Last night on NBC’s America’s Got Talent we got to see our version of Susan Boyle, and I have to say I think that Kari Callen is even better than her!!! Kari like Susan has never been on a date and she can sing, but unlike Susan her story is so much more touching. She was born with a cleft lip and was once told she was too ugly to sing on a cruise ship, but her voice is so beautiful you overlook it! Just amazing! I hope she goes really far in this competition and everything she does because she has such an amazing spirit!!!
Next Tuesday at 9p on NBC it is the MySpace auditions and those should be really interesting and unique!!!
Tonight during NBC’s America’s Got Talent they premiered Mariah Carey’s new video for Obsessed and on August 5th she will be performing on the show! That is a great get for the show, but it helps when your husband is the host! BTW Nick Cannon has been doing a great job in the position! He is just so warm to the contestants and his comedic timing has been perfect. Now back to the show that Mariah will performing on, that will be the first results show so that means 3 more weeks of auditions and Vegas eliminations.
Have you guys found who you think has talent yet? I have a few people and animals that I think have a good shot of having a million dollar talent!
Meteor is crashing in to NBC tonight at 9p and you want to be there to watch this 2 Sunday night 4 hour event! Meteor is an action packed suspenseful 4 hour event that also has heart. I am sucker for disaster movies, and I really loved this one. It really is a thrill ride, that you don’t want to end but it has to because otherwise it would be the end of the world.
Meteor starts off tonight with comet crashing into one of the largest Asteroids, Kassandra sending her straight towards us. Christopher Lloyd and Marla Sokoloff are in Mexico and they have the coordinates that can stop her, but they have to get from there to JPL where the meteor specialists are meeting to help stop Kassandra. As they travel north they will deal loss signals, cars dying and death all while pieces of Kassandra are coming down around them and the world. Meanwhile back at JPL they are trying to stop the incoming smaller rocks while waiting trying to figure out when is the best time to hit Kassandra without the help of the two scientists who can stop it. Jason Alexander is at JPL mapping out the best plan and he is great in this dramatic role.
Outside of JPL there is a small town that was one of the first places hit by meteor rock and through this town we see how people deal with this disaster. We see the good, the bad and the ugly come out as they face impending doom. Stacy Keach is great as the town sheriff trying to keep his town together as they lose it. There are few scenes with him that really touched me because it was great to see the people help each other through the crisis. Also in this town is a family that trying to make it through. The mom is a doctor who has to try to save all the people that have been injured by the rocks including a school bus full of kids that included her son. When a meteor strikes the hospital and it falls down around them they are trapped inside but apart from each other because of debris. Her husband and a firefighter risk all to get them out. Kenneth Mitchell plays the dad and he is used to playing end of the world roles after starring in Jericho and he is just as good in this role!
The one storyline I was not in love with is the one where Billy Campbell is a cop who tries to get his crocked ex-partner to turn himself in, but instead of going to jail he plans to hurt the people closest to Billy, his daughter and his dad the town sheriff of that small town, Stacy Keach. Although I didn’t care that much for this part of the movie it all fits together by the end of the movie.
Tune into the beginning of Meteor at 9p on NBC for a movie that will really make an impact!!! And make sure to set your Tivos for next week to see how it all ends because you are not going to want to miss that.
NBC announced today that Parenthood will not premiere until the midseason because of Maura Tierny’s undisclosed illness according to The Hollywood Reporter.
“Start of production on NBC Universal’s new series ‘Parenthood’ has been postponed for eight weeks due to medical evaluation that valued cast member Maura Tierney is undergoing,” NBC said in a statement. “The top priority for NBC, Universal Media Studios and Imagine Television is the well-being of Ms. Tierney. We are unable to release further details and ask that you respect her privacy at this time.”
You have to respect NBC for holding off until midseason and not recasting her part because they don’t want to wait for her to get better. Hopefully she will get well soon.
Mercy which was to debut later on in the season will take over Parenthood’s slot for the time being.

Some how the trailer leaked for NBC’s Day One and I am glad it did because how thrilling does that show look?
“Day One” tells the story of life on earth following a global catastrophe that has devastated the world’s infrastructures. Beginning with the immediate aftermath of the cataclysmic event, an eclectic band of survivors — played by Adam Campbell (“Date Movie”), Catherine Dent (“The Shield”), Julie Gonzalo (“Eli Stone”), David Lyons (“ER”), Derek Mio (“Greek”), Carly Pope (“24”), Thekla Reuten (“Sleeper Cell”) and Addison Timlin (“Cashmere Mafia”) — strives to rebuild society as they unravel the mysteries of what happened and face their uncertain future. The group, all residents of one apartment building in suburban Van Nuys, Calif., embarks on a quest for survival and discovers that hope is found in small victories — and heroes are born every day.
They really did a great job on the special effects and I really love the feel of the show. I like the character development that you see in that video. Not only are they doing a show about the end of the world, but they are also creating show where you are going to care about the people who are trying to save it.
