Why We Love Our Television Heroes: Mad Men Episode 6

August 30, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 5 Comments

Bigger than life. Flashy. Flawed. Cagey, corrupt, capricious. We love our television heroes, and our anti-heroes. Big screen or small screen, we escape into fictional lives, finding points in common, or nothing in common at all. Mad Men is the perfect example of this phenomenon, as the Emmy award winning drama – again, just last […]

Mad Men Episode 5: The Chrysanthemum and the Sword

August 23, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 4 Comments

It’s a morality tale, and all about shame. About warfare and its aftermath, honor and its value, private shame according to cultural standards of the times, and personal experiences of shame. In Mad Men‘s Season 4 Episode 5, The Chrysanthemum and the Sword, we feel the weight of the 1960s heavily; World Wart II is […]

Buzz

July 19, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 8 Comments

Buzz over a celebrity engagement. Buzz over bad behavior. Buzz over a new gadget, or political scandal. Hello Levi and Bristol? Mel Gibson? The iPhone4? Mark Sanford, or maybe even Al and Tipper Gore? Buzz over our favorite television shows, like reality TV. Buzz over Erik and Miles, name calling on Work of Art. Controversy […]

Good news and bad news

July 6, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 16 Comments

There’s good news and bad news. Oh, I won’t even begin to discuss the state of the BP oil spill, our lagging economy, not to mention my pitiful personal life. But there’s still a cornucopia of good news – offset of course, by weird news (at the very least), and yes, bad news. But may […]

Real Drama: Real Housewives NY Reunion Recap

June 15, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 11 Comments

I would say “I couldn’t help myself,” but I don’t care for that expression. I could chalk it up to needing to stay plugged into pop culture as a selfless act of serious journalism, but I don’t think you’d buy it. Instead, I’ll cop to my addiction to Real Housewives of New York City, and […]

It’s Complicated

June 1, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 14 Comments

Give me more Meryl. Give us all more Meryl.  Oh, I don’t mean it literally, though I’m enthralled watching Meryl Streep cast in any role. And thanks to cable television, I spent much of my wet weekend catching up on films I’d never seen in the theater. I thoroughly enjoyed the Oscar winning actress in […]

Reality TV. Would You Do It?

April 23, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 12 Comments

I watch about half of them. Those dreadful, embarrassing, addictive Reality TV shows. Like watching a train wreck. Can’t quite avert the eyes. What can I say? It’s my guilty pleasure. Guiltier for some than others. And the Reality TV shows I watch? Top Chef and Top Chef Masters? Definitely. I enjoy viewing with my […]

Real Housewives, Real Adults, Real Friends?

March 14, 2010 by D. A. Wolf 17 Comments

I’ll fess up. I spent three hours the other night (happily) watching Bravo TV. Yep, those Housewives again. Embarrassing Behaviors First I watched the Real Housewives of Orange County (the Reunion Show, in two parts). Then I watched the newest episode of Real Housewives of New York. Twice. Okay, make that four hours of Reality […]

Real men don’t wear pumps

November 5, 2009 by D. A. Wolf 6 Comments

Call me crazy, but every time I see a man in high heels – not lifts, mind you – high heels – ladies high heels – I shake my head. Do you hear me Real Housewives of Atlanta? I’m not talking cross-dressing, drag queens, or trannies in pumps. To them, I say go for it, […]

Why Women Love Baseball… Movies

October 26, 2009 by D. A. Wolf 41 Comments

It’s that time of year! Major League Baseball – World Series 2009! I’m not necessarily a big fan of baseball, but baseball movies? In October? I love them! In fact (shhhhhh), I’d probably lump a few of them into the “chick flick” category. I suppose I shouldn’t speak for all women when I say we […]
