Robert Downey Jr went to the premiere of his new movie Sherlock Holmes in an interesting hat and stood in the right place to create the illusion that his hat was on fire. As you can see when he steps away it wasn’t, but it was too cool of a picture not to share with y’all!
After 999 episodes on CBS, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson turns 1,000 tonight at 12:37a!!! The show that brought us hilarious gag interviews with Betty White and Henry Winkler, one of a kind interviews, opening musical numbers with puppets and an intern in a leather get up and most importantly the proudest new American Craig Ferguson as a late night host is celebrating a big milestone tonight and it is so richly deserved. In honor of the special occasion Wavy the puppet will the host the show with special guests Kristen Bell, Maria Bello and Jason Schwartzman. But it doesn’t stop there, there will be a very special musical performance by Jason Segel with his puppet Dracula (“Forgetting Sarah Marshall”) and his band The Broken West.
Whether you have watched some or all of the 999 previous episodes or tonight will be your first, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson is show you will want to see go for another 1,000 episodes. Maybe by then CBS will put some money into the show and fix the leaky roof!
BTW here are some of my favorite moments from the first 1,000 episodes!
Awards seasons is full swing with the nominations and today it was the Golden Globes turn at it. Once again The Weinstein Company rightfully dominated the awards with 12 noms for Inglourious Basterds, Nine and A Single Man, but Up In The Air had the most noms for a movie. I don’t get the George Clooney thing, I had to swear off his movies because to me they are unwatchable and extremely boring and are very small niche crowd…critics. On a positive note at least the movies are a little more mainstrean than years’ past. Although where is Star Trek on that list?
When it comes to TV, it is the opposite. I am happy that Glee sang its way to 4 noms and Modern Family was also represented! It was also nice to see David Duchovny, Courteney Cox and Neil Patrick Harris gets the noms, but where is Jim Parsons? And as much as I loved Thomas Jane in Hung, if you are going to be in a show based on the size of your penis and you are not going to show than I say you don’t deserve the nomination.
What do you think of the noms?
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s Golden Globes will be hosted by Ricky Gervais on NBC on January 17th.

Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore looks like it is going to be the purrfect summer movie and that is nothing to bark about. I have to admit when the trailer first started out I thought this movie looks like sh!t, but as it went on I found myself smiling several times. The movie looks like it is going to be a lot of fun and what more do you need for a summer movie?
