Desperate Housewives No Longer Desperate

According to Deadline.com, Desperate Housewives will end its run in May 2012 after 8 seasons.

This is a shocking revelation to Eva Longoria, Terri Hatcher, Felicity Huffman and Marcia Cross who's contracts were heavily negotiated for 9 seasons until 2013. By this being one of ABC's top rated shows, one has to wonder what the hell is going on. Since 2006 and through 2010 internationally, Housewives is the most-watched comedy series averaging 51.6 million viewers across 68 territories. It is also the third-highest money earning show for 2010, with $2.74 million per half hour.

Great, now what "non-stop ridiculous scenarios that take place on one block" are we going to tune into now? Seriously, this show goes great with Ben & Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie ice cream!

Rant and roast is still in shock and awe that "The Bachelorette" is still apart of television programming. First of all, this fake fest which had Ashley Hebert get to know 25 men in hopes of choosing her life mate is a crock of foolery. It's always about them, "following their heart to find true love." I guess them following the lights, camera and money is not as appealing to say.

Also why is it that on "The Bachelor," the dude asks for the chick's hand in marriage and on "The Bachelorette," the dude asks for the chick's hand in marriage? Shouldn't the chick do the honors? For this show to reap the benefits of what reality TV has become and in this case untraditional, which is unfortunately being able to view these romantic hot messes on TV rather than those being private moments, shouldn't the whole traditional way of doing things be out the window?

So anyway to recap, two dudes asked for Hebert's hand in TV matrimony, Ben Flajnik and J.P. Rosenbaum. She went with Rosenbaum who said in his proposal, "All the time we've spent together, it's been the happiest time of my life. And you always say to me you're smiling all the time, you're going to have wrinkles when you're older. Well, I smile because of you. You bring that out. What I do know for absolute certain is that I am madly in love with you. I love everything about you." The two then kissed and Hebert says, "Today is the reason why I went through all the good times and the bad times, and I've been wanting to tell you how much I loved you for so long now. You mean the world to me and I do not want to be with anyone else forever." To which Rosenbaum replied, "I'm so in love with you. You're the one. You're it."

You know they already broke up right?

Modern Family Possibly Seeks A New Face

According to Entertainment Weekly (EW), ABC's Modern Family is thinking about doing a re-cast of the Asian baby named, Lily, who plays the daughter of Cameron and Mitchell. Lily is played by twins, Ella and Jaden Hiller, who executive producer Steve Levitan feels want to be kids at home playing, rather than on the set of a television show being bored out of their wits. For those that watch the show (we do and we like) Baby Lily is quiet and at some point, they want Baby Lily to laugh. The twins have not been let go yet, but the show wants to leave their options open.

In all honesty, we kind of like the deadpan face Lily makes.

Anyway, Modern Family starts production next month. If you have a female 3=4 year old Asian, no time to waste. Get in there!
