Sorry for any inconvenience the venue change and cancellation/relaunching has caused. We’re definitely looking forward to seeing everyone there. Hopefully you can drop by.

For the second year in a row, CBS has drawn the ire of GLAAD for having exactly zero LGBT characters on any of their shows. Suffering from embarrassment, The Eye network is adding three queer characters to three of their high-profile shows for the upcoming 2010-2011 season. Hopefully this course of action will please the TV watchdogs over at GLAAD.

“I’m very disappointed in our track record so far,” said CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler. “We know and we will do better.”

The very talented Julianna Marguiles will receive a gay brother on The Good Wife, while the highly-anticipated William Shatner vehicle, S#*! My Dad Says, also gets a visit from the gay stork. Don’t worry my lesbian sisters, you’ll get representation as well on David Spade’s comedy Rules of Engagement.

Before catching the premiere of Jersey Shore’s second season tonight on MTV, why not relive all the magic of the first season on DVD. MTV has compiled Jersey Shore’s wicked first season and jam-packed it with a whole whackload of never-before-seen extras all in one convenient DVD set. If you’re a hardcore fan of the show, this balls-out look at the phenomenon is a must-have.

Not only does the 3-disc-set have all nine episodes that aired on MTV, but this time they’re all uncensored. What does that mean? You get to watch Snooki’s infamous bar beatdown that MTV never aired. Wait, it only gets better. If it pleases you, an option to watch the episode with commentary from Snooki and The Situation is available. It’s pretty frickin’ hilarious to hear the Jersey crew mock the douchebag who sucker-punched Snookers.

It’s not the Lady Gaga and Meryl Streep collaboration people were hoping for, but it’ll do. That’s all (in Miranda Priestly voice). Academy-winning star, Meryl Streep, and 30 Rock funny lady, Tina Fey, will play a mother-daughter duo in an upcoming comedy, Mommy & Me. The film will be directed by Stanley Tucci.

This marks the third time in recent years that Tucci and Streep will be working together. The two starred in The Devil Wears Prada and Julia & Julia. Not much is known about the plotline of Mommy & Me, but it will spotlight the thorny and funny sides of mother-daughter relationships. Ouch. Is Meryl old enough to play Tina’s mom?

I’d watch anything with Streep, but throw in Tina Fey to the mix, someone better save me a seat on opening day. While Streep has been a movie star for years, Fey is slowly building her film resume during 30 Rock’s summer hiatuses. Her most recent outing, Date Night with Steve Carell grossed nearly $100 million domestically. If Mommy & Me is remotely entertaining, it could easily surpass that total and become Fey’s biggest box office hit.

What do you think of this pairing? Match made in heaven or the second coming of Death Becomes Her (Streep & Goldie Hawn)?

In preparation for tonight’s Project Runway season eight premiere, I thought I’d reminisce about some of my favorite PR designers who were auf wiedersehen’d way before their time. Without fail, there’s at least a couple of talented designers cut in favor of less talented designers due to them being reality TV gold. I love good TV and drama so I appreciate why this is done but at the same time I would’ve loved to see the following designers’ creations in future challenges.

10. Daniel Franco – Season 2

Outlasted By: Zulema Griffin & Guadalupe Vidal
Poor Daniel Franco. At least he can take solace with the fact he’ll always be a trivial pursuit answer for being the first designer ever eliminated on Project Runway. I have to give Mr. Franco credit for trying out again for Season Two to prove his designing skills. In his second attempt, I felt he found his stride and was poised to go far-not win but far. Unfortunately for him lingerie was his undoing. Though his collection was Dynasty-80s cheese, it was at least wearable compared to Santino’s deer-gingerbread-house inspired outfits. They were heinous. But as the leader of his group, Franco owned up to his shortcomings and took the fall and was eliminated.

Mrs. Chris Martin is taking another stab in her husband’s line of work, but this time she’s going country. For her upcoming movie, Gwyneth Paltrow is playing an alcoholic country singer (Kelly Canter) who’s recently out of rehab looking to jumpstart her career. Country Strong was shot in Nashville and co-stars Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester and Tim McGraw.

This is the first time Paltrow has sung for a movie since the release of 2000’s Duets. Then, she sang two songs, one of which was a duet on Cruisin‘ with Huey Lewis. Gwyneth provides the vocals for “Country Strong” which was released to country radio on Monday July 28. Not sure how the movie will do, but the single and soundtrack released by RCA Records will most probably hit the No. 1 spot on the country music charts.

Glee just got a little gayer. Openly gay Broadway singer Cheyenne Jackson has signed on to appear in the second season of the Fox hit show, Glee. Jackson will play rival Vocal Adrenaline’s new coach. His character fills the vacancy left by Shelby Corcoran (Idina Menzel), who left the world of competitive glee clubs to raise Quinn and Puck’s baby during the season finale.

You might recognize the 35-year-old from his most recent role of Danny Baker on last season’s 30 Rock, but is better known for his roles on Broadway. Once dubbed the sexiest man on Broadway, Cheyenne appeared in musicals such as Xanadu and Finian’s Rainbow.. In addition to appearing on Glee’s second season, he’s also set to appear in a large recurring role on Curb Your Enthusiasm next season and continue his role on 30 Rock.

“You just sank my battleship.” I wonder if Rihanna will get to utter those iconic words in the movie adaptation of the classic board game, Battleship. According to Variety, Rihanna has signed on to appear in the movie. This will mark her acting debut.

Ri-Ri joins True Blood’s Alexander Skarsgard, and Friday Night Light’s Taylor Kitsch in the Peter Berg directed action flick. Not sure how they’ll create an engaging story from a 80s board game. Will Skarsgard and Rihanna be reciting B5, C9, A2 combinations to each other as they try to sink each fleet of carriers and battleships? One thing is certain, this is one good looking cast.

Jersey Shore’s second season hasn’t even aired yet, but that hasn’t stopped MTV from shaking it up for Season Three. There’s a new guidette in town and her name is Deena Nicole Cortese. She’s the first non-original cast to join the series. Producers added Cortese to replace the twice booted Angelina Pivarnick.

To the surprise of many, MTV invited Angelina back for Season Two despite barely making an impression during the first season. All I remember about her, was her “designer luggage” *cough* Hefty garbage bags. It must suck to be Angelina. First she leaves the Seaside Heights house on her own accord in Season One, and misses out the groundswell of media and attention of the Shore phenomenon, then is invited for Season Two only to be fired because she was so boring and unlikable.

So what do we know about the new girl occupying Angelina’s vacant bed? The 23-year-old former cheerleader already being called the “Bad Ass Brunette” looks like a Snooki clone. Deena’s got big boobs, tiny in stature, has long dark hair and occasionally sports the “poof”. According to a few sources, the two are BFFs and it was actually Snooki who got Deena on the show.
