On March 11th, ABC is going to air American Idol and Fox’s counter programming will most likely kill it in the ratings. That’s because they have a lost interview with OJ Simpson where he describes what he thinks happened to his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman the night they were brutally murdered.
In 2006, he sat down with publisher, producer and host Judith Regan and that interview has not aired until now. OJ Simpson: The Lost Confession? will have limited commercials and is hosted by Soledad O’Brien. The two hour special will air a domestic violence PSA and it will also have a panel of analysts who will discuss the interview, providing timely analysis and context footage.
According to The NY Times Fox was going to air this interview in 2006, but pulled it because of outcry and criticism from both the public and the families of the victims.
Hopefully this interview will not be another Geraldo Rivera opens up Al Capone’s empty vault. Which means I will be watching every minute of it like we did the trial. Will you be watching this or Idol?
Not only is Kristen Schaal a new mom on The Last Man on Earth, she is one in real life too. On February 11th, she announced on social media, “After years of trying and some experimental fertility treatments, Rich [Blomquist] and I had a baby! Everyone meet Ruby!” Today, she debuted Ruby, and she is a true gem!
The couple who wrote the book, Sexy Book of Sexy Sex, have been married for 5 years and this is their first child. Although, some might say their book was their first one!
Days after Charlie Walk was accused of sexual harassment, he is out of the two jobs. According to Rolling Stone he was placed on leave from Republic Records during the investigation. They label said, “Republic Records is committed to a safe workplace environment where employees are treated fairly and respectfully,” and because of that they hired an outside law firm to do the investigation.
Then hours later, his lawyer issued a statement about his role on Fox’s music competition show, The Four, with Diddy, Meghan Trainor and DJ Khaled. Attorney, Patricia Glaser, gave this statement to the magazine, “Out of respect for the contestants, my fellow judges and everyone involved with the show, I have made the decision not to attend the finale of The Four,” Walk said. “I do not want my presence to be a distraction. Needless to say this is very upsetting. Although I continue to support the ‘Me Too’ movement, there has been an extreme rush to judgment against me in this particular case which is unfair and inconsistent with anything that even actually happened. I welcome any investigation so that in short order these unfounded and hurtful accusations can be put to rest.”
The accusations come from Tristan Coopersmith, who said that he made that vulgar comments to her and inappropriately touched her when she worked for him.
When it comes to Fox, he will be part of tonight’s pretaped episode, but will not be part of next week’s live season finale. They have yet to announce a replacement, but I say they just go with host Fergie, who has been there since day one. That and she has been doing music longer than most of the contestants have been alive, so she knows her stuff.

Even though 9-1-1 has just aired 2 episodes, Fox has already picked up the show about first responders for a second season. The news is no surprise because the Ryan Murphy series has been killing it in the ratings. Which is no shock to me because I am already loving the drama that stars Connie Britton, Peter Krause and Angela Bassett. It is the perfect mix of showing us what it is like to be on the dangerous job and life when you are not on it.
When we last left off with The Last Man on Earth, we caught a quick glimpse of Fred Armisen as he made his debut on the brilliant, touching and funny sitcom. Tonight at 9:30p on Fox, we get to learn a lot more about his character Karl in a standalone episode.
Karl is a guy who lives on his own. The type of guy who goes out on dates with a Leighton Meester type, but goes home all by himself.
Then one day he makes a mistake and he flees to Mexico to start a new life. On the way there, he meets our special guest star of the night and they share an unforgettable moment. When he settles in Mexico, he begins his new life. Just when he decides to change his ways, the virus happens. Now everyone around him is dead and he is living all by himself.
That is until Tandy (Will Forte) and Tood (Mel Rodriguez) find him. What happens next, we will have to wait until next week to find out.
What I am not telling you, is why I will never be able to look at Armisen the same way. Why? You will just have to tune in to find out. Not only for that but all because LMOE is a witty comedy with so much heart, it will leave you starting the work week off with a huge smile on your face. As long as you don’t hone in on the fact that it is post-apocalyptic show about a virus that wiped out almost everyone on Earth and the few survivors are trying to repopulate the world. Survivors who get to live out some of their fantasies because who is going to stop them? See a fell good way to end your Sunday nights.
