TV: Win a Date with Tad Hamilton

Rosalee Futch (Kate Bosworth) and her best friend Cathy Feeley (Gennifer Goodwin) work at the Piggly Wiggly. Their best guy friend, Pete Monash (Topher Grace) is the assistant manager. He frequently gets store awards like employee of the month. Tad gets in the tabloids because of his bad boy photos and his agents, Richard Levy the Driven (Nathan Lane) and Richard Levy the Shameless (Sean Hayes) set up the Win-a-Date contest. The girls find out that Tad Hamilton (Josh Duhamel) is raising money for a children's charity by selecting one girl to go on a date with him. Rosalee wins and after meeting her, Tad realizes that his priorities are badly out of whack, and he moves to West Virginia for a while so her good morals can rub off on him. Pete, secretly madly in love with Rosalee, is very jealous. Meanwhile, Angelica (Kathryn Hahn), the bartender at their local hangout has a huge crush on Pete that everyone except Pete sees. Gary Cole, Stephen Tobolowsky, Octavia Spencer and Amy Smart are also in the movie.

TV: He's Just Not That Into You

I watched He's Just Not That Into You. It has a lot of big stars in it: Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, Bradley Cooper, Gennifer Goodwin, Scarlett Johansson, Busy Phillips, and Jennifer Connelly. Mary (Barrymore) handled the magazine advertisement for Conor's real estate business. Conor loves Anna (Johansson) but she meets Ben and isn't as into Conor as Conor is into her. Gigi (Goodwin) goes out with Conor who never calls her back. So she goes to a bar where he hangs out. His roommate, Alex works at the bar. Kelli Ann (Phillips) is a bartender/hostess at the bar with Alex. She has a crush on him, but he's not into her. He decides he wants to be her friend so he gives her advice on who to date and what it means when guys say certain things. Gigi's sister, Janine (Connelly) is married to Ben (Cooper). She is mad at him because he has been smoking behind her back and her dad died of lung cancer so she's upset about that. Ben meets Anna (Johansson) at the store and is instantly attracted to her. He tells her "I can't do this" because he's married but he keeps finding reasons to see her. He's good friends with Neil (Affleck) who doesn't believe in marriage. He's been living with Beth (Aniston) for 7 years but even though he's more committed to her than any of these guys who are already married, he doesn't want to get married. Beth finds out that her sister is getting married, so she realizes she really wants to be married. She works with Gigi & Janine.

Overall, this isn't a great movie. Yes, it has a lot of big names in it, but there are so many relationships that is can be hard to follow and being a Christian, I don't think these are good relationships, either.
