CBS has secured
even more celebrities to grace the stage at Radio City Music Hall next Sunday. Gabriel Byrne (
In Treatment), Julie Chen (
Big Brother), Harry Connick, Jr. (
Will & Grace), Laurence Fishburne, Mandy Patinkin
(Criminal Minds), David Hyde Pierce, Lily Tomlin and John Waters (
Til Death Do Us Part) have been added as presenters. These actors and actresses (and, er, Julie Chen) will join an
already stellar list of presenters and host Whoopi Goldberg.
I have to admit it. I'm getting a little excited for The Tonys. I usually find them boring. The performances are fantastic but the awards in between are a bit of a snore.

The 62nd Annual Tony Awards will be held on Sunday June 15th from 8:00 to 11:00 p.m. ET on CBS.

Last week it did, and this week was more of the same.
What made this episode so satisfying to me was that it took the situation over Joy's stealing of the Bargain Bags truck and the kidnapping of its driver--Josh Martin--and brought it to a whole other level. After Earl gets himself stuck trying to get into his car, and with Slow Roger being of no help, he notices a Bargain Bags truck and flashes back to Joy's misdeeds. He decides to do something nice for Josh by having him get a "regular" massage, but to Earl and Randy's great shock, Josh is dead. Of course, death by being crushed in a Murphy Bed certain qualifies for a Darwin Award, but hey, stuff happens.
