Big Brother 10: Finale Recap

September 17, 2008 Channel Guide Contributor Comments Off

Posted by johnnysweeptheleg After two-plus months in the house, a long summer of Big Brother finally came to a close. They say the game is much tougher than it looks. Jerry walked into the house looking like Ryan Gosling and walked out looking like James Garner. The game puts a man through many changes. The finale begins with a trip to the Jury House as everyone wonders who will be the next to join them. When Jerry walks through the door, the jury members don’t exactly welcome him. They ask Jerry what happened in the house. He says is all […]

September 16, 2008 Barb Oates 1

Bring your tissues because best-selling author, personal motivator, former private eye, father to seven and veteran “locator” Troy Dunn offers an emotional 30 minutes of real-life drama as he finds and reunites people in WE tv’s new series The Locator, airing Saturdays beginning Sept. 6.

Their clients range from an adopted daughter seeking her birth mother to a leukemia-diagnosed mother wanting to see […]

“One Tree Hill”: The Slippery Slope NEVER ENDS 3

September 16, 2008 Channel Guide Staff Comments Off

Posted by: haro1d I was going to say that last night’s OTH episode was little more than a bummer. As expected, much of the time was spent in mourning for Quentin, who was shot and killed at the end of last week’s episode. Essentially, nearly every scene was a part of a eulogy to Q, with everyone searching for meaning in his death, from Lucas and Peyton, Nathan and Haley, right down to little Jamie. Even Samantha Walker, the shoplifting girl who may or may not have anything to do with Brooke’s battered condition, turned in a sensitive essay about […]

“One Tree Hill” Shenanigans In North Carolina

September 15, 2008 Channel Guide Staff Comments Off

Posted by: haro1d They’re well-meaning — you have to give them that. Those folks at One Tree Hill are teaming up with the USO for a live concert event for military personnel. The event will take place this Friday, Sept. 19, at the Marine Corps Air Station New River in Jacksonville, North Carolina. Among the featured acts will be Angels & Airwaves, occasional OTH guest star Kate Voegele, as well as OTH’s Haley James Scott, Bethany Joy Galeotti. Military personnel, if you’re into it, show up with your service I.D. and you’ll walk right in. I’m sure there will be […]

Versus Stirs The Pot With "Sports Soup"

September 15, 2008 Ryan Berenz 1

Posted by Cubicle QB One of the consistently funnier shows on cable is E!’s The Soup, wherein host Joel McHale gives viewers the weirdest and funniest moments from reality and talk shows and skewers them with witty commentary. I always thought this format would work well for a sports comedy show, and Versus thought so, too. On Oct. 14, Versus will debut Sports Soup with host Matt Iseman. This biweekly half-hour series will air Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10pm ET. “This will be the Chad Johnson of sports shows — a little obnoxious, usually hilarious and so fascinating that you […]

"E:60": Parkersburg, Iowa; A South Bronx Tale; And Turf 2 Surf

September 15, 2008 Ryan Berenz Comments Off

Features on the Sept. 16 (7pm ET) edition of ESPN’s sports newsmagazine series E:60: Touchdowns and Tornadoes — Parkersburg, Iowa, is a small rural town of 1,900 residents where high-school football is king. Despite its size, under the stewardship of head coach Ed Thomas, the football program has produced four current NFL players (Jacksonville Jaguar Brad Meester, Detroit Lion Jared Devries, Denver Bronco Casey Weigmann and Green Bay Packer Aaron Kampman). When the town was hit by a tornado on May 25, the community rallied around its coach to get the Aplington-Parkersburg High School football field ready to host the […]

The Most Exhaustively Researched Definitive Sexiest Sportscaster Poll

September 12, 2008 Ryan Berenz 3

Posted by Cubicle QB Yet another Sexiest Sportcaster Poll is out, and this one from Co-Ed Magazine looks to be about the most extensively researched and provocatively presented ranking of its type that we’ve seen yet. They’re not just sticking to the obvious U.S. broadcast and cable networks — these guys have sought out sideline babes from the far end of the dial across the world. There are also some good picks from local affiliates and from the regional cable sports nets like the Mtn, Big Ten Network and NESN, that often get overlooked because they don’t have the full […]

Big Brother 10: 9/11 Recap

September 12, 2008 Channel Guide Contributor Comments Off

Posted by johnnysweeptheleg When we last left the remaining houseguests, Keesha had just been evicted and Dan was pretending to be upset with Memphis for doing so. Dan, Memphis, and Jerry were all strapped to the top of a plane and were competing in an endurance competition for the first leg of the final three-part HOH. Dan continues with this faux-anger at the faux-hawked Memphis, and it borderlines as overacting, which scares Memphis. Luckily, this is Jerry we’re talking about — and he isn’t the most observant fella. And obviously not the most balanced individual, either, as he’s the first […]

What’s Your Sign Project Runway?

September 10, 2008 Ruth Boulet 1

Ok, Terri’s just getting mean. She’s talking about the ‘witch’ being dead, meaning Stella. Come on now, Terri. No need to be like that. We all know you want to win. Ragging on other people won’t get you there. Special guests are then brought out & it’s all the designers that have been eliminated. Jerell thinks it’s good to see them, but it depends on why they’re there. They’re there to help the designers still in the competition to create an avant garde look. The look must be inspired by the astrological sign of one person on the team. I […]

ANTM Brings Back Posing Master Benny Ninja

September 10, 2008 Ruth Boulet Comments Off

We get right into things this week — Benny Ninja tells the girls that it’s time to learn how to strike a killer pose. He twirls around a box to reveal a model all contorted up in the box. She’s an Australian model who’s crazy flexible. Crazay flexible. The girls have to pose in a red net hanging from the ceiling. Nikeysha says she needs to learn to shut up. She talks about it. A lot. So the girls of course decide to jump into the pool and play truth or dare. Elina kisses Clark, Sheena dances around — the […]
