- 24 (FOX, 9pm): “President Taylor enlists a private security firm led by Mark Bledsoe (D.B. Sweeney) to assist in the crisis.” She believes his experience with the “Pamchenko” could come handy in this situation.
- Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (FOOD, 10pm): “Guy visits a 40-year-old fish shack in Mayport, Fla., where shrimp is prepared nine different ways.” Thanks to the economy, employees aren’t the only thing Bubba Gump has had to cut back on.

VIDEO: Did FOX, ABC Ban Cleavage-Filled Commercial?

Although the world should be used to seeing women parading around in their bras by now, there’s one thing Lane Bryant commercials have that Victoria’s Secret spots don’t: large breasts.
And when you have large breasts, you get lots of cleavage. And when you have lots of cleavage, you supposedly get banned by ABC and FOX.
According to Lane Bryant, a clothing company for full-figured women, both Victoria’s Secret-friendly networks rejected requests to air the ad. “It certainly appears to be discrimination against full-sized women,” one source told the New York Post. A Lane Bryant rep added. “There’s no difference other than they’re bigger girls.”
Needless to say, these accusations now have ABC and FOX both crying foul.

Tori Spelling: Talk Show Host?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Gossip, Rumors,
Tori Spelling may soon add “talk show host” to her resume.
The 36-year-old actress currently in discussions with ABC to front a new show with a male co-host. According to the Los Angeles Times, the network is reportedly looking for a “Will & Grace vibe between Spelling and her as-yet-undiscovered BFF.”
The program is still, though, in the very early stages of development.
Tori is, of course, quite comfortable in front of the camera. In addition to her work on Beverly HIlls, 90210 and So NoTORIous, she is still an Oxygen fixture thanks to her reality show with husband Dean McDermott. Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood is in the middle of its fifth season.

Watch Kate Gosselin’s Final Tears on DWTS
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Video,
While I’m sure this will not be the last time you see the self-admitted “crybaby” reduced to tears, I do believe this will be the last time you see Kate Gosselin crying while wearing a gown her kids might have ripped up.
As you watch her give her final goodbye on last night’s Dancing with the Stars, ask yourself this: What did you believe more - Kate’s disappointment about being let go or Tony Dovolani’s sweet speech?

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Talk Shows, ABC, Cable, Syndication, News, Ratings, Rumors,
-Reboots can be successful in the theaters and on television. Saturday’s debut of Doctor Who gave BBC America it’s largest audience to date. The premiere also earned the channel it’s best numbers in the 25-54s.
-Vice President Joe Biden will likely have to address his “big f**king” gaffe when he sits down with the ladies of The View next week. Biden will appear on Monday as part of the show’s “Red, White & View” series.
-There’s a slight possibility that Ugly Betty will live on on the big screen. “It’s something that we’ve been talking about and it’s something that America Ferrera would really love to do. That woman has so much determination that I can’t imagine anything she puts her mind to not getting done,” actress Ana Ortiz (Hilda Suarez) said.
-Production on Steven Seagal Lawman has been indefinitely shut down in light of a civil lawsuit filed against the reality show’s star. Kayden Nguyen, a former assistant to the star, has accused Steven Seagal of sexual harassment and is asking for $1 million.

The former Baywatch actress - who is known for her busty, curvy figure - has been told to wear pasties by show bosses to make sure all her parts are kept hidden.
“I think the pasties arrive at every rehearsal and everywhere I go,” she told Ryan Seacrest on KIIS-FM. “They hand them to me. I don’t like them. They bother me and I burst through them anyway… it’s just a nipple!”
