Among all the new shows from the Fall TV season line up, The Playboy Club was the one I anticipated the most. I’ve been reading a lot of comparisons between this show and Showgirls and Mad Men, a movie and a TV show that are both very close to my heart. That’s why I expected a lot of cat fighting, sex and classy 60′s shenanigans. Unfortunately, it didn’t have a lot of those. But hey, AMBER HEARD.
It’s not as sexy as Showgirls and it doesn’t have the compelling retro feel of Mad Men, but it does have potential. Also, mobsters. So yes, this means I’ll be back for more. I’m eager to see where it goes from this decent pilot. Because I love the 60′s. And mobsters. And Amber Heard. Speaking of Amber Heard, here are 6 GIFs I made just because.

I still think that Money in the Bank is the best 2011 WWE PPV so far but Night of Champions has its amusing moments. It was slightly disappointing mostly because some matches had unsatisfying endings while others just didn’t have impact. If you still haven’t seen it and you can’t wait for the replay, here be spoilers.
Air Boom v. The Miz & R-Truth
As usual, Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne amazes. The Miz and R-Truth aren’t too shabby either. Unfortunately, the match ends in a DQ which is the most annoying way to end a match next to a count-out. Air Boom retains the Tag Team Championship. Miz and Truth beat up a ref.

My current TV show obsession is Hell’s Kitchen US. After seeing the last part of Hell’s Kitchen Season 7, I was hooked. It’s not about the food because really, most of the time, the food that comes out of a challenge looks like crap. The meat of the show is the service segment where chefs and cooks try to please the personification of all kitchen nightmares, the ruthless ruler of Hell’s Kitchen, the Devil Himself, Gordon Ramsay.

*** Not actual Gordon Ramsay quote. But it could be.

I haven’t read a single issue of Locke & Key but watching this trailer for the pilot episode of the TV adaptation is enough to pique my interest. Unfortunately, the pilot wasn’t picked up by Fox. Boo. Now, just like with the Wonder Woman show that never was, I have to hunt down the unaired Locke & Key pilot. Thanks a lot, leaked trailer. Watch it after the jump.

I just saw WWE Summerslam 2011 and its ridiculous ending. I call it ridiculous and I want you all to know that it’s a compliment. I’ve been a fan of pro wrestling since I was a kid and I’ve always known that it was scripted. This is why when people say that it’s fake, I just go NO SHIT, SHERLOCK. I don’t really get why people always feel the need to announce that pro wrestling is fake like they’ve just uncovered a super conspiracy dating back to the time of Christ. It’s a form of entertainment. It’s a loud piece of performance art. It looks like a sport, yes, but it has more similarities to the following than, say, basketball or squash.
