Don’t Say It! Top Ten Lines a Woman Should Never Hear from You
I remember this one episode in the ABC series “Lost”. Sawyer, the character played by Josh Holloway was teaching Jin (played by Jin-Soo Kwon) English because he’s Korean and he does not speak the language.
Sawyer taught Jin the words “You’re right. I’m Sorry.” And something like “Those jeans don’t make you look fat”. Josh’ character said that these are the only two English phrases that he needs to learn to get to a woman’s good graces.

Just For Your Information. . . George Lopez is Angry
George Lopez just responded to his show being taken off of ABC’s lineup and has claimed that “TV just became really, really white again,” to The LA Times. “Cavemen,” based on the characters in Geico’s popular commercials, will take the place of The George Lopez Show this fall. There’s more:
So a f****** Chicano can’t be on TV but a f****** caveman can? And a Chicano with an audience already? You know when you get in this that shows do not last forever, but this was an important show and to go unceremoniously like this hurts. One hundred seventy people lost their jobs.

Rosie Shows Her Butt Again
Rosie O’Donnell must have very few friends. She is vile, full of hatred, and attacks anything that is edible. Her latest outburst is against Bill O’Reilly who stated last week that ABC should fire Rosie from The View for her damaging comments against the military and United States. Here is a look at what O’Donnell said today about O’Reilly and News Corp boss Rupert Murdoch.
Rosie O’Donnell spat back at conservative talk-show pugilist Bill O’Reilly after he called for her firing from ABC last week, comparing him to a character in George Orwell’s “1984″ who is “a fattish … man of paralyzing stupidity, a mass of imbecile enthusiasms.”
She didn’t reserve her fire for O’Reilly, however. On her blog at Rosie.com, Ro accused O’Reilly of being a totalitarian puppet of News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch, as she put it, in her lower-case verse, “like 1984/molding the facts/2 suit the needs/of big brother rupert.”
Well, Bill O. did go after Ro at least, as TMZ noted last week, calling Rosie “nutty” and “irresponsible” and suggesting that ABC should oust her from the show. Rosie went all literary-nasty on O’Reilly, comparing him to Parsons, a fellow employee of protagonist Winston Smith, whom Orwell says is “one of those completely unquestioning, devoted drudges on whom, more even than on the thought police, the stability of the Party depended.”
I believe everyone might want to tune into the factor tonight on Fox News (8pm EST) to see what Big Bill has to say in response to Rosie’s unstable ramblings. Rosie would attack her own family if it meant more face time on TV for her. Pretty sick that ‘The View’ is so desperate for ratings that they continue to let this beast appear on the show no matter who she attacks or how vile she is in doing so.

O’Reilly says ABC should fire Rosie
Controversial Fox News talk show host Bill O’Reilly is asking ABC to fire Rosie O’Donnell after Rosie’s latest tirade against the U.S. Military and her comments about the recently captured British soldiers by Iran.
FOX News’ designated flamethrower, Bill O’Reilly, slammed Rosie on “The O’Reilly Factor” last night, calling her “nutty” and “irresponsible,” and suggesting that ABC should fire O’Donnell for her provocative remarks about Iran and the war in Iraq.
Rosie, who was not a guest on O’Reilly’s show, has been anything but gentle in expressing her feelings toward U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, going so far as to suggest on her blog that the recent kidnapping of British sailors was designed by the U.S. and Britain to help escalate hostilities against Iran. On “The View” this week, Rosie also challenged viewers to Google “Gulf of Tonkin,” a reference to the controversial naval attacks in Southeast Asia that led to the U.S.’s increased involvement in the Vietnam conflict.
Now, O’Reilly is calling for ABC to be “held accountable” for Rosie’s remarks, especially after the network axed Bill Maher post-9/11 for suggesting that the terrorists who attacked the World Trade Center were “courageous.” ABC, for its part, had no comment this morning.
Be sure to vote for Rosie in Bumpshack’s Celebrity March Madness Final Four. Rosie is currently in the Final Four going toe-to-toe with Michael Jackson to see who will advance to compete against Britney Spears in the finals for the title of Hollywood’s Maddest Celebrity.

I thought the ‘Bachelor’ had better Taste
Email I received today regarding ‘The Bachelor‘. I have been in talks about appearing on a couple of reality TV shows, including ‘The Bachelor’, before but I am not sure exactly which one would be the most enjoyable to do. Drop a comment with your ideal Reality TV show that you would love to appear on.
I’m a Casting Producer for the Bachelor on ABC Televison and I’m trying to
get in contact with Joshua Holmes regarding the possibility of being our
next bachelor for the 11th season- assuming he’s still single ; )I’ve attached a copy of our official press release.
If he could contact me directly or if I could be given contact information
for him, I’d appreciate it.Thanks.

ABC picks up 11 Series for Fall Lineup
ABC’s fall lineup is starting to take shape. The network has announced 11 shows, including Lost, Grey’s Anatomy and Desperate Housewives, that they have been picked up for the fall season.
Rookies “Ugly Betty,” “Brothers & Sisters” and “Men In Trees” have been given an early second-season order.
Dramas “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Lost” and “Boston Legal,” dramedy “Desperate Housewives,” reality series “Dancing with the Stars,” “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” and “The Bachelor” and late-night talk show “Jimmy Kimmel Live” also have also been picked up for next season, joining recently renewed “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” “Supernanny” and “Wife Swap.”Though the pickups for hits like “Grey’s,” “Lost, “Housewives,” “Betty,” “Dancing” and “Home Edition” have been widely expected, the early vote of confidence for freshmen “Men In Trees” and “Boston Legal,” which have developed smaller but devoted fan base, was somewhat of a surprise. Remaining on the fence is another drama with limited following, sophomore “What About Brian.” No half-hour comedy made the cut for an early pickup, though veterans “According to Jim” and “George Lopez” are considered strong candidates to return.

Geico Cavemen focus of ABC TV Pilot
The cavemen from the Geico insurance ads have a chance of making it big in Hollywood. Writers are preparing a pilot script for ABC that will hopefully persuade company executives to pick up the show.
In the ads, cavemen appear insulted by a Geico pitchman’s claim that the company’s Web site is so easy to use that “even a caveman can do it.”
The potential series, one of 14 pilots that will be produced by Touchstone television this spring, features the cavemen as they “struggle with prejudice on a daily basis as they strive to live the lives of normal thirty-somethings in 2007 Atlanta.”
One can assume that getting a pilot done in Hollywood is so easy that a caveman can do it. Each studio has 13-17 pilot’s for each season. Usually only 2-5 are picked up and become an actual TV series. A caveman movie was made back in 1981 staring Ringo Star and Dennis Quaid, but it featured a different type of caveman species.
