Last week Ray Romano was risque and therefore very funny. "Of course you know I wouldn't be doing this kind of material if I still had a show on."

Began to watch the Denzel episode but when Dave started kissing up right off the bat, I just had to click. The Bruce Willis and the Harry Connick were ok as usual with these two guests.

What's with the freaking reruns?

Never liked country music until I heard Emmylou Harris. I still don't really like it now, I just don't despise it as much.

Jerry Lee Lewis? I've always thought he was dead. Why the heck did they make that movie then.

Pretty strong musical line-up for a change.

JdelaCruz · « **Reply #131 on:** May 24, 2006 at 01:03 AM »

Stayed up late hoping Dave would interview the Dixie Chicks after their performance. No dice.

Good thing the Martha Stewart segment was a hoot with Dave asking the all the "slammer" questions and Martha gamely answering. "What happens during lock up?" "Have you gotten in touch with other cons since you got out?" You know, the kind of questions Leno wouldn't dare think to ask.

Plus, Dave ate a stick of butter and washed it down with wine gulped straight from the bottle. Yum.

Hehe I loved the Episode last night. Martha and Dave are neighbors? Anyway, give Dave credit for saying that the Dixie Chicks are the "most successful girl group in the world," he is just being nice. The girls are under fire for being outspoken against the Bush administration and the war in Iraq, and they are being shunned away by the Country music community. And well, Dave is sort of a Democrat is he?

As I understand it, Dave is neither Democrat nor Republican but I think he definitely does NOT like Bush.

JdelaCruz · « **Reply #136 on:** May 25, 2006 at 10:46 PM »

Last night Dave and Rupert revived an old routine they used to do back in the 90s. Rupert would wear a cap rigged with a camera and a radio receiver and Dave would be in a car not far away. Basically, Dave would tell Rupert by radio what to do and what to say verbatim. Dave had him knocking on strangers' doors, trick or treating, buying at mcdonalds, talking to car salesmen, standing in a park, all the while saying and doing the wackiest stuff. The result was a clip segment that was absolutely hilarious. They had to stop it though after some episodes because someone almost pulled a knife on Rupert or something like that.

Anyway, last night there was "Jamba Juice Theater." Same routine except now, Dave's on his desk and Rupert just crosses the street to a Jamba Juice. He doesn't wear a hat anymore because the cameras are just outside the store out of sight. And everything is going on in real time with no editing unlike before where a clip was shown. The routine could have benefitted from some editing but it still killed. Dave may have slowed down a bit but is still quick as a whip. Rupert on the other hand is still the ultimate puppet - mindlessly obedient with no regard for his safety -- or dignity.

Hope they do more of this. Hope Dave would haul his @ss out of his chair once in a while and do his outdoor skits. Really miss those.

Well, you're probably right, maybe its just because Bush is the president for quite sometime, and I started watching only when it started on E! Philippines, and also maybe he's not really nice with Cheney's daughter and Bill O'Reily (Who I think saw Dave as an important figure in TV, well at least before that "60% on your show is crap" came about).

^Well, the minute he walked in he went over to Paul and proceeded to lick Paul's head. Call me queasy but I couldn't handle it after that (it kept playing over and over in my head) and had to tune out (didn't help). Missed Wolfmother in the process. Darn.

Saw part of the Al Gore ep, particulary Stephanie doing the boyfriend dance. I can still remember her doing that the first time years ago and it really killed probably because it was more spontaneous and definitely because Dave's doctor and Rupert ending up doing it with Stephanie in the middle. The boyfiend dance I mean.

Not a bad week with Spacey and Depp and Downey and Paul Simon. Particularly Depp. I hope Spacey does his impersonations.

Fred Willard is a Tonight Show staple isn't he? What's he doing here.
