Ithaca gets a shout out in Entertainment Weekly… sort of

Clever jabs at ABC Family original movies and random references to my college are two of my favorite things to see in print, but never before have they been so effortlessly brought together. The latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, however, somehow manages to combine them in a blurb about “Princess,” a movie premiering Sunday on ABC Family.

Here is EW’s description of “Princess”:

The modern fairy-tale of Princess Ithaca. They’d have named her Princess Utica, but that just sounds dumb.

Holy obscure reference! Seriously, how many people in this country would get this joke, let alone know what the heck Utica is? I love you, Entertainment Weekly. In fact, I love you almost enough to forgive you for giving Diablo Cody her own weekly column.

Almost.

    I’m watching this ABC movie right now…yes, I know they’re stupid, but when you have a 9 year old daughter, it comes with the territory! As soon as I heard the princess’ name, I came on IC’s website to see if there was any connection between the writer/director/producer and IC. Does anyone know if there are any alumni associated with the movie?
