called out by an especially catty producer from her new film
Georgia Rule. We here at SDoF tend to think, "don't you people read tabloids before you ask tweeked out starlets to be in your films?" Lohan
acqueisces but her mom, Dina Lohan, continues her own
shame spiral.
On that note, check out this awesome stop-motion animated

SDoF has been getting an inappropriate giggle from the new advertising campaign for Al Gore's documentary
An Inconvenient Truth. Of course, we can laugh because it's never hotter than 75 degrees in San Francisco, they must be thinking of San Jose.

Beverly Hills 90210 S1 to be released Nov. 7th.
I actually salivated a little when I read this:
Although the pilot episodes came to DVD two years ago, fans have been clamoring for season sets of this landmark primetime soap opera! Shannen Doherty (Charmed), Jason Priestley (Tru Calling), Luke Perry (Windfall), Gabrielle Carteris (Palmetto Pointe), Tori Spelling (So NoTORIous), Ian Ziering (upcoming Biker Mice From Mars), Brian Austin Green (Freddie), Jennie Garth (What I Like About You), James Eckhouse (upcoming 2006 film Half-Life), Carol Potter, Douglas Emerson and Joe E. Tata star in the initial season of the series, where the action mainly takes place at West Beverly Hills High School with new kids Brandon and Brenda Walsh moving into the upscale neighborhood, and making lots of new friends.
You would think with that zip code, there would be a ton of guest stars in the first season of this show. But really there weren't. But you will be able to spot upcoming Friends star Matthew Perry, singer Debbie Gibson, and even '80s Playboy playmate Julie McCullough among these 22 episodes.
Beverly Hills, 90210 - The Complete 1st Season will be a 6-DVD set that runs 17 hours and 48 minutes. Please stand by for extras (if any) and box art! Melrose Place - The Complete 1st Season has been announced for the same release date of November 7th, and we've heard that the long-awaited Twin Peaks - Season 2 will hit US shores a couple of weeks after that. Stay tuned!

90210 (meanwhile digging up Palmetto Pointe and Biker Mice from Mars for Carteris and Zeiring respectively).
