Real World

Well, here we go again Gasmii. I just want to clarify one quick thing regarding my attitude toward our resident Cliche. I realize that for many people, depression is a real problem and it can be hard to get motivated. However, my problem with her is not the lack of ambition. Hell, I graduated from [...]


Shear Genius

What’s up, people? You know how Cameltoe always ends each episode this season with her silly little tagline, “Hair is impotent“? Well, we all know she’s really trying to say “important” but the letter R just isn’t her friend. Anyhow, on tonight’s episode of Shear Genius we’re going to be reminded once again that the [...]


American Idol

I was seriously hoping this would be the week that Simon would rip off his shirt, climb up on stage, makeout with Gaycrest, then cover his hairy moobs with baby oil and work a pole to the tune of “Pour Some Sugar On Me.”  To my dismay, this did not occur.  Want to find out [...]


Millionaire Matchmaker

Hello, friends! How’s your love life going? Are you rich and confused about what set of private parts you’d like to play with? Were you raised in the middle of nowhere and thus harbor a “strange is bad!” mentality? No? Well, then you’re better off than our two friendly millionaires this week. Patti’s gonna hook [...]


Shear Genius

Hello again hairgomaniacs! I know that I have been bitching a lot about how this show has taken a steep swirl into the toilet because of the crappy hosting (and speaking) abilities of Cameltoe, and that none of the guest judges have been remotely famous (or interesting) to anyone outside of the hair industry, and [...]


Shear Genius

Happy Post-Oscars, everyone! Could you all believe how bad the hair was at this year’s show? I don’t know if it was the rain, or if Sarah Jessica Parker was trying to look all freshly-fucked on purpose to combat those nasty rumors about her and Matthew Broderick’s marriage being on the rocks, but Tabatha would [...]


Dancing w/ The Stars

With the scripted drama exciting reality show known as The Bachelor over for now, ABC has got a whole lot of time to fill….so you know what that means….it’s time for Dancing With Obscurity!!!! Buy one recapper, get one half price!!!


Shear Genius

Hello again friends! You know, every time I go to my local salon these days I always ask the stylist whose chair I land in if they watch reality TV, and in particular if they are fans of Shear Genius. If they clutch their chest, gasp and start in on how fucked up last night’s [...]


Shear Genius

Welcome back, friends! I’m so glad you’ve rejoined me, because I want to tell you about an Incident that happened to me this week. I was driving home from work, minding my own business, and lip-synching flawlessly to SWV’s “Right Here/Human Nature” as I zipped along through traffic. Eventually I noticed a car keeping pace [...]


Shear Genius

Hello friends. Let’s talk for a minute about that friend you have (and yes, of course behind her back… duh, it’s called manners)… you know the one I mean, she is tall, thin, good-looking, has a great job, awesome wardrobe, cool car, sweet house, plenty of cash, a smokin’-hot body and is usually surrounded by [...]


Shear Genius

Hello hair hoppers! My name is J-Mo, I am a Top Chef fan, and once upon a time I did a Google search on the words “Lisa”, “Fernandes” and “bitch”. One of the results that was kicked back to me was housed inside a recap on this very site (TVGasm.com) written by the fabulous LoLo [...]


American Idol

Hello, my dearies!!!  You must have been good little troublemakers this week, because you get two HappyHousewife recaps for the price of one!  Whee!  Tonight, Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you, American Idol: The Denver Auditions.  I’m super excited for this one, because Denver is a city near and dear to my heart.  It’s where [...]


American Idol

Hello again everybody! My name is J-Mo, and I’ve just breezed in for a few minutes to chat with you all and make a confession. Like many Americans, I made sure to sit down and pay attention to the President’s State Of The Union Address last night. In fact, I took copious notes on it. [...]


American Idol

Disclaimer: As far as I know, no whores were harmed in the filming of these auditions. But with a word play like that, how could I resist? What’s up, lovies???!!! I’m fresh off a round of White Russians (“Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.”) and am ready to do this [...]


VH1

This week on Fantasia For Real: we see what the world would be like if Lil Wayne was paid only in bong hits and food stamps, if Madea was really a woman, and what Fantasia’s life was like when she was really a star…. I was famous, I swear!!!!


Launch My Line

Happy new year, Gasmii! Hope you shooed away 2009 and welcomed 2010 in a truly spectacular fashion. I pulled a Feather Earrings and sage-smudged my person and my dwelling to chase out the bad juju. Gotta say, it’s been a good year so far. Sure, it’s only been a week. So, wait, you’re reading this [...]


Launch My Line

Welcome back, all! I see you all loved (or loved to hate) the first episode of Bravo’s latest adventure. I know many of you were sad to see Dan JuJitsu go, but them’s the breaks in the fashion merchandising reality show biz. (By the way, even if it’s not pronounced “karate”, I think it’s a [...]


Launch My Line

What happens when you cross people who just barely want to be fashion designers because they’re bored Type A people who like to start hobbies and never finish them with people who ARE fashion designers already who apparently don’t have enough work even though they’re reported to be dressing big name doofuses? What do you [...]


The City

This week on the season finale of The Shitty: It took 9 whole episodes, but The City finally gets interesting. As interesting as this show can get, at least. And what makes this episode awesome? Awkward confrontations! Between Roxy and Kelly, and Olivia, Joe, and Erin! Yes, these people finally get to hash things out. [...]


The City

This week on The Shitty: Who’s ready for a heapin’ helpin’ of the same old crap?! You are! Erin and Olivia fight. About work. Specifically, pulling clothes for something. Just like the last episode. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that. Sensing [...]


Dancing w/ The Stars

This week on Dancing With The Stars: we are forced to find a way to go on after the sudden departure of Meth Face and Svetlana, who were the couple kicked off last week. Now even ABC is setting me up with the crackhead jokes. I love it.


The City

This week on The Shitty: Whit goes on a bad blind date with a d-bag; Roxy fights with another d-bag; Kelly has to call Whit out on her crap again; and Olivia and Erin don’t get along. Did you guys know that? That they don’t get along? News to me. Also, for reasons I can [...]


Dancing w/ The Stars

This week on Dancing With The Stars: the final five “stars” get down to business with two dances each. Apparently, their business involves shiny plastic vaginas.


The City

This week on The Shitty: Everyone heads to Miami for some fashion week thingamajig. Olivia doesn’t really do her job, but Erin sort of gets blamed for it. Roxy and some random guy leave Whit at some club, and they fight about it at work the next day, which makes Kelly not-so happy. Which makes [...]


DietTribe

I got my flippy-floppies! Episode 6: Starting Over This week on DietTribe, we celebrate Stephanie’s 40th (on a motherf***ing boat) and Rita goes through some tough economic times. It’s a time of awakening, renewal. (Is it the makeover show I’m salivating for? no? DAMN IT.)


DietTribe

This week’s episode of DietTribe is called “Intervention.” While I wish that meant we got to see some jerky footage of these women spazzing out while their families read sobby letters to them, it’s not. It’s more about intervening in how the women relate their weight loss to their families and manage their time. Boooooring.


The City

This week on The Shitty: In what is the most boring episode of this show I’ve ever seen, which for this show, is saying A LOT — Whit meets the WASPiest guy of the entire WASP history; and Olivia and Erin go to a party and Erin yells at Olivia for possibly no reason. That’s [...]


DietTribe

Did you miss this last week? Ugh. This is the true story (true storyyyyy!) of five friends, picked to lose weight together and ogle a hot trainer, to find out what happens when people stop eating like crap….and start getting real. Or, according to the title of this week’s episode of DietTribe, it’s time for [...]
