ExplainItAgain September 16, 2014 Share September 16, 2014 Meredith Viera was super entertaining! Loved that Matt Lauer shade! Oh look, Wacha ate more glasses... Connie naming Joe Theismann and OJ Simpson as football players was hilarious. She does have the most gorgeous hair ever. Justin Long was pretty funny as well. 2 Link to comment
Petunia13 September 17, 2014 Share September 17, 2014 Andy was awkward as fuck talking to Josh Flagg tonight. He confuses Amsterdam for Aushwitz? Josh Altman looked ridiculous in that head to toe purple ensemble. 3 Link to comment
EtheltoTillie September 17, 2014 Share September 17, 2014 I'm not a huge Wiig fan, it feels like she's been playing the same character in each movie since she finished playing the same characters on SNL, but that's just my take. Watching her and Hader together was quite entertaining though and I was only bummed when Hader basically apologized for telling the truth, that the Biebs was just the worst. Who knew Meredith Viera would come to the rescue of the truth?! I wanted to bow down when she coughed out that tidbit about Matt Lauer! Now, I know his lazy, lecherous ass was surely not tuning into a former co-worker's talk show appearance, but I'm sure it will make his twitter feed that he's surely reading on his morning flight from the Hamptons to 30 Rock. Mindy looked impressed; she could take a page from Meredith's book, but I don't think Mindy likes to call anyone out. For those of us who did not watch, please tell us what the tidbit was. Bravo has a tidbit from the aftershow on its web site, but there she is saying something nice about Lauer. Link to comment
ExplainItAgain September 17, 2014 Share September 17, 2014 Andy asked her what the first question she would ask Matt Lauer if she were interviewing him and Meredith said "Who did you screw to get your job?" She made no "kidding, kidding" gestures and didn't back off. Mindy just stared at her open-mouthed. 2 Link to comment
bref September 17, 2014 Share September 17, 2014 Sadly, I think her deadpan delivery was part of the joke. This article claims she and Matt are buds who like to tease each other. :( I love dogs but I would blow a gasket if one ate my glasses! Curb your mutt, Andy! Link to comment

This article claims she and Matt are buds who like to tease each other. :( I am choosing to believe Meredith was throwing actual shade at Matt. ;-)I WANT TO BELIEVE, MEREDITH! I heard the same press in the next day or two, that they're great buds and all: well blech! I'm also going to hold out hope because Meredith doesn't appear to be worried at all about where her career goes or how many more millions she can make. And I think she's class-ay enough to throw real shade while also saying what a great guy he is. Even if she won't throw down, she must know what a colossal asshole the guy is IRL. I think it was Mindy's reaction that sold me. Link to comment
heebiejeebie September 18, 2014 Share September 18, 2014 If it was real shade it just shows Meredith's ignorance since Lauer, before his descent into raging dickheadedness, actually was one of the best morning news show hosts. Up there with Harry Smith, Charles Osgood, Charlie Rose and Jeff Glor. He put up with Bryant Gumble's arrogant jealousy as the newsreader and reined in Katie Couric and her overwheening ego for several years before it finally galloped out of control and he started seeing the financial windfall from letting La Couric beam her way as she basically torched the Today Show to the ground and then moved on. Lauer had the chance to rebuild the show and instead decided to let continue it's descent. Meredith didn't help any imo. The real sad fact about Lauer is he started out being very good at his job. That's the real element of his being such an asshole now. He made the choice. Now real shade would be to ask who Cohen has been blowing and ball cradling to get the jobs he clearly has no skill or talent or ability to carry. Talk about coasting on corporate coitus. Somewhere in Palm Springs are a couple of ancient GE/NBCUniversal prostates that miss the gentle but clever lapping of Andy Cohen's tongue. 3 Link to comment

Lizzing September 19, 2014 Share September 19, 2014 I thought it sucked that Andy didn't let John Hickey go on a bit more about meeting and hanging out with Natasha Richardson. It could have been a nice story, but Andy rushed to commercial. Link to comment
ByaNose September 19, 2014 Share September 19, 2014 Liam Neeson is never better when he's on Watch! He'll do anything, say anything & wear anything. He is so cool. He never disappoints. I also really like Hickey, too. It's funny I think I've seen him in everything but didn't know his name until he started doing Watch. This show is best when they don't use the reality stars as guest. Also, Hickey is a really good looking guy and I liked that he was friendly with Neeson's late wife. Hysterical show tonight. Link to comment
ScoobieDoobs September 19, 2014 Share September 19, 2014 (edited) OK, Andy's smiling bugs the fuck outta me usually, but was he smiling even more in this one? Liam is a nice guy, but if I were there, I'd have kicked Andy in the face to get him to stop the insanely annoying smiling. Goin' now to Google Hickey cuz I have no idea who he is, but I did like the story bout Liam's wife. Andy was a dope. Instead of so stupidly cutting it off, he coulda gotten Liam to talk a bit bout his wife, which he never does publicly. But he really is a shitty host. The shows on Bravo now are so awful, this is the only thing I watch. We'll see how long I can take annoying Andy's non-stop insipid smiling. He has been getting OK guests lately -- except for that Girls chick. Boring twat. I do kinda like watching Andy's eyes bug out when there's someone he's attracted to. He likes Gingers. He really liked the ginger bartender in the black t-shirt (on the show with Liam). And the other nite when he had on Patrick Wilson. Funny, I thought Patrick didn't look all that great -- at first. Then he stood up and -- hello great body. Andy's eyes popped right outta his head. He even said something about his "tits". See, this, I actually kinda like cuz no other gay host would express a little gay lust. Anderson never would in a zillion years (zzzzzzzzzzzz). Neither would Ellen or Rosie or Queen Latifah. Oh yeah, I forgot, she ain't out. Edited September 19, 2014 by ScoobieDoobs 1 Link to comment

Instead of so stupidly cutting it off, he coulda gotten Liam to talk a bit bout his wife, which he never does publicly. But he really is a shitty host. J.B. Hickey is one of those actors who, once on your radar, is actually in a million things you've seen. He's just crazy good in every role. Manhattan has actually really sucked me in, and a lot of it has to do with the chemistry of Hickey's character. The show has some issues, like pacing and false drama, but Hickey and Olivia Williams and unknown-young-guy/semi-rival actor are great. Classic Andy that he genuinely seemed confused about whether The Manhattan Project is fiction or not. Liam is the best dammit, and I'm glad I stayed tuned even though Andy's asshat impression of Taken died on the table when he so unconvincingly had to seethe "I have a very particular set of skills..." He couldn't even get through a spoof of the line without my brain trying to make a break for the door out of embarrassment. FWIW, Liam did a pretty in-depth interview with Anderson for 60 Minutes last year that was about 90% personal and related to losing Natasha; absolutely heartbreaking, but a wonderful interview. How is it that Andy can get "Schindler's Schnapps (?)" out with nary a problem, but when discussing (poorly, of course) a Holocaust survivor, his mind goes to Amsterdam instead of Auschwitz? It's like he needs Drunk History come to life where anything that actually has happened, is happening, or will happen in the world is somehow related to booze, and then it's locked into his noodle like the nuclear codes. 2 Link to comment
Talented Tenth September 22, 2014 Share September 22, 2014 It's as if Andy was purposely trying to make Josh Flagg cry. He obviously saw him start to get emotional and he kept asking more and more questions until Josh was totally broken down about the death of his grandmother. Link to comment

Morbs September 30, 2014 Share September 30, 2014 It's fun when the guests like Jeff Garlin and Luanne are real talkers and you can just read Andy's mind screaming "Wrap it up, movie it along, I want to talk, it's time for a game" while they are going on and on. 3 Link to comment
Irritable October 1, 2014 Share October 1, 2014 I got mad when Jeff didn't get to finish his story about eating 36 donuts during filming because he didn't yet know about the "spit bucket". He was going to say what happened the next day, but Andy trampled over him, probably do take another caller who was going to ask some lame question no one cares about. When I saw Sofia Vergara was going to be on last week, I hoped the relaxed nature of this show would show a better side to her personality than I had seen in other interviews, but...no. She at least didn't go on and on about her own beauty and what a burden it is, which I appreciated because I've heard that from her enough, but she's just not fun. She's not a good sport, and almost seems defensive when she has no reason to be. I'm officially not a fan, now that I have seen her in a forum where she had the chance to just be laid back and enjoy herself instead of shilling her new perfume like a Real Housewife, and getting visibly irritated when the questions asked were not to her liking. BJ Novak and Kate Walsh were pretty fun tonight. Kate might have been drunk? She looked stunning, as always. I'm officially sick of Andy's dog now. Link to comment

ExplainItAgain October 1, 2014 Share October 1, 2014 I could instantly tell that Jeff Garlin had never seen Andy's show before...and then he fessed up to it right after the break. He was a bit of an annoying talker, but Andy needs to loosen up a bit. You know, maybe sometimes it's OK that they don't get to play the game. God forbid we don't get the 137th installment of Andy loves crotchy. 2 Link to comment

At least she got to participate in gamelets! HUGE EYEROLL. Link to comment
TVFan17 October 4, 2014 Share October 4, 2014 (edited) Gretchen Mol must have been a last minute replacement, as she was not scheduled to be on with Melissa. The other guest was supposed to be someone from Saturday Night Live, I think. I like Gretchen, but I like Melissa as well. I think that Melissa is the bigger 'get' for the show, so it didn't shock me or even bother me that Andy talked to her a lot. He probably didn't need a co-guest next to Melissa, but it was funny when they began talking about (Andy's favorite subject) weed -- the merits of edible vs. smoked -- and Gretchen weighed in with her thoughts on it as well. That seemed to be the bonding moment for all 3 of them. I had heard Melissa's Howard Stern interview earlier that morning, and was impressed with her. She is a very upbeat, open person with a great attitude and good sense of humor, who has also experienced a lot of interesting things. She probably has a million stories, but on a show like WWHL she is forced into playing Andy's games and fending off his dog. Oh, and Wacha was out of control on the After Show, constantly attacking Melissa's boots. I have to assume -- or hope -- that Andy asks his guests in advance if they mind the dog coming out and possibly being rambunctious. I certainly hope that he doesn't just let the dog loose without warning. Edited October 4, 2014 by Sherry67 Link to comment

meisje October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 (edited) I still don't get the show. I guess I should call Time Warner? I don't want anyone to know I watch it! But you're free!! I know what you mean though, a few years ago when I had cable, I was shocked to find I couldn't watch The Soup because they simply didn't carry the E! channel at all. First of all, I was convinced I was an idiot who couldn't find where they'd hidden the channel, and then I had to call and ask (second humiliation), and then had to explain to them why they should carry the channel (this was the Kardashian heyday no less) given that Joel McHale is a WA-raised comedian. It was like trying to convince a piece of chalk, needless to say I ended up getting out of cable. Why was Caroline the #1 guest who Andy spent 90+% of the show speaking to? I wasn't a mega fan of the years of SNL when Ana was there, but I could have a thimble for a head and still know that she's a person with actual talent and skills (though I realize it's not in Andy's wheelhouse to differentiate). She looked confused and her body language grew stranger as things went on, like she couldn't believe Andy was asking her nada and going on for one-third of the show about Caroline's 12.5 lb. rack. I loved the stupidity of the preview for tomorrow's "prime" one-on-one where he was shown asking a series of softball questions and they flashed to like the 3 facial expressions the Gorga's have for all of life. I'm suresuresuresuresure he's going to really break it down and ask the hard questions and get the tough answers... gag... Edited October 6, 2014 by meisje 1 Link to comment

Morbs October 7, 2014 Share October 7, 2014 I don't know much about basic cable, are they subject to local affiliate station owners who can censor certain programs like network stations can be?

I've made lifelong friends. This weekend I reunited with an Italian American classmate and her family. Her mom is hysterical. We were discussing men, bfs, good guys, bad guys.

Juneau Gal October 13, 2014 Share October 13, 2014 Jim Marchese is breathtakingly arrogant and delusional. His delusion is matched only by his wife's. Egads what a pair. Signing up for RHofNJ was a serious, SERIOUS mistake on their part despite how glad they both profess for having done it. This is going to haunt them for a long time; socially and probably financially. Who would want to use Jim's business after seeing him on these shows? And just when I am thinking Amber is not that bad, perhaps just a bit misguided, she states she wouldn't change one thing about Jim. Amber baby, he's all yours! 3 Link to comment

And Josh quickly corrected him, "Aushwitz" so it's sounded like he bungled the cities.
