In this TV Spotlight, Marxists at the Movies revisits the short-lived but unforgettable VH1 sitcom So NoTORIous (2006). Tori Spelling skewers her own image in a sharp parody of celebrity culture, while the late Loni Anderson delivers one of her greatest performances as Tori’s mother.

We unpack why this series was ahead of its time, why it may have been buried, and what it reveals about fame, privilege, and Hollywood’s refusal to laugh at itself.
