Friends mean pressuring you to do things of which you were once initially resistant. I, Meaghan, your favorite xy element to Media Junkyard’s Über manliness, am now on Twitter(!!), because i know that ya’ll need to know what i’m doing ALL THE TIME.
like when i’m plucking my eyebrows lest they become chewbacca twins on my face.
or when i’m wondering why i can’t paint my nails without getting polish on my elbow.
pressing stuff.
so check me out here, or on my twitter box of wonder to the right. then you can ask rob and chris why my box is last. –Meg

Wednesday, August 7th, at the Nikon Theater at Jones Beach, four friends meandered through the crowds, which were buzzing with the anticipation of seeing The Stone Temple Pilots. Rumors of the the disastrous PNC Bank Arts Center performance loomed over the Tri-State Area. Many of the members of the crowd were in attendance at the PNC show where Weiland made them wait for hours before coming out. When he did finally grace them with his presence on stage, he struggled to make it through his own songs. Earlier in the week, Scott had crashed into his band mates’ drum set, at which point they needed to pick him up and place him back at his mic. At Nikon, no one knew which Scott Weiland they would be seeing.

Just got back home from the NBC Upfront held at the one and only 30 Rock. As previously announced Jimmy Fallon is “Officially” going to take over for Conan O’Brien when he takes the helm of The Tonight Show. The event was awesome tons of celebs. The only people I didn’t really take pic’s of was the cast of Hero’s and Chuck. Check out the gallery to see some of the peeps who were there. You can also read some of my “tweets” since I was twittering away for a good part of the event.

P.S. Stanley and Darryl from the office ROCK!

Upfront Week has begun! This week will be filled with tons of great TV info. To start it off, we have a few pre-upfront tidbits. Today, NBC will be having their upfront at 4pm. Stayed tuned after that for the official announcements!

-NBC is expected to officially announce today that Jimmy Fallon will be taking the place of Conan O’Brien when he, in turn, takes on the reigns as the host of Late Night. Most likely, Fallon will step in June ‘09 when Conan takes over for Jay Leno.

-Boston Legal will be coming back this fall for a fifth season on ABC.

-Fox has renewed the 30-minute comedy ‘Til Death for another season. Bacl to You, sadly, looks to be canned as it has not been picked up for a second season.

-The Game on CW has been ordered for a third season.

-The final two seasons of ABC’s Lost has been extended by one hour each. This makes both seasons a total of 17 hours each. Most likely 15 episodes and a two hour finale, but don’t be surprised if Lost changes it up a little. Part 1 of Lost’s season 4 finale , “There’s No Place Like Home,” will air May 15th and part 2 and 3 will be airing May29th.
