As the Spice Girls once said, “Girl power!”
In addition to hiring more female stars, “Saturday Night Live” has increased its writing staff’s estrogen levels. Comedienne Jessi Klein has joined the show, resulting in a supposed total of six female “SNL” writers.

‘Gilmore Girls’ Movie: Oy with the Poodles Already!
Who knew that four words could drive people crazy?
“Gilmore Girls” creator Amy Sherman-Palladino is keeping mum about the last four words she planned her characters to say in the finale.
The Gilmore girls never got to utter them since Sherman-Palladino left the show before the final season aired.

ABC’s New Show, ‘Eastwick,’ Weaves Its Spell
Spoilers ahead. You’ve been warned.
When the clock strikes 10 on Wednesday nights, I catch “Eastwick” on ABC. The show centers on three women (Rebecca Romjin, Lindsay Price and Jaime Ray Newman) who are discovering that they’re witches — kind of like “Charmed” with a “Practical Magic” vibe.
I thought it would be worthwhile since I’ve noticed a [...]

News that Will Make You Giddy with ‘Glee’
FOX’s new TV show, “Glee,” definitely lives up to its name. Its cast not only has to act, but sing.
Even with that in mind, it came as a surprise when I found out that Matthew Morrison (the glee club’s director and school’s Spanish teacher) used to be in the boy band, LMNT.
EW.com also lists where you may have [...]
