Match Game update


Funny man Andy Daly will be the host of the show. He's always very funny. It looks like after a break out role in "Semi Pro" this is the year of Andy.

Quick before our 15 minutes are up


The American Idol Live tour is going across the country in record speed. In two and Half months they are doing over 50 shows. "Quick, before you go back to school and forget who we are tour." In fairness, some need to get back to the studio, school and/or Chilli's.

Celebs announced for "Match Game"

BloggerBuzz fills in two of the blanks by reporting that Sarah Silverman and Norm McDonald will be two of the panelist on the remake of "Match Game." No host has been announced. Sorry Jimmy Pardo! I guess there's still hope.
Pardo set up an online petition to get him to be a host. If you want to be a host of a show, get an agent to call a person. Maybe it will work. We still don't know. No host has been announced.
At least real and funny people have been cast. Not the usual suspects of professional celebrities. You know, Carnie Wilson, two out of three Brady boys, Steven Baldwin, Omarosa...
I would book Mo'nique. She would be great. Yes, I said it! I like Mo'nique! Well who would you pick?

Here's a funny page of celebs smoking on the Match Game.

This is why people sell out

This was supposed to be a video of a beautiful house that was used in the TV show "Entourage." But the video doesn't work here or on their website. Instead of taking it down I just wanted to point out this is a video you can't see of a house "witha great view." because it's broken from a company called "Reality that works." Hopefully it will come back up.

America gives "Hulk" and M. Night one more chance


Like a drunken uncle who swears he'll "never do it again," movie goers let "The Incredible Hulk" and "The Happening" back to their figurative Thanksgiving Day tables. The films took in $56 and $30 million irrespectively this weekend.

"I swore after "The Village" that M. Night was dead to me," said Ms. Tidwalters of Queens, NY, "But he promised that "The Lady in the Lake" would be different, that he changed."
After spending her last $11.50 on the "Lake" he funds funds were dried up.
"He had that actor from 'Sideways,' it wasn't supposed to go this way..."

Her husband threaten to leave her if she went back to what's "Happening."
"I just couldn't see her in pain again. That guy has let her down each time and I'm the one stuck here picking her off the floor."

Thankfully at the end of the day, Mr. Tidwalters is a nurturer (mother issues) and can't leave his wife.

The Hulk story did not turn out so happy.
"Fool me once, shame on you," stated a disappointed fan, "Fool me twice, shame on Marvel."

MaterCard Gets With the Times


In an obvious move to attract younger customers, Master Card is using M. Bill as a new spokesman for their credit card. Nothing says, "up with the trends" like dusting off a gem like this one. Was Artie Johnson not available? Sock it to me!


Wasn't Mr. Bill only funny b/c you were either high or 5 years old? I need an idea that keeps on giving!

Hillary Clinton Not Done Yet!

Although Senator Clinton is supposed to give some sort of concession speech on Friday - that does not mean her presidential plans are permanently paused. The group of fans that got CBS to bring "Jericho" back for a second season have been hired to get Hillary back in the race.

If you remember they sent peanuts to CBS until they gave in and gave the show 7 more tries to get ratings. The show died on the vine, but the fans persisted.

Now these hyper mind changers have hatched a plan. they are sending thousands of pants suits to the Democratic Party headquarters.

We hope Senator Clinton does better than the TV show did.

Can Oxygen get their money back?


A Keen eye in Burbank watched a sky writer as he wrote "Tori and Dane." Did he/she mean "Tori and Dean" the title of the Tori Spelling reality show? Unless Spelling is now with comedian Cook.

Entertainment Weekly takes a stand

EW picks who they think are the next A-list movie stars adn they don't care who they offend! take a stand Ew!
The new issue of "Entertainment Weekly" has gone out on a limb, taking a stand and doesn't care who disagrees with them. They are taking their fate into their own hand and possibly alienating publicists by picking what they call, "The New A-List."

They have chosen such controversial choices for the next big movie stars as the Dwayne Johnson (He should never have left the WWE!), Robert Downey Jr. (remember? From Ali McBeal?) and from FOX's "Undeclared" Seth Rogen.

They also point out young unknowns like Anne Hathaway, Ellen Page and Michael Cera and "Even Stevens" star Shia LaBeof.

Ew, continues to challenge Hollywood with their picks for teh Emmys. It starts off pretty edgy. They have the nerve to pick Alec Baldwin (won a Golden Globe last year), the guy who played Fraser, James Spader (who won for this role at least twice and once beat out Tony Soprano) and the guy who played Captain Kurtis Blow from that old forgotten show "Star Trekkers" or something.

Shatner has won the Emmy twice before, both times for the same character. That does not mean anyone would vote for him again?

Men left home to starve as wives go to the movies!


"Sex and the City" proved that if yo give women a movie for them that they would want to see, they would see it. Fuckin' shocker. CNN radio's headline was "Girl Power." These ain't girls. They woman folk.

Yes, if you give woman a good movie, they will go and see it. Hard to believe but true. So will men. Not jus tthe ones dragged by their ladies.

People are belittling the numbers, but it is what it is. Great. It did almost three times better than "What Happens in Vegas," the big star vehicle. Better than Narnia II or "Forgetting Sarah Marshal on their opening weekends. In fact "City" made in one weekend almost as much as "Marshall's" did in seven weeks.

Oh, hey expert talking heads, if you are going to go on the TV and talk about this phenom; it's called "Sex and the City" not "Sex in the City."

Do this mean Hollywood will copy it by making more films for women or more movies from HBO series?
I say, wait for "Mind of the Married Man: The Movie."

Today show goes to the streets

You know it's hard times when the Today show is teaching housewives how to pawn their tennis bracelets.
Pawning for quick cash
Pawning for quick cash


Towards the end of the segment, the Pawn Yenta is using some tough street talk.

Tomorrow on Today, they take you in the world of shooting craps. "Is it a waste of time or can you really double your grocery money?"

Parking meters, eye sore or cash cow?

Naive News: Tatum O'Neil was doing research


This weekend actress Tatum O'Neil was arrested for buying crack. But she told the police officer on the scene that she was doing research for a role. There you go. IMDB must have forgotten to put that role on the website. Oh, well.

Then they found a crack pipe in her purse. Well, she told them that it was her first slip up and then asked to let her go. They didn't! It was her first slip up, people!

It reminds me of the time I caught that kid holding coke for a friend, in his nose. What a good kid.
