Last Comic Standing 2010 Returns to NBC
Written by: JohnOne of my favorite reality TV shows hasn’t been on for quite a while, but I just saw the news that Last Comic Standing will be back on NBC this Spring 2010. That’s great to hear since I really enjoy this show. They’ve had a few down moments, but for the most part it’s just the very best of the comedic acts and that’s great.
Here’s a snippet of the news from TV Guide:
New host Craig Robinson (The Office) will usher in Last Comic Standing’s seventh season on June 7 at 8/7c. The show will move to its regular time slot at 9/8c the following Monday, June 14.
I’m not sure how much the host really matters. So, they can keep switching for all I care. Just make sure they give us plenty of comedy and we’ll be all good. Since it’s on network television, it’s clean comedy too. It’s like the only place you can find clean comedy. Maybe that’s why I like it so much.

American Idol Contestant’s Mother Missing
Written by: StevieCatAs if there is some kind of force keeping poor Angela Martin from ever competing on American Idol, her mother has disappeared!
If you recall, the first time she made it to Hollywood, her father died. The second time, she was forced to leave to answer a legal summons for parking tickets. Now this year, just when you’d think NOTHING can stop her, and she is in the last year that she is eligible to participate (age 28), her mother vanished the day after Christmas. According to the article I read, she never arrived at her other daughter’s house and her car was found on New Year’s Eve in a different neighborhood.
Here is a link to the story.
Tags: American IdolThis poor poor girl!! I’m sure that by now they are already in Hollywood for Hollywood week. Just how much more is going to happen to keep Angela from a career that she so richly deserves? I hope and pray that her mother is found alive and not a victim of foul play. I would also hope that the producers give her special dispensation should she need it and allow her some extra time once this situation is “resolved” one way or another to allow her some time off while not kicking her out of the competition.

Bachelor – Vienna, Ali and Elizabeth
Written by: JohnOk, I don’t usually blog about the Bachelor (well I’ve done a little in the past), but there’s just too much to say after tonight’s show. I was going to send a few tweets, but that just wouldn’t do it justice. I also think that my opinions will likely differ from many other people. So, here we go.
Vienna – I can see why all the girls hate her, but I don’t. I’m with Jake. She’s just totally misunderstood. The girls were ripping her when she was going to say sorry to Elizabeth for cutting in. Sure, I’m sure she’s said some things that could hurt, but I think it was usually unintentional. Maybe I’m biased because Vienna is like myself. We live in the moment and often don’t realize the impact that living that way has on people around us. Now, I would never become as Catty (how do you spell that?) as Vienna sometimes gets, but the girls in the house are crazy. Vienna’s good in my book.
Ali – I really adored Ali after the first date. She has a fantastic look and has that twinkle in the eye which I honestly don’t see in any of the other girls. I don’t know how to explain it. She was just made for TV I think. She has a way that just draws you to her when she’s on screen. However, she really rubbed me wrong when she went after Vienna like that and even to Jake. I actually hate when any of the girls talk to the Bachelor about the other girls. It’s just lame. Sometimes maybe it’s cutting and we don’t see Jake asking them about a girl. However, Ali has done it over and over again with Vienna. I think they were right when they say she’s jealous. Jake will have a rough time with that if he picks her. Too bad since she’s got such a great look. He’ll keep her around for a while though. So, no worries for our entertainment value.
Elizabeth – This girl was a tease. Let’s be honest here. If she didn’t want him to kiss him, then she shouldn’t have tempted him. That’s the epitome of a tease. Jake did right in sending her home. No guy likes to be teased. Plus, in the interview we saw her true side come out. She’s an arrogant girl. Glad she was sent home. Nice read by Jake.
Gia – She’s the absolute dark horse. Don’t be surprised at all if she’s in it near the end. Although, she won’t actually win. Otherwise, the show would have likely given her more air time I think.
Best Cry Moment on Bachelor – Yes, I’m a man and I’m willing to admit that I cry watching TV and movies. I’m ok with it. However, everyone reading this should have cried as well. I don’t really cry watching the Bachelor. However, there’s one moment on many of the Bachelors that I can’t help it. No, it’s not a wheepy bawling sort of cry. I just can’t hold the emotions back when one of the people’s kids comes running out to surprise them. It’s my favorite moment on any Bachelor. There’s just something extremely beautiful about those moments. In fact, it might be the most factual emotion that’s portrayed on any part of the Bachelor.
Remind me not to watch the Bachelor next season;-)

Pants on the Ground Video on American Idol
Written by: John*West Coast Spoiler* This video from the end of American Idol has to be one of the most memorable parts of this episode of American Idol. In case you missed it, check out “Pants on the Ground”:
Those people looking for the lyrics to Pants on the Ground, hopefully this will help:
Pants on the ground, pants on the ground.
Lookin’ like a fool with ya pants on the ground.
With da gold in ya mouth, hat turned sideways
Pants hit the ground, ya call yourself a cool cat
Lookin’ like a fool, walking downtown
With ya pants on the ground
Git it up
Hey!

In case you missed the Survivor 20 Cast announcement, watch this great video where Jeff Probst talks about each of the cast members. He reminds you about each person and gives you insight into why they’re on the show and what we might expect from them.

I’m also confused since I don’t see Dancing with the Stars on my list above. I know season 10 of DWTS is happening sometime too. Maybe they haven’t announced a date yet.
Please let me know of other shows that are missing and I’ll update them. Thanks!

Conveyor Belt of Love Preview
Written by: JohnThere’s a new show on ABC.com called Conveyor Belt of Love. Basically, a bunch of guys come out on a conveyor belt and 5 ladies choose if they’re interested or not. If 2 of the ladies choose one guy, then the guy gets to choose who they want to date. This show is all about casting the right people to entertain us, but this preview of Conveyor Belt of Love is pretty entertaining stuff.

Original Music on iTunes from The Sing-Off on NBC
Written by: JohnIt’s pretty cool that NBC and The Sing-Off is posting the music from the various Sing Off contestants on iTunes. They’re a little slow to get it up on iTunes, but it’s nice to be able to purchase the a capella version of the songs from your favorite groups on The Sing Off. Considering this is their first season doing it, I’m impressed that they were able to put this on iTunes.
