Randy Newman...Ellen Degeneres opening the show?

Didn't see a thread so here's one to yakk on.

It's just not a tragedy until Elton John does a song about it.

[Bubbette]

I'm confused. What are we watching now? I blinked and it's a different show.

[clintonh8r]

is it over yet?

[roylene]

Rachael Rae is funnier than Chris Rock. Humor has to have some bases in reality to be funny. Chris Rock has no bases is reality, that's his problem.

[spectre]

I can hardly wait...:)

[RummyChick]

NBC is doing a hatchet job tonight.

[Skywarner]

"Looks like main deal is over but it looks like action over on CBS."

Are they typing any memos with a proportionally spaced font??

[NormB]

Every time I see/hear/read Alec Baldwin my blood boils a little.

He should be doing jail time for threatening Henry Hyde (and his family). He is like the poster boy of liberal nutcases.

I feel bad I only answer you in short lines but my laptop is on my lap, hard to type.

I loved the comment one FReeper had about MJ's upcoming "Katrina" song:

"MY GOD! HAVEN'T THESE PEOPLE SUFFERED ENOUGH???"

[berkeleybeej]

Appears to be over, but now my cat is gacking for no apparent reason. Hairballs, here we come.

[lainie]

You got me! I don't get it, not a bit. Breach of contract anyone? Hello?

HAHA, check this out:

You know those hard-pressed rock stars who are being deprived of their rightful dues by all you evil file sharers?

Rod Stewart cancelled a show at a Las Vegas casino, in 2000, but kept the $2 million advance fee.

“He and his doctors testified he was later diagnosed with thyroid cancer and had two tumors surgically removed in May 2000,” says the Associated Press. “One was cancerous, one was benign.” Stewart said he didn't "fully recover his trademark raspy voice in time for the Las Vegas show".

But a panel decided Stewart should pay the $2 million back, plus interest.

One of his lawyers said he’ll appeal.

I got cancer. I want two million dollars.

[Northern Yankee]

Saw Dr. John down at Miwaukee's Summerfest.

He was authetic in every way.

[cajungirl]

LOL!

He could make up new words for the Marilyn and Diana songs.

Goodbye Lusiana Rose,,,yadda

[Skywarner]

"NBC is doing a hatchet job tonight."

Don't let it be said that they let the facts get in the way of their agenda.

[MozartLover]

It's the one where he's a substitute music teacher. Rent it if you can.......I laughed myself silly.:)

[clintonh8r]

That was rock'n'roll....

[cajungirl]

Me too,,it just disappeared.

[lainie]

Yep, it's over. You survived!
