DVD Review: Rugrats: The Complete Series - 26-Disc Set
Over 67 hours of old-school animation, this set marks the first time ever that all nine seasons of the venerable '90s-era favorite have been collected together. Announcement: Words on Bathroom Walls Due on Home Video November 17
"If you can't trust your mind, trust your heart," as the teen romance story arrives on Digital on November 10 and Blu-ray, DVD, On Demand a week later. Directed by Thor Freudenthal. Blu-ray Review: The Kitchen (2019)
Not sure went wrong here. Oscar-nominated screenwriter making her directorial debut. Cult fave comic miniseries as source material. Three great stars - Melissa McCarthy, Tiffany Haddish, Elisabeth Moss - headlining. Blu-ray Review: 10 Minutes Gone
A heist thriller with two marquee names but not enough thrills. Bruce Willis is really a supporting player here to Michael Chiklis. Should've been more interesting. Holiday Gift Alert! Now on DVD: Barry: The Complete First Season
Double Emmy winner (for star/writer/director/creator Bill Hader and co-star Henry Winkler) this HBO Original Series is funny and quirky.

Soapbox Therapy: Did Delusional Disorder Keep Amanda Knox Unjustly Locked Up?

My fantasy of sitting down with Mignini to assess him for a weakened mental state will likely not become reality, at least for now.

Soapbox Therapy: Kate Gosselin Is Finally Off TV

Holy horrid and emotionally scarring parenting, I feel sick. I'm not interested in bashing Kate Gosselin as a human being, but I really would love the opportunity to shake her, kindly, and say a few words.

Does Scarlett Johansson Need Approval to Prove She's Hot?

When did knowing you're hot go so devastatingly out of style while constantly trying to prove you're hot has become the new black?

Child Stars: If It's Not One Thing, It's Your Mother

When I see ten-year-old high fashion models like Thylane Loubry Blondeau or reality TV stars like Toddlers in Tiaras' case study Eden Wood, I often wonder: what kind of emotional turmoil does one experience after reaching one's supposed career peak before having one's first menstrual period?

The Bachelorette Finale: Life's A Bitch And So Is Your Sister

In the end, Ashley found true love with JP, which for many viewers is astounding given the personal self-hatred we witnessed all season coming from Ash. She allowed her past to determine her present over and over again during the season as she watched men walk out on her just like her father did.

UK Bans America's Sweetheart

There's a part of me that can't help but appreciate my right to not have my head messed with on a massive level everywhere I turn and every magazine I look at...

Spoiler Alert: Gene Simmons Has Baggage

If Simmons was hoping to stand out as a rebel I would have suggested he ditch the baggage statement and gone with something more like "I'm a whore among all whores." It's a more specific descriptor. But there's no going back now. Simmons’ baggage is what Tweed wants.

Flipping Out: I Have Questions For Jeff Lewis

Maybe one day I’ll sit down with Jeffery Lewis, the man whose perfectionist propensities gifts viewers with a new understanding of the beauty of vulnerability. Maybe one day we’ll sit down over a perfect cup of coffee...and I’ll ask him my questions.

Charlie Sheen Plays A Psycho...Therapist

Thank goodness for Charlie Sheen, who is set to play an ex-jock who becomes an anger management counselor with, of course, colossal anger issues of his very own. Winning?

Casey Anthony, Heidi Montag: Soul Sickness and its Many Manifestations

Before judging, before deciding, before pointing the finger at anyone else, ask yourself if you were to treat others in the same way you treat yourself, would society be safe?

Casey Anthony: Where Evil Comes From

My belief system around "evil" is likely the reason I feel so passionate about certain topics, news stories, and comments about people in the media and otherwise. It's also, I suspect, why I have yet to share my opinions on the Casey Anthony trial.

Still Chasing Diana: Newsweek's Foul Play

A healthy and sophisticated remembrance of Princess Diana’s would never have included a curiosity about who she would have become, but rather, a celebration of who she in fact was.

Amber Portwood Deserves Our Support

A suicide attempt is a cry for help, so I refuse to respond to what Portwood has been through with anything but love and support. So Amber, this is my message to you, I hope it finds you one day...

The Bachelorette: Mental Health Masochism

I want to jump through the TV and hug this poor sweet self-loathing girl who needs support so desperately. Sometimes, like a frat boy watching a football game, I fantasize that she just might be able to hear my screams. Just because someone doesn't reject you, it doesn't therefore mean they accept you!

Dear Marriage: Hold On Tight, We're Sending Back-Up

From the bottom of my heart, I'm really sorry the straight community in general has done such a stellar job screwing up your institution.

Doug Hutchison, the 51 year-old actor who has appeared in The Green Mile, Lost, and The X-Files, proudly and openly married 16 year-old aspiring country singer and former beauty queen, Courtney Alexis Stodden recently in La Vegas. Yes, 51 and 16.

The Bachelorette: The Best Horrible Show On TV

This season of The Bachelorette has it all. Issues of self-worth at their finest, clear results of a neglectful father, peter pan syndrome, co-dependence, narcissism, anger, jealousy, and even mask wearing--though that sadly only lasted two weeks. My psychological heaven can now be found on ABC every Monday night at 8pm. It's an absolutely and outrageously horrible show...but I literally can't stop watching.

Hurry Up, Your Royal Eggs Are Dying

The only thing worse than people wanting me to get pregnant so badly that they're willing to figure out how to use my DVR to passive aggressively let me know that I should act fast, would be to have a TLC special all about how producing a child is my duty. If I were Catherine Middleton, I would have a panic attack for sure.

Angelina Jolie: "No Make-Up" My Ass

If Angelina is really not wearing any make-up in this picture, I highly recommend you get that girl to a doctor stat because naturally grey smoky eyelids just can't be healthy.No make-up my ass.

The Bachelorette: Blake, The Angry Dentist/15-Year Old Girl

I've become obsessed with the mental health train wreck that is this season of The Bachelorette. It's like Emotional Health gold--I'm officially in a goddamn psychological commentary candy store. Someone pinch me.

Reality Check: Sex Addiction is Real

Weiner didn't even have sex with these people, he talked dirty to them over the computer and sent them pictures of his penis. Think that's healthy? Um no, he's sick.

Faking It Goes Beyond The Bedroom

No wonder sex and all its intricacies is one of the top reasons for divorce. Signing on the dotted line to get out is worth not having to open-up to get off.

The Bachelorette: Rejected Once, Shame On You - Rejected Twice, Shame On Me

Her father's actions, sadly, carved a map inside of her, so every time she meets a new man she unconsciously figures out a way to follow the road she knows to a tee, making sure she lands exactly where she always has. Rejected.

The Bachelorette: Bentley Williams, A Manipulative, Pathetic Excuse For A Man

My therapy-junkie self is officially and inappropriately excited following your blatant exhibit of douche-bag meets lack of mental stability, and though I've never looked forward to watching this idiotic show in the past, I must say, I'm downright giddy this time.
