Josh v. Josh

I've had a major "future crush" on Josh Hutcherson (the kid from Bridge to Terabithia) for quite a while. I knew someday he'd be super hot and super legal. And that day has come! Huzzah! Well, it's almost here - October 12 and counting. He is twinsies with Josh Hopkins (name twin alert!!) who, depending on the role, is either totally sexy or totally repulsive. His poor, simpleton, every-man in SwingTown? Repulsive. His cocky, emotionally-unavailible, playboy in Cougar Town? Sexxxxxy. But maybe that says more about me than it does about him...

At any rate, Josh Jr. is headed for big things. His next movie, The Kids are Alright, with fellow hot young thing, Mia Wasikowska (Alice in Wonderland) and always hot middle-aged thing, Mark Ruffalo, looks awesome. Check out the trailer here. And check out my countdown clock to Josh's 18th birthday here.

Lost and Found

In the words of Carole King, "now and forever" Lost will be my favourite show - stamped it, no erasies. I am currently stockpiling happy thoughts to combat the ineveitable depression when it's all over. Aside from the amazing story lines and foxy actors (the scene with Kate and Sawyer in the Polar Bear cage makes From Here to Eternity look positively Amish), I love Lostbecause the show has given a helping hand to manys a (enjoy the pun) lost actor. But definitely my fave so far has been Chip from Kate & Allie. When I saw his pudgy little face running out of the jungle, my heart melted. Three cheers for gainful employment!

Other notable cameos (and before you get your Dharma panties in a twist, I know many of these actors have worked since their more popular shows):

1) William Sanderson - From "Hi I'm Larry, this is my brother Darryl and this is my other brother Darryl" fame.

2) Jeff Fahey - Not just another pretty Lawnmower Man.

3) Sheila Kelley - the hearing man's Marlee Matlin and Lost's version of Tina Fey.

4) Fisher Stevens - I bet Fisher thought the world had forgotten him (no doubt Michelle Pfeiffer wishes she could forget her first marriage to him).

5) Karen Allen - no, she hasn't shown up yet, but if Damon Lindelof has any heart, he'll cast the former Indiana Jones hottie in the series finale.

6) But the greatest one of all, is of course, Matthew "Is there life after Party of Five?" Fox.
