TVgasm Recaps

By now, everybody knows that I have a certain affliction for Tyra Banks. This affliction is not so encompassing that I have no control of my mental faculties, and I have therefore not spent any time watching her new show. I think she has what it takes to do her type of show, and if Jenny Jones can last as long as she did, my girl still can do it as well. To tell you the truth, the only reason why I decided to review her daytime show was to remind everybody that Cycle 5 of America's Next Top Model starts tonight at 8PM Eastern on UPN. Don't miss it!

More on the Tyra Show after the jump.

If you are unfamiliar with the situation, Tyra and Naomi are not really the best of friends. In fact, Tyra says that dealing with Naomi Campbell is one of the reasons she has all but left that part of the world of modeling. When Tyra came on the scene, there was an unwritten rule that there can only be one black supermodel, and Naomi wouldn't let go. TVgasm has a similar unwritten rule, and as soon as we find that other half-black guy or girl, we aren't letting any more in. Anyway, Tyra is going to confront Naomi on the Tyra show today, Friday November 18th (check local listings). I meant to post this yesterday to give people some advance notice, but since TVgasm is so popular these days, I had a little trouble. Luckily for all of you who don't check TVgasm before you go to work, school, or day care, Oxygen replays the show several times, so make sure to set your Tivos or VCRs if you won't be able to catch it when it airs in your town.

Tyra's doing all of this because you girls hate on each other so much. She's been feuding for 14 years, but now it's all about sisterhood. And, really, aren't we all for sisterhood, especially when it doesn't involve traveling pants? That's what I thought.

UPDATE: Oh, it will be blogged. It BEGS to be blogged.

I was never a big fan of the sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond. It's not that I didn't enjoy Ray Ramano's comedy, and whenever I caught a repeat on the air, I usually had a good laugh. What I did notice was how huge of a bitch Patricia Heaton's character became on the show. Every sitcom about a suburban everyman has to have a nagging wife that bothers him about playing golf and looking at the 20 year-old waitress at the diner, but that doesn't mean she has a right to be a harping banshee. It may not have been Patricia Heaton's fault that her character turned out that way, but I blamed her anyway, and when the show came off the air, I was happy because Patricia Heaton would leave the air with it.

Living in California, I still have to deal with Patricia Heaton in those stupid Albertson's commercials, but The Hollywood Reporter recently announced that Particia Heaton might get her own talk show to go along with a comedy pilot she has waiting for next season. This is all coming on the heels of Will and Grace star Megan Mullaly announcing her own talk show that will launch this fall. I have no clue what I did to deserve this, but I guess it is better than Live with Ryan Cabrera and Constantine Maroulis.
