The Hoff's Got Talent!

A&E has officially pulled the plug on The Hasselhoff’s reality television show, canceling after just two episodes.

“The Hasselhoffs” reality television show was centered on the former “Knight Rider” and “Baywatch” star with daughters, Hayley (18) and Taylor Ann (20), who were both trying to break into show business (More specifically, music).

According to friends, the fate of "The Hasselhoffs" had been determined on its first night when the second consecutive episode saw viewing figures drop from 718,000 to 505,000.

I was not able to view the initial, nor subsequent episode of the program, however are we beginning to notice a pattern of predictability?

A reality show premier has become similar to a movie premier, where in which the numbers (Viewership for TV, Box Office receipts for movies) must show clear signs of potential profit.

If recent history is an indication (Sarah Palin's Alaska/TLC), most reality programs typically receive high viewership for the initial episode, due to heavy promotion and marketing, only to quickly drop the following week.

The family filmed 10 episodes - with one showing their dog having therapy for tennis ball addiction. Execs had hoped it would match the success of fly-on-the-wall show The Osbournes but, according to sources, the remaining eight episodes will not be aired, until further notice.

First to admit, I have quite a fondness and think the world of David Hasselhoff (No, I'm not German). Hasselhoff never fails to present a high level of entertaining 'machismo' and often a shameless characterization of his brazen bravado (Frequently refers to himself in third person).

I grew up watching "Knight Rider" (More or less) and even occasionally enjoyed watching the show Baywatch - everyone has seen Baywatch at one point or another.

Having said, it is likely that 'The Hoff' knows something in which we are all unaware. After all, he has with stood the test of time spanning many decades of television: Knight Ridder, Baywatch, America's Got Talent, Dancing with the Stars, numerous music videos, a Roast, a drunken cheeseburger viral video, and a self-titled reality show.

By all intents and purposes, 'Hoff' has relished in a long-time music career throughout Europe (Particularly Germany - where Germans LOVE David Hasselhoff), and has a full schedule of concert tour dates.

Hello? 'The Hoff ' even has his own iPhone App - You know you've made it big when you have your own iPhone App and is active on Twitter.

One lesson to be learned from 'The Hoff' is that he does not take himself too seriously and has incredible interaction, appreciation for his fans - This could quite possibly be the secret to longevity in Hollywood stardom.

Recently I had the pleasure of being stuck in traffic right behind 'The Hoff', our vehicles were literally bumper-to-bumper for a good 40 minutes. I did not even have a chance to say "Hello" as I was on the phone in heavy negotiation...I slowed and waved upon passing his vehicle.

And, now for the good news...

The 58-year-old actor, who was once a judge on “America’s Got Talent”, will now be one of the esteemed judges on "Britain's Got Talent" - thus replacing Piers Morgan. It was announced in the spring of 2010 that Morgan would be the successor to the retiring Larry King (Larry King Live/CNN).

Go Hoff!

She's Got The Look...

Hey you!

What a week. Big huge numbers for old Indy Jones (300+ Million, Worldwide), the season finale of American Idol and Top Chef, and the new Sex and The City movie opens this week - think that about covers everything in world of news, major events and politics (Lol).

It's amazing, I have been meaning to talk to you about a few things and when I am away - I have thousands of ideas of topics for our discussion; A literal firestorm of thought. Then, for some reason, as soon as I step back into the office *Presto* all thoughts are gone.

Let us Return to T-V LAND
As I am in my office, I had a chance to review the promo episode for a new show called She's Got The Look (TV LAND, Allison Grodner Productions) and I have a few comments (Mostly praise) and a few hand slapping complaints....

First the good:
As you may recall, I have a certain fondness for the fashion industry and just as you, a fascination concerning the world of modelling (Thank you Tyra "Bringing it to us, for we would all be lost" Banks).

Really my interests are related to fashion in general and when I am not pursuing my latest entrepreneurial muse (My Internet companies and investments), dreaming up new bombastic ideas for TV shows (It always begins with "Wouldn't it be great?"), or romancing my gorgeous 'Comic-Book Movie lovin' man (He is waiting for HULK 2 and largely disagrees with my analysis that ALL COMIC BOOK MOVIES ARE THE SAME)...I LOVE to go shopping!

Fact is, I have concluded that it does not really matter the object of desire as long as there are plenty in various colors and styles...I have only met one other person who could out shop me - my own dear mother. I displace complete blame on the fashion industry.

Now then, back to the subject. Some time back, I had Blogged about a show for aspiring models over 35 titled, Timeless Beauty. As you know I rarely ever re-visit a show after a Blog, however this one is going to receive special Blog time compliments of Yours Truly.

Models All Grown Up
So far from the promo, it appears that we can expect an entirely different kind of modelling show, with actual real grown-up adults...How refreshing.

Perhaps I may have missed something while multitasking...
In the initial promo, there does not appear to be dramatic childish in-fighting over trivial nonsensical matters, over the top make-overs, incessant crying, distorted self confidence, age, weight, and race issues, social disdain, idolatry and general self loathing?

Wait, wait, wait, what is there to watch - I mean, how are we going to keep the audience hooked each and every week (For 6 weeks, this time) to watch these divas fight it out on the catwalk for a fierce modelling contract with a top agency and a spread on the cover (Insert magazine name here)? There goes our plush office on the studio lot, our power "I'll just have bottled water" lunches, our exclusive gym "I don't sweat, I glisten" membership, and our shiny new Jag!

Your Mom's a Model.
While watching the show (Formerly titled, The Next Great Supermodel Age 35 and Older), judged by the beautiful, does not look a day over 35 supermodel Beverly Johnson - Not only is this my sister's name, but I admired Ms. Johnson growing up as a young St. John. Considering the general unruliness of supermodels, Ms. Johnson's class, humility and poise are an amazing, mature and eloquent statement of what it means to be a SUPERmodel.

And Now for the not-so-good (The hand slapping complaints part):
Most of the aspiring are actual, real life moms -Again, I might have missed something, much of the reason why many of the moms were hoping to compete is for a 'second chance' - was there not a first? This is moderate concern of disappointment in general.

Furthermore, are none of these women professionals with professional careers, businesses and media empires? What is this saying about women of a certain age - they all gave up career potential and personal aspirations to be stay at home moms without an inkling of a career? What year is this 1950?! Careful, I am already dangling the show off the edge of the balcony...

Now for hand slap #2
The 'other' programming on the network - I always happen to arrive on the network when The Andy Griffith Show appears to be airing - either I am always consistently tuning in at the same time or TV Land is always consistently airing the old black and white show.

Friends at TV Land - Please stop airing any show that is not in color or exceeds my age in the number of years since the show was first considered 'original'. So, what would I suggest? If I were in charge of programming, my line-up would include Charlie's Angels, Chips, The Bionic Woman/Six Million Dollar Man, The Incredible Hulk, The Love Boat, every season of all previously ran reality shows (2nd run reality would be the Primetime schedule), a plethora of popular shows from the 80's (Cheers, Miami Vice, St. Elsewhere, 21 Jump Street - Viewers never tire of cop shows and medical shows), Dallas, Dynasty and Melrose Place.

Of course, we would not have any budget remaining due to all of the expensive licensing fees for said shows, but hey, we can garner more high-level advertisers to subsidize our new, crisply targeted programming. How's that for solution? You're welcome.

Starkly, I realize that perhaps just maybe this time I am not be the intended audience - maybe I am not at the center of everything after all? But wait, I AM Pop-Culture TV...

Alright, you can read more about the show on the TV Land site:

Women Rule The World!

Wonderful, you are here!

Today is a holiday (For some) - yes, the holiday is earlier this year and quite frankly, I never really seem to be aware of when the Easter holiday commences. For some reason I thought it was the 2nd Sunday in April - I do not know?

Ah wait, I am being informed that Easter dates can range from March 22 through April 25 in Western Christianity. Well, I have a complaint with nondescript holiday dates - I need concrete dates, so I can be aware of which days to assign extra work....Just kidding, loved ones!

My final thought: Another holiday that has been commercialized for the purpose of 'Buying' things that no one really needs, rather than it's true and more relevant meaning.

On To Our Subject
Anyway, let me get re-focused on today's topic: Women Rule The World!
Well, that's the "Working muse" of a new Fox show, called When Women Ruled The World (Produced by Rocket Science Laboratories). According our dearly beloved friends at Fox:

"When Women Rule the World will feature 12 unsuspecting male competitors …will be brought to a remote, primitive location where the women will have the opportunity to "rule" as they build a newly formed society – one where there is no glass ceiling and no dressing to impress.

For the men, their worlds of power and prestige are turned inside-out and upside-down. And for these women, turnabout is fair play!"

I AM WOMAN
Someone said: "What if it was "A woman’s world"? What if women made ALL the decisions? If men were their obedient subjects?"

Well, I do not know what PLANET from which these questions are being asked - However, this is my complete daily existence (Perhaps, I am saying too much). However, I encourage all of you to try this level of independence...If you create it, it's YOUR world.

Anyway, the above questions and more will be explored when a group of strong, educated, independent women (Similar to yours truly), tired of living in a man’s world and each with a personal axe to grind (NOT similar to yours truly), rule over a group of unsuspecting men used to calling the shots on WHEN WOMEN RULE THE WORLD.

So, What's The Big Idea?
In order to win "The game", the men must accede to the women’s every demand, 24/7. Here, women command and men obey...Yeah, I am liking this idea so far...

Over the series’ duration, the men will be eliminated by the women until one last man is standing.

Of course, there could be a number of debates about the implications of such a topic, such as discussions about the 'glass' ceiling, civil rights, chauvinism, and what not. Keep in mind, it is a show that is designed to get you emotionally involved (Ah, that is the purpose).

When I first heard of the concept of the show, my immediate knee-jerk reaction was a great big smile. I mean, I think men already may be aware this...In real life. Most women (At least the one's that I personally know) call the shots.

Further, our husbands are duly aware of this fact; whether they are CEOs, Scientists, Doctors, Lawyers or whatever the occupation, when all is said and done, it is us women who ultimately decide, choose and manage what is best. Women by nature do things better with immense understanding and in greater detail.

Why a female would have no problem running a corporate conglomerate, successful business or the country for that matter!

There is not a male equivalent to Oprah, nor a male version of the mega lifestyle corporation such as Martha Stewart, name 5 famous singers - now name 5 famous male singers. Even better, name 5 Supermodels - now name 5 male Supermodels - you just can't...Think about it...

Sounds like good fun already...The show's debut has been re-scheduled (Originally March 3) for June 2nd at 8 PM on Fox.

It's 6 PM Do You Know Where Your Dinner Is?

Here we are...

Well, I don't know about you, but at the end of the day I have worked up quite a fierce appetite.

I usually begin thinking about dinner well into the afternoon. Why I could be in an important 3 PM meeting and all I am thinking about is this important quandry, "What's for dinner?".

Perhaps, this pre-occupation with dinner exists because I do not have time for lunch during the day - you know those power lunches between the power players (Whomever they are) that you hear about?

Yeah, it's all water and conversation - you are lucky to even get in a bite of your wilted lettuce salad...Oh, and the little Roll served with your lettuce leaf - Forget about it, it's all Carbs...Ah, do not misunderstand, I have made many deals over a sip of water (Bottled, of course) and a lettuce leaf, but this just might have much to do with being famished at day's end.

Further, I enjoy eating food while watching the preparation of food on television. That is until now...

Q: What do you get when you mix beautiful and breathtaking scenery, an affable host, and a belly ache?

Welcome to the return of The Travel Channel's new show Bizarre Foods.

The show, now returning this year for a second season, is hosted by the very brave travel connoisseur, Andrew Zimmern.

According to friends at The Travel Channel: "Bizarre Foods focuses on regional cuisine from around the world which is typically perceived by the American masses as being gross, unique, or, of course, bizarre.

In each episode, Zimmern focuses on the cuisine of a particular country or region. He typically shows how the food is procured, where it is served, and, usually without hesitation, eats it."

Good Food Gone Bad
Quite frankly, I have a good relationship with food and can only think of a few times when things did not work out:

  1. A plate full of unpronounceable Lebanese food at a party on a hot summer day.

  2. Well, never mind this one - I do not believe that you want to hear the details...Let's just say it had something to do with Tequila (Back in college) - you do not want to know any more than what I have just mentioned.

Anyway, my point is that I really like most food and have been to many exotic places where I have enjoyed the local cuisine. However on a side note, I do not eat much meat when traveling abroad (Or even at home in Los Angeles, for that matter) which can be perilous to one's health in certain countries.

Here is my 'Great and Valuable' advice when traveling abroad: If given the choice between a strange fruit or a strange meat - TAKE THE FRUIT.

One Man's Cuisine, Is Another Man's Upset Stomach
Returning to the show, our endearing host Andrew travels the globe to such countries as Morocco, Taiwan, Iceland, Ecuador, Beijing and even New York City, in search of native cuisine.

For the entire hour, viewers enjoy watching the host try anything and have witnessed the carnage of Zimmern eating things such as Fruit Bats, Grubs, Blood Pudding, "Stinky Tofu", Fermented Fish Heads, Fermented Whale Blubber, Iguana, Stuffed Frogs, Fried Bees, Pigeon Pie, Jellied Mouse Nose, Teriyaki Cockroaches (New York City - You ARE SOO BUSTED!) and a whole host of unimaginable animal parts...

Lost your appetite?
Bizarre Foods is one part travel show, one part cooking show, and the rest is completely up to your stomach.

Quite frankly, it does not take much for me to lose my appetite during this show, but I think that is the idea...

America's Top Dog

Well, well...
You know of my particular fondness for the show America's Next Top Model (Although, my interest has been waning a bit during this last season) and I have often commented that ANTM has inspired many, many new reality shows.

Well move over Tyra, it appears CBS has ordered a new show produced by RJ Cutler (Actual Reality Pictures) called, America's Top Dog.

According to friends at CBS, "America's Top Dog is a new one hour-long series where 'man's best friend' can help its owner win big money!

From 'pageant dogs' to those dogs simply trained at home - will live together and battle it out in a dog competition that puts the dog's relationship with the person who has raised and trained it to the test.

In the end, only one team of loving owner and faithful dog will emerge the winner in this dog-eat-dog competition!"

Owners and Their Dogs
Personally, and this may shock many of you, I am not so much a dog person (Gasp). Alright, do not misunderstand, I appreciate dogs as someone else's pet and have a number of friends that prefer canine ownership.

Undoubtedly, dogs are truly 'loyal' and provide love unconditionally to their owners. Equally, owners are just as passionate (Obsessed) about their best four-legged friends and often consider them a member of the family.

Dogs in particular are often considered the reflective of an owner and they are often adorned with standard names generally given to most infants and are often treated as a 'baby' member of the family.

Having said (Yes, a non-sequitur), I am often puzzled as to why people say "Good Boy" to their dogs and speak to them using a silly tone one would generally use when speaking to babies. Literally interpreted, a dog is not a 'Boy', nor a baby. Perhaps I have missed the rules and special code of dog ownership that requires you treat your dog as a human child...

As well, I have never heard someone call a cat "Good Boy" - and use the silly infant talk when speaking to feline pets. Further, cats tend to have more 'Animal' related names than their dog counterparts (Ala Toonces, Socks, Smokey, Ms. Kitty and the like). Think about it...

The Dog and Pony Show
Many of you may have watched the competitive dog shows on television. The Westminster Dog Show has been airing for many years and is one of the most highest rated programs during its broadcast.

As a matter of fact, one of my favorite movies is the hysterical tongue-n-cheek Christopher Guest Mock-u-mentary Best In Show, which takes you behind the scenes of a major canine event competition with colorful characters, witty dialog and clever scenarios.

The brilliant and comical events all transpire around the hotel, in which the dogs and owners are staying and the convention center of where the 'show' event is set to commence.

Drama In The Doggie Park
The underlying theme is that dog shows/competitions are very similar to real life beauty pageants, complete with inherent drama, endless preparation and consumption, and stage-moms/dads. The pressure and the stakes are just as high and unrelenting.

Further, what you may not have noticed within the above Top Dog descriptive synopsis is that in true reality style (Remember, we have discussed in previous posts), is the fact that the owners and dog pets are competing against each other.

To magnify situations for the purpose of being interesting and really cue the drama, the owners and dog pets will ALL BE LIVING TOGETHER (Probably in a mansion, for 13 weeks - you should know this standard reality show ingredient by now).

What's The Deal?
What has yet to be determined is exactly what it is in which they (Dogs and owners) are competing.

Is it similar to America's Next Top Model where the winner gets the title of being America's Next Top Model (In this case, America's Top Dog) a feature in 17 Magazine (In this case, a pet magazine?), a $100,000 modeling contract with (Insert Pet Food Company Here), and the job as spokes dog for Pet Smart? These important details have yet to be announced...

Should be good fun and the show is expected to air later this year.

The Moment of Truth

Good to see you!

It has been some time since we have seen a good game show (Albeit, most of reality shows are games), however today I bring new game show news...

Tonight Fox will debut The Moment of Truth (Formerly known as Nothing But The Truth - which I actually preferred) before millions of viewers after American Idol.

Although not an original, the show is a version of the worldwide Colombian sensation that has been franchised around the world in some 25 other countries (Of course, in the U.K.).


According to friends at Fox:
THE MOMENT OF TRUTH is the game show that puts participants to the test the lie detector test to reveal whether or not they are telling the truth for a chance to win half a million dollars. Participants answer 21 increasingly personal questions honestly, as determined by a polygraph, to win the money.

Can you say, "Squirm"?
Now, I am not one for answering questions and I do not particularly answer questions well for that matter - my answers are usually comprised of too little information or too much irrelevant information (aka "The Politician's Response" - Depending upon to whom I am speaking).

In fact, thinking about it "Squirm" would have been better name for this show...

Anyway, the show will be hosted by Mark Wahlberg (No, not the Marky Mark Wahlberg, the former host of Joe Millionaire - remember?) and promises to be uncomfortable by asking questions contestants such as have you ever lied to get a job?; do you like your mother-in-law?; do you really care about starving children in Africa?; have you ever stolen anything from work?; and have you ever cheated on your spouse?

Truth in Entertainment?
Never. I say let's step-it-up and forget about the 'safe' questions.

Let's have some real controversy by asking questions about the law (A sure way to bring the discomfort) such as, have you ever driven 60 MPH in a 35 MPH zone?; do you intentionally cut people off in traffic?; have you ever lied to get out of a speeding ticket?; do you have unpaid parking tickets? Tell the truth....

The intention is that tougher questions could be difficult because participants reveal their answers in front of spouses, relatives and friends, who are in the audience hanging on every word....While strapped to a lie detector.


The Fun We Could Have...
Having said, if such questions are difficult for the average person to answer, I am already busy dreaming up spin-off shows such as a Celebrity Moment of Truth as the next versions of the show.

Even Better, a Politician's Moment of Truth - Could you imagine? Quite frankly, watching 'Politicos' strapped to a lie detector would be far more interesting to watch than the debates - let's get some real answers for a change.

The Value of Truth or The Cost of a Lie?
Ah-ha! Promotions for the show tout, "What deep dark secret will someone divulge for hundreds of thousands of dollars?"

Wait, wait, wait - You mean people would risk their entire suburban life, love, family, and career for a few measly hundreds of thousands of dollars? That is not NEARLY enough money to tell the truth...

The show airs tonight on Fox at 9 PM.

Your Reality TV Schedule for 2008

Hello, hello, hello...

As we have officially returned back to regularly scheduled programming (Amidst the horrific writer's strike - which continues to halt production here in Los Angeles and now apparently around the entire world). Friends, neighbors and countrymen/women - Stop the MADNESS!

Where's The Promised Hollywood Ending?
Before we begin today's escape, I wish to quickly mention just as friends at the Weinstein Company, we are also in the process of making our own deals with independent writers - if all of the independents joined together, we can force an end to this debacle. We need a Hollywood Ending.

More Reality on The Schedule
Now, on to a more hopeful subject is the new and returning reality offerings for 2008.

I am often asked, do I know about shows before the air on television - um...YEAH! Sometimes I hear about shows a year or more in advance and by the time it is aired I am usually thinking, "Did we not already see that show?".

The second most frequently asked question is "Do I actually watch reality shows?". Again, yes. When I make time, I am usually watching a reality show or a movie when I REALLY create time.

So, let's see what we will be watching this season (Yes, you may print this list and tape to the refrigerator):
  • American Idol 7 (FOX), Jan. 15
  • My Fair Brady…Maybe Baby? (VH1), Jan. 20
  • Millionaire Matchmaker (Bravo), Jan. 22
  • Gauntlet III (MTV), Jan. 23
  • Survivor 16 (CBS), Feb. 7
  • Big Brother 9 (CBS), Feb. 12
  • Baby Borrowers (NBC), Feb. 18
  • Pussycat Dolls 2: Girlicious (CW), Feb. 18

  • America’s Next Top Model 10 (CW), Feb. 20
  • Oprah’s Big Give (ABC), March 2

  • When Women Rule the World (FOX), March 3

  • Dancing with the Stars 5 (ABC), March 17
  • The Bachelor 12 (ABC), March 17
  • Top Chef 4 (Bravo), March 19

  • Hell’s Kitchen 4 (FOX), April 1
  • The Real World Hollywood (MTV), May 21

Not to worry, there are many more reality shows beyond May 21st and I will provide witty analysis (aka 'Comment') on each of the shows as we near closer to the broadcast date.

We can still look forward to the debut of Randy Jackson's Best Dance Crew (Formerly known as World Moves), Farmer Wants a Wife, and My Dad is Better Than Your Dad (Return to 5th grade - this is not part of the title, however the statement should be)...

As well, all of this reality fare around Superbowl 500 (Not really, I am just feeling largely despondent that my Seattle is no longer in contention for the title, for yet another year!).

Wait There's More...
Having said, future Blogs are guaranteed forthcoming on the new shows, such as Millionaire Matchmaker (Bayonne Entertainment), Baby Borrower's (Love Productions), Oprah's Big Give (Produced by Harpo Productions), When Women Rule the World (Rocket Science Labs) - which promises to be not only realistic (IMHO), but as well, entertaining - Can you say, "Man Servant?" - this should be good fun!

The good news is that from the appearance of the above schedule, you should have continuous reality entertainment each and every night of the week (Or, at least that is the idea)...
