In The Chaos Household

Friday Night's TV

Started out watching 'Providence' (all right, Tally!), then went to the WB for about half of 'Maybe It's Me, which was fairly amusing, but, then, I'm a Fred Willard fan.

Followed that with 'Thieves', but, ended up bailing early, and going to Faux for the 'Simpson's'.


Saturday's highlight seems to be VH1's Concert - according to my TV Guide, it begins at 8 pm (edt), and will be tape-delayed for the west coast. But, since we're 'Dish' people, we'll be watching it live, along with the east coasters. ABC and NBC seem to have abandoned the night, and are offering re-run movies (ABC has 'The Birdcage', and it's 'The Truman Show' on NBC).


At least the programs on CBS are fresh.


Anyone have any opinions?

Or reviews?

Thursday's Howard Stern

Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney finally broke his long silence yesterday and explained why he has been feuding for years with Yoko Ono and Michael Jackson.

In a candid interview with Howard Stern, McCartney - addressing subjects he normally only "discusses in private" - detailed the way both Ono and Jackson played hardball in business negotiations and declined to give an inch, either in money or in creative credit.

McCartney, who is hosting the VH1-Robin Hood Foundation Concert for New York City tomorrow night at Madison Square Garden, said the bad blood with Jackson began when the wacky self-titled King of Pop bought the publishing rights to The Beatles' songs.

"I wrote [Jackson] a couple of letters and I said Michael, don't you think that - even if I was just a writer on the payroll - after 30 years of being reasonably successful to this company that you now own, don't you think I could have a raise?"

Adopting a fey Jackson-esque voice, McCartney added: "And [Jackson] said, 'Oh Paul, that's just business.' " The two never talked again.

"[Jackson] won't even answer my letters, so we haven't talked and we don't have that great a relationship."

As for the possibility of Jackson having to sell The Beatles' songs due to cash-flow problems, as The Post reported in August, McCartney said: "I think [Jackson's] cash problems may be true. The trouble is I wrote those songs for nothing and buying them back at these phenomenal sums . . . I just can't do it."

But McCartney turned most of his ire on Ono, who he claims first showed up at his door looking for love. When McCartney wasn't interested, Ono moved on to John Lennon, whom she later married, which lead to the break-up of The Beatles.

Their uneasy relationship soured even further a few years ago when McCartney asked Ono if she'd be willing to switch the songwriting credit on "Yesterday" from "Lennon/McCartney" to "McCartney/Lennon," seeing as how he had written and performed the song. Ono flat-out refused.

"This is probably one of the reasons we don't have a great relationship," McCartney said. "John's name was always in front and I said, 'Could we just on this one [song] just switch it, so it would say written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon?' And for one reason or another [Ono] said 'No.' "

He added, "It wouldn't have cost her any money. This is all legal stuff."

McCartney, who's also busy here promoting his new single, "Lover to a Friend," did get a good laugh when Stern said: "You are such a great man and an influence on everyone I have ever met . . . especially Yoko."

STOP THE PRESSES!!! Forget the war! Heather and Denise - now that's action I want to see!

Heather Locklear has joined the ranks of Hollywood's on-screen lesbians - thanks to Bond girl Denise Richards. The sexy blondes lock lips in a forthcoming episode of hit sitcom Spin City, and Locklear admits she found the experience amazing. She says, "I saw her in Wild Things with Neve Campbell and so I knew how sexy Denise was. A lot of my male friends wanted to watch this whole thing take place. So I practiced kissing with my make-up artist Lisa - every Thursday night we run through the lines and rehearse them at dinner - and she said, 'Show me how you're going to kiss Denise.' But when it really happened, I have never felt such beautiful soft lips in my life. I fell in love."

Director Oliver Stone has sparked media fury by making "incendiary" comments about the September 11th terror attacks on America. The iconoclastic filmmaker is well known for his left-wing political stance and taste for conspiracy theories, but his controversial views often provoke anger. On October 7th, while appearing on a panel sponsored by the New York Film Festival, Stone infuriated a co-panelist so much the man started calling him names. Vanity Fair columnist Christopher Hitchens went semi-ballistic after Stone called the terrorist attacks a "revolt", and cited media conglomerates as having helped provoke the massacre. An angry Hitchens attacked Stone's comments, saying, "Excuse me? Revolt? It was state-sponsored mass murder, using civilians as missiles. To say that this attack in any way resembles the French Revolution means you are a moral idiot, as well as an intellectual idiot. The man has completely lost it." Later Stone cryptically added, "Does anybody make a connection between the 2000 election and the events of September 11th? Look for the thirteenth month!"

Legendary screen stars Elizabeth Taylor and George Hamilton have set tongues wagging around Hollywood that they've become romantically involved. The Hollywood icons, who enjoyed an affair back in the 80s, before Taylor embarked on her doomed marriage to Larry Fortensky, has been spotted out with the acting heartthrob twice recently. According to New York Times columnist Liz Smith, the pair recently dined out at Hollywood's Melrose Avenue hotspot Ago, a restaurant owned by actor Robert DeNiro. And then, soon, after, they were reported together at the glamorous Mr. Chow's in nearby Beverly Hills. Liz says, "Maybe this is a rekindling of the fire between two of Tinseltown's most famous and mature celebrities. But perhaps it's only dinner now and then between two old comrades. Whatever - they did clear out before 10:30pm, so George and Liz like early nights."

`````

New Yorker Alec Baldwin is reluctant to leave New York behind for 10 weeks of work on his latest movie - because he doesn't want to die in Hollywood. Following last month's terrorist attacks on New York's World Trade Center, Baldwin has been hesitant about embarking on his imminent trip to California to finish work on his new movie, The Devil and Daniel Webster, in case his life ends in a place where he's not particularly happy. He explains, "There's that weird part of me that thinks if New York got bombed again, I want to be here. I'd rather die getting bombed in a New York bombing than live some kind of shallow life somewhere else." Of course, some would say the only reason Baldwin is in New York is because he reneged on a promise to leave the country if George W. Bush became president. Baldwin denies he ever claimed he would expatriate himself.
Oh Alec, you make me feel warm and fuzzy inside with your positive outlook on life!

`````

My reviews:

"West Wing" this week was much better than last. This is the West Wing that I enjoy, strong, powerful players, with a strong leader. Here's hoping to a great season. The new comedy on NBC "Scrubs" caught my attention since episode 1. It is by far one of the best comedies in the new fall season. My only problem is with their Tuesday episode. They had a guest star, Kathryn Joosten (aka Dolores Landingham). And at the end of the show she died. Come on, killing off the poor woman in 2 different shows on NBC? Either she needs a better agent, or it's some sick joke that NBC plays. "Frasier" hasn't been very impressive this year, I must agree with BC on that. I have enjoyed the new Law and Order franchise, Criminal Intent. The actors are very good, especially Vincent D'Onofrio. The other new drama on NBC, "UC:Under Cover" so far has been interesting to watch. Great cast, last week they introduced Oded Fehr (from Mummy fame), and they will have Ving Rhames guess star Sunday (big Ving Rhames fan here!). I am looking forward to FOX finally starting its fall lineup. I am having Simpsons withdrawals, so I keep watching old episodes. I am also looking forward to "Boston Public", and the new show with Bernie Mac (he is absolutely hilarious, check out Kings of Comedy).
And that's my 2 cents.

Miss America is a beautiful, intelligent woman and everyone knows it.
Miss Afghanistan could be a beautiful, intelligent woman... but nobody will ever know it.

God Bless Miss America.
God Help Miss Afghanistan.

A Real Woman & A Political Hack

Karen 'Duff' Duffy & Mary Bono

Call her Tough Duff. As some legislators were leaving Washington after the anthrax scare, Karen Duffy was headed toward the Capitol. She and Rep. Mary Bono (widow of Sonny) were to receive awards yesterday from Knock Out Abuse, a group dealing with domestic violence. When organizers learned that Bono would be a no-show, they called Duff to see if she'd make it. "Of course I'm going," said the writer and Revlon model. "These women have to be brave everyday. If we can't be brave now, what are we?" ...

The Nightmare Before Christmas

Tim Burton & The Haunted Mansion

Tim Burton's Disneyland

Disneyland is bringing Tim Burton's ``The Nightmare Before Christmas'' to life, sequel style.

The theme park on Thursday unveiled an updated haunted mansion inspired by the movie about a pumpkin king who tries to bring Halloween scariness to Christmas.

The attraction, dubbed ``Haunted Mansion Holiday, is the centerpiece of Disneyland's holiday season celebration, said spokeswoman Michele Nachum. Creative director Steve Davison said the mansion picks up where Burton's movie left off.

Visitors are taken on a tour of the house by Jack Skellington - the movie's lead, who apparently decorated the house to suit his Halloween-ish style.

As a result, the attraction includes very unDisneyland moments: Christmas trees with pumpkin decorations, bizarre toys and sight gags.

Nepotism Doesn't Provide The Best Or The Brightest

FCC F's Up, Again

Federal Communications Commission chairman Michael Powell told an audience in Hollywood Friday that broadcasters, rather than the U.S. government, should regulate violence shown on television.
Powell, speaking to the Hollywood Radio and Television Society, said the television industry would be better off regulating itself, blocking gratuitous violence and making judgments about when it should be aired.
Sen. Ernest Hollings, a South Carolina Democrat, pledged earlier this year to create so-called ``safe-harbor'' legislation that would restrict violent TV shows to late night, when young children would presumably be in bed.

Powell, asked about such legislation, said it would be difficult for the U.S. government to decide what kind of violence needed to be restricted.

``It's imponderable,'' Powell, the son of U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, said. ``We are a justifiably violent society. We're fighting in Afghanistan right now.''

``TV violence, when treated artistically is (necessary) to telling the story,'' Powell said. ``But when there is unjustifiable, gratuitous violence I'd rather see this community have the responsibility rather than the government.''

'We are a justifiably violent society'


Let's see....first they deregulated, then killed the 'fairness doctrine'...then they allowed Rupert Murdock to gut the 'family hour'....now, we have less than a dozen companies controlling all the media....yeah, they really are looking out for the public's airwaves---oh, wait--they gave those airwaves to the media companies with the Communications Act of 1996.

And now, Michael is talking about artistic violence---guess that means so long as it's violence perpetrated on a woman, with a nice music background, it's OK, because it's artistic,and moves the 'story'.

2 New Shows Renewed

"Scrubs" & "Guardian"

With the Tuesday night hospital comedy faring well in Frasier's footsteps, NBC is picking up the series for a full season. The network has followed up on its original 13-episode commitment by ordering another nine episodes of the Touchstone Television show, which stars Zach Braff and Donald Faison as a pair of emergency-room neophytes.

NBC didn't have to think much before committing to Scrubs. Since its October 2 debut, the 9:30 p.m. series has been capitalizing on its Frasier lead-in power, hanging onto a healthy share of the Seattle shrink's audience with an average 13.2 million viewers. Scrubs also has become one of the highest-rated new shows among adults 18-49, the demographic craved by advertisers.

Also in the no-brainer department, CBS has announced it's picking up a full season of its own Tuesday-night champ, The Guardian. The drama, starring Simon Baker as a corporate lawyer ordered to go pro bono at a child advocacy office after getting busted for drugs, has won its 9 p.m. time period for the last two weeks and scored its biggest audience Tuesday with 15.1 million viewers. That's made the series a nice fit between CBS' other hit dramas, JAG and Judging Amy.

Both The Guardian and Scrubs are expected to be joined by other promising rookie performers in the coming weeks.

SAG Getting Tough?

3 Members Expelled

The Screen Actors Guild's board of directors has expelled three members it said either worked on or auditioned for commercials during the union's strike last year against the advertising industry.

The three were identified Thursday as Southern California area members Gerry Donato and Mario Barbieri Cecchini and New York area member Robert Kalomeer. A call to Donato was not immediately returned Thursday night. Cecchini and Kalomeer could not immediately be located for comment.

Each was kicked out following a Trial Board hearing, said SAG spokesman Greg Krizman.

``Our membership has been firm in its resolve to provide member benefits only to those performers who stood in solidarity with the guild during the strike,'' Krizman said.

The six-month strike, the longest in Hollywood history, ended last fall after both sides compromised on demands involving residual payments. The strike cost the Los Angeles area economy an estimated $125 million in lost production.

SAG Gets Tough


Gee, they tossed out 3 members, yet they allowed Tiger Woods & Elizabeth Hurley to do as they pleased, and stay. Who made more money during the strike?
Tiger & Elizabeth both made more than enough to cover fines, but, 3 guys no one ever heard of, yeah, let's make an example of them...
At least in colder climes, one is only expected to shovel in the winter. In LA, one becomes accustomed to shoveling every day---'cept it ain't fluffy, and it smells bad, too.
