Recap: Real Housewives of New York, The Jerry Springer Edition

Wow, new girl Kristen Taekman said it best on the “Real Housewives of New York” this week when she officially declared Ramona “white trash.” Maybe she’s not as dumb as BravoTV made her out to be at first. At least she’s perceptive. “I was the first one to defend her on this ‘white trash’ comment

I, Frankenstein Blu-ray Review

Although it features a fast pace and some great action sequences, I, Frankenstein fails to live up to the potential of the film’s story elements.
