- Did any of you watch the first season of The Hour? The BBC America drama that takes place in 50s London and is like Mad Men but realer (and set at a TV news show, not an ad agency) and that has maybe the best love triangle in all of TV-dom? If so, then lookee! Here’s the first season two trailer. If not, then you must watch season one before season two starts so you can get in on the well-written, super well-acted, extra-British smarty-ness of it all. Truly, you are only cheating yourself if you don’t. (You Tube)

- This guide to distinguishing between the indistinguishable men of Nashville is very funny and right on point. (Vulture)
- We didn’t really think we were going to get to get through this election cycle without a Lena Dunham PSA for Obama, did we? It’s aimed at college-aged kids, and it’s actually very charming. (The Grindstone)
- Kurt and Courtney, the musical? (Flavorwire)

The margiela line is the most ugly clothing selection i have seen in a while. I think he made a bet with his buddy to see how many people would fall for that.
I don’t follow that line closely, though the shoes do seem to get mentioned a lot in the few places I read about fashion.
I liked some of these jackets. I also liked the clear wedge shoes, at least in theory, and maybe the flats.
Best/weirdest were the hair pendant necklacees, like you just had a girlfight and cut off someone’s pony and are wearing it as a trophy. Very silly. (Of course, officially I am against violence…) You can pick which hair color!
That “Men of Nashville” is hilarious. I can’t tell the different between Hayden Panettierre and the other blond girl who works at the café, except that one is “bad” and one is “good.”
getting “the hours” stat, and i may go to the mall (yikes) to pick up every piece of the margiela line. i loves it. if lena gets super skinny i will cry. meanwhile, she is the bomb!
I loved the first season, and I’m thrilled that it’s coming back. (plus my secret claim to fame is that I met Romola Garai a few years ago, and she’s as lovely as her character)
The Vulture piece is hilariously true. They left out the producer character, who’s another dead ringer for Deacon. Regardless, I’m enjoying the show as a guilty pleasure; the music is great, and I’m not generally a country fan.

LOVED The Hour — so glad it is coming back!!
