The Entertation Index: June 11

June 11, 2009

Bonnaroo – Are you a dirty hippie, but can’t afford the ticket to Bonnaroo? AT&T wants to help by live streaming special events from the Tennessee festival on its website. Catch Phish, the Boss and others on their special streaming player during the three-day festival. Cover yourself in mud, drop some acid and relax at home with your laptop, free from the hassle of a a trust funder’s body odor and any white people with dreadlocks.

DeVito, Danny – Who doesn’t love Danny DeVito? I mean, c’mon. Would you ever believe he was Arnold Schwarzenegger’s twin? Hilarious! You may remember a few months back when DeVito showed up to The View seemingly wacked out on goofballs. He’s at it again, this time flirting and drinking on a live shoot from a Philadelphia Fox affiliate. At 8:00 AM. Shame on you, Danny. Carla LeBeck is at home and worried sick.

Ghosts, I Ain’t Fraid of No – In case you haven’t noticed, there’s currently a secret groundswell of Ghostbusters-centric rumors floating around the internet. June 16 sees the release of the official Ghostbusters game, which features Aykroyd, Ramis and Bill Murray reprising their roles, and two of the scribes from The Office are currently writing a third sequel, which the three former proton-packers have all expressed interest in. All I’m saying is that you better get Rick Moranis back on board. That guy is sorely missed. Somebody go find him, for the love of God. This world needs Rick Moranis right now.

Jackson, Michael – The King of Pop is going green these days, presumably by recycling part of his ear to make his nose. Top that, Al Gore! Seriously, though. I think I’m legitimately scared when I see this guy’s pictures. Stop haunting my dreams, Michael Jackson!

Letterman, David - As he currently leads Conan in 11:30 ratings, Dave inks a deal with CBS until 2012. No joke here. While those who know me know that Conan’s my hero, when I was a child I idolizedĀ Letterman. Television is simply better with both these guys on, plain and simple, and TBTS wishes them both the best. They’re both fantastic.

Safer, Morley – The 60 Minutes journalist told the NY Posts Page Six that “if I could interview Dolly [Parton] every week, I would.” Thank God, then, that someone else is in charge of 60 Minutes. The elder newsman also derided bloggers, saying “I would trust a citizen journalist as much as I would trust a citizen surgeon.” Screw you for judging me, Morley Safer!
