Today to host classic TV cast reunions
Reunions are hot, you know? On February 12, for example, Oprah reunited (most of) the kids from The Cosby Show, with Bill appearing via satellite. Well, never one to let a good idea go to waste, NBC jumped on the theme. They recently had a Family Ties reunion on Today, so now the morning show is commencing tomorrow with a series of more "Together Again" features. Tune into 8:00 a.m. hour each day so you don't miss a thing!Continue reading Today to host classic TV cast reunions
CBS and The Singing Office
Remember the South Park episode where manatees were creating jokes for Family Guy by pushing random balls into a hopper? I'm starting to think that the producers of reality television are taking the same approach. How else do you explain the planned CBS show The Singing Office? Based on a popular Dutch show, the premise involves going to an office and making everyone sing. The five best singers from two offices are flown to Los Angeles for a showdown where the teams perform. The audience votes and the winning office takes home the cash. I can only imagine that we were only a couple random balls away from So, Roadcrew Flagmen Think They Can Rollerblade? Not even the prospect of Alan Thicke as host is enough to get me to watch this mess.
Covering the In2TV launch party
Here on TV Squad we already covered the launch of In2TV, a new service that lets you indulge your nostalgia for old shows via
the magic of streaming video. Last night, I got to indulge in a little nostalgia first hand at the In2TV launch party. I
am the worst person to send to events like this; I'm a lurker, too shy to talk to anyone and not the best with a camera,
but as the only L.A.-based member of TV Squad, it was my honor to check out the scene.The event took place at the Museum of Television and Radio in Beverly Hills. Gabe Kaplan took the stage, made a few jokes about the new Welcome Back, Kotter movie and showed off the In2TV concept. He was a good sport and even brought out a paper airplane to put on his head, joking that it didn't stick as well as it used to (aw, Gabe, you're thin on top but we still love you.) He introduced George Lopez who gave a heartfelt tribute to Freddie Prinze, showing clips of the comic's career and snippets of episodes from Chico and the Man. Somehow, in George's speech, he managed to reference the fact that he has one kidney and his wife gave it to him (is there anyone who hasn't heard this story yet?) He announced the In2TV Influencer Award and handed the strangely shaped trophy to Freddie Prinze Jr. Freddie made a brief speech, then Jose Feliciano was brought to the stage to play the Chico and the Man theme (with just a bit of "Light My Fire" thrown in). The crowd was full of old favorites from the TV days of long ago. After the jump, a few familiar faces.
