On Gear Live: Samsung S95C: The OLED TV You Can’t Afford (to Ignore!)

Regular watchers of The Soup are aware of the comedic material Ann Curry has provided .  Ever since she repeated the phrase ‘Good Morning’ a gazillion times in one breath, the Today show co-host has become a fixture of the E! show.  (If you haven’t seen that classic clip, you can watch it after the jump.)

Unfortunately, Curry made another a slip-up this morning that probably won’t get her off McHale’s mind anytime soon.  Maybe she’s been secretly hoping for Katie Couric’s return to NBC?

Although it’s been a while since we’ve seen Robin Sparkles on American television (she was discovered back in November 2006), fans won’t have to wait much longer.

Come April 21, ‘s favorite Canadian pop star (a.k.a. Robin’s early years) will be showing us a much softer side.  Here’s a preview of her Debbie Gibson-esque ballad “Sandcastles in the Sand.”  (Check out the other ‘80s icons in the clip.)


If you haven’t had the chance to experience Robin’s breakout hit, “Let’s Go to the Mall”, you can see that video after the jump.  Those wanting even more Sparkle can also learn about the acid wash loving singer through her MySpace page.

Question:  Does repeating the same two words over and over again qualify as a cameo?

I never thought I would hear myself say this, but Paris Hilton’s appearance on My Name is Earl last night made Britney Spears look like an Emmy-worthy actress.


Apparently it’s not possible - even for comatose patients - to envision a better acting performance from Paris.  (BTW - I’m referring to the speaking kind.)

If you didn’t catch last night’s episode of , you missed a very uncomfortable scene with guest star (Superbad) and Andy Samberg’s ‘father’.

This clip definitely rivals anything we’ve seen between Jimmy Kimmel and Ben Affleck.

In case you didn’t catch this past weekend, here was the best part of what was yet another unevenly funny program.

In addition to Amy Poehler’s imitation of Project Runway winner , we get cameos from ‘Tim Gunn’ and ‘Heidi Klum’.

(UPDATE:  Real-life Christian apparently enjoyed the skit as well.)

On today’s episode of The View, host took time out to talk about her friend Patrick Swayze.  (It was recently announced that the Ghost star was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.)

She revealed that her memorable role in the weeper was primarily due to her former co-star’s influence.  Had Swayze not influenced director Jerry Zucker to cast Goldberg, she would not have received her 1991 win for Best Supporting Actress.

We all knew someone from would eventually have their trash uncovered….but four different contestants?

Last week, Amanda Overmyer’s brush with the law was revealed.  This week, we have a foul-mouthed boy, a former male stripper and a girl who likes to take semi-racy photos with her friends.

First up - .  I’ve hated the pouty mouth singer from Day One.  (His attitude overrides any shred of talent he might have.)  Now there’s this video that has surfaced on MySpace.  It may have been intended as a joke, but I fail to see the humor in it.  (I do like making fun of him though.)

Talk show host spoke very passionately today about a topic very close to her heart.  (Thankfully, it had nothing to do with dogs.)  The issue? Homosexuality.

Ellen felt the need to speak up after a 15-year-old boy was recently murdered for being openly gay.  You can see her emotional plea below:

UnhitchedThey say you really shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover.  But you know, in some cases, that time-saving strategy can really tell you a lot.

Case in point:  FOX’s new comedy .  The show (debuting this weekend) almost lured me in with names like Rashida Jones, Craig Bierko and the Farrelly brothers.  But then I saw some teasers.  And now I’m convinced a few seconds has revealed quite enough.  (You can view those clips, after the jump.)

I knew a show that had Bobby and Peter Farrelly (There’s Something About Mary) on board as executive producers could possibly be over the top, but I thought at the very minimum the ‘comedy’ would be funny.  It isn’t.  Both the writing and production feel cheap and Bierko - who I’ve loved in other projects - sticks out like an overacting sore thumb.  Thankfully, (The Office) comes off well in the straight girl role.

Those who do find the following snippets amusing can watch their first full episode this Sunday @ 9:30 on FOX.

Amanda Overmyer

If you picked Amanda Overmyer to be the first American Idoler with an exposed past - it’s time to cash up.

The National Enquirer has gone to the trouble of unearthing the singer’s checkered history with a lead foot.  The Mulberry, Indiana native had already racked up a string of speeding violations prior to a DUI arrest back in October 2006.  (She once hit 100 in a 45 mph zone.)  The alcohol-related incident earned her a .108 breathalyzer score and six-hour stay in an Indiana jail.  After pleading guilty, TMZ reports the singer received a suspended sentence has since completed her probation.

Making matters worse?  The Enquirer also claims there are nude photos of her out there currently being shopped around.  Awesome!  If you were to add those two items to the 23-year-old’s criminal rendition of “Carry On My Wayward Son” last night, you could say she’s already hit the trifecta.  (You can see that performance after the jump.)

The producers have yet to issue a comment.  (I think they’re hoping the viewers will do them the favor of eliminating her first.)
