Since John McCain performed at the RNC in front of a green screen, the YouTubes is about to get clogged up again with green-screen challenges, just like before. And here's the first one I've found, where girls shake their be-hinds behind his face....

Joe Lieberman looks so much like Max Wright from "ALF," I just can't look at him on TV during the Republican National Convention without thinking of "ALF." I'm just sayin' as, you know, a lapsed TV critic. Look for yourself!

A week ago, I listed all the Hollywood celebs who are supporting Barack Obama (tons of them) and John McCain (a handful). One of those Obama donors just died, and you know his voice, but not his face.
As I wrote last week:
"Even if you watch a...

Two thoughts this morning.
First of all, happy birthday, John McCain. Enjoy being 72 years old.
Second: As a lingering former TV critic, I've been watching the presidential campaign with a sharp eye on how Obama and McCain have been portraying...

So let me get this straight. John McCain, 72, used taxpayer dollars to campaign in a public high school (against the law) where he told kids in school that he loves a rap song that cheers on young women to have sex and ingest semen more...

The biggest celebs in the world have donated many thousands to Barack Obama. But John McCain inspires very little star power. And a few stars who donated to Hillary Clinton still haven't contributed to Obama.

The last time vocalist Jennifer Holiday opened for a comedian on stage in Las Vegas, it was for Rosie O’Donnell, and Rosie really riled up her crowd with a raunchy cuss-fest that freaked out some tourists.

Check out the photos from this weekend's Playboy party here, featuring costume lingerie.
It was an extravagant party, as I noted in today's column, and was a lot more friendly than the average humongo party.

Some events in the Olympics are not sports, obviously. That's why it's called the Olympic Games. We can argue all day long about the merits of water polo. But I have invented a one-point test to save us all some time, at least, figuring out which...
