Episode Report Card Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT For Heterosexual Morons

The next bit of the interview does involve Charmed, so I feel compelled to relate it, despite the fact the imagery involved threatens to make me violently ill. Seems that once on the set, Miss Doherty took a spill while chasing after that week's guest demon. "I was wearing a G-string, and you know a G-string -- things shift in there. If you're gonna wear a G-string, you've got to really make sure that stuff is set in the proper place at all times. I flashed everybody behind the camera…" Thanks for sharing, Shannen. Up to now, I thought only drag queens had to tuck their business. I appreciate you disabusing me of that notion. Oh, and ick. Romando leaps on this bit of lascivious nastiness to carry the underwear discussion a bit further, noting, "Surprisingly, many women aren't huge fans of 'the string.'" Thankfully, I've never had the "pleasure" of wearing one myself, but I am capable of imagining the discomfort involved. So, try wearing one yourself, Tony, before you make "surprising" observations like that one. And shut up while you're at it, you slimy, smarmy creep. Miss Doherty, to her credit, notes simply that, while some women do not seem to mind skimpy underthings, she appreciates more comprehensive support. Tell that to the Charmed wardrobe mistress the next time she straps your braless ass into the Paisley Tit Sling of Poor Taste. On to more "Shannen's a bad girl -- no, really, she is" nonsense. She reveals one of her favorite pastimes is to pull "drive-bys" and "stakeouts" at the houses of her ex-boyfriends, which she does after gathering a couple of gals from her posse into her Mercedes and swinging by the 7-Eleven for some Twinkies and Coke. I'd tell her to grow up and look into more creative ways to blow off steam, but such advice would fall on deaf ears, apparently, as she's convinced herself all women indulge in such behavior, given women are "pretty suspicious by nature." Romando takes this opportunity to generalize "men are liars by nature," and asks Miss Doherty to share some of the more outrageous lines she's received from her various male acquaintances. Her biggest peeve is pretty mild -- and pretty unbelievable: guys professing love after a week. She notes, correctly, that no one knows anyone well enough after a week to make such a claim, and terms such behavior "retarded." ["Um, okay. Didn't she marry Ashley Hamilton after having known him for, like, two weeks or something?" -- Sars] Romando reaches what I hope is the limit of his capacity for adolescent stupidity, using this statement to ask, "Speaking of retarded, you had an early role on Life Goes On where you played Corky's love interest. Did he grab your butt or get frisky?" Miss Doherty attempts to deflect this line of questioning, but Romando persists. "He didn't try to take you back to his twailer [sic]?" Miss Doherty notes only that Chris Burke "was a really sweet boy," and I pause to remove my eyeballs from my head to spray them with Lysol.
