Jay Leno returned to his talk show tonight on NBC at 11:35p after his brief hospitalization late last week. I don’t know what was is that stuff they used to rehydrate him, but he was funnier than I have seen him a long time! Seriously who else besides me could actually see Conan O’Brien trying to snuff him out with a pillow? Starting next month he will Jay’s 11:35p slot, but I am sure he would rather have Jay’s 10p slot!
Melissa Rycroft injured her ribs so badly last week, that she was forced to pull out of tonight’s Dancing with the Stars’ live performance. Although she was trying not to let her the hairline fracture of her ribs stop her and went through with rehearsal earlier today, ultimately they got the best of her and the Judges were forced to judge her rehearsal. Let’s just say they kept it real and Melissa went from top of the leader board to the bottom. She scored a 21 for that dance and then Lacey Schwimmer had to take her place in the Team Mambo and that group dance scored a 25. I think even though she scored the lowest with the Judges scores, I think she will be safe for another week since she vowed to continue on. Finally Melissa Rycroft got interesting because I am sorry, but she bores the heck out of me.
Seriously what the heck are these professional dancers doing their partners? How many bones need to be broken before they realize their celebrities are not used to what they are used to. The show goes 8 seasons without ever having to have a couple’s rehearsal instead of their live performance, and this season has already had two. Steve-O at the beginning of the season and now Melissa. Who will be next?
Oh and luckily Belinda Carlisle went out before she heard her classic song with The GoGos destroyed by the DWTS band. How painful was their version of We’ve Got The Beat.
UPDATE: Here is the Team Mambo dance that Melissa couldn’t do. Do you think the guys need don Beyonce’s Singles Ladies attire at the end? It is an image I will never get out of my head.
UPDATE 2: The Dancing with the Stars producers released the following statement, “DWTS producers confirm Melissa will appear on tonight’s show to address her condition.” I can’t wait to watch DWTS at 9p on ABC to hear what she has to say?

Before Robert Pattinson was a sexy Vampire, he was a nerd in The Bad Mother’s Handbook. How different does the 21 year old look in that 2007 TV movie with a mop top as compared to his normal spiky coif?
I remember hearing the writers of Family Guy tell how they to sneak jokes past Fox’s Programming and Standards in order to get them to air. And every now and again, I wonder what or who they had to do to get a certain joke on the show. So now I am wondering what they had to do get the joke that starts on :30 in on the air. Did they leave a horse’s head under the Programming and Standards’ sheets?
BTW did you all get the joke? I thought it was brilliant because it is so wrong and somewhere I never thought they or anyone would go.
