-Michael Strahan was back on LIVE WITH KELLY yesterday...what can I say...I love the guy. Check out how big he is next to Kelly. He could palm her skull with those enormous hands. If you know your celebrity gossip, then you know that Michael is married to Eddie Murphy's ex-wife Nicole. Between the two of them they have 9 kids. Strahan's stories about his kids are even better than his football stories, well to me anyway.

-My favorite new Justin...Silver, the DOGS IN THE CITY guy, was back last night and as usual, he was training the pet owners more than he was training the dogs. I was freaking out while I was watching the show because of course the first year ever that I didn't participate in my town 5K, Justin and the family he was training who had an overweight dog walked in my town 5K! What are the chances? I can't believe I missed it! Remember how I noticed last week the leather couch trend? Well, the trend continued. Out of the 3 families Justin met with in last nights episode, 2 had leather couches and the 3rd had a leather chair. Maybe Justin should take a few classes at Parsons and combine dog/people makeovers with couch makeovers...I'm sure CBS could find a home for this one in the FALL! If Justin is up for it, we just need Les Moonves to be into it too. I am betting that Julie Chen got rid of Les's leather couch when she moved in.

-Last night this wacko guy kissed a cobra and spit out to cock roaches on AMERICA'S GOT TALENT but that was really the least of it. The competition in each category was tough. I would have liked to see more of the judges arguing over who to put through and who to keep, but the suspense in how they tell the contestants is just brutal. The emotion in their eyes, that freaking Coldplay song in the background, Nick is crying, I'm crying, oy vey... On Monday's show we had Andrew De Leon the Marilyn Manson looking opera singer who didn't make it through, but in last night's episode, we had Turf a street performer who we were all rooting for...finally good news for this guy...he's going to NYC! (Well the show is actually filmed in NJ so it's a bit misleading). I am ready for the live shows to begin. I love AGT!

-Patrick Duffy and Larry Hagman were on with my BFF Jimmy Fallon Tuesday night and told a very interesting story I had never heard before. Basically during the original season of DALLAS, the show was doing so well, the network asked for 2 extra episodes. The writers didn't have a clue what to do, so they just thought, well...we will shoot J.R. and figure out who did it and why during the hiatus. They had not originally planned to have him shot at all. Larry Hagman said that all Summer long people asked him who shot him and he spoke the truth..."Nobody has a clue who shot me". Great story.

- Syfy delivered its most watched second quarter in 4 years in total viewers and adults 18-34. They also delivered their highest rated 2Q in Adults 18-49 since 2009. Compared to 2Q ’11, Syfy rose 7% among Adults and 4% in total viewers, while continuing its year-long growth among younger viewers, soaring 18% in Adults 18-34 and 18% Syfy also saw its best June since 2008 among total viewers and Adults 18-34, while averaging the most Adults 18-49 since 2009. Yeah Syfy!

-After all the arguing and drama taking place behind the scenes on the set of COMMUNITY, Chevy Chase apparently will in fact be back for season 4. Shocking, but I guess since the showrunner is gone, Chevy can stay. This is most likely the last season of COMMUNITY anyway. Let's see how well it does on Friday nights.

. According to Nielsen, in the last 12 months, smartphone penetration has gone up 34%, tablet adoption is up 400%, adoption of game consoles has risen 1%, and connected TV is up 25% in the last six months. Nielsen plans to address this landscape change by expanding its Cross-Platform Ratings service deeper into tablets and mobile and double their panel size to 20,000. Doesn't it still blow your mind that the number is so low? We live and die by these numbers and they are such small numbers.

You guys know I love the
Viggle App. For all of you Android users who have been patiently waiting...good news!

I have already won 2 $10 Itunes cards and 3 movie tickets just doing what I do...watching way too much!

-No official word on Ann Curry's new role over at THE TODAY SHOW or her replacement. Gotta give Ann credit for showing up every day and maintaining an amazing professional attitude throughout this entire situation. It's been a gorgeous week here in NYC, if it were me...I'd have headed to the beach for a few days and "negotiated" while sitting on my deck and having a cocktail...but that's just me.


-More new blood over on THE GOOD WIFE. First we heard about Kristen Chenoweth and now Nathan Lane is coming over to Lockhart/Gardner. Hakuna Mata Nathan!

-Mobile is still pretty small comparatively speaking, but grown substantially in a short amount of time.



Thursday's Trivia Question: Don Grady of MY THREE SONS fame past away yesterday, I can't believe that I remembered his characters name on the show...do you?
