‘The Game’s’ Season Premiere Last Night., was Garbage!

The ReadyWriter

The highly anticipated season 5 of BET’s scripted series The Game premiered last night, and the reactions to the show were mixed but in my opinion, last night’s show was garbage!

The Game’s director Bille Woodruff decided to take the show in a slightly different direction from the past 4 seasons. For starters, the show was lost without the wit and dead-on comedic timing of the sexy Brittany Daniels (Kelly Pitts).

Director Woodruff decided to water down the intensely independent Tasha Mack (played by Wendy Raquel Robinson, above right), and give her more emotions and feelings. And just to make sure we understood that Tasha Mack’s character has grown (and is no longer funny), Kanye West’s anemic single “Lost In The World” played annoyingly in the background of her scenes (Oh it was so annoying).

The newest addition to the cast, Brandy Norwood, left, added absolutely nothing to the show as bartender Chardonnay. Her faux hood character was extra, annoying, over-the-top and the scenes with her and Coby Bell (Jason Pitts) dragged to a crawl.

I wasn’t impressed with last night’s show but let’s see if it’ll get better.

“It’s Official: Charlie Sheen’s Character Dies Off The Show”

The ReadyWriter

Charlie Sheen’s character (Charlie Harper) will officially die off the scene in the season premier of “Two and a Half Men”.

According to TMZ, the producers wrote a brilliant script that kills the character off and made sure there is absolutely no way, the actor could and/or would return to the show in the future.

Sheen’s character has sort of been replaced by new comer, Ashton Kutcher.

Back in February when Sheen went on a brutal rant of public insults against the producer of the show, Chuck Lorre, CBS cancelled the show for the season and later confirmed they would not renew Sheen’s billion dollar contract. Sheen then set out on his meaningless “still winning” campaign against CBS producers.

Last season’s finale ended with Charlie flying to Paris to be with his crazy neighbor Rose, the new season will kick-off on September 19 with Charlie’s funeral and Rose speaking and telling everyone how he died.

Do you think Charlie Sheen’s still winning?

“The Mo’Nique Show Was Canceled”

The ReadyWriter

Dayum… and I never got a chance to watch.

According to Rodney Ho of the Atlanta Journal’s Radio & TV Talk Blog, the Mo’Nique Show has been canceled.

In an interview he did at 2:40 p.m., the stand-up comic said he enjoyed the experience working with Mo’Nique. “I’m selling out shows now,” he said. “That’s a win.” He heard the news from Mo’Nique’s husband but hasn’t spoken to the Oscar-winning actress yet. (He wouldn’t say when he knew about this, implying he has known for awhile.)

“So Wendy Williams Was Booted Off Of DWTS?”

The ReadyWriter

Wendy Williams took home the lowest score, with just 15 out of 30 points for her ‘Last Night a DJ Saved My Life’ foxtrot on DWTS. As Goodman put it it, Williams worked hard but the dance ‘was suited to radio.’ Another judge added that she thought the talk show host took a step backwards this week.

“Despite the stereotypes, this is one black girl who can’t even do the running man,” Wendy said during her post elimination interview.

She’s not too upset about the elimination either.

“I’m relieved,” Williams added. “I’m getting on a jet plane and going back to everything that’s near and dear to me that I’ve neglected personally for this six-week journey. I have a 10-year-old son and any parent knows that 5th grade and being 10 is a child on the brink! I have a 12-year marriage and a talk show that demands my attention, too.”

“Kristie Alley Hits The Floor On DWTS Last Night”

The ReadyWriter

Full figured and beautiful actress Kirstie Alley stumbled and hit the floor hard during last night’s telecast of ‘Dancing With The Stars’ . Alley’s dance partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy struggled under her weight and dropped her during a complex dance move. At least she got back up and continued to dance. Good for her.
