I think sometimes I get more information on the news scroll at the bottom of the screen than I do from the news or entertainment program itself.

Even on Entertainment Tonight, which I usually blow past on the dial, I learned on one simple scroll that:

1. Kirstie Alley has lost enough weight to hit the fashion runway …

my reaction: my weight yo-yo’s more than hers does, WHERE are my money making opportunities from it?

2. Conan O’Brien pilot ordered by TBS …

my reaction: good, that will give me a chance to see his work again.  ZING! But seriously, I have not watched his late night show in months … and I like Conan.

3. Kathie Lee Gifford to guest star on TV Land’s Hot in Cleveland …

my reaction: ooh, so many directions to go with this one. I’ll say this: gives me ANOTHER reason not to watch it. I don’t dislike her so much anymore, but the fourth hour of Today is a bit much … and so is all the drinking and talking on it.

4. Bachelor Pad 2 Highest Rated Show Last Night …

my reaction: are you kidding me? that shows just how poor TV is over the summer. If you think The Bachelor is schlock programming you AIN’T seen nothing.

5. Stay Tuned! …

my reaction: ummm… no thanks.
