Megan Hilty in New York City

Darlings, here are pictures of Megan Hilty, looking like a car show model, in NYC, shooting scenes for the second season of Smash. Megan Hilty films a scene with a car on the set of ‘Smash’ in New York City. Cute dress. Now, with fashion commentary aside, let’s discuss...

Checking in on “Smash”

So, a handful of people asked us what happened to our Smash post last week. Nothing happened to it. It doesn’t exist. We figured we were doing you all a service because yet another post from us about how we hate the direction of the show and don’t care about Julia’s...

Smash: Hell on Earth

Hey, remember when we said this, in the early days of Smash blogging, when the world was our oyster and anything seemed possible? “Smash is no less a fantasy world (by virtue not only of being a musical, but of just being a TV show) but the entire tale is structured around the things...

Smash: The Coup

Sometimes we long for the early days of serialized drama on the radio and TV. Not because we have an aversion to HD television but because sometimes, after watching a bloated, go-nowhere episode like this one, where all the most interesting things happened in the last 10 minutes, we find...

Smash: Workshop

Ten hours later and with a full night of sleep behind us, we still don’t quite know what to make of this episode. It felt like – and the writing pushed this quite hard – this was supposed to be the Big Moment; the point at which it all starts coming together, and considering...

“Smash” for ELLE

We love it when our little obsessions collide for us. Smash’s Katharine McPhee and Megan Hilty get the Joe Zee treatment in the latest issue of ELLE magazine.   Bottega Veneta Spring 2012 Collection Bottega Veneta Spring 2012 Collection Jason Wu Spring 2012 Collection Christian...

Smash: Chemistry

Apparently, no doesn’t mean no. We wish we could get past this, but the way they’re handling the Julia storyline is bothering us to the point of distraction. We’d like to think we’re not the type of viewer who confuses the characters on the screen with real people and...

Smash: Let’s Be Bad

We found our spirit guide among the cast of characters this week. It’s Derek, and please try to control your shock that we relate best to the most acerbic, sarcastic person in the story. Sure, he’s a bit of a jerk, but so far he’s the only person involved in the Marilyn...

Smash: The Cost of Art

Because we are so very analytical in that way that gets us crossed off cocktail party invite lists, we couldn’t help but stop and take the time to assess our reaction to this episode. Because – oh, didn’t we say? We LOVED this episode. One of the tightest single-episode...

Smash: Enter Mr. DiMaggio

Previously, on Smash: Now, the beauty of being a blogger is that you can convince yourself that people want to hear your opinion on all sorts of things. So let’s pretend everyone’s dying to hear what we think of Smash. Like many, we scoffed, rolled our eyes, and declared it a sad...
