Kelsey Grammer Bolts From TV Interview Over Ex
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Prime Time, Talk Shows, Gossip, Internet,
Kelsey Grammer "ran out" on an interview after seeing a picture of his former wife. The former Frasier star was due to be interviewed by Piers Morgan for CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight but became so uncomfortable after seeing a photograph of his ex Camille Grammer that he left the building before filming began.
"Kelsey Grammer was supposed to be on my show now but ran out of the building. Strange. #CNN So, Kelsey Grammer saw a photo of his ex wife Camille in the open to our show and legged it. Extraordinary. Never had this happen before. I had a very friendly chat with Kelsey backstage, He said he was really looking forward to the interview. Weird. #CNN (sic)," Piers wrote on Twitter.
When Piers' former America's Got Talent co-star Simon Cowell responded by saying "I know how he feels," Piers joked it was possible Simon's new show The X Factor which scared him off. "I suspect Kelsey was watching X Factor in the green room and suddenly felt nauseous," he wrote.

FOX Picks Up ‘Back To You’
Posted by David Onda Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC, FOX, Editorial, News, Ratings, Renewals,
Sometimes network executives boggle the mind with the shows they decide to pick up or, adversely, kick to the curb. One such moment is FOX’s decision to pick up the horribly hacky news anchor comedy, Back To You, for a full 24-episode season. Are you kidding me? Ok, I like Kelsey Grammer, I really do - and I think he has a lot of dry comedy potential. But Patricia Heaton? Uck! There is nothing about Heaton that would make me subject myself to a half hour of listening to her voice set up hacky jokes that are only validated by some crappy laugh-track. And with the not-off-the-charts ratings the show has gotten, I’d guess that I’m not alone. How a great show like HBO’s Lucky Louie gets dumped while this show is allowed to stay on the air is beyond me.
Oh yeah, and ABC picked up six more scripts for Samantha Who?. More like, “Samantha Who gives a crap?”
