VIDEO: Adam Lambert Brings Controversy to American Music Awards
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Music, Prime Time, ABC, Gossip, News, Video
I’m guessing this wasn’t the kind of “entertainment” ABC was hoping to see from Adam Lambert.
At tonight’s American Music Awards, the American Idol finalist raised eyebrows higher than his own hairstyle. During an S&M-laced performance of “For Your Entertainment,” Lambert leads a male dancer around the stage with a leash, simulates oral sex and then later kisses a male keyboardist—all on live TV. (Just in case you hadn’t already heard—he’s gay.)
Although it’s unclear which portions ABC was prepared for, E!‘s Marc Malkin said the kiss was not the cards. “Very good source tells me that ABC and producers did NOT know adam lambert was going to makout w/keyboardist…” Malkin tweeted.

Scrubs Returns to ABC in December
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC, Scrubs, News
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe there’s a difference between “midseason” and “in the middle of the holiday season.”
Although ABC surprised many followers when they renewed Scrubs for a ninth season, the network did something not so surprising to the show: They buried it.
Instead of waiting until after the holiday craziness died down, ABC chose to bring back the comedy during the height of the shopping season. Now the program - which will shift focus from the hospital to the classroom - will have a one-hour debut on December 1.

DWTS’ Lacey Schwimmer Out with Flu
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, News
Another week calls for another substitution.
Although Season 8 of Dancing with the Stars was riddled with celebrity injuries, Season 9 has been hit on the professional side. Two weeks ago, Derek Hough was temporarily replaced by Maksim Chmerkovskiy when he was hit with the flu. Now, Lacey Schwimmer is using up one of her sick days.
On tonight’s broadcast, Anna Trebunskaya will play the part of Mark Dacascos’ partner. Anna originally stepped in this weekend to help the Iron Chef America star rehearse, but her role later increased when Schwimmer’s condition worsened. Unfortunately, this last-minute shuffling only gave the pair two days to learn two dances (the samba and a group paso doble.)
So how is Lacey feeling right now? Well - according to a tweet from earlier today, not great. “Guys I’m super sad to be sick today. Ugh,” she wrote.

Lisa Kudrow Joins Courteney Cox on Cougar Town
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC, Gossip, Video
Jennifer Aniston has already returned to TV to kiss Courteney Cox, so now it’s Lisa Kudrow’s turn to get her hands dirty. The former Friends star will soon reunite with her former cast member on an episode of Cougar Town.
Although the two haven’t worked together on-screen since parting ways in 2004, the ladies have appeared together off-screen. Just last month, Kudrow and Cox attended a charity function for Feeding America. During that event, Lisa was encouraged to do a special performance of “Smelly Cat.” (You can see the video above.)
Lisa, who played a masseuse on the NBC comedy, will once again work with skin during her ABC guest stint. She’ll now star as a mean - but highly-effective - dermatologist Jules “can’t stop going to.”
Look for Kudrow sometime in early 2010.

Sneak Peek: An 8-Minute Glimpse of V
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, Video
Where were you when JFK was assassinated? Where were you on 9/11?
Those two questions lead us into this extended preview of V, ABC’s reimagining of the classic miniseries. In this 8-minute clip from the show’s pilot, we see Americans going through the motions on what they think is just an average day. (Isn’t that exactly how FlashForward started?) Of course, that large pretty woman in the sky - who isn’t attached to a billboard - soon changes everything.
So the question now is: Do you know where you’ll be when V debuts? The new sci-fi drama will have a brief 4-week run starting November 3 then return sometime after the Olympics.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, News, Video
UPDATE: In an interview with CNN, Falcon Heene apparently claims to have pulled the stunt for a show.
UPDATE: Falcon Heene has been found safe. He had been hiding in an attic at his family’s home.
The missing child at the center of today’s wild balloon drama was no stranger to reality television.
Over the past year, 6-year-old Falcon Heene and his family have been the subject of two episodes of Wife Swap. The Colorado-based storm chasers first appeared on the show on October 3, 2008 and were then chosen as fan favorites for the program’s 100th episode on March 13, 2009. The Heene boys were also featured in a number of YouTube videos. (You can view one of those after the jump.)

Dancing with the Stars to Honor Patrick Swayze
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars
Next week’s three-day premiere of Dancing with the Stars will include a tribute to one of their early contributors. On Wednesday, the program will take time out to honor Dirty Dancing star Patrick Swayze.
Back in 2005, the actor/dancer made a brief appearance on the freshman series as a coach for John O’Hurley. He also sat in the audience during the Season 1 finale to support his friend.
“He was one of the few people to integrate dance with being an A-list actor,” executive producer Conrad Green said. “He inspired many people and many of our pros to dance. We want to honor the great moments he’s brought to film by getting our dancers to do their interpretation to some music from his films.”
DWTS’ ninth season begins Monday, September 21 @ 8:00.

New Sprint Commercials Play Out Like a Miniseries
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, ABC, Commercials, Desperate Housewives, Gossip
“They’re kind of like the old Taster’s Choice commercials,” explained Marc Cherry, creator of ABC’s Desperate Housewives. “We added a lot of wicked dark humor, murder and adultery and betrayal.”
The commercials are Sprint spots which were shot on the Housewives set and written by the show’s writers. Rebecca Staab and David Chisum will be part of a “murderous love triangle” in the spots, the first of which will premiere September 27.

Charles Gibson Leaving World News Tonight
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: News
Just over three years after taking over the desk at World News Tonight, anchor Charles Gibson has decided to retire from full-time employment. The official announcement came today after several weeks of discussions with ABC News President David Westin.
Charles, who has been with the network for over three decades, found himself in our homes every night in May 2006 following Peter Jennings’ death, Bob Woodruff’s injury and Elizabeth Vargas’ pregnancy. The unexpected post delayed what would have originally been a 2007 leave.
Prior to his evening news gig, Gibson had worked on both Good Morning America and Primetime Thursday.

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Prime Time, ABC, Desperate Housewives, Spoilers
The ladies of Wisteria Lane are back for season six of Desperate Housewives, channeling women of the Amazon in their latest promotional ads.
Could the weapons they each brandish offer a clue of what’s to come in this season? Bree holds up a dagger; Gabrielle majestically looks down upon her sword; Susan carries the only defensive armament, a shield; Katherine possesses the brutal ball and chain; and Lynette has her grip on a bow and arrow.
Then there’s the other promotional image, offering more familiar fare with a twist…
