3 hours ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »
The ladies of The View are known for keeping it real. So when their ousted former cohost Star Jones returned to the show Wednesday, Barbara Walters cut right to the chase about Jones' 2006 controversial exit from the show… "Are we really going to go here Barbara?"

Walters reminded the audience that although Jones' contract had not been renewed for another season, she blindsided her costars on-air when she announced she was choosing to leave. "It was a bad emotional time," Jones admitted. "I made the decision that I wanted to go out on my own terms so that if I walked back here I'd feel good about »

'Gcb' Stars Preview Their Texas-Sized New Drama
1 hour ago | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
"Gcb" (premieres Sun., March 4, 10 p.m. Est on ABC) has gotten a bit of a bad rap already. First it was over the many name changes (what was "Good Christian Bitches" got tamed to "Good Christian Belles," which was then shortened to just "Gcb"); but then, people started saying the show's portrayal of life in Dallas, Texas, was too over-the-top.
Being from Dallas, Texas, let me assure you: It's not.
I caught up with the show's fabulous cast -- Kristin Chenoweth, Annie Potts, Leslie Bibb, David James Elliott, Miriam Shor, Marisol Nichols, Jennifer Aspen and Brad Beyer -- to talk all about their adventures in the Lone Star State, and why they believe they're in very capable hands.
"We have Bobby Harling, who wrote 'Steel Magnolias,' writing television for us," Potts said. For those uninitiated in the ways of the South, oh my Lord & Taylor -- "Steel Magnolias »

Report: Uggie To Appear At Oscars After All

A week after a report by Reuters claimed that Uggie was being snubbed by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (no invitation to the red carpet or to the theater itself) and denied rumors that he would appear in a sketch with Billy Crystal, Deadline.com columnist Pete Hammond is reporting that the Jack Russell terrier has already taped his appearance with Crystal and that he is appearing on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show each night this week to predict the winners in the top categories. Meanwhile, one of Uggie’s trainers, Sarah Clifford, is complaining that his best scene in The Artist landed on the cutting-room floor. “There was a take in the scene where Jean holds a gun up to his head when Uggie actually reached out and tried to pull the gun out of his hand with his mouth.

Report: News Corp Nears Big Settlement With U.K. Singer
1 hour ago | Studio Briefing - TV News | See recent Studio Briefing - TV News news »
The manager of British singer Charlotte Church has denied a Financial Times report that she has settled her invasion-of-privacy lawsuit against News International, the parent of the now-defunct News of the World for £500,000 (about $750,000). Of six “test” cases related to the NoW‘s voicemail hacking scandal due to go to trial on Monday, Church’s is the only one that has not been settled out of court. In a terse interview with today’s (Wednesday) Guardian newspaper, John Vernile, Church’s manager, said that he has been trying to reach a resolution with News International. “We are definitely not resolved,” he said, “It’s not resolved until it’s resolved. I can’t say anything more.” Church has claimed that 33 articles appearing in the NoW were based on facts obtained through phone hacking. Critics of News International, a unit of Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp, had hoped that the initial »

Star Jones returned to The View on Wednesday, marking her first visit to the daytime talk show since her dramatic departure almost six years ago. “It was ugly. Everything around was ugly,” said Jones, regarding the on-air bombshell she dropped on her costars when she announced in June 2006 that she would not be returning to the program. “It was a bad emotional time. Nasty things were being said in the media… I made the decision that I wanted to go out on my own terms so that when I walked back in here, if I were ever invited, I would feel good about coming in. »

Murdoch: Illegal Activities Will Not Be Tolerated
1 hour ago | Studio Briefing - TV News | See recent Studio Briefing - TV News news »
A day after News Corp Chairman Rupert Murdoch lifted the suspensions of ten arrested senior journalists working for his daily tabloid The Sun, he sent an email to the staff of the newspaper warning that he will not “protect people who have paid public officials.” Underlining that resolve, he said, “We will obey the law. Illegal activities simply cannot and will not be tolerated at any of our publications.” Inasmuch as the arrests of the Sun journalists had purportedly stemmed from evidence uncovered by an internal investigation by a News International panel, questions immediately arose as to whether Murdoch had been briefed on that evidence, and, if so, whether he had found it to be insufficient to warrant the continued suspension of the arrested journalists. Labor MP Chris Bryant, himself a victim of phone hacking by reporters for Murdoch’s now-defunct News of the World, called the decision to lift »

'X Factor': Show might add a second host; Britney Spears a possible judge
1 hour ago | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Simon Cowell promised a number of changes to try to boost ratings of his under-performing show "The X Factor" going into Season 2. And it looks like there might be double the fun on stage next year.
FremantleMedia North America, the company that produces the series, tells TV Guide that the singing competition might have two hosts next season to replace the recently fired Steve Jones.
"Simon's vision was always to have a man and woman host this and to make it feel a little bit like an award ceremony," says company CEO Cecile Frot-Coutaz. "A glamorous girl and a good-looking guy doing a kind of double act."
The double host scenario is something that "American Idol" tried out in their first season when Brian Dunkleman stood alongside Ryan Seacrest on the show. Dunkleman was sacked and Seacrest has gone on to become a star.

2 hours ago | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
"The Real Housewives of New York" finished taping two weeks ago with its new cast, and producers are already saying this is the best season yet -- the ladies travel the globe and even go skinny dipping.
"Sonja [Morgan] and Ramona [Singer] have totally bonded and formed a great alliance against the new ladies," a show insider tells me. "They are so inseparable this season that they shared a bed together in St. Barts and even went skinny dipping late one night after enjoying a few glasses of Ramona's wine."
This will be the first season of the hit show since original cast members Jill Zarin and Alex McCord were fired and replaced with Carole Radziwill, a distant relative of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, fashion designer Heather Thomson, and Wall Street wife Aviva Drescher, who is related to actress Fran Drescher.
