-The New York Times television critic wrote an offensively terrible piece about Shonda Rhimes’ new show and the evolution of black female characters on television. There’s a lot of cringe-inducing sentiments: that Shonda only relates to her “angry, black women” characters, that Nicole Beharie is merely a “sidekick” on Sleepy Hollow, that Shonda created How To Get Away With Murder (she’s the producer; the creator is this white dude), etc. Many, many people much smarter than me have already penned rebuttals — including Shonda herself.

–Jimmy Fallon‘s version of Family Feud is so much better than the real thing.
-Meanwhile, Billy Crystal and Jimmy Fallon traded wonderful stories about Robin Williams last night.
-I can’t decide if I love Kate Hudson’s pants or I hate them, but either way I’m totally mesmerized.
