Howard Stern hired by NBC as new judge on “America’s Got Talent”
Dec 15th
And now I have a reason to watch “America’s Got Talent”
ZACHISGOD’s God, Mr. Howard Stern, has been hired by NBC as the new judge of the popular summer talent show.
The details of the contract have not been released (And they never will be), but we do know that the show is moving production to New York City. That is one condition that was extremely important to Howard, due to the fact that he hates flying and loves his house in the Hampton’s.
This is a fantastic decision by NBC. You won’t get a more honest and fair judge in the world. The ratings are going to be huge!!
Get ready America, Howard is coming!!
Praise be to our Lord and Savior, Howard Stern.
HOWARD IS GOD

Have you ever wondered who your favorite ESPN personalities are sponsored by? Now you can know.
Apr 19th
After being pressured from our friends over at Deadspin, ESPN has released a list of who their commentators are sponsored by.
The release states, “As part of ESPN’s transparency efforts and guidelines for commentators and endorsement relationships, following is a list of relevant, approved endorsements. This information will be updated as warranted.”
My favorite on the list is Michele Smith, who is proudly sponsored by JUGS Pitching Machines. Who actually names a softball pitching machine JUGS? Seriously?
The list is pretty interesting,

Did Alf just say the “N” word? I think he did.
Dec 21st
I loved Alf when I was a kid. I even had an Alf doll (which was awesome!). But one thing I didn’t know was that Alf had turrets. Apparently this was a little known fact, but as you can see from this video Alf had a bad case of it. And it wasn’t just the four letter words that the wise cracking alien liked to spew during his turrets fueled rants, he also had the tendency to throw the “N” word out there. This isn’t the Alf I knew and loved.
IBM super computer Vs. super humans on Jeopardy!
Dec 14th
On February 14-16 the popular game show “Jeopardy!’ will pit IBM’s super computer Watson Vs. intellectual masterminds Ken Jennings (longest winning streak) and Brad Rutter (most money earned). This will go down as one of the most important battles in the war between Man and Machine. Will Ken Jennings, with his ridiculous amount of knowledge and quick trigger skills, be able to thwart the mighty Watson? You will have to tune in to see. Check your local listings for channel and time (7pm, ABC7 in the NYC metro area).

Canada’s new “Jersey Shore” ripoff, “Lake Shore”
Nov 10th
Here we go again. Now Canada is jumping on the “Jersey Shore” bandwagon, with their new ripoff show “Lake Shore”. Instead of one ethnic stereotype to laugh at, this time we have 8!! The TV production company behind this new show pretty much set up their own little UN in Toronto, with a Turk, an Italian, a Vietnamese, a Czech, a Jew, a Lebanese, a Pole, and an Albanian.
Oh boy, this should be fun.
No surprise here. “The Walking Dead” picked up for season 2
Nov 9th
After pulling in 4.7 million viewers in week 2, “The Walking Dead” has been picked up by AMC for a 13 episode second season. This should come as no surprise considering the show has had a record amount of viewers in the 18-49 age demographic; advertisers most sought after. If you aren’t watching yet make sure you catch up now. This show will be on for years to come.
Why aren’t people watching these reality shows?
Nov 4th
MSNBC.com has put together a list of the best reality TV shows that you aren’t watching. The new reality show “Circus” on PBS looks really interesting. They followed around the Big Apple Circus and focused on the entertainers and their lives. It premieres Nov. 11 on PBS, so that’s probably why we aren’t watching it yet. I’m definitely going to check it out.
"Circus" on PBS, Premieres Nov. 11th
