I Am A TV Junkie

Video -- Tony Awards DVR Cutoff Video: Chris Rock Presents Best Musical

I wasn't like I didn't know The Book of Mormon was going to win ... I just wanted to see it. In case you did, too, but your DVR cut the show off, here it is.

Great show. Outstanding ratings, too. Neil Patrick Harris, you have risen to the rank of national treasure. Enjoy that in between the kids' feedings and that promo tour for The Smurfs.

Trey Parker's black sequined blouse? Faaaaaaaabulous.

Neil's spoken word ending for the night's festivities, also cut off by my DVR, is in a clip after the jump.

Carrie (Keegan) is Baa-aack, and She's Got Chris Rock

This new episode of Up Close with Carrie Keegan releases here on YouTube just in time for the DVD release of I Think I Love My Wife, and Carrie and Chris talk about panties, Kerry Washington and Gina Torres talk about the lesbian love scene that got left on the cutting room floor, and everyone says F&$k right at the end, just for you.

And I'll say it again, you can watch the sam old junket interviews, I'd much rather see what Carrie can get out of the stars with the combination of her charm and her nasty mouth.

The movie drops on August 7, the same week Homer turns 9.

Homer isn't registered anywhere, but I'm checking to see if Petsmart.com has a wish list function.

Chris Rock Will Finally Appear on Everybody Hates Chris

I gotta tell you, if I was CW chief Dawn Ostroff, I would have had Rock playing something on the show (even if it was with Eddie Murphy-style prosthetics) once every sweeps period since she got the show from UPN.

ABC managed to get Salma Hayek to guest on Ugly Betty in the first season. This is the third season for EHC.

From Broadcasting & Cable:

Aliens, a single-camera show about a Pakistani exchange student and his U.S. host family, joins the Monday night comedy block at 8:30 p.m. after Everybody Hates Chris (which itself should get a boost for its season premiere-show creator Chris Rock guests for the first time ever as the guidance counselor).

The show Aliens in America, mentioned as the leadout from Chris next season is a half hour comedy about a Pakistani exchange student and his host family. It joins the other CW comedies on Monday, and I know nothing about them because I watch CBS comedies and then Heroes.

There's more on the Fall sked for The CW at the link above, including word that the South African project has a name now, called Life is Wild.

Beauty and the Geek is on Tuesdays in the Fall, and I couldn't care less about the rest of it. That includes you, Tyra, except it would be good if you, Tyra would get off your ass and make sure Top Model has a union shop by next season.

And if not, there will be more pounding the pavement, I'm sure.

Plus, folks, we just might have an industry-wide writers' strike by the time Fall comes around, so fill those DVRs just in case.

If you click on that little graphic just above this, you can see the entire CW Fall 2007 schedule. Remember they are dark on Saturday nights.

And if you see anything there you want me to look into, leave a note in the comments.
