Celebrity Apprentice returns with eighteen celebrities for Season 5 on NBC February 19. I’ve watched all of the previous seasons of the show, which have been full of crazy challenges and great conflicts between celebrities (ie- Gary Busey vs. Meatloaf) playing the game for charity. Plus there’s Donald Trump, who — no matter what you [...]

Andy Richter was on Lopez Tonight last night to promote the premiere of Conan this Monday Nov. 8th. He talked about how he and Conan were slighted (aka screwed over) by NBC and he even took a shot at Jay Leno (and rightly so!): Conan O’Brien’s new late night talk show premieres Monday at 11pm [...]

CBS’ new sitcom $#*! My Dad Says starring William Shatner is based on the Twitter account of Justin Halpern, who lives with his 89-year-old father. The show’s premiere brought in 12.5 million viewers last week. Maybe that’s why CBS is planning another TV show based on a Twitter account, @shhdontellsteve. That one is about a [...]

Sometimes when I walk by my dad sitting on the couch watching TV, I wish he had the game on. Or maybe more accurately, I wish he called in to me from the other room and asked me if I was going to watch the World Series with him. Its a strange position to be [...]

NBC has done it again… cancelled a critically-acclaimed drama with a good fan following. The network announced the other day that Southland, which had just five weeks ago been given a second season run, would be cancelled before premiering this season. The reason: the John Wells (“ER”) produced show has a “dark tone” that wasn’t [...]
