If the CA primary election this week was any indication, there is a lot more work we’ll need to do for those in need, especially in LA. It’ll be organizations like Friendly House LA that offer “a safe, structured and supportive home-like environment that fosters recovery for women seeking recovery from alcohol and other substance abuse disorders,” that will pick up the crucial slack that either the LA city or county government might not be picking up.
As such, Rosie O’Donnell is putting on a big comedy benefit for Friendly House LA at The Fonda Theater on Sat. Jul. 16th at 8:30PM PT with a stellar line-up of Atsuko Okatsuka, Beth Lapides, Gina Yashere, and Kathy Griffin. Honestly, you might not see this particular collection of great female comedians crossing several generations ever again (i.e. don’t miss out). Tickets are on sale starting at $80 and you can (and should) go snag them here.

Frankie Shaw Takes Her Short Film “SMILF” Based on Her Life to Festival Circuit and Then All the Way to a Showtime Series Pick Up

Frankie Shaw is taking her story to the top of the mountain as what started as a short film made the rounds at Sundance and is now going to series with Rosie O’Donnell co-starring at Showtime.

If you’ve gotten a chance to see SMILF (a twist on the well worn slang term MILF), you’d know that this show, along with the return Twin Peaks, could signal a new wave of peak TV programming for Showtime.
