Tonight is the premiere of TV Land's first original sitcom, Hot in Cleveland.
It's got a great cast....Jane Leeves (Daphne from "Frasier"), Wendy Malick (the drunk gal from "Just Shoot Me"...the funniest person in that cast), Valerie Bertinelli (she of "One Day at a Time" and her new Jenny Craig body) and, of course...
From a distance, its striped orange and black coat makes it look like a particularly odd tiger. But it's actually a retriever, the victim of the latest craze among some dog owners in China to dye their pets to look like other animals.
The Chinese are always quick to embrace bizarre trends, and it is not unusual for owners to take their dogs to grooming parlours where they are not only given a shampoo and trim, but a multi-coloured dye job as well.
It's only a matter of time before animals become living billboard space for brand promotions.
True Blood has introduced a new werewolf character, Alcide, played by the average-looking Joe Manganiello. Here is what he had to say about the intense research he did to create this very complex character...
"Vampires can get away with having very slight builds and the audience will still believe that they're super powerful. Werewolves are animals and in my mind they should be very muscular. Not an extra ounce of fat on them. Really ripped. I wanted people to look at Alcide and think, 'wow, he's a super strong animal'.
Lady Gaga's new video, "Alejandro", has arrived and it looks a lot like a sequel to Madonna's "Express Yourself"...similar lighting and sets with scantily clad soldiers all focused on one sultry platinum blonde.
Although, Gaga does kinda resemble the Borg Queen a bit at the beginning...
I have a feeling you won't be able to avoid this song for the next few weeks in your local dance clubs. Just accept that, take a breath, and let the rhythm get you for a few minutes.
It's the time of year I always look forward to...Kathy Griffin has a new comedy special, Kathy Griffin Does the Bible Belt, coming out TONIGHT on BRAVO and then a new season of My Life on the D-List starts next Tuesday night.
I have a feeling she's going to be a very bad girl...and I like it!
These photos with the somewhat attractive photographer, Mike Ruiz, are really fun. He has a very creative...eye.
So, everyone set your DVRs for the special tonight AND for the new season of the D-list next Tuesday night on BRAVO. Unfortunately, Bravo's embed code is all screwed up, so if you'd like to see a clip from the show...click here.
Well, it's official, The New Adventures of Old Christine is canceled for good.
There was talk that the CBS sitcom (one of my favorites) might be picked up by ABC, but it was announced today that no deal could be made.
It's such a shame. That show was one of the funniest sitcoms still around (and there aren't that many good ones anymore) with a really great cast. The networks can really make some bad decisions at times (another couple of seasons of Two and a Half Men? Really? REALLY?!).
Also, it was announced this week that Guillermo Del Toro had to drop out of directing The Hobbit movies because of the amount of time it has taken the studio to get the rights issues cleared up.
Hopefully, Peter Jackson will just direct it instead.
Golden Girl Rue McClanahan has died at the age of 76.
McClanahan, who played man-happy Blanche Devereaux on the still-popular '80s sitcom Golden Girls, had suffered a minor stroke earlier this year while recovering from bypass surgery. Lawrence adds that at the time of her death Thursday, McClanahan “had her family with her. She went in peace."
Here are some of her best moments from the show...
Betty White is now the only Golden Girl still alive from the cast.
In the northern part of Guatemala City, the downpour created a giant sinkhole that swallowed up a space larger than the area of a street intersection. Residents told CNN that a three-story building and a house fell into the hole.
Geez...it looks like aliens drilled that hole right into the center of the Earth. How does something like that just...happen?
Of course, someone online had to enhance it to show what came out of the hole...
Pee Wee Herman is making a comeback this year and is bringing a new show (with all the characters from his old TV show) to Broadway soon. I used to love his TV show and, of course, the movies.
Here he is visiting Whoopie and the gals on The View recently to talk about it.
He doesn't look like he's aged at all since he first did the show.
