What's happening on other blogs via the interweb.

• Who would win in a fight between Captain Kirk and The Fonz?
• A quiz: Is it from Shakespeare or The Hills?
• Everything's better on the set of Grey's Anatomy this season.
• In the Huffington Post's video round-up, Meredith Vieira tries extreme sports, Gordon Ramsay gets into an argument with a restaurant patron in New Jersey, and Tila Tequila gives a grandmother a lapdance.
• Which Wisteria Lane character is going to die tonight?
• The writers from The Late Show with David Letterman are keeping a funny blog during the strike.
• That interview that Bill O'Reilly did with ALF the other night was incredibly lame.

Mark your calendars kids, or not, Meredith Vieira is heading back to The View, for one day anyway, on October 8th. She'll be there to promote her Who Wants To Be A Millionaire game show and a DVD game that is coming out based on the show. I always seem to forget that she even does that because, man, I just don't get the attraction to Millionaire. It's just so dang slow. How that show made it while Beat The Geeks disappeared just boggles me.

Anyway, I suspect it will be all warm and fuzzy with a lot of palms getting sore as the whole group pats each other on the back for all the wonderfulness they are all putting out in the world, or something like that. An entirely different vibe than what we would get if this headline was Rosie returning to the view. Or even Star Jones, for that matter.

• The secret that everyone already knew.
• Hurricane Dean is coming, and that means the news networks are going crazy.
• Get ready for a ton of "How are Katie Couric and Meredith Vieira doing one year later?" stories (Sept. 5 for Katie, the following week for Meredith).
• Paris Hilton has a new line of children's clothing.
• Here's video of Alex Trebek screwing up on the Jeopardy! set and swearing.
• The art of the TV Mashup.
• Jaime Weinman shows up some of TV's most depressing intros.

• Now both NBC and Barbara Walters have said no to a Paris Hilton interview.
• Nicole Richie might be going to jail too.
• It's a good thing Steve Carell has that day job over at The Office.
• A funny list of TV pilots that didn't make it.
• Here's a whole gallery of photos from Pamela Anderson's DirectTV commercial shoot.
• BuddyTV has an interview with Traveler's Matthew Bomer.
• Stephen Colbert has some thoughts on that condom ad rejected by CBS and FOX.

First they paid $2.5 million for a sit-down with Prince William and Prince Harry (not to them but to a charity), and now The New York Post is reporting that NBC is going to pay $1 million to Paris Hilton for her first interview when she gets out of jail (not to a charity, to her).

In a funny twist, former View co-hosts Barbara Walters and Meredith Vieira were trying to get the interview. Walter's almost got it until Jeff Zucker called Paris' dad. Vieira will conduct the interview (Hilton doesn't like Matt Lauer, supposedly) the day after Hilton is released from jail.

Vieira will probably do the interview for The Today Show, but NBC will also put some of it on Dateline, some on MSNBC, some on the web. So you won't be able to escape it.

A while back, I showcased some blogs that celebrities were (at the time) keeping. David Duchovny had one for a while, but it was just to promote one of his movies and he stopped it. Zach Braff had one for Garden State, but doesn't update it as much as he used to at his new site (though it's still pretty entertaining). And of course we know that Rosie O'Donnell updates hers, a little too much probably.

But there are other TV celebs who blog too, so it's time for an update. After the jump, a list of some of the better blogs out there.
