So NoTORIous

I remember reading that NBC passed on it, but that's the only one I heard. I want to see it! I'm hoping it's one of those that gets shipped to DVD soon after the first season's run.

This show has really grown on me. I didn't care much for Tori previously but she does a really good job here. I've read that a lot of it is actually based on her life. She was basically raised by her nanny. Loni is perfect as her mother. She has the same weird boobs that Tori does.

Two good episodes last night. The one with the plastic surgeon was the better of the two.

Loni Anderson was hilarious. She plays passive-agressive-b*tchy very well.

I agree, the plastic surgeon one was great. So many good lines including "Awww, Donna Martin graduates!" and "Well, announcing that you're dating a plastic surgeon is just open to too many jokes like 'Tori dating a plastic surgeon? That's like Liz Taylor dating a guy who makes bacon cheeseburgers.' " or something like that.

I just discovered this show yesterday and I love it! Who knew Tori Spelling could be so funny? I also like that she can laugh at herself and that she "get's it" when it comes to how people think of her. I wonder if her mother is really as mean as she is portrayed to be on the show.

How many episodes have there been? I only watched the little marathon they had on yesterday.

Oh my god, that makes me wonder too. You think she could be estranged from her by chance?

"A macaroni necklace? Now Toto, you know I don't wear starches."

There was a rumor right as the show premiered that Kiki threatened to sue Tori for the way she's portrayed in the show. It was the Ebay room mocking that really got her pissed. Last I heard, both her parents were not talking to her because of the show, but that could just be rumor for publicity.

I love how Aaron Spelling is just always a speaker crooning, "Hello Angel!" with the Charlie's Angels theme song in the background. If I were her family, I'd be happy she's actually doing something more creative than plastic surgery and homewrecking.

The only episode I watched in entirety was the one with the massage therapist-It got old pretty fast. But I thought the commercials were pretty funny, so maybe I'll give it another chance.

I love that masseuse one. It looked like a cliffhanger ending to me. Am I hallucinating?
