Mariah Carey explains the meaning behind All I Want for Christmas Is You |

We all know the song All I Want for Christmas Is You, but do you know how Mariah Carey came up with it?
The singer reveals in her CBS Christmas special that the record company told her to release a Christmas album, and that is when she wrote the holiday staple.
The words she put to paper come from the Christmases she had as a kid. Even though her mom, who was raising two kids by herself, weren’t the best, she found a way to make them special. Her mom would wrap up things like fruit and say it was from the cat or dog. So Mimi didn’t need a lot as a kid as long as she had her mom.
And that is not all we find out about the single. Mariah used not to be able to listen to the song because she would find things wrong with it. However, as more and more people told her why the song is special to them, she has learned to love the tune that will forever haunt our Novembers and Decembers.
Merry Christmas to All debuts on Tuesday and will stream on Paramount+.

CBS picked up its first new show for next season |

Earlier this week, NBC picked up Quantum Leap for a second season. Today, CBS said we are going to one-up you. So they picked their first new show for next season.
Justin Hartley is going to star in and executive produce The Next Game. Based on the bestselling novel by Jeffery Deaver, THE NEVER GAME features Hartley as lone-wolf survivalist Colter Shaw, who roams the country as a “reward seeker,” using his expert tracking skills to help private citizens and law enforcement solve all manner of mysteries while contending with his own fractured family.
I am going to sound like a Grinch, but I bet it will be 13 and done. Most early picks up, turn out to be disappointments.

CBS sinks The Real Love Boat, but it is rescued by Paramount+ |
| October 28th, 2022 under CBS, Jerry O'Connell/Rebecca Romijn. [ Comments: none ]

|  Jerry O’Connell/Instagram We are a little over a month into the Fall TV season, and today we found out which is the first show banished to streaming.
That series is The Real Love Boat. According to Deadline, this upcoming week’s episode and all of the remaining ones will move from CBS to Paramount+.
The reality dating show is hosted by real-life couple Jerry O’Connell and Rebecca Romijn. Each week, they travel on a Princess Cruise Ship to romantic destinations with singles who are trying to find love. Unlike other dating programs, they bring in new singles at each port for the old ones to consider.
I think it will do better on the streaming service because it is younger and hipper. I also wonder if the series would still be on CBS if they had the eliminated singles walk the plank at the end of each episode. But I am a sadist and would enjoy seeing women in evening gowns and full makeup jump into the ocean and get soaking wet.

The Love Boat cast meets The Real Love Boat one! |
| October 24th, 2022 under CBS, Jerry O'Connell/Rebecca Romijn, Jill Whelan. [ Comments: none ]

In case you missed it, CBS brought back The Love Boat as a dating show starring Jerry O’Connell and Rebecca Romijn as the hosts.
Over the weekend, the crew from The Real Love Boat met the cast from the scripted series. So we got to see Doc (Bernie Kopell), Gopher (Fred Grandy), Isaac (Ted Lange), Julie (Lauren Tewes), and Vicki (Jill Whelan) together again.
They all look so amazing; I don’t know why they are reprising their roles every week on the reality reimagining. Although Lange was the premiere and Whelan will be on the show this Wednesday at 9p. So at least we get to see them.
There is only one person missing, besides the late Gavin MacLeod, and that is Charo. It is a travesty she is not entertaining the singles on the cruise! Cuchi Cuchi!
