Wow Diva called it right yestersay on Stanley Tucci getting a nomination. -- nm - Loyola Feb 2, 08:59 2
- That was pretty much a lock nomination though. -- nm - MDH Feb 2, 09:00 1
  - Was it? I didn't think he got a nod at the GGs. Maybe he did, can't remember. -- nm - Loyola Feb 2, 09:01
Blind Item from Ausiello: Feud throws hit show "into chaos" - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 2, 08:56 16
- What about 2 and a Half Men? Chuck Lorre does that and Big Bang, right? -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 2, 09:01
- What's Aaron Sorkin doing nowadays? - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:57
- The only series I can think of with that kind of dust-up history are CSI and NCIS ... -- nm - Beryllium Feb 2, 08:57 2
  - I don't even know the shows, and this is still my choice. -- nm - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 2, 09:00
  - *ding* -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Feb 2, 08:58
- NCIS. -- nm - Remlik Feb 2, 08:57 8
  - But they already moved Bellisario away from the show for this reason - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:58 7
    - but now NCIS is run by Shane Black who is also doing NCIS:LA so that could be the distraction. (nm). - howie Feb 2, 09:00
    - yeah. but Shane Brennen who runs the show now developed NCIS:LA & is splitting time between both.... - Remlik Feb 2, 08:59 1
      - Yeah, Harmon's awesome. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 2, 09:00
    - agreed. That's why I'm leaning towards CSI (I'm sure you remember the Stokes/Sara fiasco, when they both got fired) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 2, 08:58 3
      - I don't recall that exactly....their issues seemed to be all about $ instead of input. - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:59 1
        
        true. But he's Fishburne, he's got the clout to step up and speak out. -- nm - Remlik Feb 2, 09:00
      - and Grissum didn't want any spinoffs either. -- nm - Beaker Feb 2, 08:59
- Grey's? -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 2, 08:57
- Castle? (cause Fillon already freaked on his costar) -- nm - Beaker Feb 2, 08:57

- It snuck it while the laptop was off. -- nm - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 2, 08:57
- The Totally David Level Crazy virus? Toast. Once infected... -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 2, 08:54
- Why did you turn it on? -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Feb 2, 08:53
Denzel Washington's house -- (link) - CrankYanker Feb 2, 08:50 1
- I wouldn't want to mow that lawn. -- nm - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 2, 08:56
House was also good last night - spoils - Beaker Feb 2, 08:49 4
- I don't. I want Wilson and House to deliver a ton of hurt to Cuddy's boyfriend. -- nm - crash davis Feb 2, 08:53 1
  - hater -- nm - Beaker Feb 2, 08:56
- Word around the campfire was they were gonna spin off a series with the PI. - Jim Feb 2, 08:50 1

- *you deserve no respect* -- nm - CrankYanker Feb 2, 08:49
sitwap - billionaire 'buys' Lindsay Lohan for $150,000 - crash davis Feb 2, 08:45 14
- Really, if you had the money to do something like this, would Lindsay Lohan even be in your top 1000 list? -- nm - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 2, 08:58 4
  - no. -- nm - znufrii Feb 2, 09:00
  - If you are into drugs, sure. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Feb 2, 09:00
  - I'm just boggled that the dude hired Sophia Loren and Raquel Welch, and his daughter sets him up with Lindsay and Paris Hilton. -- nm - crash davis Feb 2, 09:00
  - Pretty sure his daughter is playing a prank on him -- nm - Roger More Feb 2, 08:59
- in crack -- nm - con_carne Feb 2, 08:53
- He's not helping! -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 2, 08:49
- do you realize that if each of the active members on this board each put in $500, we could have bought Lindsay Lohan? -- nm - pixie Feb 2, 08:47 4
  - And sent her to Antarctica? -- nm - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 2, 08:59
  - and I suppose you get her, since you live closest? -- nm - crash davis Feb 2, 08:49 1
    - It would be a bit strange for her to live in a box without doing lines of coke. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:50
  - what would one do with Lindsay Lohan? - groiny Feb 2, 08:48
- but what will she do for booze when that runs out in March?! -- nm - Beaker Feb 2, 08:47

  - United We Stand -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Feb 2, 08:44
You know, God bless Yvonne Strahovski for her willingness just about every single ep of Chuck to give us a skimpy clothing scene. - HdnAgnda Feb 2, 08:41 39
- They make it so obvious now I find it a little annoying - Guigue Feb 2, 08:43 38
  - "now"? (nm) - musubi Feb 2, 09:02
  - I think Season 3 has been superb in all regards except the guest star guy. (spoils) - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:47 28
    - the whole Morgan/Ellie/Awesome plot is pretty strong. - Remlik Feb 2, 08:53 1
      - oh totally - Jovian Feb 2, 08:57
    - I do appreciate the meta-casting of the week before, Superman and Lana Lang -- nm - crash davis Feb 2, 08:50 13
      - I just wish they'd get the talented people from Smallville. - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:51 12
        
        I do like Kreuk much better on Chuck than on Smallville. - the wrong element, bad guy Feb 2, 08:53 5
        
        Yeah, the writers did her no favors on Smallville; that's for sure. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:54
        
        Trish's opinion of Kreuk has done a 180 these last two weeks. She wonders where this chick was on Smallville. -- nm - crash davis Feb 2, 08:54 3
        
        Smallville Episode 1 ending: "Lana, I wish I could tell you the truth." Season 6 ending. "Lana, I wish I could tell you the truth." - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:55 2
        
        oh yeah -- nm - crash davis Feb 2, 08:57
        
        the only time she was any good on the show was when she was Mrs. Luthor at the start of the marriage... - Remlik Feb 2, 08:57
        
        Rosenbaum as Shaw would have been perfect -- nm - Jovian Feb 2, 08:53
        
        I agree with you idea for Rosenbaum. I'll just say, I'm enjoying the work of Hartley, and especially Durance, more and more - crash davis Feb 2, 08:52 4
        
        Hartley has really grown. Glad you joind Team Durance finally. And Welling seems really invested this year. -- nm - Remlik Feb 2, 08:56 2
        
        I tentatively signed up for Team Durance a couple seasons ago when she came out of the water in the red bikini. But I'm actually appreciating - crash davis Feb 2, 08:59 1
        
        She's really got the 'plucky gal friday' thing down. -- nm - Remlik Feb 2, 09:01
        
        word -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Feb 2, 08:53
    - and the best thing, it's on NBC so almost guaranteed to get picked up for season 4 -- nm - Beaker Feb 2, 08:48 10
      - "Chuck, starring Jay Leno!" -- nm - Guigue Feb 2, 08:49
      - Uh, it almost did not make it to season 3. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Feb 2, 08:48 8
        
        It's probably one of the 3-4 highest rated shows they have. - the wrong element, bad guy Feb 2, 09:00
        
        NBC has 5 more hours of prime time to fill next year. -- nm - Ender Feb 2, 08:51
        
        It's numbers should allow it #4. Maybe not on other networks but most certainly on this one. -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 2, 08:50
        
        It's ratings have held very well so far, and they have a lack of programming for what time they have available so..... - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:49
        
        Yeah, that was before NBC amputated the wrong foot whilst shooting themselves in the face -- nm - Beryllium Feb 2, 08:49 3
        
        And you have faith in them getting it right now... why? -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Feb 2, 08:54 1
        
        I'm assuming they haven't learned, and are thus doing things "by the numbers" still. Here are the numbers. -- (link) - Beryllium Feb 2, 08:56
        
        *ding* and it's ratings thus far have been great (NBC great, but still good) -- nm - Beaker Feb 2, 08:50
    - I admit, I haven't seen the last 2 episodes I think (was it new last week?) -- nm - Guigue Feb 2, 08:48
  - See, I never saw that they would go where they have gone this season (spoilers) - amoxy Feb 2, 08:45
  - Shut your mouth! -- nm - Reagen Feb 2, 08:44 6
    - They should make a spinoff with only her character in skimpy clothes - Guigue Feb 2, 08:46 4
      - We really need her and Ellie to intersect. -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 2, 08:52 1
        
        Have Sarah bring Karina along. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 2, 08:52
      - there you go. -- nm - Reagen Feb 2, 08:49
