While everyone has been focusing on what will air on NBC weeknights after 11:35p, we all forgot to wonder what they will be doing before 11p. That was until now because NBC just announced what will be taking over for The Jay Leno Show at 10p and what shows that didn’t have a timeslot yet now have one. On March 8th the little show that could, Trauma will be back to air with their additional episodes that NBC ordered after rumors were started that NBC didn’t order any. Cliff Curtis, who plays Rabbit previewed some of the things we can expect on the upcoming episodes and we will get to see a different side of Rabbit and he told me his favorite Trauma is coming up and from what he told me I can’t wait to see it!!! Also coming back on April 30th is another miracle show and that is Friday Night Lights. I am so sick of reading how awesome this season is from all those people who have DirectTV and now in two and a half months I will be able to watch it for myself!
So here is NBC’s post-Leno and Olympic schedule that starts up on March 1st!

ESPN’s Sports Guy Bill Simmons Tweeted, “FYI: Next week is Conan’s final week hosting the Tonight Show. His staff is trying to book big guests so he goes out with a bang. It’s true..” How he knows before anyone else is anyone’s guess, but when it has comes to all the late night changes it seems like everyone else but NBC and the talk show hosts know what is really going on.
I really feel bad for Conan O’Brien because he got royally screwed with all the changes, but hopefully he will be much happier over at Fox. Where everyone assumes he will wind up…
BTW here is Craig Ferguson responding to a joke that his boss David Letterman made right before he went live on CBS’s The Late Late Show.
Today is painfully slow almost as painful as it is to watch American Idol this season. I say almost because watching General Larry Platt sing his song Pants on the Ground helped to ease the pain. I wonder if he will be this season’s William Hung? How cool would it be if the 62 year old to become the star of season 9 for American Idol?
BTW who is else is missing Paula Abdul? The guest judges, Randy Jackson and Kara DioGuardi are not enough to keep me interested.
UPDATE: Neil Young sang Pants on the Ground on Late Night on Jimmy Fallon and it is definitely different than Platt’s! I wonder who will redo it next???

Hugh Grant is in France promoting his movie Did You Hear About the Morgans? (the movie no one heard about over here in The States) and he was very expressive while being interviewed on the show Vivement Dimanche. I don’t know what it is, but there is just something so cute about him and his baby blues that I had to post his many different faces!

I am sure we all look funny when we run, but seeing these pictures of Sean Penn jogging made me laugh so I decided to share them with you! I guess now I can understand why Sean Penn attacks the paparazzi, they take pictures of him like this.
