Big Brother 13 To Start July 6th

UPDATE: JUNE 9, 2011 The start date to Big Brother 13 has changed to July 7th.

Seventy days until Big Brother 13 starts.  July 6th is when it all starts again.

Big Brother has had some casting calls, and they are having additional ones May 4th, 6th, and 7th in Kentucky, Tennessee and South Carolina. Go to BigBrotherLeak for casting call information.

I am almost over this show, but I'll give it one more season and see. I'm getting tired of all of the reality shows. I only watch three now. This one in particular feels more scripted than ever and it seems like more and more the characters are "wanna be's" you know they want to become big TV stars, not just win the money.  I know last year several of the people had agents before even getting accepted in the house.

The show was more interesting last season because I watched Big Brother After Dark, but then you end up knowing who won stuff before the CBS show airs. So we'll see.

I seriously hope there are no guest appearances from Brendon and Rachel. I can't take anymore of them.

Roger Howarth Returning To One Life To Live Sooner Than Expected - Picketing - Boycotting

It was originally reported that Roger Howarth would start filming his return to One Life To Live in May.

Now it seems his first on air appearance will be on May 13th.

I can't wait to see if he will be "The Real Todd Manning" or someone else.

I still can't believe that ABC has canceled these shows. I am really hoping they are losing viewers across the board and that soap viewing is picking up. Yesterday people picketed Disney, ABC, and affiliates across the United States, ABC in New York called the police on the picketers. Way to win fans ABC!

Private Practice April 28, 2011 Yea! A New Episode!

"What We Have Here..."

The guide says Katie threatens legal action against Violet and Cooper suspects Charlotte still has feelings for her ex-husband.

Finally another new episode here too!  I swear they've shown so many reruns, I almost forgot what was going on.

Grey's Anatomy April 28, 2011 Finally A New Episode!

"It's A Long Way Back"

I hope we will finally get to see what happens to Callie and her baby and get some of our other questions answered.

Like who is going to be Chief resident, will Teddy and Henry get together? And how about Lucy and Alex? Or will Lucy get sent packing after her major incompetence with Callie?  Will Eli propose to Bailey? Will Bailey say yes if he does? Will Meredith get pregnant? What will happen between Christina and Owen now that he is picking the Chief resident?

Ted Shackelford Jeffery Bardwell The Young and The Restless Temporarily Replaced

Ted Shackelford is evidently on a temporary leave of absence from The Young & The Restless. He has been temporarily replaced by Kin Shriner, who most of us recognize as Scotty Baldwin from General Hospital. Reports indicate that Ted Shackelford will miss three episodes so hopefully he will return soon.

I've been a long time fan of Ted's since he was on Knot's Landing.

I don't know what has happened that Ted Shackelford is absent, but I can only imagine it isn't good. I just want to send my best wishes to Ted and his family. I hope he returns to the show soon, and all is well.

Deadliest Catch Season 7 Episode 2 Recap

On the last episode I only did a partial recap, because I thought Discovery replayed the episodes on their website. I have since discovered they don't. So for my mates in Australia and those of you who missed or can't get the show I will do full recaps.

To start off with let me say how excited I am last weeks episode of Deadliest Catch had ten million viewers. I think the boycotting of ABC of helped. I saw comments people were watching Deadliest Catch instead of Dancing With The Stars, and since Dancing With The Stars rating were down by 13%, I say welcome all my soap fans and thank you for supporting the soaps. You've found a great show!

Grey's Anatomy April 21, 2011 A Rerun Again Bad ABC!

Are you kidding me?

Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice are both reruns again tomorrow according to my TV guide. SERIOUSLY!

That's the third week of reruns. Is ABC going broke? They can't produce the shows? Why did they start a new season and then start showing reruns. What the heck?

All My Children One Life To Live Soaps Canceled Hoover Pulls Advertising

Well good for Hoover. I support them and I hope other advertisers follow suit. I haven't seen how long Hoover was an advertiser, but I'm guessing it was at least as long as the soaps have been on. And how smart of Hoover was it to hop on Facebook and Twitter and start collecting email addresses of their female audience. Maybe ABC should hire some of the Hoover marketing executives.

I've spent a lot of time this morning reading through tweets of angry soap viewers, articles from soap sites and ABC trying to justify what it has done.

I still believe these soaps are making money. ABC just wants more money, they are just a bunch of greedy so and so's to put it politely. ABC knows it is going to lose the revenue from The Oprah Show and they are trying to make up for it anyway they can. In one article it was revealed ABC has been working on replacing these shows for over a year now. So this is not something that has just happened out of the blue because of ratings. It's just another ABC lie.
