him during the Home Run Derby.

Jose Cano, Artie Altman, Andrew Werts, Pat Loftus, & Larry Goldberg all got credit for

-Hope some of you remembered to DVR the first two episodes of FRIDAY NIGHT
LIGHTS (CFF) that aired on ESPN last night to kick off the start of the re-playing of the
entire series of the best show ever.  When will the thank you's start to roll in I wonder?


-Great news people...not only did BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES  (KF) get renewed for
season 2, they added an additional 6 episodes...more Braxtons is fine by me as long as
Tamar is in all of the episodes...I love those Braxton's and that is the truth dot com.


-Forgot to comment on THE GLEE PROJECT from Sunday night. Is anyone watching
this?  I need to discuss this Mateus kid.  I really do. For those not watching he is tiny,
but he is not a little person.  I know I know, I am one to talk as I too am vertically
challenged, but this guy is really tiny AND he has braces and he seems to have no
problem at all taking his shirt off and really acting quite over the top...whoever his
parents are did a REALLY good job in building up this kids self esteem...he has so much
confidence for such a tiny tiny guy. Oh did I mention...he is TINY!


-I am kinda angry with the new Netflix rule...basically if you want DVDS AND streaming
they are going to charge you more.  I am dying to switch over to pure streaming but
the selections are not as vast, so starting September 1st people pay attention to your
bill or change your plan because the price is going up.  Not a happy camper at the
moment, but hoping Netflix will have more streaming movies and television shows
available quickly.  I really do LOVE my Netflix! (Did I ever mention that in addition to
all of the TV I watch, I usually watch a movie or two a weekend??? I really do watch
way to much don't I?)


- The eighth season debut of Curb Your Enthusiasm on Sunday was the most-watched
episode of the series in more than seven years posting 1.7 million total viewers at 10p. 
Let's see how many of us come back for more next weekend, I know for a fact that I
won't so now you are down to 1.699 million and I have heard a lot of feedback from
WWTM readers that they agreed with me and really didn't like the show this week.  I
mean it was just so ridiculous and uncomfortable to watch even for me and you know I
watch anything.


- Sherwood Schwartz, creator of two iconic classic TV series THE BRADY BUNCH and
GILLIGAN'S ISLAND, died of natural causes at the age of 94.  I personally need to
thank Sherwood Schwartz for my TV addiction as THE BRADY BUNCH was the first
show I remember being addicted to and obsessed with, begging my Mom to let me stay
up late to watch it (there were no DVRs or VCRs back then).  I consider myself a
BRADY BUNCH trivia expert.  Oh and my dogs name is Gilligan...just sayin, this TV
thing goes WAY back...RIP Sherwood!


-Have to come clean, I was out drinking with some friends last night and watched
nothing, so I really have a lot to do tonight when I come home (see people I do
actually have a life in between all this TV watching).  I didn't even watch any of the ALL
STAR GAME, but of course I do know that my American League lost 5-1.  Bummer. 
What's up with Jeter not playing? I am sorry "emotionally & physically exhausted" from
his pursuit of 3000 hits??? Really?  Look I love Jeter, but he can't show up???  Sorry
Jeter, this one I can't defend...


-If I have time tonight in between BIG BROTHER and all the other shows I missed last
night, I am thinking of checking out ROSEANNE'S NUTS, sounds right up my alley. 
Roseanne Barr reality show where she lives in Hawaii on a nut farm...sounds like TV
gold to me.


-Anyone listening to THE HISTORY OF HOWARD STERN this week?  The Gary tapes
were yesterday which is probably the best bit ever from the show and today, which I
have never heard before, is the 9/11 broadcast.  I was 9 months pregnant working in
the city and was already in the office NOT listening to Howard when it happened so
kinda excited to hear it this AM.


-Wednesday's Trivia Question:  In the famous "Oh my nose" episode, what actually
happened to Marcia Brady's nose?


-Wednesday's FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS Trivia Question: What is the name of the local
Dillon strip club where Billy Riggins wife works?
