It's obvious who the idiots in charge are going to choose to replace the lengendary ATWT.

YAAAAAY! One step closer to Pyramid, bitches!

Bye bye Oakdale! Hello, "Here is your first subject...GO!"

[Soapsuds]

Ummm...NO! Think again! Think ...Mrs. Moonveis.....

If they went to the trouble of trying to get a show with Valerie Bertinelli, of all people, they must really want a talk show. So I think BAM Lagasse or Julie Chen might have an edge over a game show.

[All My Shadows]

If this was a Mackenzie Phillips-hosted talk show, then I'd be ALL OVER it like...well...like crack.

Unfortunately, Mackenzie's busy prepping her new game show, "Are You Smarter Than Your Dealer?".

[DRW50]

Tatum beat her to the punch on that one. Now they're both vying over a new project..."Ew! That's Your Father!"

[Khan]

Now, there's an idea: get Tatum O'Neal and Mackenzie Phillips to co-host a reality series where they sneak up on unsuspecting alcoholics and drug addicts and convince them to go straight (that is, when they're not raiding their stash).

Add Courtney Love in there, and I'm game...

[Khan]

But seriously, am I the only one who's a bit "over" Valerie Bertinelli? I mean, I'm glad that she's lost the weight, that (for once!) she's in a series that doesn't suck or is named "One Day at a Time", and that she's found love again with whatshisname. But, let's not overdo it, know what I mean? This isn't 1980 anymore; nowadays, the saturation point for one's presence in the public eye is much, much lower.

[SFK]

Totally, I think Hot in Cleveland is great for her, a talk show is pushing it... is she even talk show host material? I guess we'll never know. I have a feeling this is for the best though, because I have a sinking suspicion that she's one of those people I like perfectly well right now but that could all change when given a daily talk format. Kinda like what happened with me and Whoopi.

[bellcurve]

Lagasse's project is actually a gameshow.

HEY!

[alphanguy74]

What dissolutioned you about Whoopi? Was she diffeent thatn you'd imagine, do you not agree with her poitics? I can tell you that once Rosie was on the View, I totally stopped liking her. And I certainly don't get Ellen's appeal. I bet they nixed Valerie because Mrs. Moonves wants the show... I agree with Ruxton, you just watch. And i'm sorry, Bellcurve, but if a final format of Pyramid is anything like that new pilot, i'd just rather they DIDN'T. However, if I was running the Network, I would have ordered a 30 minute Pyramid just like the New York pilot, and cut ATWT down to 30 minutes. But that would make too much sense!
