FIRST TRAILER: "GAME CHANGE" STARRING JULIANNE MOORE AS SARAH PALIN

Still from Game Change

 "It wasn't my fault, I wasn't properly prepped".

Julianne Moore like the brilliant Actress she is, absolutely transforms into Sarah Palin in this intriguing first Trailer for HBO's Game Change. Delving behind-the scenes on the intense relationship between John McCain and the famed former Alaskan Governor, this would appear immediately to a bit more on the satirical side.  One thing's for sure -  Palin isn't portrayed all that favourably from what we see here and if anything, she seems rather unstable. Directed by Jay Roach, Game Change also stars Woody Harrelson, Ron Livingston, Sarah Paulson and Ed Harris.

Watch the Trailer in full below:

Game Change airs on HBO, Saturday, March 10, 2012.

Gen. David Petraeus

ABC aired Barbara Walters' annual 10 Most Fascinating People special last night. In what could be considered a surprise, General David Petraeus topped the last according to Walters. Deemed an "American Hero", Petraeus is celebrated for the humanity and strength he has shown as the Top U.S. Commander in Afghanistan.

In an otherwise non-eventful Special, Walters also presented the cast of Jersey Shore, Justin Bieber, Mark Zuckerberg, Sarah Palin and Jennifer Lopez among the year's most noteworthy.

"SARAH PALIN'S ALASKA" IS ENTHRALLING

Still from Sarah Palin's Alaska

Although many of you have your opinions about Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin, we cannot deny that the Woman is a Star.  After hearing so much about TLC's new record-setting Reality TV series Sarah Palin's Alaska, I decided to check it out.  

The show steers focus away from Politics and plays off more like a weekly hour-long advertisement for Tourism Alaska in its  beautiful Cinematography.  We see Palin as a loving Wife, Mother and recent Grandmother, spending Quality Time with her Family doing things which a more industrialized America would find novel: hunting for Caribou, de-boning Fish, Clam Digging, etc.  There is a telling charm to her when we see her speak so fondly still about hunky Husband Todd, who has seen her through many highs and lows from High School where they first met, through five Children and now one Grandchild later.

16 year-old Daughter Willow like any other Girl, struggles with acceptance from her Peers and being a good Daughter, telling the Camera a little embarrassingly "None of my other friends have to do this on their Birthday" as she de-bones a Fish.  Older Sister Bristol, of Dancing with the Stars fame, steps up to the challenge of beheading a Fish with no reply to her Mother's revealing question to her on Camera, "Bristol, did you want some of your favourite, Fish Head Stew?".
