Ragdoll’s Alex Blaggazine

My name is Alex Blagg, and I've read the whole Internet like four times.

You can email me at blaggblogg at gmail dot com.

This is my old blog. After that I ran Best Week Ever and Wonderwall. Now I'm in charge of celebrity programming at Buzz Media.

I have a Twitter, too.

You're the best.

Set Your Tivo’s Tonight for THE LEAGUE - THURSDAYS 10:30PM on FX.
I think this review from THE SALT LAKE CITY PAPER DESERET NEWS tells you more about the show than anything I could write.
“It’s astonishing that something this downright dirty could be on basic cable. “The League” is actually dirtier than most of the shows on HBO and Showtime.
A little more nudity and a few f-bombs, and this would be the dirtiest show on TV.Actually, even without the full-frontal nudity and f-bombs this is certainly one of the dirtiest shows on TV.
 
It’s no exaggeration to tell you that the dialogue in “The League” is actually more crude than the dialogue in pay-cable shows. The only show that even compares in terms of content is HBO’s sex-therapy series, “Tell Me You Love Me.”There are so many examples of crude sexual terms in “The League” that it’s, well, unbelievable.
In the first 45 seconds of Thursday’s premiere, there are multiple uses of a crude term that I can’t even allude to in a family newspaper — and, believe it or not, it’s what a father is saying to his infant. And there’s a bit of nudity. In the first 45 seconds. Not just talking about it, either. Proving that you can be graphic without showing body parts, there’s a sex scene in the pilot that — once again — I can’t even begin to describe for you because it’s so crude. But the show makes it crystal clear what’s going on beneath the sheets.
What’s even more astonishing is that “The League” involves children. Not just the danger that children might watch the show, but children in the show.
Hey, I watch TV for a living. I watch the shows on the pay-cable networks. And my jaw literally dropped watching the first couple of episodes of “The League.”
The next time some politician proposes regulating basic cable content the way broadcast TV is regulated, clips of “The League” will be front-and-center.”

I’m really loving the Urban Outfitters men’s winter fashion line.

Oh, my god!

Nothing more can be said.

Look, it’s not weird or gross or funny if you just use it to practice kissing Edward Cullen when you’re on the go and can’t use your full-size plastic cast Cullen mouth.

Here’s a nice chair upholstered with sassy text message abbreviations. I don’t even know what all of them mean, but I definitely feel funnier when I sit in it.

I’m no fancy art expert, but I think this might be some kind of “comment” on “America.” Also, I think it would lovely in my foyer.

I was thinking of writing and making a movie, but I only want to do it if I can guarantee that the poster will be designed by whoever made this one. Anyone know how to get in touch?

Ladies and gentlemen, your President is a robot.  Or a wax sculpture.  Maybe a cardboard cutout.  All I know is no human being has a photo smile this amazingly consistent.

On Wednesday, the Obamas hosted a reception at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, during which they stood for 130 photographs with visiting foreign dignitaries in town for the UN meeting.  The President has exactly the same smile in every single shot.  See for yourself — the pictures are up on the State Department’s flickr.  And, of course, compressed above into 20 seconds for your viewing pleasure.
