American Idol Ruined By Homosexuality? Christian Newswire Says Yes

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Cable, CBS, FOX, NBC, American Idol, Gossip, Video,
In this week’s installment of Extremely Offensive Articles, we have Christian Newswire’s director stating - for all the world to read - that American Idol is struggling with ratings because Ellen DeGeneres is gay.
According to director Gary McCullough: “I am confident that the producers of American Idol will be shocked when their market share has cratered, and will in all honesty find a dozen other reasons for the drop in ratings. After all, what successful television producer could have a clue what wholesomeness is as long as they see promoting homosexuality as a virtue?”
In the article, McCullough writes “[Ellen] DeGeneres’ ‘Yes, I have loved a woman,’ comment from the May 11th show, was the most obvious lesbian-one-liner, but it wasn’t the only one, and it is hurting the show’s ratings.”
Furious yet? Just wait - it actually gets worse!

The Diff’rent Strokes Curse

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC, NBC, Gossip, Video,
It’s hard to pinpoint just when the whispers began - though it’s widely-accepted that they started well before Dana Plato’s 1999 suicide. It’s possible the theory of the Diff’rent Strokes curse started in 1988, when Todd Bridges was tried for the murder of an alleged drug dealer. Gary Coleman made headlines the following year when he sued his parents for misappropriation of funds—and made more when he allegedly assaulted a woman in 1998. Dana Plato, broke and with no acting prospects in sight, began working at a dry cleaner’s in 1991.
If you look at each of their stories, particularly hours after Gary Coleman’s death, it’s not too hard to believe in the Diff’rent Strokes curse.

Lost DVD to Address Unanswered Questions

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, Lost, DVD, Rumors, Video,
While I doubt the Lost producers will ever come close to covering all the holes raised in this humorous CollegeHumor.com video, they will apparently get to some.
If you haven’t already washed your hands of the show, you might want to keep an eye out for the Season 6 DVD due out August 24. According to insiders, the package will include “new content that addresses some of the unanswered questions in an entertaining way.” One report claims the release may contain up to twenty additional minutes of storyline.
Want to make sure executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse answer your nagging questions? Why not send them a tweet? Maybe they’ll finally put your mind to rest.
