Grease: Review

You know you love it. It's tacky, loud and crude, and has far more to do with the '70s in which it was made than the late '50s in which it's set, but it's still an awful lot of fun. Adapted from the smash Broadway musical, it was originally planned as a cartoon; what they came up with comes pretty close. John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John star as summer lovers whose romance gets complicated once school starts in the fall. Read the complete review for Grease

American Idol Fifties night was... | Today's News: Our Take | 3/22/2006
American IdolFifties night was far kinder to the wannabes than Stevie Wonder night was last week. And the evening clearly belonged to Mandisa. Wow... just wow. A note to Paula Abdul: No woman wants to be compared to a horse. Paris thrived vocally on "Fever," but she's so young that the "vamp" thing didn't work so well for her. To quote the cinema classic and '50s-themed flick Grease, "she's too pure to be pink." For a minute I was so excited to see Live on stage doing "I Alone." But then I realized it was Chris, stopping once again in the '90s for inspiration instead of heading to the '50s like everyone else. He's always great, but I'm waiting for Simon to coax Chris out read more

They get the highest score for the evening: 50.7.Dave and Nancy: I'm not sure, but if you clocked them, I believe they may have performed the slowest spins in recorded history. A definite letdown from last week. Score: 47.4.Bruce and Tai: These Olympians were idolized in the '70s. Sir CrankyPants says they're not as fit as they were back read more
