Louis CK Returns To TV With ‘Louie’

Last year I turned to this site to offer an apology to the brash comedian and now I’m here promoting his new TV series “Louie“, which premiered last night on FX. Since no one from FX‘s marketing department were nice enough to send me screeners, I caught the show last night and the critics were right [...]

For Your Health: John C. Reilly Doing Full Time on Adult Swim

The Real Situation for ‘Jersey Shore’


Well congrats is definitely in order for the young stars of MTV’s “Jersey Shore”. They held out for raises, which they so rightfully deserved, and are coming back for a second season of the bizarre pop culture hit. MTV announced this weekend that indeed the cast members will once again be fist pumpin’ and apparently getting $10K an episode to do it. Though the fist pumpin’ and parting will most likely not be going down in Seaside Heights. What I can only assume has become both a logistic and legal nightmare for MTV and their production crew will now force the network to look for a new home for Snooki and her “Wahs”. Rumored locations that the producers have been scouting are the Hamptons, Delaware and Rhode Island, and I m sure once they decide the location will be secret for less than 24 hours. And while the main 6 cast members are definitely returning, MTV has yet to confirm the return of Angelina, who I can only assume quickly realized her rash decision to leave the house that pink built was the wrong way to go.

Why Saying Goodbye to Conan Was Difficult……


Sadly, tonight marked Conan O’Brien’s last night behind the desk of “The Tonight Show” and I’m not going to lie, I got teary eyed. After all the nonsense and all the snark going around the past couple of weeks regarding NBC’s Late Night Wars 2.0, there is something to be said about the goodbye O’Brien gave to his fans tonight. As a fan of Conans for years, it was incredibly touching to see how important the show, his staff and his fans are to him. To watch someone have to say goodbye to something that they had worked hard for years for and seemed to love every moment of was painful. Quite honestly, I will not be able to say it as eloquent as O’Brien said it himself, so here he is thanking everyone, including NBC, for their time and support over the years.
