The More You Know
News nuggets to get you through your mid-morning slump.
- Just like Navy: NCIS and CSI: Miami, apparently someone is watching The Bachelor. The omnipresent reality show will be returning for its ninth season, this time set in Rome. The bachelor in question is a Bronson Pinchot-looking mofo who is apparently also a real life prince, albeit a convoluded, half-assed royal.
- The reality show no one asked for is on its way and it promises to be a bigger train wreck than anyone anticipated. Rob and Amber, runner-up and winner of Survivor: All-Stars, will put their fledgling marriage before the cameras as (get this) the couple move to Las Vegas so Rob can try his hand at professional gambling. And so he can gamble away her millions.
- What the heck is going on with that guy on Project Runway's neck, anyway? Apparently it's kind of sweet. Well, mostly crazy, but a little sprinkling of sweet too. For those who couldn't see it up close, season 3 designer Jeffrey Sebelia has the name of his son, Harrison Detroit, on his neck. Below it, in latin, is the phrase "the love of my life."
- Speaking of the Runway, have you heard the scandal about Keith? Apparently, he's been accused of plagiarizing sketches in his portfolio. The portfolio he used to get on the show. See the sketches here.
- ABC is making lots of promises after screwing up two of its big hits. Creative control of Desperate Housewives will be going back to creator Marc Cherry after a widely criticized second season. And Lost won't be tugging at the heartstrings of its viewers by surprising us with reruns all the time. This next season, it will have six episodes in a row in the fall, take a break and then return to continue out the season repeat-free.
- Kirsten Dunst is dating Andy Samberg from SNL. Hon, you may as well join a convent because no one's going to match up to Jake.
