Chris Kattan is going to be on Celebrity Big Brother.

I can't help but find this a little sad.  I mean, I fully understand his career is not going great guns, but this is really scraping the bottom of the barrel in trying to get attention.

Also showing up on one episode as a judge - Finesse Mitchell (2003-2006). 

I haven't gotten past the first episode yet, but apparently Bobby Moynihan and Heidi Gardner are judges too.

I've seen some mixed reviews for the show, but I enjoyed the first episode - it's better than the trailer suggests.

Maybe it's because I don't normally watch any of the zillions of cooking/baking competition shows, but this one hit me with just the right amount of silliness at the right time (i.e. a time when I didn't want to think much at all about what I'm watching).  I'm about half way through now.

I just watched the first ep of Is it Cake. I always like Mikey Day, but I did not like anyone else, not the contestants, not the judges. I understand both change, but that's enuf for me. I do enjoy seeing how bakers make cake look like other things, but the rest was annoying.

However, it struck me that Mikey looks a bit like Pat Sajak. Has he ever played him in a Wheel of Fortune sketch?
