"The Revolution should not be televised! :mad: "

Mario has a restaurant not far from me but I've never actually seen him in person or on TV. Does he have a pleasant personality? I ask because the personality of his partner Joe Bastianich ("the mean judge" on FOX's Master Chef, PBS chef Lidia's son) leaves a lot to be desired.

Oh, SFK. Go watch my video rant. I'm so Sugarbaker there. :D

Well. The character of Erica Kane has had as many sausages in her as Mario has around his neck. So, I guess it all comes full circle. *kidding, kidding*

LOL! (I actually thought the sausages as scarf was kinda clever. :ph34r: )

Wait, define partner?

I read Heat, a really good book about a writer who works with various chefs to learn the industry. Anyway Mario came off as nice as far as most chefs go, but hard driven (except at the end of the day when he expects you to get blindly drunk with him and eat till you vomit--apparently this was nearly every night--and still show up on time).

Here I think Frons knows his audience. Every single person who watches The Talk is a Frons victim. Every single person who watches screeching Rachel Ray is a Frons Victim. Every person who is actually interested in what Kathie Lee has to say at 10 am..this is who Frons covets. He knows his audience. The viewing public should be ashamed of itself because its not like it watches this dreck an hour a day as a short diversion, it watches it hour after hour on channel after channel morning, noon and night.

Yes but not a lot of people watch these shows, do they?

LOL, business partner. :P

Wow, that is hilarious. A part of me wants to say, "Sounds like my kind of boss! :) ", but that sounds a little scary actually. :unsure: " :lol: Ah-hahaha! Isn't this is great, aren't we having a blast? :D WAIT! :mad: You're not going anywhere until the puke hits the porcelain!" *sheepishly sips awful veal-infused gin and Limoncello Bloody Mary Mario's concocted*

I just found this on DListed

In the dramatization above, the role of me is played by Erica Kane and the role of ABC is played by Annie. This best expresses my feelings about ABC putting two of my former babysitters in a casket and burying them forever. ABC made me wail out a sad tail of NOOOOOOOs by officially killing two classic soap opera masterpieces. They are murdering MAH STORIES!!!!!

The press release from ABC is below. It hurts even more that they are replacing these beloved pieces of my childhood with a foodies talk show called The Chew and a makeover talk show called The Revolution! We all know why I weep today.

“While we are excited about our new shows and the shift in our business, I can’t help but recognize how bittersweet the change is. We are taking this bold step to expand our business because viewers are looking for different types of programming these days. They are telling us there is room for informative, authentic and fun shows that are relatable, offer a wide variety of opinions and focus on ‘real life’ takeaways.

All My Children and One Life to Live are iconic pieces of television that have made an indelible mark on our culture’s history. Each of the shows has touched millions and millions of viewers and informed the social consciousness. It has been a privilege to work with the extraordinary teams who brought the residents of Pine Valley and Llanview to life each day, and we thank the cast, crew, producers and most especially the fans for their commitment to the shows through their history.”

All My Children will be put to sleep on September after 41 years on air. One Life to Live will have no more lives to live in January 2012 after 43 years on air. The slut I care about the least, General Hospital, will stay on air.

This is truly is a sad covered in a sad covered in another sad. Erica Kane, Tina Lord Buchanan, Asian Blair Cramer and Dorian Lord are like second, third, fourth and fifth role model mothers to me. WHY???????!

"The slut I care about the least, General Hospital, will stay on air." OMG, I died after that line :lol: Oh and the role of me being played by Erica Kane and ABC by Annie. Perfect

I wonder if The View ladies on hot topics tomorrow will muse about this, or if the network will tell them to just pretend it has not happened.....

Babs is not into soaps (she is a major snob about such things) Whoopie could care less, and sadly the only one who watches soaps is that nimrod Sherri. If she is told not to bring it up, she won't. If it is brought up, Sherri will be the only one with comments. Sadly. My guess is that it WILL be brought up.
