I’ve been getting emails from readers for nearly 2 years now asking various “industry” questions. None more frequently than this one. “How do I read and understand Nielson ratings?” As a result, and to appease your curious minds, allow me to help you out with this. A Nielson rating may look like this: 8pm – [...]

R.I.P. Fella’s It’s been a tough 24 hours for TV fans. Last night, we learned about the loss of Ed Bradley, the oldest man to ever get a single ear pierced, that baton has now been passed to the youthful by comparison Harrison Ford. Now word has come in that octogenarian Jack Palance passed away [...]

As we all know, today is election day across this fair nation of ours and while we can all anticipate a fun filled night of prime time scrolls at the bottom of our screens and the potential BREAKING NEWS interrupting an all new LAW & ORDER Criminal Intent, I thought I’d interrupt your work day [...]

Orielly and Letterman, Letterman and Orielly…Whenever the two share a stage, it’s like mixing oil and a egocentric barbaric assholic dipshipedness. Well, tonight the two face off once again in what is being described to TVgasm as “one for the ages.” The source inside the show, which was pretaped, tells me “this is one of [...]

It takes all the good story telling of Law & Order and mixes it with a very cool style in the vein of CSI (the original, not the two scumnificant spinoffs). The show is JUSTICE and if you aren’t watching, you’re really missing out. Justice is a legal drama that follows a trial from the [...]

Ah crap, this is freakin sweet! With only a couple more weeks until Family Guy returns to with new episodes on November 12, 9:00pm on FOX, and since I’m such good pals with the series creator, Seth Macfarlane, I thought now might be a good time for a fun filled Family Guy giveaway. We have [...]

We all remember last week when TVgasm broke the story exclusively about Amazing Race All Stars. Well it seems you’re not the only people to find it out exclusively at TVgasm, some of the racers did too and are none too happy about it.

When Innterube launched a few months back, it was a wasteland of sucktastic failed CBS pilots and low budget new media projects. . . many months have gone by and I am happy to report … well it’s still a lot of that BUT it’s a great place to catch the shows you like and [...]

TVgasm has obtained photos purporting to be the final moments of Steve Irwin and, in fairness, a stingray’s tail. Initially, I had decided not to publish the photos since they are likely fake and I will look the fool, and if they are real, I’ll look like an asshole. Not unlike getting into a fight [...]

Congratulations to TV villians and friends of TVgasm Jonathan Baker and Victoria Fuller who on October 6, 2006 gave birth to their first child Trease Alynette Baker.

Joining the ranks of Eve, Pamela Anderson Lee, Paris Hilton, Collin Farrell, Scott Schwartz, Saved By The Bell star Dustin Diamond is said to be the star of his very own adult video. The film in question features the one time screen geek as he..umm…entertains two lovely ladies (neither one his wife) and is tentatively [...]

Last week J-Unit declared the official TVgasm pick for Dancing with the Stars this season is Joe Lawrence. Well I don’t recall being a part of that voting process, and at risk of being the sole voice of dissension, I have to throw my support for Mario Lopez to win. Mario has been known for [...]

This Sunday was the Emmy’s which of course means Emmy parties! You may remember last year during my hiatus from TVgasm, I took some photos with a terrible camera phone at the TVGUIDE Emmy party, to send to J-Unit & B-Side, that year my big “get” was Johnny Fairplay. But this year, I am back [...]

My Emmy night was like eating a cupcake while getting a handjob from Gem and the Holograms while Mr. Belvedere did my laundry. Yes, tonight was one hell of a TVgasm. Story coming soon…

Mr. & Mrs. Smith This week’s People Magazine cover boasts celebrities “BEFORE THEY WERE STARS.” What I found most shocking was that in 1988, heartthrob Brad Pitt was Project Runway‘s Austin Scarlett. Makes me wonder how dreamy Austin will be in 2024. People is available on newsstands now and totally worth buying — even subscribing [...]

Click on the picture to play Hausner’s voicemail message Earlier, we at TVgasm mentioned who we’d like to play the alleged “Serial Sniper” who was captured today by Phoenix police.

Not sure how long this post will be relevant as cease and desist orders are sure to be sent shortly…that is unless of course these were in fact leaked by the network or production companies to create viral buzz….but who would do that?

In today’s Variety magazine, Comedy Central took out this full page Emmy congratulating South Park on its Emmy nomination for “Trapped in the Closet.” I can only assume this was designed prior to Gibsongate, but I for one applaud its well rounded offensiveness and tactless timing. Not only would I vote for South Park to [...]

At TVgasm, we get all sorts of media alerts and press releases in our emails. Not all of them are relevant to what it is we do, and some are just plain silly. Often times people craft random yet clever ways to weave a plug for their business into headline news. This is one such [...]
