  Questionable Dark Week Strategy ?         


Author: TomBoston191
Date: May 31, 2008 13:46

I don't understand the logic of showing repeats of such recent shows.
For most of the shows this week I could remember just about every
single joke word for word.
Absolutely zero enjoyment.
Do they expect to win over new fans with this strategy ?
Do they think that loyal fans enjoy this ?
It really makes no sense to me.
I would eagerly tune in for repeats of shows from several years ago.
I think most loyal fans would prefer much older repeats.
Maybe there's some sound business reason for this strategy...
But I don't get it.

Alba appeared in two national television commercials for Nintendo and
J.C. Penney as a child. She was later featured in several independent
films. She branched out into television in 1994 with a recurring role
as the vain Jessica in three episodes of the Nickelodeon comedy series
The Secret World of Alex Mack.[6] She then performed the role of Maya
in the first two seasons of the television series Flipper.[5][6] Under
the tutelage of her lifeguard mother, Alba learned to swim before she
could walk, and she was a PADI-certified scuba diver, skills which
were put to use on the show, which was filmed in Australia.[19][6]

In 1998, she appeared as Melissa Hauer in a first-season episode of
the Steven Bochco crime-drama Brooklyn South, as Leanne in two
episodes of Beverly Hills 90210 and as Layla in an episode of The Love
Boat: The Next Wave. In 1999, she appeared in the Randy Quaid comedy
feature P.U.N.K.S..[5] After Alba graduated from high school, she
studied acting with William H. Macy and his wife, Felicity Huffman, at
the Atlantic Theater Company, which was developed by Macy and Pulitzer
Prize-winning playwright and film director, David Mamet.[17][20]

Japanese scientists create microscopic noodle bowl
By MARI YAMAGUCHI, Associated Press Writer
Thu May 29, 3:22 PM ET

TOKYO - Japanese scientists say they have used cutting-edge technology
to create a noodle bowl so small it can be seen only through a
microscope.

Mechanical engineering professor Masayuki Nakao said Thursday he and
his students at the University of Tokyo used a carbon-based material
to produce a noodle bowl with a diameter 1/25,000 of an inch in a
project aimed at developing nanotube-processing technology.

The Japanese-style ramen bowl was carved out of microscopic nanotubes,
Nakao said.

  RIP: Harvey Korman

I think Harvey makes three this week, right? I will always remember his
hilarious dentist skit on the Carol Burnett show and his constant battle
to fight the giggles when doing any bit with Tim Conway.

Damn.....

LOS ANGELES - Harvey Korman, the tall, versatile comedian who won four
Emmys for his outrageously funny contributions to "The Carol Burnett
Show" and played a conniving politician to hilarious effect in "Blazing
Saddles," died Thursday. He was 81.

Korman died at UCLA Medical Center after suffering complications from
the rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm four months ago, his family
said. He had undergone several major operations.

"He was a brilliant comedian and a brilliant father," daughter Kate
Korman said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "He had
a very good sense of humor in real life. "

A natural second banana, Korman gained attention on "The Danny Kaye
Show," appearing in skits with the star. He joined the show in its
second season in 1964 and continued until it was canceled in 1967. That
same year he became a cast member in the first season of "The Carol
Burnett Show."

Abuse, addiction and abandonment...that's the trifecta of one pissed off
chick!

From the Yahoo....

CHARLESTON, S.C. - The wife of entertainer Bill Murray wants a divorce
after nearly 11 years of marriage.
ADVERTISEMENT

Jennifer Butler Murray filed papers May 12th in Charleston County, South
Carolina, where she owns a home.

The complaint was first reported by The Post and Courier of Charleston.
It alleges abusive behavior, drug and alcohol addiction, and frequent
abandonment by the former "Saturday Night Live" star.

An attorney for Murray says the actor is deeply saddened by the breakup
and is committed to the best interests of the couple's four children.
