VIDEO Real Housewives of Orange County Season 6 reunion preview

ByAsa Hawks

Season 6 of The Real Housewives of Orange County had more cat fights than a New York City alley way! Usually these shows tend to naturally divide into two teams during the season (Team Bethenny vs. Team Jill for example) but this season of RHOC had enough teams to create a March Madness bracket! The result was a drama-filled melee of vitriol and front-stabbing that was as unpleasant as it was mesmerizing. Keep reading to watch a jaw-dropping preview clip of the season finale that had Andy Cohen declaring on twitter that he thought “it was our best OC reunion in 6 seasons. Really dramatic, tense, powerful, and emotional.”

ByStarcasm Staff

Jon Stewart used to visit Anthony Weiner at his house near the beach in Delaware when they were young college-aged whippersnappers, and as everyone knows Jon’s political views tend to align with the Democratic Party, so many thought he wouldn’t touch the Weiner Gate story with a (ahem!) ten foot pole.

ByRuby Turpin

As if great acting, great stories, and amazing music weren’t enough to make HBO’s Treme (now in its second season) worth watching, the producers have stirred a culinary plot line into the show and hired celebrity chef extraordinaire, Anthony Bourdain to help write it for them.

Did Rulon Gardner break his contract to Skip the Biggest Loser finale?

When Rulon Gardner left The Biggest Loser abruptly in the middle of the season even though he seemed to be poised to win the competition, I wasn’t as surprised as a lot of folks out there.

But, Rulon’s decision not to show up for the Biggest Loser finale feels different. Rude, even. So, why did he do it?
