Kelsey Grammer Suffers a Heart Attack

… at a beach about 90 minutes from my parent’s home! He’s no George Clooney, but whenever I see a smiling Kelsey Grammer I always think to myself that he looks quite well preserved. So imagine my surprise when I learned that the former “Cheers” star suffered what doctors are calling “a mild heart attack” Saturday morning. Reports say Grammer was paddle boarding with his wife Camille near their vacation home on the Big Island of Hawaii Saturday morning when he began experiencing chest pains. According to his rep, the 53-year-old former “Frasier” star is currently “resting comfortably” and is … Continue reading →

Grammer Gets Dumped

Oh no! Say it ain’t so… FOX just announced that it is dumping my favorite show, “Back to You.” For those of you who never found the time to enjoy the short-lived comedy starring my favorite sitcom star Kelsey Grammer (who was teamed up Patricia Heaton) you will now never get the chance to do so. The shocking news (Grammer told reporters the decision to cancel the show was a “surprise and a shame”) came just days after network execs told the cast and crew that the show was indeed coming back for another season in the fall. In fact, … Continue reading →

The first morning I met Lollipop, she and her mom, Martha Ann, were coming towards me on the path. Lollipop stopped dead in her tracks when she saw me, hunkered down, and was … Continue reading →

New “News Shows”

Hands down one of my favorite TV shows of all time is “Frasier.” The now defunct NBC comedy (which you can still catch in syndication) was masterfully written starred some of the funniest actors around. The verbal sparring between Kelsey Grammer (Frasier Crane) and David Hyde Pierce (Niles Crane) was by far the most hilarious material I have ever watched (over and over and over again). Those two were simply brilliant on that show. Sigh. I really miss “Frasier.” While it will never be resurrected, I take solace in the fact that Kelsey Grammer will be returning to television this … Continue reading →

This Week in Television – May 18, 2007

Posted on by

Big week for television viewers as the networks announced new shows and those that were cancelled. If you are a fan of “Veronica Mars,” “Jericho,” “The Class,” “Close to Home,” “George Lopez,” “Help Me Help You,” “What About Brian,” “Crossing Jordan,” or “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip,” I have bad news – all of these shows have been cancelled. Despite poor ratings, “Friday Night Lights” was renewed by NBC. “According to Jim” may or may not be back – ABC hasn’t decided yet. “The New Adventures of Old Christine” will be back, but in midseason, not on the fall … Continue reading →
