Actress, legendary standup comic, and current co-host of “The View” Whoopi Goldberg has signed on to star in the Muppets Christmas Eve TV show special “Letters to Santa – A Muppets Christmas”.
This is just a one off TV show of the Muppets, it is not to be confused with the new Disney Muppet film that Jason Segal and Nicholas Stoller are writing for the big screen.

The Muppets still rule the world.

I didn’t watch “90210” on the premiere day that it aired, but I did record it on my DVR. The two hour premiere film of the new “90210” spinoff show.
My thoughts? It was the most piece of crap I’ve ever seen. One word: BORING!
I only saw the first half hour of it, then I hit the “stop” button on the remote and erased it immediately on my DVR. I prefer the classic series with the original cast of “Beverly Hills”. Sorry, but I’ll never watch this show on a regular basis.
Score for 90210 = * (1 star as in poor)

Barack Obama will appear on the “O’ Reilly Factor” to be interviewed by Bill O’ Reilly tonight at 8 p.m. on FOX. I’m sure Barack will have a lot to say about Palin’s speech from last night so this ought to be interesting. Will Barack and Mr. Bill get into a heated argument tonight? They probably will. I’ll be watching. I’ll post youtube videos of this interview later in the week for those who don’t get to see it.

In the new upcoming season of Saturday Night Live, the golden boy Michael Phelps will host and will act in various comedy segments for the 34th Season Premiere of SNL on Sept 13th. Lil Wayne will be the musical guest that night.
It’s been said that the kid has never done any acting in his life before and it will be interesting to see how he does since this is live TV and all.
The Associated Press reports:

SNL probably won’t give Phelps many lines to say in his scripts since he never acted before, they’ll probably give him simple stuff so the audience can laugh at everything he says no matter what.
They’re gonna turn Phelps into a big TV star now. Don’t be surprised if they do the same to Shawn Johnson as well.

There he is, the man himself Henry Winkler seems to be proud and thrilled that a bronze statue has been made of his own TV character for the “Happy Days” TV series. The ceremony happened at 10:00 a.m. this morning when the statue was first unveiled after completing it in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Most of the original “Happy Days” cast members from the series were there to see the event in person including Tom Bosley and Marion Ross who played Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham, Richard’s parents. Everybody in the cast were there to celebrate the moment except the only cast member wasn’t there was Ron Howard himself of course which I’m sure he was too busy filming “Angels and Demons” film. Ron Howard was the main star of the “Happy Days” TV series who played the leading role of Richard Cunningham.

About a month ago, I reported that Laurence Fishburne was in negotations to star in “CSI” to take over William Peterson. It seems that Fishburne is game for the TV series because he just signed a deal, so it’s official. Laurence Fishburne to star in CSI.

Nice! I’ll have to watch the first episode that Fishburne will star in to see how he does.

Tori Spelling just recently dropped out of the new Beverly Hills 90210 spinoff due to do a dispute over pay. The studio offered her a certain pay but it appears she wants more money.
Her former co-stars Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth were payed way more than Tori, and Tori complains she deserves the right to get payed equal with them. The network refused Tori’s request, and the actress never showed up for filming.

I’m on her side on this one. Tori Spelling is a 90210 veteran too and deserve to get payed more. This isn’t fair for Tori at all.
It’s not an ego thing with Tori wanting more money, it’s about making things right and fair.
She’s doing a good thing.
