Stuff you need to know

Here's the news, all the news that's new and approved by "Take this blog and shove it", the sweetest smelling blog in the land!

New show on ABC tonight. "Celebrity Debut". Haven't seen any commercials for it, but then again, I speed through those. In my guide it seemed to say something about showing celebrities before they were huge stars, possibly early work or auditions or screen tests. On at 8 I think.

New fall schedules are coming out. NBC has TWO shows about life behind the scenes of an SNL type sketch comedy show. One is a comedy from Tina Fey called "30 Rock". She stars in it as a head writer, and Ratchel Dratch and Tracy Morgan are in it as well. Is that going to be weird or what? Will they still do SNL? It's hard to see how they could do both.

The other is "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip". This is from West Wing dude Aaron Sorkin and is a dramatic version. But it's been placed at 9 p.m. on Thursdays, which will put it up against the CSI juggernaut and Grey's Anatomy. It doesn't look like it will have much of a chance to succeed against those powerhouses. I believe all NBC should try to do is counter-program with a game show or reality show to try to get a viewer like me. DVDguy agreed. Why not put "Deal or No Deal" against CSI and put this show elsewhere where it has a chance?


In other news, I was wrong yesterday. You'll never guess who was right.

On the grocery front, I had some "double vanilla" Edy's Ice Cream. What makes it double? I dunno. I guess I'd have to eat it side by side with regular vanilla to see if I could notice a difference.

  • Did the double vanilla have little bits of vanilla bean? I'm puzzled by the "double" thing as well.

    I think I heard that little David Silver from 90210 is hosting the Celebrity Debut show. Geez, that makes me want to watch!

    I'm pretty excited about the Aaron Sorkin show, and Thursday night is a dead TV night for me.

  • I dont think it had little bits of vanilla bean. I had it at my mom's house. It looked like normal vanilla to me. It said double vanilla, and under it said "sweet and intense" I think.

    Alas I'm not sure dotcom can watch the new show! Dreamy Mark Harmon and Idol might prevent that.

    Hey...at least you know ONE drama show next season that I will be giving a chance to!

  • Oh, worry not... the Celebrity Debut thing was said totally in jest. My Tuesday @ 8:00 dance card is full, at least tonight!

  • Well I couldn't be sure, because I don't know if you watched 90210 or not. It's not as though you are above trash (desperate housewives).

  • Nope, I was having babies during 90210's heyday (I think! Early 90's, right?)

  • Well...I've heard some people watch TV while they have babies.

    Maybe you did....just Barney and the olsen twins....

  • Well Brian Austin Green needs a full-time gig now that Freddie has mercifully been canned.

  • So I guess the three of us will have to DVR this show?
