Nick Nolte attended a special screening for his new show Luck on HBO and to me it looked like he was wearing a robe and his PJs. Seriously doesn’t it look like he just got of bed and went straight from his Vegas hotel room to the premiere without changing? Maybe he is starting a new trend, the ultimate casual.

After a long flight from The States to Paris, France, Reese Witherspoon had some fun with the paps and stuck out her tongue for the paps. It is nice to see her being playful with the photographers because most of the time she is so serious in pictures.
Drop Dead Diva has done plenty of stunt cast throughout it first three seasons, and up until now I have accepted the likes of Kathy Griffin, Brandy Norwood, LeAnn Rimes and Rosie O’Donnell appearing on the show. But today they announced that Kim Kardashian will be appearing on a few of this upcoming episodes and now the show is now dead to me. The show became even deader to me than Deb is when I read what she will be doing on the show. This how the press release described her role, “Kardashian will play Nikki, Fred’s (Ben Feldman) new love interest who partners with his ex Stacy (April Bowlby) in a new business venture.” Why why why? What did Fred do to deserve this? He is so much better than her.
I guess DDD’s creator Josh Berman thinks he is like Guardian Angel Fred because here is what he said about the casting, “This series is all about reinvention and I’m so excited to see Kim ‘reinvented’ in the world of Drop Dead Diva.” And I am reinventing what I watch on Lifetime.
And on that note, Lifetime can you have shows have a get together and stick Abby Lee Miller on Berman for dancing with Kim Kardashian? Please, please, please.
BTW I opted to use the video of Snoop Dogg talking about the ex-Mrs Kris Humphries because I am so sick of seeing her all over the place.

The Super Bowl is a just a week and a half away, and we are getting the first look at the commercials that will be airing during the big game.
The first ad is a teaser for an unknown company that is bringing back a well known man…Ferris Bueller. The mysterious company posted the video titled “Coming Soon” on YouTube and said “We hate to be such a tease, but on a day like today, we just have to. Stick it out until the Super Bowl, or take a “day off” on Monday and catch the big reveal.” When I watched the :10 preview, I thought the mystery company was a hotel. But then when I went to the YouTube page, the related videos on the side are for curtains. So I am ass-u-me-ing that the ad is for a window dressing store. What do you think it is for?
Then another ad that got its debut today is so much more obvious that you don’t have to be blinded by the light to know that it is for Audi. To say that ad doesn’t suck would be an understatement. It had me laughing out loud.
When I was studying advertising in college, my goal was to have an ad during the Super Bowl because that is when the best of the best air. It looks like this year won’t disappoint. Especially if the Giants win. Go Giants.
Tonight at 11p on Showtime David Steinberg interviews some of the best comedians of our lifetime and our parents lifetimes too; and we will get to know how they got their start and what makes them so great on Inside Comedy.
Each of the episodes will feature one to three comedians just shooting the breeze with Steinberg and in their conversation they will be taking us inside their comedy. It is a rare look on how the minds of these comedic geniuses work and it is something you will want to hear them share with you.
With marquee names (in order of appearance) like Don Rickles, Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, Steve Carell, Janes Lynch, Billy Crystal, Brad Garrett, Martin Short, Larry David, Garry Shandling, Sarah Silverman, Mel Brooks, Carl Reiner, Tim Conway, Ellen DeGeneres (her brother Vance produces it), Kathy Griffin, Steven Wright, Robin Williams and Johnathan Winters, there is someone for everyone to enjoy and that is exactly what you will do. I have seen six of the episodes and no matter who the subject is, I sit mesmerized by their tales. One of my favorite revelations from the series is that Larry David told Steinberg that he used to be a happy man, until something that happened to him and changed into him to the man that he is today. I am not going to tell you what it is because you have to watch to find out.
It isn’t only them sharing with us these great stories, there are rarely seen clips also in the half hour show and they describe what made these moments so special. For example Don Rickles roasting President Ronald Reagan at his inauguration.
I cannot praise this look into Inside Comedy enough because it is great to see people that are always on be real for a half hour in a one-on-one sit down interview. You will be as enthralled as I was with the show, so make sure to watch it on Showtime tonight and every Thursday at 11p.
Robert Hegyes who was best known for playing Juan Epstein on welcome Back Kotter passed away this morning from an apparent heart attack at the age of 60 according to The Star Ledger. After Kotter, he co-starred on Cagney and Lacey and guest starred on several shows, but he will all be remembered as the Puerto Rican Sweathog. Last year year he was reunited with his other Sweathogs at the TV Lands Awards, so at least we got to see them all together one last time. Something I am sure that brought him a lot of his happiness during his last year on this earth.
So today write a note excusing yourself from something with the craziest excuse you can, sign it Epstein’s Mother and remember an actor who brought us so many laughs to keep his spirit alive.
On Tuesday Glee is going to take on Michael Jackson and today Fox released a sneak peek of the full performance video for Wanna Be Something. I don’t know about you, but I couldn’t concentrate on the song because all I could think of is WTF is Chris Colfer wearing? Between the full leather outfit and the fur hat, I didn’t have a place to be distracted from how horrible that outfit was from head to toe. That was until I saw Darren Criss doing the King of Pop’s signature move of grabbing his crotch. But unlike Jackson, Criss looked like a woman pleasuring herself in a porn video. Doesn’t he?
Now that I think about Glee should’ve released a different song because the episode has just been ruined for me.
