ABC Taking No Chances with Adam Lambert
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Daytime, Music, Talk Shows, ABC, Gossip, Video,
Now that ABC has decided to allow Adam Lambert back into the studio, everything should be business as usual, right? Wrong. Though Glambert appeared on The View Thursday morning, his segment was pre-taped. You know, just in case he decided to grab a random crewman and kiss him in front of the cameras.
The interview was as boring as expected. Lambert then got up to sing “Whataya Want From Me?” All of his dance moves were very appropriate for daytime TV.
And everybody at ABC breathed a sigh of relief. Let us not forget that this network is very much affiliated with the Walt Disney Corporation. D’ya think one has to do with the other?

Daytime Dish: As the World Turns Canceled by CBS
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Drama, CBS, Cancellations,
Come next September, CBS will have a new hole to fill on its daytime calendar. That’s the month As the World Turns will come to its end.
Today’s cancellation announcement comes just three months after Guiding Light officially closed up shop. World, like Light, has been on the air for over 50 years.
“We are disappointed and saddened by the news that the show is not being renewed,” exec producer Chris Goutman said. “It will certainly be a loss for all of us, and for the show’s loyal audience.”

ABC and The View Welcome Adam Lambert
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Syndication, Gossip, News,
Adam Lambert might not be suitable for early morning TV or late night programming, but he’s apparently controversial enough to sit down for The View.
Today, ABC announced that Adam Lambert will be joining the daytime ladies on the Dec. 10 broadcast. This surprise decision comes just two days after the American Idol finalist was pulled from both Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve.
Wondering if there’s a catch? Well, there is. Not only will the interview and musical performance be pre-taped, it comes at a convenient time. Lambert is one of the honorees in this year’s Most Fascinating People special. That Barbara Walters program will air the evening before on December 9.

Bob Eubanks will return to host The Newlywed Game for one night only on January 7 on the Game Show Network. The famous game show host will step behind the mic to relieve current host Carnie Wilson, who will serve as a celebrity contestant.
The guest hosting spot will give Eubanks a distinct honor: he’ll be the first game show host in TV to have hosted the same game show in five different decades. He first became the host of the series in 1966, returning to the show again in every successive decade in new versions of the game.

Lambert Admits He Got Carried Away, Still Not Sorry
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Award Shows, Daytime, Music, ABC, CBS, Gossip, News, Video,
If the folks at ABC were counting on Adam Lambert to apologize for his AMA performance, it’s probably a good thing they canceled his Good Morning America appearance.
The American Idol alum showed up to The Early Show instead and did admit that catching glimpses of his favorite pop stars sparked more of his energy.
“I admit I did get carried away, but I don’t see anything wrong with it. I do see how people got offended and that was not my intention. My intention was to interpret the lyrics of my song and have a good time with it.”
He also made no apologies when asked about how he felt with children watching his performance: “It didn’t cross my mind - children. It was almost 11 o’clock at night. I was in the audience and it was mostly adults… I’m not a babysitter. I’m a performer.”
Check out his Early Show performances after the break!
