There's Scrubs video blog

The new season of Dancing with the Stars will replace Alias, which is going on hiatus for Jennifer Garner's maternity leave. Unfortunately, that will conflict with the O.C. Which will win out? Although based on early episodes of the O.C., Dancing with the Stars might get priority.

I finally finished watching Dead Like Me, and I'm sad since there are no more episodes (the show got axed after its second season), and the show was laugh-out-loud funny. There were rumors at the time of its cancellation that it might be picked up by the WB or a cable network, but that seems somewhat ludicrous considering the darkness of the show's premise and the foul language, which are pretty inherent to the show. Sigh. Anyway, you should definitely watch the show! I loved it!

tvtattle.com had a link to a rave review of the script for Aaron Sorkin's new show about an SNL-like sketch show.

Since you know I love Armageddon, I have to link to Ben Affleck and Josh Hartnett reenacting the animal cracker scene, which is an outtake from teh Pearl Harbor DVD. Hey, I think the tomcat has this DVD...

Uh oh, tomcat, Elizabethtown is not getting good reviews. In fact, it's getting worse reviews than Just Like Heaven. Also, Domino, the 'Keira Knightley is naughty and somewhat naked', is getting horrendous reviews as well.

Sandy from the OC is going to release a CD!

Sweet! There will be 21 episodes in the fifth season of the Shield, rather than the usual 13.

I have to tell you that my Google homepage, which I use to check a bunch of RSS feeds, is like fricking Brigadoon. For some reason, which I haven't figured out, am too lazy to research, and am currently blaming on the "firewall", I can only ocassionally access my personalized homepage and the google.com homepage. Mostly, I get 'page not found', usually for the entire morning, and much of the afternoon. Sigh. I'm a victim to the whims of the routers. And seriously, it's Google. And yet I can still run searches through the Google toolbar. Go figure.

The tomcat is mocking me because every week I say that I'm done with Lost, since I find the show to be overhyped and I now officially have no faith that JJ Abrams can give any kind of plot resolution that will not make me feel enfuriated by the lameness. Alias, I'm talking to you! So anyway, I'll say it here so that you call can mock me as well, if I'm still watching in a month or two.

Dean finally has a pilot that survives - Supernatural has gotten a full season. I guess Gilmore Girls alumni are doing pretty well for themselves (Chad Michael Murray, Adam Brody, and Jared Padalecki). But I sure would have liked to have seen Dean as the Young McGyver.

There are more crazy Lost websites to explore, including the Hanso Foundation and Dharma Industries.

Gah.The Tom and Katie news had died down for while, which was really just the calm before the storm. It's baby time!

Ashton is doing a reality show pairing college seniors with senior citizens on a race across the US, following the success of Beauty and the Geek. Frightening.

Everybody Hates Chris gets a full season! Go, UPN!

What are the numbers on Lost? (question five on this page might have the answer...)

Oh, it sounds like reports of Kitchen Confidential being dead may have been incorrect. It's off the schedule because of baseball, but some outlets may have interpreted that as the cancelled kind of hiatus.

Rob Thomas talks about Veronica Mars!

Oh. My. God. A fish plane. I can only hope I get this as my plane. This is way cooler than the Disney character plane.

I saw Serenity this past weekend and really liked it! I have continuing hopes of it becoming a mini-series on Sci Fi or something like that. The movie was fun, but would have been more fascinating if it played out over a tv season. And I just learned that the tomcat (the boyfriend) is a registered browncoat. Heh. Dork.

This NYTimes article makes a passing reference that Kitchen Confidential has already been yanked from Fox's schedule.

Production on Sex, Love & Secrets (the one with Busy Phillips) has already been suspended. And Reunion has gotten an order for four more scripts. And there are rumors that My Name is Earl may move to Thursdays to help shore up that night.

And I'm sad that the Sprint guy is no more. I'll miss the "Get a backup for O'Neill/Get Captain and Tennille" and Charo commercials.

The first question in this column has some predictions about which Tuesday 9 pm shows will survive.

Quick little interviews about two shows I enjoy: Grey's Anatomy and Everwood.
