Live Free or Die Hard premieres Tuesday, December 1st at 7pm e/p

John McClane stops cyber terrorists? Sure, I guess that’s a plot. I’ve never seen this movie but with a cast that includes not just Bruce Willis but also Justin Long and Timothy Olyphant, I feel kinda compelled to watch.

Deck the Halls premieres Thursday, December 3rd at 8:00pm e/p

Danny DeVito, Matthew Broderick, Kristin Davis and Kristin Chenoweth start in this movie which I’ve never heard of. It involves neighbors competing over Christmas decoratings. And maybe aliens.

Spider-Man 3 premieres Thursday, December 10th at 7:00pm e/p

Spiders, goblins and a Sandman – oh my!? Toby Maguire, Kirstin Dunst, James Franco and Thomas Haden Church are in this blockbuster movie.

Firehouse premieres Saturday, December 19th at 3:30pm e/p

A firehouse adopts a lost dog who turns out to be Rexxx – a famous Hollywood dog. The dog and a young kid help make the firehouse better. These are exactly the kinds of holiday memories I have.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS MARATHON airs on Saturday, December 19th from 12:30pm – 3:30pm

FX will be airing Christmas episodes from shows like The Bernie Mac Show, Malcolm in the Middle and That ‘70s Show.

Night at The Museum CHRISTMAS EVE/CHRISTMAS DAY MARATHON airs on Thursday, December 24th from 6:30pm to 2:00am e/p and Friday, December 25th from 7:00am to 7:30pm

You’ll have eight chances to watch Night at the Museum. If you miss all of those chances, then I’m guessing you really don’t care about seeing this movie.

I haven’t followed this show very closely in a long, long while. I personally miss Lana and Lex (not together, just on the show). And I always liked Clark and Lana, so it’s hard for me to see Lois and Clark together even though I know that’s canon to Superman. It just doesn’t feel like it can ever feel canon to this particular show. Yikes.

Eliza Dushku arriving to tape "The Late Show with David Letterman" October 2009

Dollhouse star Eliza Dushku was on “The Late Show with David Letterman” this October. I’m loving Dollhouse, and I always love Dushku. But what don’t I love? This almost stylish look. I mean, the one-handed glove is just ridiculous and asking for trouble. Does she think she’s honoring Michael Jackson? His was sparkly. Anyway. The dress definitely needs the statement necklace there, but somehow it’s does not work. The dress color is a soft color, and to make up for that Eliza decided to cover every other aspect of herself in black. She still looks almost naked. The entire thing is almost a mess. But just almost. The hair saves it.

Gwen Stefani as the Glamour cover girl

I may not have loved the look styled for Gwen Stefani on the recent cover of Glamour, but I have an undeniable love for her anyway. It’s difficult to pick what my favorite Stefani songs are, but all of them put me in a good mood. That’s the perk of pop music. I think my favorite Gwen Stefani song would have to be Rich Girl featuring Eve. Even the music video for that song is amazing. “If I was rich girl (na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na nah)” – it’s just so catchy, you know? Gwen Stefani ring tones perk me up no matter who’s calling me.

It’s virtually impossible to hear, “A few times I’ve been around that track” without someone (or yourself) responding with, “So it’s not just gonna happen like that! Cause I ain’t no hollaback girl. I ain’t no hollaback girl!” That, of course, is the Stefani song Hollaback Girl. And it’s another gem of a song. I have What You Waiting For? (from Love.Angel.Music.Baby) on my iPod for when I want to work it on the treadmill.

Classic No Doubt songs include Rock Steady (Rock Steady), Spiderwebs (Tragic Kingdom), Just a Girl (Tragic Kingdom), Don’t Speak (Tragic Kingdom), Ex-Girlfriend (Return of Saturn), and Simple Kind of Life (Return of Saturn). I remember the first time someone introduced me to the Tragic Kingdom album at a sleepover. It felt like a revelation. So if you know any young girls who haven’t been introduced to Gwen Stefani yet, do them a favor and clue them into her. You’ll have good karma!

Gwen Stefani : The Sweet Escape

1) When Kristin Chenoweth won her Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy (Pushing Daisies - RIP!) she began thanking people only to mention, “I’m unemployed now, so I’d like to be on Mad Men,” she said. “I also like The Office and 24.” Us too, Kristin! And we’ve love to see her on any of those, especially The Office.  Watching her cry during her acceptance speech actually makes ME a little teary. Oh, man!

2) The red dresses! From Hayden Panettiere to Blake Lively, starlets wore red gowns that were drop dead gorgeous. That’s why you have to watch the pre-show to start oogling the fashion right away. Pick up one of those free Sprint phones and get texting!

3. Dr Horrible (Neil Patrick Harris) from Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog hijacking the awards! He called us couch monkeys! As he sings, Captain Hammer (Nathan Fillion) stands up for TV. And then we saw Felicia Day!

4. Joss Whedon won an Emmy. This? This makes me cry happy tears. “Thank you, we are honored to accept the award for most incomprehensible category,” he joked. Another small gem quote in his short speech: “The greatest expression of rebellion is joy.”

In fact, the beguiling lyrics of her songs greet your ears as though they were tiny pieces of a bird nest which may have inadvertently (though fortuitously)  fallen out along her passing. Rather than let vulnerability cause her to blush, she simply gives a knowing smile, hoping you will find a way to appreciate and add the words to your own nest of thoughts. As a singer and songwriter, she is here to share with us. And what  she has to offer is a splendidly-crafted delight.

Her voice is as strong as a siren’s beckoning call, and as sweet as the angels in your most private moments of longing and reverie. Her lyrics are advocating ambassadors that honor the spirit within the most tender and poignant of feelings. After listening to her album,  a sense of hope is hard to deny.

Bri-anne’s debut album will be released on September 29th, 2009.

“So we throw all our cards on the table
Instead of counting birds on the wire
While all the kings horses and all the kinds men
Keep drawing their lines in the sand” – We All Fall Down ; Bri-anne Swan
