Entertainment Tonight

Entertainment Tonight has been going down hill for the last few years, but as of last night (Aug 17th 2006) they reached a new low.

In an effort to try to hype up their broadcast, they decided to post actual photos of JonBenet Ramsey's body in their teasers last night ...saying "Pictures from the case you have never seen before". The two photos were graphic and very disturbing. One was of the side of her face and head/neck and you could clearly see the cord that was used to strangle her around her neck, and bruising on her face. This was so hideously awful, I could not believe it. How has this got to do with ANYTHING remotely related to Hollywood Entertainment?? Nothing!! They have dropped their level of dignity and values to a new low....and it shows. This used to be THE premiere show to watch...and it's just garbage now.

I will watch Access Hollywood from now on.

What is wrong with NISCHELLE TURNER? She laughs at everything when things are not even funny. Her laugh seems to be phony. She appears to laugh no matter what. There is nothing wrong with laughing, but she laughs when whatever the topic isn't even funny. She comes across as not real. All the other correspondent's don't laugh at serious. She laughs at everything. It's sickening and seems fake. I don't like watching when she is on.

I'm just wondering how much of Anna Nicole's inheritance is going to Mark Steines. There is nothing objective about his reporting. Entertainment Tonight has been hurting for content lately, but I did not expect them to stoop to the levels they have of late. The interviews with Anna Nicole just prior to her passing were in poor taste, but the latest interview with Howard K. Stern is a new low. If I didn't know better I'd think Mark Steines was in the employ of Mr. Stern. As for the content on the show of late, more time is spent on discussing what is coming up next, what is coming up tomorrow, and what is coming up next week, than on the entertainment "news." I hate to see this happen to the show. I used to be a fan. Now I fast forward mostly.

Nichelle is phony and ruins the quality of this show. She laughs or pretends to be on the verge of laughing for no reason. You must get a genuine cohost for Kevin who does a stellar job.

ET (and similar shows like Access Hollywood) is nothing but old clips! For example, today was the 20th anniversary of Selena's death. ET featured 10-15 minutes of clips throughout the life of J-Lo. This happens whenever something significant (or even minor) happens in the life of a celebrity -- they'll show every clip of that celebrity in their archive whether or not it's relevant to today's event.
