In case you haven't seen it, here's the first poster from the upcoming Transformers movie. I'm hearing rumors that Bumblebee is going to be some kind of sportscar instead of a Beetle, but I'm will to give the movie the benefit of the doubt, at least for now. There's a teaser up at www.transformersmovie.com. Who doesn't like a good tease?

In more urgent entertainment-related news, I have gotten a few e-mails and had various discussions with people regarding the Lifetime channel basically giving The Golden Girls the boot. While they used to be on from 9-10 am, 6-7 pm, and 11-midnight, they've now lost all slots except for the early morning one. To make matters worse, Lifetime has replaced them from 6-7 pm with Reba. No, I've never watched it, nor will I ever, but I am confident in saying that I'm sure that the show blows and that Lifetime has made a serious programming error. Thankfully, because of my many years in the biz, I'm well-connected and was able to obtain the e-mail adresses of some higher-ups over at Lifetime. I sent them this letter last night...

To the good people at Lifetime,

I'm sure your getting a ton of email on this so I'll keep it brief but please, please, please bring back the Golden Girls and move Reba to 3-4 am where she belongs. My readers have long known about how much I love the GG''s and I'm getting all kinds of e-mail today requesting that I contact you. Please do something. Reba ain't no Dorothy, Blanche, Rose or even Sophia...
