Wednesday Links
There hasn’t been a decent series on Tuesday night’s since Friday Night Lights moved to Wednesdays, and god knows how long before then. So here are some links to brighten up your day:
The Oscar’s toppled last years audience by one million viewers. How? Why would more people tune in to watch Degeneres than Stewart? When you consider that this year’s nominees were even less recognizable than 2005, it is exceptionally baffling.
Speaking of The Oscars, Jerry Seinfeld’s appearance on Sunday night has led the masses to believe he was auditioning for next year’s hosting duties. What I don’t understand is, is that really something Seinfeld has to audition for? He’s the most successful TV sitcom comedian of all time. If he walked up to the producers before the 2006 show and said, “I want this gig”, are they going to bump him for Ellen Degeneres? Seems unlikely.
Disabled activists are “outraged” by Heather Mills’ plans to compete on Dancing With The Stars. What exactly are people nonchalant about these days? I mean, I am “outraged” by this show, the existence of someone like Heather Mills and the people who are outraged by Heather Mills’ plans to compete on the series; but you don’t see me taking a call to action. Maybe Heather Mills should take that undeserved divorce settlement she defrauded from one of the greatest rock legends of all time and leave everyone the fuck alone. Maybe people who watch this dreck will be asphyxiated by their own simplicity and it won’t get any ratings. And maybe these activists will find something better to protest for, say, more funding for medical research. Until then, I have no hope for any of the parties involved.
Finally, Jennifer Aniston is dating a cameraman she met on the set of Dirt. It makes sense, she has probably had her fill of the celebrity scene. Though with the way Aniston’s professional and personal luck has been going lately he is going to end up dumping her. Never the less, this guy must have really been caught off guard.
