Denzel Washington, Mark Zuckerberg Get SNL Treatment
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
SNL‘s Andy Samberg channeled his inner geek to spoof Mark Zuckerberg Saturday night. Samberg delivered jokes about youth culture and Facebook, the central theme of the hit movie The Social Network.
Samberg’s wasn’t the only impersonation of the night (it would hardly be SNL without several to choose from). A new cast member offered up an impression that was so spot-on, the audience didn’t know whether to laugh or just stare in awe. Follow the jump to view the video.

Katherine Jackson to Appear on Oprah?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, Syndication, Oprah Winfrey Show, Rumors,
TMZ spotted Oprah Winfrey’s production crew outside the Jackson home over the weekend. The workers, who arrived in several trucks and two SUVs, confirmed that they were there doing “an Oprah shoot.”
The crew ordered pizzas and received a parking ticket while inside the home. They stayed briefly, then packed up and left.
Oprah did not make an appearance, so it’s likely the team was shooting an introductory segment for an eventual Katherine Jackson interview.

South Park to Target Jersey Shore
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Animation, Comedy, Prime Time, Cable, Gossip,
Finally.
South Park will make MTV’s Jersey Shore even more laughable on Wednesday night. That’s when the reality series will be spoofed on the animated series. The episode features “Jerseyites” who arrive in Colorado. Randy and Stan Marsh will defend the town against the onslaught.
The cast of Jersey Shore are looking forward to seeing themselves on Comedy Central. “I Always Wanted To Be On South Park !!!” Pauly D tweeted upon hearing the new. “SOUTH PARK GOES JERSEY SHORE! WEDNESDAY! Yes! Finally!!!!!” Snooki added moments later.
Let’s hope they’re still being good sports come Thursday morning.

TV Talk: Dora the Explorer Lawsuit, Awkward Family Photos Series
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Animation, Comedy, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Bravo, Cable, CBS, Gossip, News,
-Being labeled “half” a man can earn you serious dollars. Two and a Half Men‘s Angus T. Jones has just agreed to a $300,000-per episode deal. The 17-year-old—contracted for 26 more episodes—also got a $500,000 signing bonus.
-The original voice behind Nickelodeon’s Dora the Explorer says she was cheated out of millions. Caitlin Sanchez and her family claim they were forced to sign a “convoluted and inscrutable contract” without legal help.
-Is it possible to translate awkwardness for TV? ABC is developing a series based on Awkward Family Photos, a book—and website—created by Mike Bender and Doug Chernack.
-Ramona Singer reportedly punched a producer after getting “worked up over filming” a scene in her home. A source claims the Real Housewives of New York star “felt like the producers were ganging up on her.”
Grover Takes on the Old Spice Guy
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Daytime, Kids, PBS, Video,
Although it’s been a while since we’ve had some Old Spice commercials to make us laugh, Sesame Street now has us feeling blue.
What could possibly—possibly—be better than watching Isaiah Mustafa in nothing more than a towel?? Listening to Grover teach us about the word “on” while smelling like a monster.
Warning to those bothered by Katy Perry’s play date with Elmo: Major chest exposure ahead.

VIDEO: Steve Carell Does Law & Order
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, NBC, The Office, Video,
If you rely on TiVo to record episodes of The Office (and not Outsourced) like I do, you may have missed this extra nugget as well.
At the very end of the recent episode, viewers got a chance to see the Law & Order material Michael Scott (Steve Carell) used for a Sweeney Todd audition.
Let’s just say Johnny Depp won’t need to worry about the competition anytime soon.

Production Shut Down on NBC’s Outlaw
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, NBC, Ratings,
UPDATE: The show has been officially pulled from the Friday schedule. Remaining episodes will air Saturdays @ 8 PM.
Looks like Outlaw is running out of luck.
Late this week, NBC came just shy of canceling the freshman series altogether. The program – starring Jimmy Smits – was placed on production hiatus after three nights’ worth of dismal numbers.
That decision was made before the program’s latest outing – which earned in 4.2 million viewers and a 1.0/3 in the 18-49 demo. Should the network continue to air the finished episodes, we could still see four more weeks of the show.

(Make sure to check out TV Envy’s Programming Schedule.)
MONDAY (10/11)
- 90210 (CW, 8 p.m.): “Debbie applies for a job as an assistant to a very pregnant Jen.” She’ll do whatever it takes to
stay on the showprovide for her family. - House (FOX, 8 p.m.): “A patient who can’t stop vomiting is also hiding secrets.” A few more trips to the toilet, and he’ll be ready to cough them up.
- Castle (ABC, 10 p.m.): “Castle posits time travel as a possible element in the murder of a mathematician shot by a 200-year-old bullet.” Having seen Timecop, I fully support this theory.
