Have A Great Summer And Stay Sweet, You Guys!

Dear You Guys,

So for the past 15 months I've gotten to help plan and launch a totally unique new website, working with a team made up entirely of people who were already my friends on an idea so crazy it just did work. I got to write about almost anything I wanted and share editorship of the site with a writer who makes me laugh out loud every day. And it was my full time job. Not a bad deal!

Now it's time to move on to write for other sites, including my six year old blog lindsayism.com, where they always have to take me back because they is just me. But I have a few people to thank first!

I Call FAKE On The Pineapple Express Alternate Ending

thumbnail: I Call FAKE On The Pineapple Express Alternate Ending

Ooh, how ballsy, to call "Fake!" on this Pineapple Express "alternate ending" scene that came out this week on the heels of the DVD release last Tuesday. Anyone who has seen the actual, totally genius/meta/awesome last scene will immediately recognize this for the DVD extra it was filmed to be. It's the intentional "you know how I know you're gay?" of PE. But anything Pineapple Express is fun, and this has no real spoilers, so:

The It's A Wonderful Life Lost Ending

If you watch the Best Movie Ever this holiday season and are left with a twinge of regret that mean old Mr. Potter never got what was coming to him, Saturday Night Live had the answer twenty years ago, and Hulu has it now:

Are there It's A Wonderful Life geeks? Because if so, I am one. There's just one problem: "Clarence at the bank said..." Clarence doesn't work at the bank, Clarence is the angel who got his wings because of George. Silly SNL. (Via Claire Zulkey.)

Grey's Anatomy: Dr. Erica Hahn's Alternate Ending

thumbnail: Grey's Anatomy: Dr. Erica Hahn's Alternate Ending

We don't really cover Grey's Anatomy here, so we totally ignored the still-growing brouhaha over Brooke Smith, who played hard-nosed Dr. Erica Hahn until she was abruptly fired without a real explanation from the show. Lots of people think it's because ABC suits were uncomfortable with her lesbian relationship with Callie (known to now-outraged fans as "Callica.") Whatever the reasons, it was an odd decision to do it so abruptly. ANYWAY, this weekend I watched Dr. Hahn's final show and final scene, and found it to be really lazy and anticlimactic. This is a ridiculous soap opera! A main character's departure should be more dramatic! So, using my rapier-like video editing skills, I recut the final scene according to what I think the viewers wanted to see: more melodrama! More belabored metaphor!:
