It would be easy to be jealous of Kenny Albert if he weren’t so darn good and deserve the success he enjoys. Albert, the son of legendary sports broadcaster Marv Albert, has that unmistakeable “Albert” voice like his dad and uncles Steve (Showtime Boxing) and Al (ex-Denver Nuggets announcer). He also enjoys the same down…

Talk about aging gracefully and with a sense of humor. No one epitomizes that better than the legendary movie and TV actor Abe Vigoda. Vigoda is famous for his role as Sal Tessio in The Godfather, but also starred on Broadway and had major roles on TV’s Barney Miller and Fish. A Wikipedia entry describes…

I rooted for the Utah Jazz’ great power forward Karl Malone and his team in the late 19990’s, especially when they took on the Chicago Bulls in the NBA Finals. I was a Knicks fan from New York and I HATED the Bulls, but I also lived in Utah for a year and built an…

They may be movie stars, but the father and daughter tandem of Paul and Mira Sorvino are people too. Mira, in fact, is a bit of a doting daughter these days due to her dad’s diabetes. The pair were on the FOX and Friends news program Tuesday morning where Mira showed how to make a…

I am not a television executive … nor do I play one on TV. OK, that almost joke aside, am I the only television “analyst” to see that the best fit for Katie Couric isn’t as a talk show host/part-time news reporter? That’s ABC’s plan anyway for its newly hired talent, set to work for…

Why do they even bother? All those dates, all those weeks of deciding who to keep, or who to bounce and The Bachelor and The Bachelorette still come down to one thing: The participants on either ABC show never find their true love. OK, I know about Ryan and Trista and Jason and Molly, but…

At some point a championship-caliber team has to dig deep and see what it is made of. Now is that time for Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat. After crumbling late in game two, on its home court no less, the Heat head to Dallas needing to win one of three games to get the…

I am comfortable enough with myself on enough levels to write this: Rob Lowe is a handsome man. That gift from God aside, Lowe also happens to be a heckuva actor with film titles like The Outsiders, Wayne’s World, St. Elmo’s Fire and hit television programs like West Wing and Parks and Recreation on his…

It should be rare that I blog about a show twice in three days, but I had to revisit America’s Got Talent after Tuesday’s season premiere. The NBC show didn’t disappoint, with uproariously humorous performances (like the talking bird) and touching ones (the man performing a song in public for the first time). It also…

OK, so Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb are tough to watch at times, especially when they are talking all over each other. And is a fourth hour of NBC’s Today Show, even if it’s the most successful morning news/entertainment program around, really necessary? Make that five hours if you live in North Carolina like…
