Bill O'Reilly and the Constitution

post from Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress on 07 January 2008 11:19:00 PM. © Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress

You've no doubt heard about and likely seen a video clip of Bill O'Reilly at an Obama rally in Nashua, NH on Sunday. O'Reilly took exception to an Obama staffer who was blocking O'Reilly's camerman's shot of the event. O'Reilly "gently" (O'Reilly's[...]

Writers Strike: Golden Globes Will Live, Sort Of.
Well, Not Really.

post from TV with MeeVee on 07 January 2008 10:50:00 PM. © TV with MeeVee

In a sad state, are the Golden Globes. Struck by the writers, and thus boycotted by the actors, the ceremony and NBC telecast set for Sunday has been cut down to a 6 p.m. press conference, to be televised for...

Gladiators Rule!

post from TV of the Absurd on 07 January 2008 09:01:31 PM. © TV of the Absurd

Top on my DVR tonight was two hours of American Gladiators. This remake of the old TV show is glitzed up and ready to take on all comers. I like how they’ve kept some of the old favorite challenges such as Joust and the wall climb, but they’ve added a splash down element to [...]

American Gladiators scored well for NBC during its two-episode debut on Sunday night, drawing 12 million viewers.

Variety reports that the...

Food Network wants three more years of Alton
Brown

post from TV Squad on 07 January 2008 08:22:00 PM. © TV Squad

Filed under: Food/Home/DIY, OpEd, Pickups and Renewals

The Food Network is making headlines lately! They have not renewed Emeril Lagasse's nightly Live show and recently declined carrying Mario Batali's new series. So, who does the Food Network want? Apparently, they want Alton Brown who they just signed to a three year deal. Brown will continue to host Iron Chef America, continue to produce and host his show Good Eats, and he's getting a new show called Feasting on Waves (a follow-up to Feasting on Asphalt).

Why so much Alton? The Food Network is aggressively pushing for a younger audience. Bob Tuschman, Senior VP, said that their campaign is working citing that the average age of the network's audience dropped from 50 in 2003 to 46 in 2007. Wow, what a big drop! (Note the sarcasm.)

TV Squad Daily with Brigitte - VIDEO

Filed under: Video, Podcasts, TV Squad Daily

Hey, Brigitte here with TV Squad Daily. I'll be covering the TV stories I find interesting each day, Monday through Friday, in this video blog.

Today, on TV Squad Daily:

Jay Leno and Jimmy Kimmel will guest on each other's shows this week, and the WGA is threatening disciplinary action against Leno for writing his own jokes and performing a monologue.
Dr. Phil isn't helping anything. (Update: later in the day today, Dr. Phil canceled the Britney Spears episode of his show for tomorrow...)
It's looking more and more like you won't be seeing the the Golden Globes on TV this year.

The video's embedded below, or you can subscribe to this podcast via our feed. Plus, you can also download the file directly.

Golden Globes Ceremony Officially Canceled

It's official: There will be no ceremony for the Golden Globe Awards this Sunday. Instead, NBC News will broadcast a one-hour live press conference announcing the winners. It's still unclear whether winners will be asked to give acceptance speeches. Jorge Camara, president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, issued a statement saying the following:

We are all very disappointed that our traditional awards ceremony will not take place this year and that millions of viewers worldwide will be deprived of seeing many of their favorite stars celebrating 2007?s outstanding achievements in motion pictures and television. We take some comfort, however, in knowing that this year?s Golden Globe Award recipients will be announced on the date originally scheduled.

Earlier today, according to Deadline Hollywood Daily and The Envelope, an e-mail went out to studio executives today with the following schedule for Sunday:

7 p.m.: a Dateline NBC show with clips and interviews with nominees
8 p.m.: a retrospective/clip show (still in the works)
9 p.m.: a press conference announcing the winners, to be covered by NBC News
10 p.m.: an Access Hollywood-style special visiting some of the Hollywood parties

NBC still hasn't confirmed the other parts of the announcement, but stay tuned ? I'll keep you updated as I learn more. The striking Writers Guild of America also hasn't issued any statements yet. I'm glad we'll get to learn the winners, but this sounds like a big bummer for those of us who were looking forward to the gowns and speeches.
