-Sunday's are brutal even in the Summer. At 10pm, I had to make a tough choice, REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NJ, NEWSROOM (I dropped the "the") or the season premiere of WEEDS and EPISODES which is what I went with. WEEDS was good! SPOILER ALERT: It was Nancy who got shot in the head during last seasons cliffhanger. But now we know who shot her, the FBI agent who was killed in season one or two...his son! Never would have seen that coming at all. So now everyone is hanging out in Nancy's hospital room while she is in a medically induced coma. Of course even these people can be inappropriate in this situation. Stealing another patients food, peaking down Nancy's gown. Crazy stuff. Of course as always, Justin Kirk steals the show when speaking to a guy who turns out to be a Jewish Chaplain. Glad WEEDS is back even though it's the beginning of the end.
-EPISODES was also pretty good. The show within a show, PUCKS, premiered to some great ratings which means good news for Matt LeBlanc, Sean and Beverly. I know it's twisted but the entire storyline with Merc's blind wife, does make me laugh.


-DALLAS has already been renewed for another season, who knows how long JR's eyebrows will be by then. He should be able to donate them to Locks for Love at the rate he's going. Not sure if they'll take long coarse gray eyebrow braids, but maybe their is another old geezer whose eyebrows have fallen off and needs replacing. I am sure he would be forever grateful for the donation.


-NBC and the producers of SMASH are putting together a live broadcast of the Broadway musical THE SOUND OF MUSIC. While I am not a huge Broadway person, THE SOUND OF MUSIC is one of my all time favorite movies, I think it would be a great event if NBC can pull it off. They need someone juicy to play Captain Von Trapp and Maria...any suggestions?

For all of you New Yorkers, who watch GOOD DAY NEW YORK, you may have noticed a familiar face this morning as Dave Price who had been the weather guy for a few years before leaving channel 5 for the CBS EARLY SHOW is back but this time he will be sitting along side Rosanna Scotto and anchoring.

-Interesting article in Forbes magazine last week that I finally had a chance to read about online video and how it is currently being embraced by marketers as the space evolves. Shout out to my director, Marc Fonzetti, aka "The Godfather of Online Video" for his foresight in the space and his ability to push the industry forward. I better be careful...had no idea I was working for "The Godfather". If you haven't read the article...take a look:
