Wow, Cloris Leachman, at 82 is the oldest ever contestant on Dancing with the Stars! I remember her best from shows like Mary Tyler Moore! I took a peak at her filmography and she’s been active in films and television shows from the 1940′s right up until the present. In fact she’s in three post production movies due out in 2008 and 2009. Good for her!

I did that last night. I saw that there was a two hour Prison Break on and I knew the season premiere was coming up so I set my PVR to tape the show and wrote a post on one of my other blogs about how happy I was to see this show returning and how I was taping the season premiere. Oops! It wasn’t the premiere at all. It was a rerun of last seasons finale!

I’ve got egg on my face for that post! Oh well … maybe it will serve to remind people that there are a lot of our favorite shows set to return next week! Prison Breaks season premiere is on September 1st along with several other shows. It seems that many of our favorite shows are coming back early this season, perhaps because they have un-shown episodes due to last years writers strike.

I found a collection of news stories about this years Oscars!

It’s a true Oscars Roundup. Just select a video to watch or take your time and watch them all. Enjoy!

Remind you of anyone?

I think this wigged dog looks a bit like Mary Ann on Gilligan’s Island. Or maybe not. It was the first thing I thought of when I saw this photo though.

If you enjoy playing games where your knowledge of trivia matters you’ll love the Trivia Games website.

When you visit the site you’ll see that there are a number of Trivia topics ranging from Music, Entertainment, Sports and even jackpot games. The games are none stop so you can enjoy them 24/7 and even earn money while playing.

When you sign up as a member of Trivia Games you can play against other members in trivia tournaments, write trivia questions to stump your opponents and even create your own personal trivia page.

Also, when you sign up as a member you are given $5 absolutely free so that you can try the games and when you start playing for real you’ll get a 50% bonus. The real money games are not available in all US states. For example if you live in Arizona, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Iowa, Louisiana, Maryland, Montana, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, or Vermont you won’t be able to play the real money games. You will however be able to access the free games and they are plenty fun.

I signed up just to check it out and as a Canadian it looks like I have access to both the free and money games, I got a $2 bonus when I signed up and then another $3 when I confirmed my registration.

When you select a game to play – I chose Entertainment Trivia – a large screen comes up and you can choose from a variety Trivia games. Some are free, and the rest have a variety of entry fees ranging from 50 cents and up. Once you pick a game to play all you need to do is wait for it to start and then begin typing in your answers when a question pops up. It’s easy and fun.

The trivia questions are chosen randomly from the TriviaOnNet question banks by an automated game logic.

Other than joining in the Trivia games or playing in Trivia tournaments registered members of Trivia Games can create their own blog, create buddy lists, join discussion groups, invite friends, or add photos and video. There’s quite a community feel to Trivia Games.

In my short experience in using the site I found that Trivia Games worked well on my computer system (PC) and that the games were easy to join and fun to play.

So if you enjoy playing Trivia games go to the Trivia Games site and sign up. I’m sure you’ll have fun!

If you ever go to Vegas you must visit the TAO nightclub at the Venetian Hotel. It’s fabulous! It’s also huge!

I was in Vegas for a blogging convention and on Saturday night we had the Bl0ggers Choice awards at TAO from 6 to 9 pm. After the “blogger” party ended many of us stayed to enjoy the night club and try to spot the celebs that showed up for TAO’s second anniversary party. What a great night to have been at TAO.

When we arrived we were escorted to the second floor where we mingled with fellow bloggers and others involved in internet advertising. Ted was kind enough to offer us a free bar and the staff at TAO kept the drinks flowing as well as served us the most delicious finger foods. If you go to TAO you must try the shrimp and lobster won tons. They’re delicious! Of course the spring rolls, Kobe beef mini burgers, desserts and other finger foods were great too.

My husband and I had a great time talking with everyone that attended the award show. It was a lot of fun.

After 9 pm the drinks were no longer free, but that was ok! We stuck around for quite a while listening to the great music and watching the place fill up.

Since we were leaving Vegas the next day and I wasn’t feeling so well we ended up leaving at about 11 pm. Of course that was just when the stars were beginning to show up. I must be honest and say that I didn’t see any celebs. I had my camera with me and I really wanted to see who showed up at TAO but I had to leave.

After we exited the club we were amazed at the line up to get into TAO. I’d swear it was a quarter mile long! There were lots of paparazzi lining up outside the door too as they waited to catch a shot of the celebs showing up for TAOs 2nd anniversary party.

Word is that daily shows like Soaps and talk shows will be hit the hardest. Letterman and and Jay Leno are going into reruns as of today. Other shows will likely follow suit.

Apparently shows like Gray’s Anatomy and The Office stockpiled scripts in anticipation of this strike so they should continue to have material to work with through till January, but other shows where the actors are also writers such as 30 Rock may not fair so well. 24 and Lost may not start when they are supposed to and have a shorter season when they do start.

The last Writers Guild Strike in 1988 lasted 22 weeks! If this one lasts even half that long you’d better get used to Reality TV because that might be the only thing on!

How do you feel about the Writers strike?
