The Week in Review

Comments

Ann Romano, that is as far as I read the article. Scanning the rest of it, I am happy with that decision.
Have a good vacation Mr. Schmader, you are always missed.

I started to read and was surprised at the snarky, mean-spirited and dull hollywood gossip. then i scrolled up and saw ann romano's name....PLEASE find a different replacement for Schmader Stranger! I refuse to believe you can't find someone better.

No no no no NO!!!

I thought Madrid was filling in when Schmader was out? By all means, give Romano a gossip section BUT DON'T PUT IT IN PLACE OF LAST DAYS!

...and here I was thinking we were done with this tripe.

Good god, give it a break. Ann Romano is funny! She's got a different style than Schmader and that's a good thing every once in awhile. Let's have a little fun, shall we?

@3: I agree with Proteus013. Hey, Stranger--how about a gossip column for Ann? What happened to Cienna?.
Have a nice vacation, David, and happy holidays to all. Best to you, Cienna, Dan, Ann, and everybody, but I do miss you when you're gone from Last Days.

Although this week's column DID have its moments: Welcome to our world, Mitt, "Mr. gas-pumping 47%"!
Thank you, too, for offering even more excellent reasons to skip Black Friday and boycott Wal*Mart!

Ann Romano is not a suitable replacement for David Schmader.
7
Ann Romano is terrible. And how many goddamn vacations does David Schmader take in a year?
8
Where the hell is Cienna!? I thought we were done with this tripe!

Why do you do this to us, Stranger? And during the holidays, no less! *sobs*

My concern about Ms. Romano isn't that her work is bad; I don't think it is. The problem is that it duplicates what Gawker already does. I'd encourage her to try something fresh.

Dammit, Ann Romano is terrible. Celebrity gossip is already dreck without her terrible, hysterical writing.

There are a million places to go for worthless celebrity gossip written in the mindless, teenage girl style.

Now you are actually scraping the underside of the barrel.

Just postpone "Last Days" if you do not have a competent person who can write it.
11
I didnt even read this. I am just leaving this comment in all caps. ANN YOU SUCK. YOU RUIN LAST DAYS EVERY TIME YOU WRITE FOR IT. IF THE STRANGER CONTINUES TO USE HER FOR LAST DAYS I WILL NO LONGER SUPPORT THE STRANGER IN ANY WAY AND I WILL TAKE UP REPUBLICAN IDEALS.

@6 Agreed. Celebrity gossip is not a good fit for TWIK.
13
I want the last four minutes of my life back that were wasted reading this shite!
14
no no no.....not "biebgo" - it's JUSTGO....
15
no no no....not "Biebgo" - it's "JUSTGO"!
16
no no no....not "Biebgo" - it's JUSTGO!

Sorry, Ann - I am sure you all you did here was accept the assignment. But, it is true, whomever determines who should fill in really does not understand this column and what we readers want from it. Ann does this same tired shtick for The Portland Mercury every week - oy - so this is prob just a cut and paste job to fill the empty column. Sad.

Yeah, I'm missing the stories of grannies keeping their dead husband's bodies in the attic, and people popping their zits on the bus. I can get gossip from hundreds of different sites.

Please wait...
