SATC & OPRAH TOMORROW!

The time is near, folks! Oprah welcomes back the cast of Sex & The City back onto her show TOMORROW, MAY 1ST, CHECK LOCAL LISTINGS, to talk about the upcoming movie.

Let's reminisce about the last farewell for a few moments now:

Daytime Emmy Nominations: huh?

Let's get this straight. ABC's All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital only received THREE acting nominations COMBINED?! HUH?!

This, while Jana and some random attorny on Y&R get nominations. WTF.

No Kirsten Storms? No Kelly Monaco? No Viki or Dorian? No Jason? Wow. Wow....

Right on for NBC finally getting some nominations, though. Chelsea has knocked it out of the park lately and Thao is great as Tony. I'm disappointed there was no love for Hope or Marlena or even Sami, but what can you do? Especially since Alison Sweeney played dual roles last year.

Oh and that Michelle Stafford nomination because she played two parts? The girl sucked as Sheila. Whatever.

Plus there was no Oprah this year or Martha in the nominations. Maybe Oprah took herself out of the race, but Martha must be PISSED! She's probably filing her sewing machine right now.

This is just incredibly touching

My friend Jessica passed this onto me. It features her friend Erica prior to her successful bone marrow transplant. Please watch.

DWTS: Jimmy grills Shannon & Derek on their shomance

we hear none of the cast was speaking to Ms. Elizabeth for two weeks leading up to her ouster.

AI: Marley needs to GO

Jason Castro needs to go. Done deal. please. I beg everyone to let it happen.

Brooke's 2nd song was great. She's a more mainstream Tori Amos without the creativity as of yet.

Syesha should have received higher marks for her performances.

Archuleta somehow found a way to be cheesier than Neil Diamond himself.

David Cook was good. Not blown away, but still good.

Oh, and Paula Abdul let it out of the bag that there are rehearsals beforehand and the show's somehow scripted.

GG: and you say.......Stay.

Remember her? I hope so.

LL will be making a cameo on the May 12th episode of Gossip Girl. I'm not entirely sure that its audience will remember Ms. Loeb, but I'm kind of stoked to see if she can act.

Maybe she can play Jenny and Dan's mom. Yeah i know that role was already cast, but that woman annoyed the living crap out of me.

All we can think of is....

The guy from Farmer Wants a Wife (or maybe it's not THE guy, but at least a promotional tool) drove down Hollywood Blvd in a TRACTOR earlier today.

I'm sorry, but traffic is already hell on that street with cars, let alone a SLOW-ASS TRACTOR TRAILER.

Could you imagine being behind this guy, while he just waves along? I wish instead of a pic, we had a video because what you don't hear is all the honking and screaming obscenities behind him.

CSI: career style

CSI star Gary Dourdan was charged with drug possession Monday morning in Palm Springs. He had heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, and other prescription drugs on him after cops found him asleep in his car on the side of the road.

Hopefully he learns his lesson.

The Hills: A Date with the Past

Ooo love the haunting and chilling title.

When I saw that Stephen was heading back to the Hills my haed was filled wiht visions of one armed hugs and head nugges and of course Lauren thinking that these things meant that Stephen was in love with her.

Whole point of this episode (aside from the return of Stephen) is that three girls who are way younger than me just moved into a fat pad and are making more than I probably will ever. BItches. Seriously the house is awesome, but can we get more akward that Audrina is shoved back into the guest house? Really though that girl has the best deal out of all of them.

So everyone from LC's parents (yes since stephen is back we are kicking it LC style), to Stephen's parents to LO want them to get together. Sadly Stephen does not fell the same way. I will give you time to adjust from that shocker. Sarcasm translates in blogs right?

Do you remember in High school when you used to bring me back at curfew? Do you remember when? Oh god LC some things should be left in memory lane. But of course at the end of episode Lauren realizes that some things are better left in high school. I for one miss the Laguna Beach Days. Winter Formal anyone?

Other things that happened in this episode, Justin Bobby, sopa and water finally had a three some and the out come was amazing. Heidi gets mad at Stephanie for going to Lauren's house warming party, so instead she watched a movie with Hedi who I really just want to feed a cheeseburger to. Oh and Spencer still sucks.

Feels good to be back in the Hills.

GG: I hate saying this

But during the first half hour of GG last night, a wave of "eh" fell over me, Karen, and Jessica.

It was almost as if someone who had never seen the show was writing the first half, another writer saw what was going down, took over, did damage control, and brought it back to better GG days by the last 2 minutes. I know set-up had to be involved with G's character, however Michelle Trachtenberg seemed to phone-in those scenes. Once bitch-mode sinked in, she rocked it. Nailed it. Drugged it. All of the above.

I can't believe Serena missed her SATs. AND that someone took the exam for her. How the hell is she going to get out of this one? I really hope there are some reality-based consequences to her actions this time around. You can't get scott-free by having someone impersonate you during a NATIONWIDE EXAM! You just can't.

Jenny was bothering me throughout the episode and don't you kind of get a....gay vibe from her new boyfriend? He has too many dogs.

I kind of called what happens next week. I won't spoil anything, but it looks juicy.

How much did you love "Sara" calling her dog, Georgi? Karen spotted that (thumbs-up!) for us. Also, did you notice Blair and Serena had barely one scene together throughout the entire episode? That doesn't help those feud rumors on set at all.

Vanessa & Nate=starting to really warm up to them.

Chuck wore too much makeup last night.

Just sayin.

THIS is GENIUS Casting!!!

Ok, this 90210 spinoff is looking increasingly promising as the casting news continues to pour in.

Tabitha Mills is a hardcore, drinking, rehab-attending, granny who has a sharp tongue.

Tabitha Mills meet Jessica Walter. Jessica has been cast as the sassy granny and we're officially ALL IN!

now we feel for her

We're all guilty of it. Placing opinions on particular people without really knowing that person's background.



This actually made us feel for her.

BB9: Adam splits $500k with his eyes.

Adam won. *silence* Hear that? No one cares.

This must have been one of the lesser juicy finales in BB history. Yes, the jury grilled Ryan & Adam, but most of the grilling came from Sheila's bitterness.

Plus, can you imagine how she felt when Julie read her name as 2nd place for the $25,000? Maybe you should stop whining. You reminded us of Amber from last season.

I loved how all of the contestants came out cheering and high fiving their fans. Sharon and Joshuah were clenching onto each other with excitement having seen everyone go nuts for them. Yeah...too bad those are the only fans, those people in that room. This is the lowest rated since the 1st season, hate to break it to ya.

Let me know when it's July 13th. Then maybe I'll care again (you know i will).

Hilary says no, but Degrassi chick says YES

Hilary is no longer Annie Mills for the 90210 spinoff, however, a Degrassi star has said yes....and I don't necessarily understand how it went from Hilary Duff to...her.

No offense because Shenae Grimes does a great job on Degrassi. It's just a bit odd...don't you think?

No one likes Chase Crawford

Congrats to Serena for winning our poll!

Even Chuck's ascot received more love than Nate.

Damn.

Great job, Fatima!

May 12: let the countdown begin

Ms. Spears will be appearing on another episode of How I Met Your Mother in basically 2 weeks. She'll be reprising her role as Abby, the cooky receptionist. Barney and B.S. hatch a plan to show Ted how much they hate him.

No idea why there's hatred being spread around, but it's a great career move for Spears.

90210 spinoff has found its mom

Lori Loughlin has signed onto the 90210 Spinoff as Cindy Mills, the athletic mid 40s Mom to (rumored) Hilary Duff.

Having read the script, she's a perfect fit. Either her or Heather Locklear, but that'd ring too much "The Perfect Man".

A Haunting: My roomie and I had to change our underwear

Remember Are You Afraid of the Dark? I own the 1st season (look on Amazon.com) and can't get enough. My roomie and I just found the adult version.

Discovery Channel airs a show called A Haunting every weekday at 2pm and 3pm. There are 3 years worth of episodes to get sucked into.

Holy....yeah.

This is what you do.

Have some wine. Try maybe 2 glasses or whatever gets you to the point where your vision is foggy or you have a permanent grin on your face. Turn off all the lights. Grab a blanket/throw/lover and curl up on the couch with popcorn. Try not to freak out or want to sleep with your lights on and/or door locked. It's like mini-scary movies everyday.

STUPENDOUS!

GG returns tomorrow night and not a moment too soon.

I just realized this and my heart jumped. Literally. It hurdled even.

PRINCESS: ABC Family's answer to Enchanted

sorta cute. brain-vacation tv, which is sometimes nice when you sit around your apartment praying for it to get cooler outside as you blast the AC, while eating a crisp BBQ Chicken Salad from Trader Joes (best salad in town).

yeah..soooooo.....

First off, cars suck. My car broke down (again) so I think there'll be a lot of blogging in order for tonight.

Secondly, I kind of went on a cartoon bender this weekend and I've got to point out a few things.

1. Spongebob is still as funny or even FUNNIER than what I remember. Thank goodness for new episodes featuring Squidward's snarky comments.

You might be wondering right now, does a 5 year old type this blog? No.

2. The Mighty B is HILARIOUS. Amy Poehler literally animates her RICK! skit onto Nickelodeon, lisp and all. I was blessed with two new episodes, which equals 4 segments. a. may. zing.

3. No matter how many times I watch The Fairly Oddparents, I can't get past the 2nd part. It can only hold my interest for 15 minutes.

4. The Spectacular Spiderman was on KIDS WB! (i'm getting really sad the more I type this lol), and i'm hooked. Makes me yearn for Iron Man this Friday.

1 888 HE CAN PLOW

call that number and love it long time.

Mariah Carey is a bitch.

and scene.

Top Chef news

Spoiler Alert

Spoiler Alert

Spoiler Alert

The finale of Top Chef: Chicago will be in....

PUERTO RICO!

LOST: 2 sneak peeks!

So, I'm still just a little confused as to the timing of that last scene last night (and damn that was a shock when so and so popped so and so in the head), but still....i'm addicted.

Here are two sneak peeks of next week's LOST. Notice how I don't mention who i'm talking about above since some of you probably haven't watched yet.




P.S. this 2nd clip ruins my day. in a good way, mind you, since we don't find out what's coming up next! ah!

Rebecca Romijn to be recurring next season

Hmm. This smells fishy.

Rebecca Romijn, who plays Alexis Meade on Ugly Betty, will be demoted to recurring status next season. She claims that after the strike, changes were made amongst the writers, and she doesnt' feel that her character could be looked over as much as in the past.

Interesting time for this to come out considering today's Hollywood Reporter runs an article praising ABC for its depiction of transgender characters.

Dang. This stinks. She'll be missed.

BB9: YAWN

Usually around this time, where it's the final 2 on Big Brother, I care.

not so much this year. Coworkers have even noticed my lack of interest in the show as of the last couple weeks. Sheila reminds me too much of someone *cough* and a Ryan & Adam finale screams snooze.

Let me know who wins on Sunday. Thanks.

Dear Reality contestants

Jon Unger here. How's it going? Happy Thursday if you will. I hope you're well.

Upon watching this week's Top Chef, I realized something. Ya'll don't do your homework.

At ALL.

Seriously.

Let's discuss the quick-fire challenge first. Although basically everyone received high marks for their desserts, you could see the panic in EVERYONE'S eyes when Padma announced the task at hand. She even referred to the poor desserts in the last three seasons. Those look of panics should not happen. Have you never seen TC? You wouldn't know that already, therefore study up on pastries, ice cream, etc? In the words of Flava Flav: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooow".

Then the elimination challenge. Jennifer and Antonia. Welcome to a reality show. When you don't do what's asked, you're eliminated. When you don't follow the rules, you're eliminated. When you substitute SEABASS for POLISH SAUSAGE, you're eliminated. Take care.

Get Fresh: ABC's back!

ABC brings the big guns tonight when all 3 of its Thursday night hits return after the long-winded strike: Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, & LOST.

Since Silvio is a personal friend of ours, we must start off by saying how excited we are to see how the rest of this season wraps up. He's been adamant about bringing the show back to its emotional core and you know it's a good sign when the creator pulls in the reins. We've had a chic withdrawl and we have a feeling UB is about to bring that back in spades!

Grey's Anatomy comes back and *spoiler alert warning, spoiler alert warning* creator Shonda Rhimes has made it clear that Meredith and McDreamy are getting back together. For good. Shonda's words. For. GOOD. It'll be interesting to see how that plays out in the coming weeks. Plus, can we talk about that intestines-in-hands commercial? Sheesh!

Last, but CERTAINLY not least is LOST. Words cannot even describe the rush of excitement we're feeling right now. Let's just take a moment of silence for all of the shizniz that's about to go down. *Breathe*

I know we can be snarky, but this just stinks.

I'm one of the few my age who watch That's So Raven. I've been ridiculed, stared at, etc for tivoing the show, yet I find it funny, so this news just hurts.

Orlando Brown, who played Eddie on the show, has been missing since early Tuesday morning. I sincerely hope the kid's ok.

JLO to give some TLC for some $$$

JLO's...

Scratch that.

Jennifer Lopez will be creating, co-executive producing, and starring in a docu-series for TLC showing her trying to promote a new fragrance, while being a new mom.

Seriously, that's the press release.

Either QVC or Aiken is really desperate.

Clay Aiken will be performing, yes you read that correctly, on QVC this coming Monday, the 28th, at 7pm ET/4pm PT, while people can order his album 8 days before its release.

Now i know what to tivo to nap to.

you know it's a sandwich, RIGHT?

Happy Birthday Valerie B!

Here's to your book and whatever celebreality show you'll end up on!

Cheers!

that catchy song during the OMFG ads

The Kills: Sour Cherry

Our heads just exploded

What?

Whoa.

What?

Per Variety:
(FROM VARIETY) – I Love Money, VH1's spinoff of the successful Flavor Flav reality show Flavor of Love, will premiere July 13 with a casting special airing July 6. The show features past Flavor of Love, Rock of Love, and I Love New York contestants squaring off in a series of competitions in pursuit of cash prizes. MTV veejay Alani ''La La'' Vasquez will host.

Um.....

Someone please come help me off the floor. I just fainted.

American Idol: Carly brought it and then some

We're going to start off this blog with a treat. Carly singing Jesus Christ Superstar from last night's Idol.


Did you enjoy? Because we sure did. It got us up off the couch TWICE (yes, we watched it again) and had the perfect mix of soul/rock/emotion for Carly's voice. It was her best performance yet.

Jason Castro. He really needs to go. Go celebrate 420, perform at a Ziggy Marley concert, and let us be. It was awkward.

More awkward, we'd argue, than Brooke starting the song over. Yes, she flubbed, but her starting the song over after only 3 lines of lyric did not rid the fact that her song was pouring with emotion. She did Madonna proud. yes, we said it.

Syesha, sure it was cute, whatevs.

Same with David Archuleta. We actually liked him this week. Hakuna Matata, we're still waiting for him to sing Circle Of Life (c'mon that'd be perfect)

David Cook. the guy keeps surprising us. This was technically beautiful and all he needed was the actual mask from Phantom. mesmerizing.

Who's going home? We pray Jason Castro. The guy's sweet, just not our style.

Cross your fingers, people.

102nd post and it's still about Girlicious. For the last time.

This is COMPLETELY degrading. Not even funny

and CHEAP which is the worst part!

Stupid sh@t [jonnyalisblog.com]
Uploaded by Alisvideo

wow our 101st post...and it's about Girlicious. The world's ending.

Spoiler alert!
the new clip from their single is out, so you'll see who's a part of the band. who cares, right?

Like Me [jonnyalisblog.com]
Uploaded by Alisvideo

We're going out on a limb right now, but THE best scene on ANY tv show this week. Thanks.

Let's talk about The Hills for a moment, shall we?

I had a sinking feeling last night as I switched to The Hills on my Tivo. What was that sinking feeling, you ask? It was one of "eh". Yeah. EH. I didn't really care either way if I watched the show. Of course, I knew I'd be sucked right in after pressing select, but still. Eh is never good. Eh means, I could go either way whether to continue watching the show. Eh means I have no invested interest or at least it's decreasing at a rapid pace. Eh means I'm getting frustrated.

Frustrated. Very. Very frustrated.

You're telling me that not ONE person, the ENTIRE 4th or whatever half, quarter, tenth, season this is, has commented on Heidi's appearance? Not on the chest, the nose, or the most obvious thing of all...her LIPS?! Yes, tabloids have commented on the first two parts. But, really? No one has commented on her lips? I cannot believe I'd be the first person to notice and bring it up in conversation. Maybe it can be worked into the repetetive conversations that the girls have.

"Heidi turned up at Mood last night"
"Oh yeah? I can't believe she'd show her face"
"I know, with everything that she's done"
"Exactly. And her lips, it looks like she was punched in the upper lip".

See how easy that is? Thanks.

Last night was a snoozefest. And that trailer for next week's episode? First off, I feel like we just saw the ENTIRE EPISODE, it was that long. Secondly, they must have forced EVERY storyline they could find into one episode because whatever was lacking from last night's (and there was a ton) looks like it was slammed into next week's.

One more thing: Audrina: take an upper or something. Those half-opened eyes of yours are overshadowing your too-white-to-be-healthy teeth. OH and Lauren, you are becoming ANNOYING. Get a LIFE. Suck it up, go out, see Heidi, smile, stop bitching, wash your hair sometime, and then we'll talk. The stick up your ass is so far up there it's starting to disappear.

New Girlicious song: yeah we can't believe it either.

but this ishk is good. maybe even great.

if you have no clue who we're talking about, slowly walk away from your computer....save yourself

Paula needs to slow her roll

From USA Today...today...:
Paula would love to 'be a student' on 'Dancing'
Will Marlee Matlin be going home tonight on Dancing With The Stars? She's at the bottom of the leader board and did not impress the judges last night. "I've just got to have another chance to show America what I've got..."' Marlee says today in her blog, clearly sad about last night's events.

Meanwhile, another star can't stop talking about her desire to be on the next edition of Dancing. Yup, Paula Abdul wants in. Sure, it might be a tad tough since American Idol and DWTS both air on Tuesday nights, but she tells OK!: "I’m a huge fan. It would be a phenomenal experience for me to be a student and to learn a form of dance that I’ve never been introduced to."

But isn't Paula a pro dancer from way back? No, she insists: "I was always a choreographer. ... I’ve never been able to be a student and I’ve never done partnering. If I even dabbled with it, I had to be the guy and that’s not fun. I want to wear the pretty dresses like the girls.”



That's some huge crossover potential

Viva Hollywood: Slap me.

This show is ridiculously bad. In a cheesy, Telemundo, you can't keep your eyes away from it sort of way.

Not only do the contestants perform in scenes involving slapping, punching, hair-pulling, and shoving into pools, but they have death scenes at the end. Yes, the two contestants in the bottom 2 shoot a death scene every week to see who "lives" on to see another day.

Hello, the death scene for this week had the title "The Massacre of the Mask". You can't make this stuff up.


video.vh1.com

Plus, we get the return of Vinci, the rebel model from 8th & Ocean. That modeling career must be in the frakkin CRAPPER now. AND, the ONLY GUY who has trouble speaking English is in danger of leaving the show. Aren't telemundos in SPANISH?

Kelly Clarkson sings to the Pope

My grandmother told me about this. Why we missed this, I'll never know, but now you can watch for yourself how spectacular Kelly sounds.

why the hell does no one watch?

I think there's something up with Nielsen. Seriously, only 2.44 million viewers watched Gossip Girl? Seriously? That's bullS*&$.

Bull!

What the FRAK people. You missed out on 2 huge OMG moments last night.

and no i don't care that i sound like a 14 year old girl. *raspberry*

OMG!!

we just had an anxiety attack over that damn door opening, revealing the 4 accusers and devilish Blair.

jaw on floor.

yeah...a hottie...

DAD

LOL!

GG so far

as my friend Jess and I sit here with our mouths agape at every Gossip Girl commercial break, I am realizing more and more that this show, seriously, gets me on the edge of my seat like no other. and it's a different edge. Lost drives me to the edge of my seat with its action and plot twists...it's a suspenseful edge.

Gossip Girl on the other hand is a dialogue-driven love. One that the banter flies back and forth so quickly, you almost get whiplash. Plus, it's a feeling of euphoria you get when watching, hoping it never ends.

jenny just stole the dress, gotta go. the bitch is going to jail in like 2 episodes, you can smell it...

"wake up little j

the bitch is back"

!!!

Speaking of LOST

Congrats to it for winning our poll this week! It's the series you're most excited about returning, while Battlestar....didn't get even one vote.

Ouch.

LOSTscape

This is just amazing

http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index?pn=lostscape

Prepare to be addicted

thanks Variety

Ok, well now it's official. TERMINATOR: SCC is now renewed for a 13 episode 2nd season.

Terminator renewed

Sarah Connor Chronicles has been (unofficially) renewed. It's a perfect fit with 24, so keep it comin!

WWE: WTF

Um.

We're speechless.

So, uh. Um. McCain, Barack, and Clinton will all be on WWE Raw on USA Network tonight at 8pm to, we're assuming, address a different kind of audience.

Wow.....

Well, they just laid the smack down on Bush appearing on Deal or No Deal.

That silence you hear is very awkward.

Jordin Sparks' throat is frakked up

Will she ever sing again? That's what some people are wondering after Jordin cancelled three concerts over the weekend because of a major throat injury, acute vocal chord hemorrage. The girl even had to cancel her opening night of Alicia Keys' tour. While it might be a bit premature to predict her being on the sidelines forever, this doesn't sound necessarily good.

Best.Show.Ever

At least someone got it right.

XOXO

Do you get what today marks? 8pm today?!

OMFG, Gossip Girl returns. TONIGHT. We're hyperventilating.

We had gone thru the necessary steps of withdrawl. Now....it's coming back and we can already feel the rush. The rush of Jenny's 180 to bitchmode, Blair's plan for revenge, Serena's secret, someone's coming out party, Dan's edge (we hope), Chance's brooding, and Chuck's delicious ascots.

Ah, yes. The crew is back. And we hope better than ever.

Marty is coming back to OLTL

THE ORIGINAL MARTY is returning to One Life to Live. Yes, Susan Haskell. The one who charged Todd and his buds with rape. The trial was EPIC.

While the character itself has been on the screen (and was last seen in an exploding van back in December), Susan hasn't been around for a while.

Happy Birthday, Tim Curry!!

Weren't you on a failed CBS sitcom set in a hotel?

oh well. we digress.

Cheers.

i'm sorry...WHAT?!

President Bush will be making an appearance on an upcoming episode of NBC's Deal or No Deal.

that crinkling sound you hear is Hell freezing over.

Happy Birthday Clarissa!

Melissa Joan Hart was born today in 1976. Yes, that means she's 32!

Now sing Happy Birthday in the tune of the Clarissa explains it all theme song.

We could see this coming from a mile away....

Black Panther to BET

BET is developing a series based around Marvel Comic's Black Panther. It'll be an animated primetime series premiering early 2009.

In addition, they have Making the Band wannabe, "Brutha", featuring Jermaine Dupri supervising a boy band of 5 "bruthas" who learn what it takes to be in the music business. I give the band a B5-month.

In the most exciting news....MC Lyte is returning! Woo Woo! She'll be narrating a dating show called "The Boot", which takes six singles and kicks them down to 2.

You know that's going to fantastic.

The Paper: Subscribe

We found a gem of a show last night flipping thru our tivo: The Paper. On MTV. While it might remind you of the failed "I'm From Rolling Stone", it executes its premise better and you immediately find the "characters" engaging. Speaking of which...Amanda.

The girl has Regina Spektor as her ring tone, which gains her mad respect, and she's that spunky do-gooder who never quite found popularity, but will ultimately suceed in whatever she does down the line.

Also, Adam=jail bait. Plain and simple.

While watching the show, you predict the entire series will be based on who will become the new Editor-in-Chief. Well, that mystery is solved within the first 20 minutes of the 1st episode, so it'll be interesting to see how the show plays out.

Amy Poehler makes us swoon even when she's a cartoon

Check out a sneak peek of The Mighty B!, Nickelodeon's new NICKTOON, premiering Saturday April 26th at 10:30am. It's the creative love-child of Amy Poehler and it just looks...lisp-tastic.





New episodes of Gossip Girl premiere in t-minus 4 nights. Just fyi.

Natalie and some hair dye

=reality tv gold.

Wow. BB9 last night brought it to a whole other level. Ryan & crazy-eyed Adam calling a house meeting, while Nat refused to join in because she was dying her hair..priceless. Moving the house meeting to the bathroom, as Natalie both dyed her hair and freaked out as she admitted to both groups that she planned to be in the final 3 boys and girls style....even better.

You did sort of have to feel badly for Natalie when she started crying. Those were real tears as she poured her lying heart out to Ryan & Adam.

And then...wait, I'm sorry, Sharon got into it with Natalie? She showed a BACKBONE??? FINALLY!!! I love Sharon, but she's needed to step into the spotlight and this was a perfect opportunity for her to do so. Bravo. Sharon has never lied, well, to my knowledge, and I applaud her for that. She's upfront, to the point. I would trust her in the game more than Natalie, hands down. *BAM*

Adam, don't ever call a woman a bitch. I hate that. And Sheila was never yelling at you. You were yelling not only with your voice, but with your eyes. Stuff those things back in your damn head.

The sequester house looks boring. Thanks. When James whips out the DVD, I immediately wonder if he'll ever whip out that gay porn DVD to show Chelsia. I'm just sayin. Whoa.....James...whoa....lay off Chelsia. damn. now i don't like you AT ALL. At least own up to the fact that you lost YOURSELF, Chelsia might have "influenced" it, but that's just petty BS. His "falling for a girl" bit. really? we're just going to ignore the gay porn past? Really?!

Ok, the speeches, yada yada. Now voting time. Dun Dun Dun...Tie. Sheila has to break it. Good decision, short and sweet. Can't wait for Nat to freak out. Ok, Natalie is basically puppy-dog pleading to Sheila as Sheila states her case. Ryan looks like hell when he hugs Natalie. He hates life right now. Could Sheila actually win this whole thing? Ok, maybe not. She immediately starts causing drama about having to break the tie.

The obligatory interview. She's shocked, yada yada. Now she can see Matty. and have him completely ignore her.

HOH game. It's a bullseye. Just tell me who HOH is already. Another tie breaker! Come on, Sharon!....and fuck.

Bye Sharon. Goodbye Sharon, you're gone next week.

yawn

Cindy McCain will be co-hosting on The View next Monday.

We'd give you the actual date, but we're left wing. sorry.

is anyone watching Days of our Lives lately?

Because if not, you're missing daytime drama at its best. Maybe the strike helped out all soaps (AMC is also getting back on track, if only Y&R would kick it up a notch instead of its snoozefest lately), since now there seems to be an urgency to everything going on. Fan faves are returning (Chloe and Nicole, Victor, Caroline, etc). Nicole is better than ever. Her spats with Chloe remind us of the Ghoul Girl days. John's back, granted as a (new) robot, but still back and loving up to Marlena. Anna & Tony are a match made in lovers quarrel heaven. Chelsea is a bombshell, the new psycho, Ava, is AMAZING. Her freakout scenes are Emmy worthy. Who knew a new character could cause such a stir so quickly??

Now get Stefano out of that damn Marlena-drugged induced coma and we'll be all set!

MIT finally moves up!

While American Idol lost viewers, and a certain blond KLC, Men In Trees FINALLY inched up in viewers last night. Granted, by 600k, but STILL. The show is so imaginative, heart-warming, witty, just plain cute, that I still can't comprehend why it hasn't gained an audience. Well, other than those pesky schedule moves, but ugh.

Oh and Model was down. Maybe someone at CW should stop deciding to run those unnecessary clip shows close to the end of its season, when momentum is building. Just a thought.

danity kane rocks out Kimmel last night

Kristin, my roomie Karla, and I were blessed to see Danity Kane live at Kimmel last night. They rocked the house, and you need to go to abc.com to see their second performance, Poetry.

Keep a lookout to the left of the stage, in the front, near Aubrey (who we had the pleasure of meeting earlier in the day...a complete and utter doll, adorable). Specifically, big round shadow...it's Karla's hair ;)

Hunka burnin love

These two men are gonna smack lips on Grey's.

We're already rewinding and pausing.

Did you miss the CMT Awards?

well you missed this funny skit

She held the damn note for 16 seconds

and by SHE I mean Kristy Lee Cook last night on Idol. The girl is a survivor. If they do a Destiny's Child night, the girl already has her song. Plus....the girl's kind of improving...hate to say it, but it's true.

David Archuleta, really? Snorefest.

Carly, oh Carly. I adore you. I think you sound like Kelly C, yet don't provide the chills for the audience. I want you to go far. One question, though. How in the hell are you 24 years old? So is Kristy Lee Cook.

Kristy.
Carly.
Kristy...
Carly...

yikes. I'll have the product Kristy uses, thanks.

David Cook. Somehow I predicted he'd sing something like Always Be My Baby. However, i didn't know i'd be completely blown away.

Brooke White, i still like you. Don't ever change. You're too genuine to be removed from the competition.

Jason Castro. I'm over you. Get a haircut, a tan, lose the guitar, and just model. Please?

A final note. The performance I replayed the most was....

Drumroll...

Kristy Lee. That end note was extraordinary.

MILF ISLAND

Thanks be to Rami and booty-shakin Mommas

4 Real Housewives

no, we're not talking about the cast. we mean literally 4 shows off the Real Housewives franchise...including...ready for it?

Date My Ex featuring aspiring "singer" Jo &...

Real Housewives of New Jersey.

we just fainted.

maybe it was that horrible orange hair color she was rockin a few weeks back...

Diane Neal is leaving SVU after 5 seasons as playing its main ADA.

Who would you want to replace her?

Let's go out on a limb and say something random like...
Cybill Shepherd.

or if they want less crazy....
Heather Locklear, she's not working

Gary Dourdan quits CSI

That douche from CSI is leaving after eight seasons. (we say douche because he literally beat up a cameraman outside of a club)

wait, is that Channing Tatum?

we're sure you heard the one about Nina Garcia

being let go from Elle Magazine, correct?

well, she was. we think on Friday, whatever.

what's more interesting is whether or not this will affect her job on Project Runway. not necessarily the best of times for this to happen considering the show's just-announced major move to Lifetime, but hakuna matata.

WHY is RHoNYC ending???

I just finished a Real Housewives of NYC marathon and this is just pure guilty pleasure.

So imagine my despair when a commercial ran touting this week's SEASON FINALE!!!?!?!?!!?

OMFG, in the words of GG.

How am i supposed to live without Ramona's crazy antics or Bethenny's boyfriend problems after her stint on The Apprentice: Martha Stewart or Jill, the Joy Behar look-a-like, or Simon, the eccentric gay guy?

ugh.

what the hell's on that note?!

Desperate Housewives returns tonight on ABC and it couldn't have arrived sooner.

When we last left our menopausal bitches, Katharine and Bree had a brief truce, Dylan tried to put together her mother's burnt note, Carlos was temporarily blinded without Gabby knowing, Susan dealt with Mike's addiction problem (please let this storyline end soon....), and Nicolette Sheridan stood around with nothing to do.

We hear shocks occur during each of the last 5 episodes this season. Consider us hooked!

Week in Review

wow Idol...wow

we know who got the boot.

all we can say is "wow".

wow Idol...wow

we know who got the boot.

all we can say is "wow".

The Starter Wife forgets her fashion sense

usually we say "hakuna matata", but ouch on that hat

14th hour of LOST?!

LOST might be adding an extra hour to the (strike-shortened) 13 hours it already has on its plate. Yes, 14 hours of Lost this year. No, it's not 22, but still!

PLEASE LET IT BE TRUE

OMFG and all of the above

OMFG is right. Of course we are super excited that Gossip Girl will be back on Monday April 21st, but to get everyone else excited, hell let's go with titillated for the return the CW is starting a racy OMFG campaign. Pictures of Serena and Nate in the throws of passion (such a soap opera line, we love it) and Blair and Chuck doing the same. The letters OMFG are written across the ad. Of course the bible belt will probably have problems with these ads so not all areas get that great letter "F". I mean come on people get your minds out of the gutter the "F" we are sure means fun, or frisky. Geez.

miley on IDOL Gives Back

holy cow. she KILLED it.

the same can't be said about ms. carey. anyone who has seen her perform Touch My Body LIVE lately on any of the morning/late-night shows she's been perusing knows the girl can NOT hit those high notes anymore. at all.

i almost forgot!

has anyone else seen Ramiele making her post-elimination rounds on daytime/late-night? um, the girl sounded better than her entire top 12 run. wtf.

american idol: my thoughts

either David Cook thinks he's Bono or Oprah's got a potential contestant on the 2nd season of her Big Give, because that give Back etching on his hand rang...cheesy.

i really wanted Carly to knock it out of the park tonight and she just didn't. i'm obsessed with her voice, yet the song choice was off.

Kristy Lee Cook knocked it out of the park in my eyes. She really surprised me, especially with the long note at the end of her tune. Impressive! Who would have thought, three or four weeks ago, that she'd be receiving such high marks from BOTH the audience AND judges? Not I!

The same can be said for S'yesha. Yes, it brought comparisons to Fantasia, however the girl still gave the song her all and performed admirably.

David Archuleta. I don't agree with Randy that it was his best performance ever (Imagine, hi, duh), but still one of the best of the night.

Brooke's performance brought a simple smile to my face. It was comforting.

Michael Johns. great.

Jason Castro. I still don't get it! What's everyone's obsession about the dread-ed guy?

I miss Ramiele.

YaYa to be a part of the AMC Family

you rarely hear about reality stars making a great career out of their 15 minutes of fame...aka just look at my ANTM blog a few days ago.

However, Yaya has beaten that trend by signing onto ABC's All My Children to play Jesse & Angie's daughter, Cassandra. Great move by the Daytime community. Yaya's recognizable, I know i'll be watching the first episode, and it'll bring some young people to the show. Very smart.

Touche, ANTM. Touche.

you will literally laugh your ass off

there's a little bit of comfort

in watching Kathy Lee Gifford back on daytime

we're lucky enough to have TVs on our desks and so we usually try to keep on top of things (granted i didn't know she had started her Today gig yet...)

you have to wonder, though. how much news does a morning show need to give? won't they run out of topics after 4 hours for 5 days, 52 weeks a year?

at least now we learned that Gilbert Gottfried is the Aflac duck's voice. who knew?

um...Project Runway just moved to Lifetime starting nov 2008

i'm sorry, our heads just exploded. how? what? huh? how did Bravo let their #1 show get away? that makes no sense, but congrats to Lifetime! that's a HUGE coup

"PROJECT RUNWAY" HITS THE CATWALK AND STRUTS OVER TO LIFETIME

IN NOVEMBER '08



-- Groundbreaking Agreement for the Seven-Time Emmy®-Nominated and

Peabody Award-Winning Hit Series --



NEW YORK -- Lifetime Networks and The Weinstein Company have entered into a groundbreaking partnership that will move cable's top reality series, "Project Runway," to the top network for women, Lifetime Television, beginning November 2008 with the premiere of season six. In its most recent season, the hit show averaged a 3.8 W18-49 Live + 7 day rating* and the Live + 7 rating for the March 5th finale was a 6.1 W18-49 AA%.



Heidi Klum, "Project Runway's" international supermodel host, and Tim Gunn, Chief Creative Officer at Liz Claiborne, Inc. and mentor to the show's contestants, are both fashioning their new home at Lifetime.



The pact, encompassing a five-year deal for the seven-time Emmy®-nominated and Peabody Award-winning series "Project Runway," was announced today by Lifetime Networks' President and CEO Andrea Wong and The Weinstein Company's Co-Chairmen Harvey and Bob Weinstein.



Wong said, "'Project Runway' is one of the best television programs on the air today on broadcast or cable. I am a huge fan. All my friends are huge fans. Having watercooler movies, dramas, and reality shows like 'Project Runway' is what Lifetime Television is all about. We welcome The Weinstein Company, Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn to the Lifetime family for many walks down the runway to come."



"'Project Runway' is our programming crown jewel and great credit goes to Heidi, Tim and The Magical Elves for building more than a television show, but an actual brand that influences fashion interests and pop culture," stated Bob and Harvey Weinstein. "Whether it be our recent Peabody Award or the great ratings we have seen each year, 'Project Runway's' millions of loyal viewers have made the show a nationwide phenomenon. We would like to sincerely thank NBC Universal and Bravo for all their contribution and support. Today's announcement is a celebration of all of our success and having Lifetime's unique cable reach will ensure that the show will continue to grow and expand in the years to come. Lifetime is one of the strongest cable networks in the industry, with great leadership and a true commitment to original programming. We are very excited for the many new opportunities that will now be provided to 'Runway' and its fans and look forward to premiering the sixth season in November 2008."



"Fashion is about change, so we're looking forward to saying hello to Lifetime, our new fashionable home for our fashionable series," Heidi Klum stated. "We're excited to bring 'Project Runway' to the #1 network for women."

Tim Gunn added, "Lifetime and I will definitely 'make it work' together. I am very excited to be part of the Lifetime family."



Responding to a lawsuit filed today against it in the New York Supreme Court The Weinstein Company noted, after declining to compete for the right to have "Project Runway," NBC has sued to try to disrupt the series moving to Lifetime. "We believe that this lawsuit is without merit. While good for the market for lawyers, it is always unfortunate when parties try to win in court what they have lost in the marketplace," said David Boies, counsel to The Weinstein Company.



"Project Runway" provides budding designers with an opportunity to launch their careers in fashion. The wildly successful competition reality series has proven to be one of television's most talked about and was the highest rated reality competition show in all of cable for 2007.



"Project Runway" is executive produced by Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz of Magical Elves ("Project Greenlight," "Last Comic Standing," "Top Chef"). Heidi Klum and her managers Desiree Gruber and Jane Cha of NYC-based Full Picture also executive produce the series. John Miller and Barbara Schneeweiss will oversee the production on behalf of The Weinstein Company.

*nearly 14 times Bravo's Total Day W1849 rating, while season four was in originals. (Bravo W1849 AA% Total Day is 0.28; Prime is .61, Source: NMR: Live +7; 11/14/07-03/05/08)

step it up and dance

ugh, why do i need to be addicted to yet ANOTHER Bravo reality show? seriously!

the premiere episode had stayed on my tivo for a few days, taunting me, saying "you know you want to watch me". and i definitely did. yet, i also didn't want to have to wait another few days for a new episode....and now i'm having to do EXACTLY that.

With that being said, i'm already calling the Cody and Janelle finale. they both exhibit an energy and personality that's infectious and breath-taking. however, Janelle needs to cool it on the "guerilla-angry man-face". like, yesterday.

I'm so glad Adriana's gone. she looks like Jennifer Beals minus the flashdance. Tovah needs to break out of her shell immediately. James & Miguel crack me up (and are talented to boot). Michelle & Nicole=forgettable. And did anyone else notice Michelle's over-tendency of smacking the ass of whomever wasn't cut? She would literally aim right for the ass after they exited stage right. Rewind the DVR and you'll see.

feeling DIRTy

My friend, Karen asked me if I watch Dirt the other day. Having tivoed 3 episodes of the 2nd season, I told her not yet, but I was torn whether or not to actually WATCH the show.

She had recently held a personal Dirt viewing marathon and LOVED it.

Well, much to my surprise...I just watched 3 episodes of it and now I'm swooped in. Granted, once OTHER scripted series return, it will probably go to the bottom of my list, but for right now I'm making sure to record Dirt AND The Riches.

Just saw my first two episodes ever of The Riches and I'm addicted to the twists and tongue-in-cheek turns.

Consider yourself helped :)

melrose place is on

lisa rinna looks SO much younger back then!

the pregnant man on Oprah

upon watching Oprah again late last night, i've got to say, it's both groundbreaking and applaudable for Ms. Winfrey to have such a subject on her show

I applaud her for bringing forth an issue and family that would seem cartoonish on any other show, but there was a very real and caring feeling at the root of it all.

bravo, Oprah, yet again.

now, go reward that Big Give winner :)

ANTM: If you can't make it here....i'm sure you'll be ok

I just had the pleasure of watching an old E! THS: America's Next Top Model. It included such epic events as Tyra's breakdown, Michelle's burning scalp, Janice leaving, why Adrienne hated everything about Model after she left, etc.

So, bear in mind that I watched this new episode after watching the majority of former contestants fall on their faces after they leave the show. Even to the point where Bre was BEGGING for a job during the interview. I don't kid.

The episode begins with all of the girls criticizing Claire for her tendency to be over-the-top and how she threw it in the rejected girl's face last episode for being chosen over her. I don't remember the rejected one's name, so sue me.

OMG, now they're reading from the freakin' teleprompter. Who in the HELL thought this was a good idea? I can imagine the meeting now: "Let's test the girls' literacy and make them scream out words and stuff".

Oh, and now the coffee's missing. I wonder who poured it out....apparently there was not enough drama so a PA poured it in the sink so Lauren can look crazy yet again, and then KILL IT (she's unique, i adore her) in the photos.

I just heard the word go-sees! is this the go-sees episode?! is it?! karen lee, stop talking, let's do go-sees. YES, 2 groups of 4. I'm so sure about the Sprint product placement. Did anyone else notice the Sprint cell phone close-ups in the last episode during the phone calls?

Claire knows New York. Those are the famous last words....mark MY words.

I'm sorry. Did Dominique just CAT WALK ON THE NEW YORK SIDEWALK?!

Can we hand Whitney the title already? The girl's gorgeous. (if you haven't noticed, i'm live-blogging while trying to rush out the door)

Lauren describes herself as feeling "very frilly". hey, at least she didn't say "curtainy".

Ugh, Whitney's discriminated against because of her size 10 figure. She's GORGEOUS. Ok, now Dominique is weighing in on that criticism. Can someone please tell her she won't work for runway b/c she looks like a dude? Oh, is that not PC?

I want to be Shoshanna's best friend.

Dominique just lifted her arms up Heidi-Montag-video-on-the-beach-style. I really dislike her.

I'm bored with team #2. the one with lauren.

Stacey Bendet holds the teams' fates in her hands. She looks like she just woke up from a bender.

Stacy-Ann is just so CUTE. not a model, but CUTE, like you wanna squish her face.

I'm going to reiterate that Bendet looks hungover as all hell since she just called Lauren's walk a horsewalk and then laughed on camera. Hungover. Bender.

Let's flash forward to the photo shoot. It looks pretty kick-ass. And the girls are bare, no makeup, no hair product, nothing. i'm on the edge of my seat.

...hello.....MIKE ROSENTHAL!

um. LOL um....did that really just happen? LOL. omg. um.....who does that? Oh, Claire, you just busted your face...maybe that bump to the head will make her crazy level go down to a 2.

Dominique's boobs are about to pop out. Claire's still hurting. Lauren's hair is making her look like Cousin It. basically, these girls are just grinding against the plastic.

down to the judges. Paulina looks great with the straight hair.

Photos:
Claire looks angelic. I'm surprised she doesn't have a bruise on the side of her face.
Stacy-Ann blends in with the background. Not entirely a good thing.
Kata-BEAUTIFUL
Whitney-i'm worried that she's about to leave because of the photo. Oh, the judges love it. nevermind....
Dominique-after flashing her cooter, she brings an actually good picture....i just ground my teeth typing that.
Lauren-looks dead. thanks for that, Nigel. you just made her almost cry.
girl before anya-great photo. that off-the-cuff pose is laughable
Anya-stunning.

FINAL 2
WHOA
CLAIRE AND LAUREN. did the judges see Claire bust it? i'm on pins and needles, don't let it be Lauren. Claire, I know you have a child to take care of at home, and you have the best intentions, but maybe there's something else you can do. YAY LAUREN. (don't mind me, I'm just rubbing it in Claire's face like she rubbed it in, oh what's her name? from last week)

judging from the promos for next week, Lauren gets a papercut and Anya overreacts thinking Lauren cut her entire hand off.
