! B. J. O'Byrne, MEATH, IRELAND...
