WTF is that remake? The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo edition

by Devil’s Food Cake

So I hate film remakes at the best of times (what’s the point even? I didn’t watch Conan the Barbarian the first time around, I’m extremely unlikely to watch a testosterone-pumped version of the same. Also the Swedish version of Let the Right One In was far superior to its Hollywood remake, as was the Korean version of The Eye and every Japanese version of every horror film ever). … Continue Reading

View from the Couch: Candy Bar Girls Episode 4

by Devil’s Food Cake and Fairy Cake

WE KNOW WE KNOW it’s been ages and we should have gotten this done before and we’re terrible people and all that. But we have excuses! They involve illness, laziness and drunkenness. Are we forgiven? Good. We’re grateful. Also – DFC forgot to tweeze her eyebrows and Fairy Cake is wearing a “shitty beanie” because we don’t care. That’s just how we roll. … Continue Reading

Friday Fancy… Eliza Dushku

by Devil’s Food Cake

Who was your favourite Buffy character? I mean, there’s a lot to choose from, but for me there was never really a competition. I loved Faith. Hands down, unequivocally – she was smart, she was sarky, and she wasn’t half as lamely goody-two-shoes as Buffy was sometimes.

Plus – and let’s be frank about how important this point is – she was totally hot. We can’t give that one all to Faith though, because Eliza Dushku managed to transfer that hotness to basically every role she’s ever played. … Continue Reading

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS, this show is starting to go nowhere very, very fast. Neither Fairy Cake nor I are sure we can take this anymore. So we’ve tried drinking more – seriously, you should see FC go for it this episode – but it’s not working.

I guess what we’re trying to say is: we have some wine, but does anyone have a straw? … Continue Reading

Easy like Sunday… the Real Housewives of SNL

by Devil’s Food Cake

Who loves a funny woman? How about a whole bunch of them? This gem comes from a ‘Women of SNL’ special from last year. And yes, I know this video is from Perez Hilton, for whom I have no great love, but it’s impossible to find a copy that works outside the US and it’s so hilarious it had to be shared. You’ll recognise Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph from the recent, HILARIOUS ‘Bridesmaids’. … Continue Reading

True Blood is back and there are lesbians EVERYWHERE

by Devil’s Food Cake

I complain a lot about how there are no lesbians (or only crap lesbians – I’m looking at you, Frankie) on TV. I guess the Powers That Be Must have heard one of my complaints and decided to do something about it, because True Blood has lesbians falling out of its freaking ears. How many are there? Let me count them out for you (warning: there may be spoilers). … Continue Reading

Lip Service is back and it’s whiter than ever before.

by Devil’s Food Cake

Everyone’s favourite dire lesbian series is back – and it’s whiter than ever.

Okay, so I know I sound like a whining, repetitive bitch about this – and maybe I should just shut up and be like, yeah, they’re all white, all the time, get over it, etcetera etcetera, but they were EVER SO SLIGHTLY ON TRACK AT THE END OF LAST SEASON SO WTF HAPPENED? … Continue Reading

Vag Mag Episode 6: Revelling/Reckoning

The final. The end. The last one. What I mean to say is: Vag Magazine’s first season is finito. The world is a slightly sadder place. Oh well. At least this one’s awesome too. … Continue Reading

Glee’s gay bullying episode: the good and the bad.

by Devil’s Food Cake

I remember that feeling I had when I first realised I was gay. It was great. I was almost instantly more comfortable in my own skin, I felt really strongly about another person (who didn’t have a penis! BONUS), and, you know, Things Made Sense. Awesome. But what then? … Continue Reading

Colour me in: racial diversity in Lip Service

by Devil’s Food Cake

You guys should know – there are perks that come with writing for TMC, one of which is most definitely preview discs. Oh the joy I felt when the first episode of Lip Service popped through my letterbox – it was a pretty sweet feeling. And the premiere of Lip Service this week was pretty exciting too: now that the first season of the Real L Word is over, I’ve been waiting for something gay and trashy … Continue Reading
