Jonathan Bernstein: Aerial view of America

27 November 2009 4:15 PM, PST | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »

On Us telly this month, V gets a bland reboot, Wanda Sykes heads a rash of uninspiring new late-night talkshows, and Sex Rehab marks a new low in reality TV

Probe a geek of a certain age about his recollections of the cult 80s alien invasion series V and he – there's no question it'll be a he – will have only one response: the moment the alien commander extended her jaw until it was a foot long and then swallowed a gerbil. Over the course of two miniseries and a sporadically scheduled season of one-hour episodes, V chronicled the occupation of Earth by a seemingly benign race of visitors who swiftly revealed themselves to be evil lizards hiding under lifelike rubber flesh fomenting plans to take over the planet and colonise the flabbergasted inhabitants. V's journey from insanely addictive to entirely unwatchable was speedy. But it remained on the air long »

Rosie O'Donnell recently admitted that she split with partner Kelli Carpenter two years ago, and now she's admitted that she hates being single. Of course she does. It's stressful enough for um, "agreeable" people to be single for long stretches of time, but we're sure Rosie knows that she's a bit on the, let's say, "difficult" side. We're sure she spends a lot of time wondering whether or not she'll ever find someone else who can tolerate her weird haiku blog posts.Speaking to People magazine, Rosie O'Donnell said, "I'm not [enjoying the single life]. But on we grow, so to speak." See, it's a little pun such as that one that makes Rosie su ... »

Ever since she confirmed earlier this month that her partner Kelli Carpenter had left their house two years ago, Rosie O'Donnell has no hesitation to share with the press the things inside her love life. And she has on Monday, November 23 during the Rosie's Broadway Extravaganza in N.Y.C., told Us Weekly that she isn't enjoying the single life.

"But on we grow, so to speak," the openly lesbian star was quick to add. She, furthermore, revealed that she finds comfort in her dog. "My little dog, Missy, is great. I love animals. I think they are really important to people to connect to somebody," she theorized.

Rosie attended the annual Broadway Extravaganza with the companion of her son Parker and friend Judy Gold. Commenting on Rosie and Kelli's failed marriage, Judy stated she understands why Rosie waited for two years before finally making it public that she and Kelli have separated. »

O'Donnell Hid Split For Two Years

18 November 2009 11:16 AM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Rosie O'Donnell hid her split from partner Kelli Carpenter for two years.

The lesbian actress-turned-talk show host recently confirmed the couple had separated during an appearance on Howard Stern's U.S. radio show, revealing the pair had "come to a point where we are seeing (if) what will make everyone happiest is maybe to not live together" - for the benefit of their four children.

O'Donnell initially denied rumours suggesting Carpenter had actually left the marital home back in 2007 - but she came clean during her own Sirius radio show last week (ends13Nov09).

During a conversation about her pet Chihuahua Misty, O'Donnell said, "What happened (was) when Kelli moved out two years ago, I got the dog. Because I wanted another child or something to love. And I got the dog."

O'Donnell and Carpenter married back in 2004. »

Kathy Griffin will play gay on "Svu"

11 November 2009 7:00 AM, PST | AfterEllen.com | See recent AfterEllen.com news »

Kathy Griffin may not love Lindsay Lohan, but she has celebrated lesbians like Melissa Etheridge and Rosie O'Donnell on her successful show, My Life on the D-List. And then, of course, there was the "kiss" she shared with Aubrey O'Day on last year's Bravo's A-List Awards.

And last week, she told Joy Behar she'd vote Suze Orman for president.

Now, she'll play a lesbian activist on a winter episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.

TVGuide.com is reporting that Kathy is set to appear on Feb. 10, which was revealed via the show's producer, Neal Baer, on his Twitter.

Although most people know Griffin for her stand-up and comedic roles, she has played more serious parts (small and large) in shows like ER, The X-Files, Strong Medicine and Privileged.

We don't know much else yet, including what exactly Kathy's character is an activist for and how close she gets with Detective Benson, »

Kathy Griffin to Return to Life on The D-List!

10 November 2009 7:56 AM, PST | People.com - TV Watch | See recent People.com - TV Watch news »

In a decidedly A-list move, Kathy Griffin will return for a sixth season of her Bravo reality laugh-fest, Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List, her rep confirms to People. "Let's just say we are hoping the premiere episode will be Cher-tastic," Griffin says of her show, which documents the comedian's adventures in Hollywood, where she sometimes gets the star treatment and sometimes does not. In the last season, Kathy got lessons on how to be an A-lister from stars like Bette Midler, Paris Hilton and Rosie O'Donnell. In the new season, Kathy will continue traipsing around the globe with Team Griffin, her mother, a box of wine and maybe even Levi Johnston, her rep said. "Wasilla here we come!" Kathy says. Shooting of the 10-episode season gets under way in January. --Alexis Chiu Tell us: Are you excited for more Kathy and more D-List? What antics would you »

Bad luck 'O' the Irish: Apostrophe in name could get you thrown off flights in ID mix-up (IrishCentral)

5 November 2009 5:46 AM, PST | IrishCentral | See recent IrishCentral news »

Bill O'Reilly, Rosie O'Donnell and Maureen O'Hara could soon be thrown off U.S. flights under tough new airline rules. The reason? The Transportation Security Administration will soon insist on matching passengers’ boarding passes to their IDs - including any apostrophes hyphen and initials. The problem there is that most computer systems don't recognize apostrophes which means it's Bad Luck O' The Irish for people with an O' in their name - like half the Irish population. Once the new rules are in place, Mary O'Connor won't be flying unless her boarding pass says Mary OConnor. But it won't be Mary's fault. The airline systems can't handle Irish O'Names so they run the last name as OConnor. Which is not the same as the name on Mary's passport or driving licence. Irish Central founder and publisher Niall O'Dowd found this out the hard way when he was trying to book a flight to Atlanta. »

Rosie O'Donnell rises again to haunt Sirius Xm show

4 November 2009 11:02 AM, PST | AOL - TVSquad | See recent AOL - TVSquad news »

Rosie O'Donnell reminds me of a sexually transmitted disease.

I might have enjoyed my first experience that brought me in contact with her. But she's grown painfully irritating over the years, and I can't seem to get rid of her now. No matter what happens, she just keeps coming back to irritate me further -- leaving me to wonder what ever led me to welcome her irritation in the first place.

When O'Donnell proved too annoying even for The View, and then flamed out on her disastrous one-off variety show, I thought we'd seen the last of her. But it looks like we'll at least "hear" from her again, as she's moved away from the TV talk circuit and taken a gig hosting her own satellite radio talk show on Sirius Xm.

Week in Review: Jon & Hailey, Rosie & Angelina, Taylor & Taylor, Ryan & the Alleged Stalker...

31 October 2009 8:00 AM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Contrary to what the Michael Jackson concert film implies, this will never be it. We're used to mad happenings in Hollywood, which is just a hop, skip and a jump (or a half-hour in L.A. traffic) away from our door. We don't expect them downstairs in the lobby, though! Yet the week was capped off with one of Ryan Seacrest's more frightening fans getting busted on suspicion of felony stalking, literally right under our noses. And we thought we'd heard everything after Rosie O'Donnell said she almost hooked up with Angelina Jolie... 1. As we mentioned, a guy who copped last month to assaulting a Seacrest security escort and later went looking for Ryan at Kiis-fm's Burbank... »

Jane Lynch talks about being butch and hating bras

30 October 2009 9:00 AM, PDT | AfterEllen.com | See recent AfterEllen.com news »

Michael Musto says it best in his Village Voice interview with Jane Lynch: she's everywhere — and it's a good thing, too. I mean, we can't keep watching her as Joyce Wischnia on our L Word DVDs forever, no matter how great the scene where she proposes to Phyllis in the nude truly is.)

Lynch first popped up on our radar playing the hilarious butch dog handler Christy Cummings in Best in Show, a role that obviously wasn't much of a stretch for her.

Now she's part of the ensemble for Nora and Delia Ephron's Off-Broadway hit, Love, Loss and What I Wore, Musto asks her if she's replacing Rosie O'Donnell, to which Lynch says, "I know they're gonna give me the butch lesbian to play!"

 

It's because she does it so well, and says she's "very attracted to feminine women."

When asked if she's always been out, Lynch says:
