It’s creepy and it’s cooky and altogether ooky and if this is what it takes to sell magazines these days, then shut them all down. Newsweek editor in chief Tina Brown’s decision to put the likeness of an “aging” Princess Diana on the cover with Kate Middleton and having the pair look at each other…

Perhaps it was the economy. Perhaps the backers, like the well  known Bobby Flay and Curtis Stone, didn’t back it enough. Or maybe three restaurant openings across the country at the same time were too much. Whatever the reason, America’s Next Great Restaurant “Soul Daddy” shuttered its doors after just two months. The NBC series…

Cute. sweet and funny. Judging by the trailer and reviews for Larry Crowne, that appears to be the best way to describe the new movie release. Despite solid performances by Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, however, is that enough to plunk down $8 or more to go see it? Although Kevin James is not quite…

Word that CBS and/or Two and a Half Men writer Chuck Lorre plan to “kill off” Charlie Sheen’s character on the show has me thinking of other characters/personalities TV would be better off without. On its own network, CBS should pay off David Letterman and send him packing. Leno on NBC, Mr. Nice Guy who…

Chris Wallace appeared to ask Republican candidate for president Michelle Bachmann an unfair question Sunday on his FOX News program. “Are you a flake?” Wallace asked the Iowa-born, Minnesota politically bred Bachmann. Despite being off slightly on some answers to questions on the political trail, Bachmann was clearly not ready for Wallace’s jab, especially from…

Is it possible the United Kingdom is even more jaded than the United States? After reading a review in the UK Metro of Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution, which just wrapped up its season Friday on ABC, I would say yes. Oliver tasked himself with trying to change the poor taste and quality of U.S. school…

First off, I would like to take a sentence or two to thank everyone reading this blog for its major growth the last few days. Readership has turned from the teens into the hundreds per day, and I am humbled and grateful for that. OK…tough segue here but had to take a moment to comment…

After all he has been through, and put himself and his family through, David Letterman should be as kind and gracious as possible … as often as possible. But you can’t teach old CBS Late Show hosts new tricks I suppose. Letterman and sidekick Paul Shaffer were both unnecessarily rude to Top 10 reader/guest Justin…

In one of the oddest recent happenings in sports, Washington Nationals manager Jim Riggleman resigned Monday. People quitting or getting fired happens all the time, but this case was particularly strange in that the Nationals had won 11 of 12 games at the time Riggleman stepped down. The manager was reportedly upset the team had…
