Bret at the Tonys, Megan [Won't Get A] Millionaire, and Real Housewives

Back from our first Boob Tube show! Olivia and I had tons of fun chatting about some of our favorite summer reality show moments.

In case you missed it, here's a quick recap:

-Bret Michaels was almost "decapitated" at the Tony Awards after lip synching "Nothin' But A Good Time." After the fall, Michaels said, "All I remember is Shrek and the donkey helping me up and Liza [Minnelli] giving me a towel". Can you imagine Liza and Shrek appearing before you after being knocked unconscious? Awesome.

-"Megan Wants A Millionaire" was canceled after only 3 episodes because contestant Ryan Jenkins allegedly murdered his ex-wife, former Playboy model Jasmine Fiore, on August 15 before fleeing to Canada. He was found dead in his hotel room on August 23. VH1 has also cancelled "I Love Money 3" because Jenkins was also a contestant on the show. Sadly, we are never going to see the episode in which Sex Toy Dave gets busted for having been on Bravo's "Millionaire Matchmaker" TWICE. But isn't that a little hypocritical, Megan? You were on "Rock of Love" AND "I Love Money."

-Since Paula Abdul has quit "American Idol," guest judges for next season reportedly include Kelly Clarkson (duh), Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham (does this mean David will be in the audience? Drool...), and Kristin Chenoweth (*girl crush alert!*).

-A few celebs will make guest appearances on "Gossip Girl" next season: Tyra Banks will play Ursula Nyquist, an actress Serena must "control" and Hilary Duff will play a movie star who is also Vanessa's roomie. Reports are also coming in that Chuck will kiss a guy. Does this mean the TV series will finally be more like the books?

-NYC Prep, the "real" Gossip Girl, was interesting though possibly short-lived. Even though these kids are privileged and seemed to act more mature, it is refreshing to see their normal teenage awkwardness and how they actually did stuff other than drink and party all the time (though they did some of that too...). What was not refreshing: Jessie's crazy eyes. Reminds me of Ramona from Real Housewives of New York.

-Real Housewives:

-Olivia likes OC because they don't work but just hang out and have fun.

-I like NYC because they have jobs but still have fun. And I love Jill.

-We both like New Jersey because of Teresa's freak out during the season finale when she flips the table. I would probably flip a table because of Danielle too. Ugh.

-Neither of us like Atlanta because they argue too much and it's annoying.

Also, I said on the show that "Tool Academy 2" doesn't start for a few weeks. I was wrong. It starts tonight at 8 pm central on VH1!!! Unfortunately that is the same time "Drop Dead Diva" is on Lifetime. I hate having to choose between TV shows...

Coming up next week:

-Top Chef Masters

-Top Chef Las Vegas

-Glee

-Community

-Is TLC trying to be the Food Network?

-The final season of "Monk" :(
