Jon Stewart dinner shakes up late night

An interesting dinner meeting could lead to unexpected reshuffling of late night talk show hosts as NBC boss Jeff Zucker wined and dined fake news anchor Jon Stewart and his agent. Conan O'Brien and Jay Leno were also at the table, but only in spirit, becauseConan is set to take over The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in 2009, and NBC needs someone to fill Conan's 12:30 am slot.

Aha! But it gets more complicated...

Lately, Leno has been squeaking that he maybe wants to stay, and NBC, which is making tons of money from Leno's lowbrow, often amateurish show (see The Late Show with David Letterman for comparison), has been letting rumours fly that they may let Conan go with a $40-million dollar bye-bye.

And that could be bad, or at least merciful news for Jimmy Kimmel.

Danny Bonaduce says he's getting a divorce

Gravel-voiced, iron-pumping, edge-walking wing-nut and former child TV star Danny Bonaduce has livened up morning radio in LA since he was forced into the mix at the low-rated, monotonous and amateurish Adam Carolla show that replaced Howard Stern. While Carolla, whose job is protected by BFF Jimmy Kimmel's contract as a "comedy consultant" to the station group, continues his sour, droning, know-it-all dummy rants about dry-walling and left-turn signals, Bonaduce has added a lowbrow Sternian dose of reality.

And this morning, he took the show to a compelling new level that Carolla couldn't have imagined when he announced that he and his red-haired songstress wife Gretchen-- costar of his VH1 hyper-reality TV show Breaking Bonaduce-- are heading for a divorce.

Breaking chronicles Bonaduce's problems with drugs, alcohol, anger management-- and his marriage, so his revelation was a taser dart in the drabness, riding herd over an interview with an actress from ABC's Notes from The Underbelly.

What A Dick

This Friday Night, Andy Dick and The Apprentice's Boobanka Trump were both guests on JKL and while a snarky clever puntastic post is the norm aroud here, I'm not sure there are words for how this ended.

Enjoy.

Stern on Kimmel: What's wrong with this picture?

Marking a year since he disappeared from the public eye and began doing his show in private for pay audience on the Sirius Satellite network, Howard Stern made the round of talk shows to try and get some more subscribers, some attention, and maintain some semblance of relevance (sadly, he was wearing the same outfit he wore before he disappeared in 2005). Among the stops was Friday night's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Stern and Kimmel are close pals. But not as close you might think. There's something wrong with this picture. See if you can figure it out.
