Sex and the City opens May 30.

Are you looking forward to the movie?

Beverly Hills 90210 was THE show when I was younger. My girlfriends and I used to watch it over the phone with each other.

Now, a new version is coming back to television. Click here for more details on the new premise.

Rumor has it that Jennie Garth will be joining the cast of the 90210 spinoff. She was always my favorite character on the show. I hope it’s true.

What other cast members would you like to see make a return to the zip code?

Here’s a fun little quiz that determines what year you belong in.

What Year Do You Belong In?

You Belong in 1983
Wild, over the top, and just a little bit cheesy. You’re colorful at night - and successful during the day.

I always knew I’d end up a child of the Eighties.

In what year do you belong?

The Sarah Connor Chronicles has me hooked.

A sequel or prequel? Don’t know what to label it with all the time travel. Let’s call it a continuation of the Terminator movies.

We’re 5 or 6 episodes in now and the plot keeps getting thicker.

I like the actors. Lena Headey, who plays Sarah Connor, is a little skinny to be running around acting so tough, but she’s likeable enough. Thomas Dekker, John Connor at age 15, is cute and sympathetic.

But my favorite character is Cameron Phillips, played with a sense of humor by Summer Glau. She’s a good terminator sent back in time to protect the Connors. But good is a relative term. Can she be trusted?

It’s nice to see shows being created with strong women in the starring roles.

Have you seen the Sarah Connor Chronicles? What do you think of it? And who is your favorite character?

Mondays on Fox at 9:00 PM.

My favorite actor, Sean Bean, has won Hello! Magazine’s Most Attractive Man poll for the second straight year.

Isn’t he gorgeous? Well, maybe he’s a little scrufty as Boromir in The Lord of The Rings, pictured above.

But I’ve had a crush on Sean Bean since I saw him as Robert Lovelace in Clarissa. He is probably best known in recent years for his many turns as Lt. Richard Sharpe in Sharpes Rifles and the rest of the Sharpe series.

Other notable roles include Alec Trevelyan/006 in Goldeneye, Sean Miller in Patriot Games, Spence in Ronin, Ian Howe in National Treasure, John Ryder in The Hitcher, and many, many more.

Here are some pictures of Sean Bean:

Who do you think is the most attractive actor?

I must have been a very good girl this year because I received the complete Gilmore Girls for Christmas.

I loved this series for several reasons. It’s not often you get so much time devoted to women on television. Designing a series entirely around the lives of women is very rare.

I also loved the fact that so much emphasis was placed on education and reading. Rory always carried a book with her and Lorelei always interjected literary quips into her jokes.

There were also the girly things, like fashion, music, and boys.

My favorite character was Emily Gilmore, Rory’s grandmother. Kelly Bishop should have won many acting awards during the lifetime of this series.

I’m more than halfway through the first season already. It’s fun going back and watching them without commercial interruptions.

So pour yourself a mug of coffee and spend some time with Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledel and Kelly Bishop, the Gilmore Girls.

Queen Latifah is partnering with Lifetime Television to talk to women voters across the U.S.

Every Woman Counts is the only public service campaign dedicated to encouraging women to speak out on the issues they care about most, vote and run for office.

Kicking off in January and airing on Lifetime until Election Day on November 4, Queen Latifah is recording the spots during her “The Trav’lin’ Light Concert Tour” and asking women to complete the sentence, “If I Were President, I would ….” Designed to draw attention to issues of significance to women, that are often lost in the frenzy of campaign coverage, the spots will also air as broadband vignettes on myLifetime.com.

Along with the interviews conducted by Queen Latifah, Lifetime will interview celebrities, political candidates, thought leaders, viewers and visitors at myLifetime.com with the goal of collecting one million responses on-camera, online and on postcards at grassroots events throughout the year. The answers will be shared with the presidential candidates, nonprofit organizations, and the media, and ultimately will be delivered to the newly elected leaders in the White House and the Capitol in January 2009.

So, what do you say? Enter your response in the comments section.

Dooney & Bourke has teamed up with everyone’s favorite cheerleader and Heroes star Hayden Panettiere to design a new bag for its upcoming ad campaign.

Following in the footsteps of other female celebs like Mischa Barton and Lindsay Lohan, Panettiere wanted to design what she described as “a large leather shoulder bag with puffy pleats, a buckle closure and great style.”

Peter Dooney and his design team translated her dream into the limited-edition Hayden Bag, which will retail for $500.

The bag will be available at Dooney & Burke boutiques as well as Bloomingdales, Lord & Taylor, Macy’s, Nordstrom’s and online at www.dooney.com.

You’ll start seeing the ads in December, just in time for holiday shopping.

How about some cartoon villainesses?

Geek that I am, all of these pictures are from the Batman universe.

I thought about putting Wonder Woman and Bat Girl, etc. but you don’t want to be a good girl on Halloween, right?
