‘America’s Got Talent’ and ‘Last Comic Standing’ Renewed
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Comedy, Music, Prime Time, Reality, NBC, Renewals,
I finally caught America’s Got Talent for the first time, and only because an area a cappella group, The Fault Line, managed to land in the semi-finals. Yep, I thought I should watch and give my support—after all, I did see them perform in the food court of the local mall. Imagine if they won… I’d be, like, famous by association or proximity… or… oh, wait. They didn’t make it to the finals, so now my hopes of semi-fame are up in smoke. And do I continue to watch the show? Nope. The Hoff is creepy and Sharon Osbourne is nothing without her incoherent husband and annoying kids by her side. Fear not though, the talent competition has been renewed for next summer, thus making producer Simon Cowell just that much richer. Also joining the summer renewals is Last Comic Standing, which had me tuning in hit-or-miss the first few seasons and then lost me entirely this season. According to Craig Plestis, NBC’s executive vice president of alternative programming, “Both of these innovative series have proven to be summer staples and important franchises for NBC. We have the most-watched show in America’s Got Talent and one of the most upscale series in Last Comic Standing, and now viewers can look forward to seeing these popular brand series with fresh new shows again next summer.” America’s Got Talent airs live on August 21; Last Last Comic Standing will air the season finale live on September 19.

Idol Judge Misjudges Footing

American Idol’s dewy-eyed judge, morale coach, and former songstress can add at least one more credential to her resume: accident survivor. Paula Abdul discovered just how dangerous house pets can be this week, even when enjoying a relaxing day at home. Abdul was walking around her pad and trying to avoid stepping on Tulip, her pet Chihuahua, when she fell (apparently, on her face). The most inane Idol judge of them all suffered a broken nose from the incident, but reports say she is recovering nicely. The nose shouldn’t be enough to keep Paula away from her sideline position by the Idol stage this week, however. Paula, along with Simon and Randy, will judge the final performances by the two remaining American Idol competitors, then watch as only one is crowned the sixth American Idol of the land. Everything should be fine as long as there are no tiny dogs in sight…or, underfoot.
