-Let's get right to it...Kelly and Bryant Gumbel totally looked they were hosting an Easter Egg Hunt out on the prairie with Ma and Pa Ingalls on LIVE WITH KELLY yesterday.  This was a pre-recorded show and featured The First Lady, Michelle Obama who always impresses me. I bet she didn't like Kelly's outfit at all and thought...hmmm wasn't the White House Easter Egg hunt a few months ago?  

-AGT was a mix of a bunch of different auditions from all of the different cities they had visited to date.  I'm so ready for Vegas already...lets move on people.

 
 -For the record, I have officially deleted my season pass for BETHENNY, & REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NYC.  I did catch REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NJ which was standard fare...Theresa and Joe are idiots.  Jaqueline finally called Theresa on the carpet for being a liar and for not telling her if she is going to jail or not (Why would she want to find out from the tabloids if she is going to need some new clothes to go visit her BFF in the big house?).  Jaqueline is an idiot for even trying.  If it were me,  I would just focus on my husband...Chris. He really seems like a good guy who has it together and is the only "normal" one around.  Bag them all Jaqueline...you're better than that.  Caroline showed up "out of the blue" to get in on the Theresa thing. It was a bit of a set up,  but I liked Theresa on the defense. Also...another classic Theresaism...when referring to Jaqueline or Caroline (I can't remember which) she called one of them a Hecky and Jyde. OMG hilarious and idiotic all at the same time.   In addition, Lauren complained about her weight but hung out with her brothers and their friends while they devoured pizza, veal parm hero's and soda...whhhhhaaaaaaaaaaa Lauren...I heard Daddy got you the lap band, so now you'll have to find something else to complain about.  



-THE GLASS HOUSE is such a rip off of BIG BROTHER, obviously the judge who ruled that it wasn't had never seen BB.  Sure there are slight differences, but net net...same show.  I haven't decided if I am going to stick with it or not yet.  Here are my thoughts:
1) Yes the house is glass, but it's obviously inside a studio and there are walls in the house, so there is privacy, the glass teaser was bogus
2) Pretty sure this is not a reality show but more of a FAKEALITY show.  The participants are  America's puppets. They can/will do and say things intentionally to impact the game and their relationships, no way can this be considered a reality show.
3) Also fake...almost every woman on the shows boobs...seriously one pair larger than the next
4) Anyone who proclaims himself "Primetime 99 Alex Stein" and wants to be "the most epic villain in the history of reality TV" could have been interesting, but this guy got so mean so fast that all I want is for him to leave...he had potential and blew it
5) One guy, Jacob, already quit the show after losing the first competition...lets see how many more leave
6) I didn't keep track, but upon meeting the cast,  most of them describe themselves as "real" or "keeping it real"...does anyone know what REAL means?  
7) Kiss & Blow in episode one?  Things are going to get ugly fast

-2.7 million viewers tuned it to Sunday night’s season one finale of THE CLIENT LIST on Lifetime up 8% versus the program’s average, according to Nielsen Research.  It also delivered 1.2 million Adults 18-49 viewers.  I guess a lot of these people were okay with the tease factor of this show and just enjoy Jennifer Love Hewitt.  I thought I could stick with it, but I only lasted 3 episodes...It was the 50 Shades of Gray coursing through my veins that needed more.

  1. I fell asleep watching Glass House but I was trying to make a list of all the similarities. It is the same show - Big Brother on steroids. And I absolutely noticed the REAL coming out of everyone's mouth. I have it set on my DVR but I think I'll be keeping it REAL and sticking with the original show I love to hate, BIG BROTHER. LET'S GET BUSY!!! Aresnio all the way baby!!
