Wednesday Links
Long day ahead of me. I will eventually get to last night’s episode of Dirt. Until then, here are the links…
Stephen Colbert and Bill O’Reilly have agreed to appear on each others shows on January 18th. Said O’Reilly of the agreement, “I am looking forward too talking to a man who owes his entire career to me.” Honestly, I might have to call off work too prepare for this.
Marcia Cross is pregnant. And instead of doing the next logical step and writing her character on Desperate Housewives into a sudden pregnancy, they are trying too conceal it from the camera. Amazingly enough, the editing, production and design teams are actually that this task is proving to be somewhat daunting.
Wood Harris, the man who portrays Avon Barksdale on The Wire, seldom watches the series. Why does this bother me?
The Real World is taking its dog and pony show to the other side of the world. I really hope they use Australians. The dismal US stereotype of a drunken lout is not going to be helped by sending seven twenty-somethings to Sydney for six months of drinking and depravity. Then again, Australia probably isn’t the best place too venture if one is trying too keep anyone, especially reality contestants sober. Thus explaining why MTV settled with Sydney.
And finally, after all the grandstanding for free publicity with Miss USA, Miss Nevada and Rosie O’Donnell; the ratings for The Apprentice plummeted.
Just one last shameless reminder to get all of you people to think like me, if you have never watched either The Wire or The Sopranos, BET is airing the pilot tonight at 9pm et. in the first ever syndicated episode of the former, and A&E is airing the pilot and sophomore episodes of the latter at the same time.
