Come on down! You're the next TV celebrity whose death has been falsely reported on the Internet!<br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Olbermann">The MSNBC <em>Countdown's</em> Wikipedia page</a> reported he had died earlier this morning, possibly due to complications from celiac disease. <br /><br />I sent emails to two networks officials to confirm this jarring claim. Jeremy Gaines, MSNBC's vice president of communications, responded that he is certain the entry is a "hoax" and that he and other network officials were working to correct it. The section on Olbermann's death has since been removed from the page.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/07/01/exclusive-keith-olbermann-is-not-dead/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19083508/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/07/01/exclusive-keith-olbermann-is-not-dead/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>britney spears</category><category>britney spears baby</category><category>britney spears comeback</category><category>britney spears pregnant</category><category>britney spears vmas</category><category>BritneySpears</category><category>BritneySpearsBaby</category><category>BritneySpearsComeback</category><category>BritneySpearsPregnant</category><category>BritneySpearsVmas</category><category>colbert report</category><category>colbert report videos</category><category>ColbertReport</category><category>ColbertReportVideos</category><category>comedy central</category><category>ComedyCentral</category><category>countdown with keith olbermann</category><category>countdown with keith...</category><category>CountdownWithKeith...</category><category>CountdownWithKeithOlbermann</category><category>ellen degeneres</category><category>ellen degeneres dress</category><category>ellen degeneres fashion</category><category>ellen degeneres hosts</category><category>ellen degeneres show</category><category>ellen degeneress</category><category>EllenDegeneres</category><category>EllenDegeneresDress</category><category>EllenDegeneresFashion</category><category>EllenDegeneresHosts</category><category>EllenDegeneress</category><category>EllenDegeneresShow</category><category>jeff goldblum</category><category>jeff goldblum alive</category><category>jeff goldblum dead</category><category>jeff goldblum dead hoax</category><category>jeff goldblum death hoax</category><category>jeff goldblum new zealand</category><category>JeffGoldblum</category><category>JeffGoldblumAlive</category><category>JeffGoldblumDead</category><category>JeffGoldblumDeadHoax</category><category>JeffGoldblumDeathHoax</category><category>JeffGoldblumNewZealand</category><category>keith ol</category><category>keith olberman</category><category>keith olbermann</category><category>KeithOl</category><category>KeithOlberman</category><category>KeithOlbermann</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>msnbc</category><category>people who are not dead</category><category>PeopleWhoAreNotDead</category><category>stephen colbert</category><category>stephen colbert videos</category><category>StephenColbert</category><category>StephenColbertVideos</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jul 2009 08:25:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>JONAS in iCarly witness relocation while Hannah and Sonny get renewals</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/06/02/jonas-in-icarly-witness-relocation-while-hannah-and-sonny-get-re/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/06/02/jonas-in-icarly-witness-relocation-while-hannah-and-sonny-get-re/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/06/02/jonas-in-icarly-witness-relocation-while-hannah-and-sonny-get-re/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/comedy/" rel="tag">Other Comedy Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/programming/" rel="tag">Programming</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/children/" rel="tag">Children</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/pickups-and-renewals/" rel="tag">Pickups and Renewals</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img hspace="4" border="0" align="right" vspace="4" alt="Hannah Montana" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/06/hannah-montana_090602.jpg" />Looks like the Disney Channel underestimated the power of Nickelodeon's <em>iCarly</em>. Their attempts to squash the possible threat to their <em>Hannah Montana</em> empire were squashed, however, when a special <em>iCarly</em> smashed the second episode of <em>JONAS</em>, the new star vehicle for the Jonas Brothers. So to make themselves feel better, and despite what Miley Cyrus may have been saying, the show will go on. <a href="http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b126865_hannah_montana_staying_jonas_moving.html?utm_source=eonline&amp;utm_medium=rssfeeds&amp;utm_campaign=rss_topstories">Disney has picked up <em>Hannah Montana</em> for a fourth season</a>, as well as Demi Lovato's <em>Sonny With a Chance</em> for a second.<br /><br />As for <em>JONAS</em>, it's already been yanked from Saturdays where, despite an impressive debut, it got slammed in its second outing by <em>iCarly</em>. So now, it's joining the Disney Sunday lineup, where it can nestle snugly behind <em>Hannah Montana</em> and <em>Sonny With a Chance</em>. This does create a powerhouse Sunday night for the network, while protecting the two newer shows with the power of Miley Cyrus.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/06/02/jonas-in-icarly-witness-relocation-while-hannah-and-sonny-get-re/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19054938/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/06/02/jonas-in-icarly-witness-relocation-while-hannah-and-sonny-get-re/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>billy ray cyrus</category><category>BillyRayCyrus</category><category>demi lovato</category><category>DemiLovato</category><category>disney channel</category><category>DisneyChannel</category><category>hannah montana</category><category>HannahMontana</category><category>icarly</category><category>JONAS</category><category>jonas brothers</category><category>JonasBrothers</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>nickelodeon</category><category>sonny with a chance</category><category>SonnyWithAChance</category><dc:creator>Jason Hughes</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2009 18:07:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Disney grooming Wizards of Waverly Place to be their "next big thing"</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/05/02/disney-grooming-wizards-of-waverly-place-to-be-their-next-big-t/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/05/02/disney-grooming-wizards-of-waverly-place-to-be-their-next-big-t/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/05/02/disney-grooming-wizards-of-waverly-place-to-be-their-next-big-t/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/comedy/" rel="tag">Other Comedy Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/children/" rel="tag">Children</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/pickups-and-renewals/" rel="tag">Pickups and Renewals</a></p><img hspace="4" border="0" align="right" vspace="4" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/05/wizards-of-waverly-place_090501.jpg" alt="Wizards of Waverly Place" />Disney is doing everything they can to make sure that their target demo of 9-14 year olds can't breathe without choking on the Russos of <em>Wizards of Waverly Place</em>. Other than that, And with Miley Cyrus talking publicly about life after <em>Hannah Montana</em>, whenever that might be, it's time to look to <em>Wizards of Waverly Place's</em> Selena Gomez. As such, <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/televisionNews/idUSTRE5401HF20090501">Disney has renewed <em>Wizards</em> for a third season</a> and even greenlit a telefilm for the property.<br /><br /> What they really need to do is stream it on Hulu to ensure it is.

Here are some of their musings on the latest blockbusters, indies, and everything in between:<br /><br />
<ul>
    <li>As much as I love Seth Rogen, <em>Observe and Report</em> looks just a little too much like <em>Paul Blart: Mall Cop</em> for my tastes. <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2009/04/10/review-observe-and-report/">Read the review</a> and see if it's actually worth checking out this weekend.</li>
    <li>I would say that not only should <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2009/04/09/cinematical-seven-tv-stars-who-should-be-in-more-movies-male-e/">Jon Hamm be in <em>more</em> movies</a>, but Jon Hamm should be in <em>every</em> movie. Crazy? Maybe. Awesome? Definitely.</li>
    <li>If you have kids who are into Miley Cyrus, you're going to be seeing<em> Hannah Montana</em> this weekend, regardless of the reviews. However, <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2009/04/09/review-hannah-montana-the-movie/">it may not hurt to read one</a> just to see what you may be getting yourself into.</li>
    <li><a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2009/04/09/8-mile-and-die-hard-reimagined-as-50s-french-classics/"><em>8 Mile</em> and <em>Die Hard</em> reimagined as 50s French Classics</a>? Uh, okay. Why not?</li>
    <li>Cinematical puts out a call for <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2009/04/09/are-you-a-woman-who-hates-the-big-lebowski-then-i-want-to-hea/">women who hate <em>The Big Lebowski</em></a>. I am definiitely not one of them.</li>

Look how well that worked out for David Caruso when he told <em>NYPD Blue</em> to kiss his ass so he could be the next big Hollywood movie star? Granted, Miley Cyrus' level of celebrity is on a completely different plane than Lt. Horatio Caine; I don't recall Caruso on the cover of <em>Tiger Beat</em> every week back in the day.<br /><br />Nevertheless, Miley Cyrus indicated that she would be <a href="http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/marc_malkin/b107845_miley_cyrus_no_more_television_after.html?sid=rss_topstories&amp;utm_source=eonline&amp;utm_medium=rssfeeds&amp;utm_campaign=rss_topstories">done with television </a>after <em>Hannah Montana</em> wraps its run on the Disney Channel. She's already said she doesn't want to do <em>Hannah Montana</em> in film any more either. So it looks like Cyrus will be looking to follow the path that Lizzy McGuire AKA Hilary Duff did when she walked away from the Mouse.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/04/06/what-will-tv-do-without-hannah-montana/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1509448/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/04/06/what-will-tv-do-without-hannah-montana/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>billy ray cyrus</category><category>BillyRayCyrus</category><category>disney franchise</category><category>DisneyFranchise</category><category>hannah montana</category><category>HannahMontana</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>no more hannah montana</category><category>NoMoreHannahMontana</category><dc:creator>Jason Hughes</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2009 19:10:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>How's Your News? -- An early look</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/02/07/hows-your-news-an-early-look/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/02/07/hows-your-news-an-early-look/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/02/07/hows-your-news-an-early-look/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/comedy/" rel="tag">Other Comedy Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality/" rel="tag">Other Reality Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/news/" rel="tag">News</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/music-and-variety/" rel="tag">Music and Variety</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/talk-show/" rel="tag">Talk Show</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/early-looks/" rel="tag">Early Looks</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><img hspace="4" height="182" border="0" align="right" width="250" vspace="4" alt="How's Your News?

That assumption doesn't help when you see <span style="font-style: italic;">South Park </span>creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker's names under the executive producer heading, two guys who made the phrase "Timmy!" and "cripple fight" part of the American pop culture lexicon. <br /><br />But as <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/02/06/matt-stone-the-tv-squad-interview-video/">Stone said himself in my soon-to-be awarding winning interview</a> (my boss said he would put a gold star on my next paycheck), <span style="font-style: italic;">How's Your News?</span> -- which premieres at 10:30 tomorrow night on MTV -- aims to change the audience's perspective on more than one level. <br /><br />It's a journey of self-discovery for both the participants and the viewers and that's a big step for a network that has had a hard time figuring out what it's supposed to be.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/02/07/hows-your-news-an-early-look/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1453446/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/02/07/hows-your-news-an-early-look/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>ben affleck</category><category>BenAffleck</category><category>hows your news</category><category>HowsYourNews</category><category>jimmy kimmel</category><category>JimmyKimmel</category><category>john stamos</category><category>JohnStamos</category><category>matt stone</category><category>MattStone</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>mtv</category><category>sarah silverman</category><category>SarahSilverman</category><category>south park</category><category>SouthPark</category><category>trey parker</category><category>TreyParker</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 07 Feb 2009 19:11:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>An item for those who haven't had their fill of Miley or the Jo Bros</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/01/19/an-item-for-those-who-havent-had-their-fill-of-miley-or-the-jo/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/01/19/an-item-for-those-who-havent-had-their-fill-of-miley-or-the-jo/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/01/19/an-item-for-those-who-havent-had-their-fill-of-miley-or-the-jo/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/programming/" rel="tag">Programming</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/music-and-variety/" rel="tag">Music and Variety</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/children/" rel="tag">Children</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><p><img hspace="4" height="259" border="0" align="right" width="200" vspace="4" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/01/jobros_119.jpg" alt="Haven't had enough of the Jo Bros. Well, you'll have a chance to see more of them Monday night." />Admit it ... you're obsessed with the Jonas Brothers (known in the tween world as the Jo Bros) and Miley Cyrus (known in the tween world as -- Miley Cyrus). You wake up in <em>Hannah Montana </em>pajamas, you eat your cereal with your Miley Cyrus spoon, and you make sure you have safe sex with your Jo Bros' IUD. But, you need more to satisfy your craving for Disneyfied bubblegum rock and pop. Thing is, you fear that you have exhausted all of your resources.</p>
<p>Have some faith, slightly creepy one. Fact of the matter is the Disney Channel is watching your back. Starting at 5:30 pm tonight, the network will be premiering the Jonas Brothers' newest video, as well as Miley's first video from her new <em>Hannah Montana </em>movie. If that weren't enough to sustain you, Disney will be broadcasting the <em>Kids Inaugural: We Are the Future</em> concert, which will feature not only the Jo Bros and Miley, but Demi Lovato and Bow Wow (no longer 'Little').</p>
<p>See? Everything will be okay. Now you can get dressed in your <em>High School Musical</em> pants suit and head out to your job as CEO of a multi-billion dollar company.</p>

I really do get why <a href="http://www.oprah.com">Oprah</a> is powerful. She's in charge of her own show (remember years ago when she fought to gain control and fired a bunch of people?); she's launched a bunch of other shows, including <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/05/oprahs-talk-show-future-might-be-all-her-own/">Rachel Ray, Dr. Phil, and maybe Dr. Oz coming up</a>; she opened that school for girls in Africa; people read the books she recommends; they buy the stuff she likes; and she even had a hand in getting Obama into the White House.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/06/dear-oprah-power-doesnt-equal-popularity/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1393137/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/06/dear-oprah-power-doesnt-equal-popularity/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>angelina jolie</category><category>AngelinaJolie</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>oprah</category><category>power 100</category><category>Power100</category><category>powerful women</category><category>PowerfulWomen</category><category>rachael ray</category><category>RachaelRay</category><category>shonda rhimes</category><category>ShondaRhimes</category><category>tina fey</category><category>TinaFey</category><category>women in entertainment</category><category>WomenInEntertainment</category><dc:creator>Jane Boursaw</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 06 Dec 2008 11:03:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Disney orders more Hannah Montana</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/03/disney-orders-more-hannah-montana/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/03/disney-orders-more-hannah-montana/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/03/disney-orders-more-hannah-montana/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/programming/" rel="tag">Programming</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/pickups-and-renewals/" rel="tag">Pickups and Renewals</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img hspace="4" height="265" border="0" align="right" width="250" vspace="4" alt="Miley and Mickey" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/08/cyrus16_82508.jpg" />The Disney Channel has ordered <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/television/news/e3i726f0f4961487c61b73bad3b114c1275">six additional episodes</a> for the third season of their ridiculously successful series <em>Hannah Montana</em>. The series stars teen icon Miley Cyrus in an effort to maximize her exposure before she is <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/03/19/south-park-britneys-new-look/">sacrificed for the harvest</a>.<br /><br />This brings the number of total episodes of the season to 30.  When does any show get thirty episodes per season? The number I've always understood to be the maximum is 24 (and that's only for a series that is actually called <em>24</em>). My guess is they're trying to wring as much they can from Miley before she goes to her inevitable solo career. Perhaps Disney should just create a new character for the franchise: Miley Mouse.<br /><br />As a side note, Disney has also ordered more episodes of <em>The Suite Life on Deck</em>, a series I've never heard of but I'm sure parents of very young children will be sick of before too long.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/03/disney-orders-more-hannah-montana/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1389879/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/12/03/disney-orders-more-hannah-montana/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>Disney</category><category>Disney Channel</category><category>DisneyChannel</category><category>Hannah Montana</category><category>HannahMontana</category><category>Miley Cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>Walt Disney</category><category>WaltDisney</category><dc:creator>Brad Trechak</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 03 Dec 2008 09:30:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars: Week 10 The Finale</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/26/dancing-with-the-stars-week-10-the-finale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/26/dancing-with-the-stars-week-10-the-finale/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/26/dancing-with-the-stars-week-10-the-finale/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><p><img height="265" alt="Lance Bass, Brooke Burke, Warren Sapp - Dancing With The Stars" hspace="4" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/11/dwts112308.jpg" width="425" align="middle" vspace="4" border="1" /><br />(<em>S07E21</em>) In the grand tradition of <em>Dancing With The Stars</em>, everyone came together for the glorious task of turning 3 minutes of results into a two hour ratings bonanza. If you have seen the finale before, you know how it all went down. Take a couple of musical numbers, interviews or dances with all the eliminated contestants, and add in a whole lot of replays as the show looks back at all that has gone on. It's not the greatest recipe for a two hour show, but after 20 episodes of top ten numbers, I suppose they've earned it. I'll not spoil the big surprise before the jump, so hit the link for a brief look at all that went on, and to find out who took home the mirrorball.</p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/26/dancing-with-the-stars-week-10-the-finale/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1383483/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/26/dancing-with-the-stars-week-10-the-finale/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>alecia keys</category><category>AleciaKeys</category><category>brooke burke</category><category>BrookeBurke</category><category>bruno tonioli</category><category>BrunoTonioli</category><category>carrie ann inaba</category><category>CarrieAnnInaba</category><category>DancingWithTheStarsRecap</category><category>finale</category><category>jeffrey ross</category><category>JeffreyRoss</category><category>lance bass</category><category>LanceBass</category><category>len goodman</category><category>LenGoodman</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>samantha harris</category><category>SamanthaHarris</category><category>season finale</category><category>SeasonFinale</category><category>tom bergeron</category><category>TomBergeron</category><category>warren sapp</category><category>WarrenSapp</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 26 Nov 2008 00:15:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Right Now on Cinematical</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/21/right-now-on-cinematical/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/21/right-now-on-cinematical/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/21/right-now-on-cinematical/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/site-announcements/" rel="tag">Site Announcements</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img hspace="4" height="61" width="250" vspace="4" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/11/cinematicallogo250.jpg" alt="" />The folks at our sister site <a href="http://www.cinematical.com">Cinematical </a>are working hard to give you news and reviews of the best -- and worst -- the silver screen has to offer. Here are some of their latest musings on the latest blockbusters, indies, and everything in between:<br /><br />
<ul>
    <li>Disney's coming out with a non-Pixar animated movie. It involves Miley Cyrus and an adorable puppy! But is it any good? Find out when <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2008/11/21/review-bolt/">Cinematical reviews <em>Bolt</em></a>.</li>
    <li>Apparently Australia makes movies. You know, other than the upcoming <em>Australia</em>. They're not movies <em>I've</em> ever seen, but the <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2008/11/20/cinematical-seven-great-exports-from-down-under/">Cinematical Seven</a> takes a look at the greatest movies to come from the former penal colony.</li>
    <li>Look, if you're my fourteen-year-old niece, you're going to put on your Hot Topic arm warmers and see <em>Twilight </em>the moment it comes out. It will quickly become the Best. Movie. Ever., regardless of whether or not it's actually good. For those of you who are old like me, you may want to check out <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2008/11/20/review-twilight/">Peter Martin's review of <em>Twilight</em></a> to see if this vampire love story (that's what it is, right?) is worth shelling out ten bucks for.</li>
    <li>Dude. <em>Twilight </em>is huge. Cinematical is taking care of all of your <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2008/11/19/interview-twilight-star-kristen-stewart/">Kristen Stewart interview</a> needs. She's the human lady, right?.</li>
    <li>So the ending of 1986's <em>Little Shop of Horrors</em>? Not the original one. Cinematcial has the <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2008/11/19/watch-this-original-ending-for-little-shop-of-horrors/">much darker ending here</a>.</li>

I'll come clean and even announce that <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/tag/miley+cyrus/">Miley Cyrus</a>, <a href="http://tv.disney.go.com/disneychannel/originalmovies/cheetahgirls/franchise/index.html">The Cheetah Girls</a>, and Demi Lovato share iPod space with AC/DC, Jeff Beck, and Aerosmith. Hey, those Disney Channel tunes are catchy, and they're easy to dance, I mean, walk to. I draw the line at the <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/24/no-suprise-there-disney-working-on-a-camp-rock-sequel/">Jonas Brothers</a>, though. <br /><br />But about 10 minutes into the new <a href="http://tv.disney.go.com/disneychannel/originalmovies/cheetahgirlsoneworld/"><em>Cheetah Girls: One World</em></a> movie the other night, my daughter looked at me and said, "I was really hoping these Cheetah Girls movies would get better." Yeah, me, too.<br /><br />I actually liked the first two movies, in 2003 and 2006, respectively. The second, directed by <a href="http://tv.disney.go.com/disneychannel/originalmovies/highschoolmusical/"><em>High School Musical</em></a> alum Kenny Ortega, was a downright cute tale about the Girls' escapades in Spain.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/08/26/cheetah-girls-score-high-in-ratings-say-what/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1294927/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/08/26/cheetah-girls-score-high-in-ratings-say-what/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>beijing 2008</category><category>Beijing2008</category><category>cheetah girls</category><category>CheetahGirls</category><category>demi lovato</category><category>DemiLovato</category><category>disney channel</category><category>DisneyChannel</category><category>jonas brothers</category><category>JonasBrothers</category><category>kenny ortega</category><category>KennyOrtega</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>nbc</category><category>raven-symone</category><dc:creator>Jane Boursaw</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 26 Aug 2008 08:19:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Have a slice of birthday cake with Miley Cyrus at Disneyland</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/08/25/have-a-slice-of-birthday-cake-with-miley-cyrus-at-disneyland/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/08/25/have-a-slice-of-birthday-cake-with-miley-cyrus-at-disneyland/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/08/25/have-a-slice-of-birthday-cake-with-miley-cyrus-at-disneyland/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/children/" rel="tag">Children</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><p><img width="250" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="265" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/08/cyrus16_82508.jpg" alt="Got a few hundred bucks? Then you can go wish Miley Cyrus a happy birthday at Disneyland" />Parents, it is time to put our collective feet firmly on the ground. We have spent the last year-and-a-half pumping billions of dollars into the monstrosity that is the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus empire with the ever-increasing amount of products that give our daughters fits whenever they see them in the store. Everything and anything with even a picture of The Hannah or Miley has come into our homes, making our childless neighbors or those with a cadre of boys scratch their heads in curiosity as to why this teenager's face graces so many surfaces.</p>
<p>Well, I say enough is enough! Time to put down our wallets and purses, straighten up and notify our children, in a firm but gentle manner, that we will no longer be supporting their Hannah/Miley addiction. The best place to start is to let them know that, in no uncertain terms, will we be plunking down $250 a pop (plus airfare, lodging, and rental car) to <a href="http://www.mouseplanet.com/articles.php?art=dl080825xx">wish Ms. Cyrus a happy 16th birthday at Disneyland</a> on October 5th. Oh, Cyrus will perform a few songs at the party, and it will be limited to 5000 of her closest fans. But, will the cost be worth it for something your daughters will forget when Miley eventually fades into the limelight and they begin to think about (gasp!) boys?</p>
<p>But, if you can't resist, you better get to your phone, computer, or Disneyland now to be one of the first when tickets go on sale this Saturday at 9:00 AM PDT (that's noon to us East Coasters). Don't worry, the rest of us will be there to support you when you return. Just make sure you bring pictures and souvenirs of the event. Hey, we have only so much strength, you know!</p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/08/25/have-a-slice-of-birthday-cake-with-miley-cyrus-at-disneyland/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1294469/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/08/25/have-a-slice-of-birthday-cake-with-miley-cyrus-at-disneyland/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>16th Birthday</category><category>16thBirthday</category><category>250 dollars</category><category>250Dollars</category><category>5000 fans</category><category>5000Fans</category><category>August 30 tickets</category><category>August30Tickets</category><category>Disneyland</category><category>Hannah Montana</category><category>HannahMontana</category><category>Miley Cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><dc:creator>Richard Keller</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 25 Aug 2008 17:22:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dance Battle!

No, Lil C and his crew won't be there crumping. Miley Cyrus and Mandy Jiroux's M&amp;M Cru will battle ACDC, the dance crew featuring Jon M. Chu and Adam Sevani of <em>Step Up 2: The Streets</em>. The two crews are BFFs and they challenged each other back in April. A more heated rivalry has not been seen since TuPac and Biggie. Yeah! Totally street. "Street" is even in the name of the movie. <br /><br />The <em>Teen Choice Awards</em> have some other performers and appearances lined up too. But they're not "street" so who cares? Shia LaBeouf, David Archuleta, James Marsden, Sophia Bush, Josh Holloway, Scarlett Johansson, Zac Efron, Pink, JoJo, Kristen Bell, and Hayden Panettiere are some of the other names previously announced. Mariah Carey is slated to perform her new single, "I'll Be Lovin' You Long Time." <br /><br />The <em>Teen Choice Awards</em> will air on August 4th at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Fox.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/07/24/dance-battle-crews-will-face-off-on-the-teen-choice-awards/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1265602/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/07/24/dance-battle-crews-will-face-off-on-the-teen-choice-awards/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>awards</category><category>dance battle</category><category>dance crew</category><category>DanceBattle</category><category>DanceCrew</category><category>fox</category><category>mandy jiroux</category><category>MandyJiroux</category><category>mariah carey</category><category>MariahCarey</category><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>step up 2 the streets</category><category>StepUp2TheStreets</category><category>teen choice awards</category><category>TeenChoiceAwards</category><dc:creator>Kristin Sample</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 24 Jul 2008 07:03:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>2008 Teen Choice Awards TV nominees</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/2008-teen-choice-awards-tv-nominees/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/2008-teen-choice-awards-tv-nominees/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/2008-teen-choice-awards-tv-nominees/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/awards/" rel="tag">Awards</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/american-idol-host/" rel="tag">Host</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebreality/" rel="tag">Celebreality</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="258" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/06/miley-cyrus-blow_080617.jpg" alt="Miley Cyrus" />The 2008 Teen Choice Awards nominees are in and if you're a teen (that's between 13 and 19 years old for the math impaired among us), you can get your vote on once a day over at <a href="http://www.teenchoiceawards.com/">www.TeenChoiceAwards.com</a>. If you've just put in a turkey to roast and have some time, you can follow the link to the complete list of <a href="http://www.chiff.com/pop-culture/teen-choice-awards.htm">Teen Choice Awards 2008 nominees</a>, of which I can only say ... damn, that's a lot of categories. Do teens really have that kind of attention span anymore to make it through these categories and vote? <br /><br />As reported earlier, Miley Cyrus has been signed to host with the show airing Monday, August 4 at 8pm ET. I've dropped in the TV-only categories and nominees after the jump, and there are a ton of categories covering a much wider range of television shows than really any of the major television awards do. There are oodles of reality show categories and more specifically, a category for "looking for love" reality shows. Really? And still only one category for animated shows?<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/2008-teen-choice-awards-tv-nominees/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1228680/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/2008-teen-choice-awards-tv-nominees/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>miley cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>tca</category><category>teen choice awards</category><category>TeenChoiceAwards</category><dc:creator>Jason Hughes</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 18 Jun 2008 10:22:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Miley Cyrus to host Teen Choice Awards</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/milery-cyrus-to-host-teen-choice-awards/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/milery-cyrus-to-host-teen-choice-awards/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/18/milery-cyrus-to-host-teen-choice-awards/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/awards/" rel="tag">Awards</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/casting/" rel="tag">Casting</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="313" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/06/miley-cyrus_080617.jpg" alt="Miley Cyrus" />Still haven't had enough of <em>Hannah Montana</em>? Well, you're in luck then because teen sensation Hannah Montana AKA <a href="http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-teenchoice2008hostnominees,0,561465.story?track=rss">Miley Cyrus has been slated to host the 2008 Teen Choice Awards</a>. She's also up for three awards herself, which is nice and all, but pales in comparison to the CW's <em>Gossip Girl</em> with 14 and Chris Brown with nine. I've seen Cyrus in interviews and ad-libbing and she seems incredibly competent and comfortable so I expect she'll do a fine job hosting. The ceremony is set for Monday, August 4 at 8 ET on FOX.<br /><br />I hate to say it, but do you think there's a legion of people out there just waiting for her to lose it the way many of the teen starlets eventually do. Maybe not as bad as Lindsay "You Really Don't Want to Mess With the" Lohan. But you know they've got the countdown clock for her eighteenth birthday, and they're all throwing little parties because of those <a href="http://hitsusa.com/blog/466/miley-cyrus-myspace-pics/">Miley Cyrus naughty MySpace pics</a>.

First <a href="http://goldderby.latimes.com/awards_goldderby/ 2008/06/katherine-heigl.html"><em>Grey's Anatomy</em> <em> </em>star -- and last year's Emmy winner -- Katherine Heigl removed her name from consideration for an Emmy</a> in 2008, and now another has followed suit.<br /><br /><a href="http://goldderby.latimes.com/awards_goldderby/2008/06/lindsay-lohan-d.html">Lindsay Lohan is not submitting her <em>Ugly Betty</em> performance for Emmy consideration</a>. What? You don't remember Lindsay's performance, those few minutes of a flashback when Betty recalls being used as a dodge ball target in high school? Yeah, Lindsay really put in Emmy-worthy work there!<br /><br />This is so ridiculous when it comes to Lindsay. There was no chance she'd be nominated, so removing her name is a stunt. On the other hand, Heigl's move is a real slap in the face to the writers of<em> </em><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/greys-anatomy/"><em>Grey's Anatomy</em></a>.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/14/lindsay-lohan-bows-out-of-emmy-consideration-really/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1225572/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/14/lindsay-lohan-bows-out-of-emmy-consideration-really/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>ABC</category><category>Britney Spears</category><category>BritneySpears</category><category>Don Knotts</category><category>DonKnotts</category><category>Emmy</category><category>Greys Anatomy</category><category>GreysAnatomy</category><category>Hannah Montana</category><category>HannahMontana</category><category>How I Met Your Mother</category><category>HowIMetYourMother</category><category>John Larroquette</category><category>JohnLarroquette</category><category>Katherine Heigl</category><category>KatherineHeigl</category><category>Lindsay Lohan</category><category>LindsayLohan</category><category>Miley Cyrus</category><category>MileyCyrus</category><category>Monk</category><category>nominations</category><category>Tony Shaloub</category><category>TonyShaloub</category><category>Ugly Betty</category><category>UglyBetty</category><dc:creator>Allison Waldman</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 14 Jun 2008 13:24:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>ABC pays tribute to the wonderful world of Disney</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/11/abc-pays-tribute-to-the-wonderful-world-of-disney/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/11/abc-pays-tribute-to-the-wonderful-world-of-disney/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/06/11/abc-pays-tribute-to-the-wonderful-world-of-disney/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/programming/" rel="tag">Programming</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/animation/" rel="tag">Animation</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/children/" rel="tag">Children</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><a href="http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=20080610abc01"><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="282" border="0" align="right" alt="Hannah Montana" id="img1" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/06/0000041237_20070706150719%282%29.jpg" />ABC will be airing Disney favorites</a> this summer every Saturday evening. John Goodman, the Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, and Jamie Lee Curtis are just a few of the special guest hosts who will be hosting these "movie nights." <br /><br />From the looks of the schedule, ABC is showing mostly newer Disney films. While I love films like <em>Monsters Inc</em>., I wish ABC would pay tribute to the older Disney movies like <em>Robin Hood</em>, <em>The Sword in the Stone</em>, and <em>Cinderella</em>. <br /><br />I have the full schedule after the jump.

Now Kathy Griffin is telling <span style="font-style: italic;">Entertainment Weekly </span><a href="http://hollywoodinsider.ew.com/2008/04/kathy-griffins.html">she was fired from the series</a> for comments she made at last year's Creative Arts Emmys. <br /><br />I dunno. Does "Suck it, Jesus! This award is my god now!" seem all that bad? That's probably one of the classier things the <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/29/bravo-orders-up-more-d-list/">D-List</a> comedian has ever said. <br /><br />But Griffin didn't go quietly into the night, opting instead to fire off a few shots at the show's star, Miley Cyrus, whose <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/28/miley-cyrus-vs-vanity-fair/">racy <span style="font-style: italic;">Vanity Fair</span> photos</a> are making the water cooler rounds this week.
