		<description><![CDATA[Among NBC's new shows for the vaginally-inclined: "Up All Night" with Christina Applegate, the Whitney Cummings sitcom and Spielberg's Broadway drama "Smash."]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>NBC wants some lady action, but not the awesome kind that involves sex with hot ladies. Judging by their recent round of pick-ups, NBC is skewing more towards the vaginally-inclined viewer in 2011-2012. Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s been picked up:</p>
<p>- &#8220;Up All Night&#8221; is a single camera comedy, starring <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/genres-tv/sitcoms/married-with-children-cast/" target="_blank">Christina Applegate</a> as a working mother who never thought she&#8217;d be a mom, but guess what: she totally is. <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/bridesmaids/" target="_blank">Maya Rudolph</a> and <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/tv-news/will-arnett-to-receive-inevitable-paycheck-from-the-office/" target="_blank">Will Arnett</a> co-star, with Emily Spivey and <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/lorne-michaels-939/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Lorne Michaels</a> executive producing. Network executives are convinced that one day, Arnett will star in a ratings-generating sitcom. It has been foretold by the sitcom elders.</p>
<p>- <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/brett-ratner-get-spielbergs-table-scraps-the-39-clues/" target="_blank">Steven Spielberg</a> came up with the idea for &#8220;Smash,&#8221; a drama about a group of musical folk producing a <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/marilyn-monroe/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Marilyn Monroe</a> show on <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/broadway-223/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Broadway</a>. It&#8217;s been described as&#8221;<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/shows/glee' target='_blank'>Glee</a>&#8221; for adults, so please keep it the hell away from me. Starring <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/actors-directors/red-headed-actresses/" target="_blank">Debra Messing</a> and <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/david-r-elliss-shark-movie-is-going-to-bite/" target="_blank">Katharine McPhee</a>, Spielberg co-wrote the pilot with Theresa Rebeck. I&#8217;ll tune into Spielberg&#8217;s <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/Video/kids-cry-about-aliens-in-5-minute-preview-of-spielbergs-falling-skies/" target="_blank">other show</a> instead.</p>
<p>- Based on her stand-up routine, <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/nbc-wants-to-be-funny-and-not-in-a-pitiful-way/" target="_blank">Whitney Cummings</a>&#8216; cleverly titled multi-camera comedy &#8220;<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/whitney/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Whitney</a>&#8221; is about the trials and tribulations of a young couple in a committed relationship. I&#8217;m guessing someone&#8217;s mother on that show will ask why they&#8217;re not married. <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/laughter/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Laughter</a> will then ensue.</p>
<p>- <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-lists/21-hottest-tv-and-movie-milfs-of-all-time/" target="_blank">Maria Bello</a> stars in &#8220;<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/prime-suspect/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Prime Suspect</a>,&#8221; a female NYC detective trying to &#8220;make it&#8221; in a male-dominated precinct. We&#8217;re all rooting for you, girlfriend. It&#8217;s based on a British mini-series starring <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-review/review-arthur/" target="_blank">Helen Mirren</a>.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I find his attitude refreshingly European.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/Video/apatow-lifts-the-veil-on-bridesmaids-trailer/" target="_blank"><em>Bridesmaids</em></a> isn&#8217;t through trying to convince you that it&#8217;s actually secretly funny. A new <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/international-trailer-532/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>international trailer</a> has begun to swim its way across the pond and this one plays to <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/jon-hamm-too-close-to-death-to-play-superman/" target="_blank">Jon Hamm</a>&#8216;s strengths&#8230; being a total dick to women.</p>
<p>In this trailer, we see Hamm do his careful best to dismiss <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/kristen-wiig-45/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Kristen Wiig</a> after a night of hot, steamy, bra-on sex (Hollywood&#8217;s favorite kind). But we shouldn&#8217;t <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/rush/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>rush</a> to judge. Perhaps he just needs to fart really badly. Sometimes that happens to fellas. Especially if they aren&#8217;t careful about what they eat the night before. Damn you, Nestle Flipz!!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Follows the same plot as all “outrageous wedding” movies.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/bridesmaids' target='_blank'>bridesmaids</a>-movie-gals.jpg&#8221;><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-201447" title="bridesmaids-movie-gals" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/bridesmaids-movie-gals.jpg" alt='' width="600" height="<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/300/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>300</a>&#8221; /></a></p>
<p>The work print screening of <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/Video/apatow-lifts-the-veil-on-bridesmaids-trailer/" target="_blank"><em>Bridesmaids</em></a> played well at <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/sxsw-504/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>SXSW</a>, but I wasn’t into it. It’s actually the first movie of the festival I haven’t liked, so it probably feels like a harsher letdown.</p>
<p>It opens funny with <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/annie/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Annie</a> (<a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/how-to-train-your-dragon-actress-kristen-wiig/" target="_blank">Kristin Wiig</a>) having outrageous sex with Ted (Jon Hamm). Annie speaks in the stream of consciousness rambling that Wiig peppers with humor each time she adds a phrase. Once her best friend Lillian (Maya Rudolph) gets engaged, it becomes the typical wedding movie.</p>
<p>All the other <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/bridesmaids/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>bridesmaids</a> are contrived one-dimensional types. Rita (Wendi McLendon-Covey) complains about her obnoxious sons and husband.  Becca (Ellie Kemper) is the lovey dovey newlywed. Megan is a butch type. Helen (Rose Byrne) is just so perfect it drives Annie crazy.</p>
<p>Wiig pretty much stops doing the Kristin Wiig thing in order to serve a generic, clichéd plot. She does a dance when Officer Rhodes pulls her over but stops the random phrases and tones down the physicality, so you don’t get a Kristin Wiig movie after all.</p>
<p>The big problem with the premise is that jealousy is not funny. Helen outshines Annie’s wedding plans and the film follows the same plot as all “outrageous wedding” movies. At the engagement toast, the dress fittings, the <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/bachelorette/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>bachelorette</a> party and bridal shower, Helen comes up with crazy plans that take over Annie’s sincere ones.</p>
<p>Helen’s manipulative usurping isn’t funny though. She has connections to a fancy dress shop. She wants to take the girls to Las Vegas. She has a fancy mansion with a fondue fountain. The only joke is that Annie is insecure that Helen’s more superficially impressive than she is.</p>
<p><em>Bridesmaids </em>might coast if it was just generic, but it drags out so long it forces you to work it out. Directo <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/paul' target='_blank'>Paul</a> Feig said that “work print” only meant they had color timing and sound issues to polish. He should really consider taking 30 minutes out, because there’s so much plot. At a certain point you realize while Annie’s working out her relationship with Office Rhodes, hey, they still have to have a wedding to wrap this sucker up.</p>
<p>I like Kristin Wiig a lot. I think her physicality is phenomenal and her attitude is sweet. She doesn’t seem to make jokes at anyone’s expense. She just enjoys being silly. <em>Bridesmaids </em>doesn’t feel like her, and she wrote it herself!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The first trailer for Judd Apatow's first foray into "you go, girl," comedy is here.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Judd Apatow&#8217;s first foray into &#8220;you go, girl!,&#8221; comedy <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/bridesmaids-poster-the-romcom-gods-are-smiling/" target="_blank"><em>Bridesmaids</em></a> has its first trailer and it looks&#8230; okay. <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/kristen-wiig-45/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Kristen Wiig</a> has proven her comedic chops with her roles in <em>The 40-Year Old Virgin</em> and <em>MacGruber</em> and by making repetitive noises on &#8220;SNL.&#8221; I&#8217;m happy to see her stepping into the lead.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The supporting cast looks funny too. You&#8217;ve got the fat one, the neurotic one, the horny one, and the bitch. Just like at your office. More importantly though, this trailer features what every trailer should &#8212; tuxedo-clad yawning puppies. Can we re-do the DGA Awards?</p>
