Let His Writers Go!

I watched The Colbert Report last night and I'm almost certain it was the best one ever.



P.S. Ted Danson at 60? Amazing!!

So he might not become President

Just because South Carolina decided to be idiots and not let Stephen Colbert be on the ballot and because of the writers strike, does not mean you can't watch Stephen Colbert. The Daily Show has an awesome array of clips of all the Jon Stewart era shows.










Okay, this doesn't have Stephen in it. That's okay too.

It's 25!!

Cheers celebrates its 25th anniversary today. Without it, we wouldn't have gotten Frasier. We could've but we wouldn't have seen the Boston back story. Here's to you by giving us the best characters in TV history. Plus, a relationship that everyone keeps trying to top and hasn't succeeded. What? You didn't know everyone wants to copy Sam and Diane? They do. So watch an episode today on your DVD player or VCR. Why? Because TV Land isn't celebrating it.

R.I.P.

Shoot. Wasn't expecting this death especially a Match Game related death.



RIP Brett Somers
July 11, 1924 - September 15, 2007

You will most definitely be missed.

There will be a Match Game marathon in her honor on GSN. Watch it on Saturday, September 22, 2007 from 9 AM - 5 PM eastern time.

Nickelodeon won't listen

Nickelodeon recently announced that Noggin and The N would split and that The N would take the place of the Nick GAS channel. Nick GAS would then be placed on TurboNick meaning it's only available online.

I was paying attention to the rumors that Nick GAS would be a Nick Rewind channel. Something I've wanted for awhile.

I'm beginning to think that Nick doesn't want to cater to the 18-29 demographic. Thing is, we want them to cater to us. The people desperately want a Nick Rewind channel. Message boards all over the place (Nick's website, Facebook, MySpace, LJ, etc.) say they want to see classic Nickelodeon.

Don't pay attention to how poorly or how well the Nick Rewind DVDs have done. I'm pretty sure that not a lot of people even knew they existed.

Nickelodeon needs to start paying attention to us. Pretty soon (or even now), we'll be having kids, but we won't let them watch Nickelodeon. They'll be watching Disney because it's no longer a premium channel like it was in our childhood. Plus, it's starting to get more popular.

The longer they refuse to listen, the more viewers they'll lose.

Start paying attention to us Nickelodeon! We grew up with you. We were your viewers that made you #1. Appreciate us! We aren't asking to be the President of the company.

She's a flipflopper

In 1993, Kirstie Alley was asked if she would ever do a Cheers reunion (isn't that a tad bit early to be asking the same year the show ended??) Her reply, "Never. I don´t go back. my opinion about reunion shows is that they are so audiences can go, ´Gee, they look 10 years older.´ Well, duh, hello, it has been 10 years!"

In 2005, when asked by USA weekend, her reply was, "There isn't one that I know of in the works. But I would die to do one!" Alley shrieks enthusiastically. "My ideal would be to do a reunion show but act like we've all worked there the last 12 years. Not have it be a special, just an episode. That's what I would love -- with us all still losers working at "Cheers." They need to do that. Wouldn't that be fun?"

What I'm wondering is why the change of attitude?? Does 12 years of not doing a show like Cheers make a huge difference? Isn't this the same person who never appeared on Frasier, labeling her as the only living castmember from Cheers not to appear on Frasier. Granted that was because she has a thing against psychiatrists, but still.

A definite flipflopper.

Dancing With The Stars idea!

I just had the strangest idea.

You know how John Ratzenberger was the old guy on this last season of DWTS? Well for this upcoming season... let's use a fomer co-star of his. Ted Danson!

It's perfect. I came across an article today... Click here! Just read what's in the third to last paragraph.

I'm positive I've seen the guy dance in movie roles so he couldn't possibly be that bad. Maybe he wouldn't have the advantage that Mario Lopez had, but still!

Think about it. He'd be the perfect guy and he's eight months younger than John Ratzenberger.



It feels right to me.
