Nancy O’Dell Taking Over Mary Hart’s Entertainment Tonight Post

Although she’s the host of The Insider, it turns out Lara Spencer did not have the inside advantage when it came to Mary Hart’s job.
For months now, it had been speculated that Spencer would take over Mary Hart’s soon-to-be vacant post at Entertainment Tonight. Unfortunately, Lara lost out to another blonde personality: Nancy O’Dell.
O’Dell is, of course, no stranger to entertainment reporting. She previously hosted Access Hollywood alongside Billy Bush.
"I remember watching Entertainment Tonight when it first premiered and dreaming about working for the show someday," O'Dell stated. "I am honored to be the one chosen to fill a TV legend's seat and I hope I can do her proud!"
Nancy will first appear on the ET set in January when she begins correspondent and fill-in anchoring duties. She will then take over the highly-coveted position when Hart signs off at the end of the 2010-11 season.
"Leaving this job was not an easy decision, but knowing I will pass the baton to Nancy O'Dell makes that decision much easier," Hart said. "Nancy is a talented and respected entertainment correspondent. We have spent many years working on opposite sides of the celebrity battlefield, and I know the show will flourish with Nancy as co-anchor."

MSNBC to Lift Keith Olbermann’s Suspension Tuesday
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Cable, News,
Keith Olbermann will be back in his office before his laptop gets cold.
The newsman will be behind the desk on Tuesday, when MSNBC relaxes the suspension he earned for violating NBC rules. (Olbermann donated $2,400 to three different political campaigns: Kentucky Senate candidate Jack Conway and Arizona Representatives Raul Grijalva and Gabrielle Giffords.)
Phil Griffin, MSNBC chief exec, said that Olbermann’s two-day ban was “an appropriate punishment for his violation of our policy.”

This Week on TV (11/8-11/14)

(Make sure to check out TV Envy's Programming Schedule.)
MONDAY (11/8)
- 90210 (CW, 8 p.m.): "Adrianna breaks a date with Navid when Victor fixes her up with Joe Jonas (appearing as himself)." She thought the opportunity could inspire her to write a great break-up song some day.
- Hawaii Five-0 (CBS, 10 p.m.): "Danny's ex-partner in the Honolulu Police Department is murdered and his body is found in a barbecue pit during a luau." Well, that's the pits.
- Hoarders (A&E, 10 p.m.): "A woman's home is so cluttered that she didn't realize a homeless person was living in her basement." The biggest shocker? All that unused storage space!

The Daily Show is Number One
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, Talk Shows, Cable, Daily Show, The, Ratings,
Maybe Conan O’Brien shouldn’t get too cozy in his new office at TBS.
The former NBC funnyman will debut his Conan, a new late night series, at 11 pm on Monday … and that means he’s facing the toughest of all late night competition.
According to TVByTheNumbers, The Daily Show is the top-rated late night show among adults age 18 - 49. The numbers are in, and Jon Stewart is officially the king of late night … but during one of the weeks reviewed, The Daily Show, The Tonight Show and Late Show with David Letterman were all showing re-runs.
We have a sneaking suspicion that all Daily Show ratings spikes come just when FOX News hires new staffers.

Gwyneth Paltrow to Cover Cee Lo’s F**k You on Glee
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Music, Prime Time, FOX, Spoilers, Video,
WARNING: The clip above is not the censored version.
Although we had to sit through a rerun of Glee last night, we’ve got some interesting scoop Gwyneth Paltrow’s upcoming appearance.
Of the three or four songs that Paltrow will be doing on the series, one of them will be a cover of Cee Lo Green’s “F**k You.”
That may be about as far away from “Country Strong” as you can get.
