BEST OF: Here are the top Super Bowl commercials! Which one was your favorite?

If you’re like me, you only watch the Super Bowl for the commercials, and the half-time show. I couldn’t care less who’s playing – or who won. In fact I didn’t even know the 49′s were playing the Ravens until the Ravens actually won. It just bores me to tears. Now the commercials, on the other hand, are the highlight of the night for me. After looking around online, I’ve found the commercials that people loved the most. Here are the top favorites! Which one did you like the best?

My favorite has to be the one above, from Taco Bell. LOVED it. Which one is your fave? Let’s talk below!

MANY MORE COMMERCIALS AFTER THE JUMP —- CONTINUE ON! (more…)

A new unfortunate show on TLC has been unveiled: “Obese & Expecting”

I am getting so disgusted with the state of TV these days. I was flipping through the channels the other day, and found a show about a company that makes fish tanks. FISH TANKS!? What the hell is interesting about that!? There is seriously no rock left unturned anymore, no story untold. There will soon be a show about my life…stay tuned.

The network is set to unveil Obese & Expecting, about four moms-to-be who are morbidly overweight.

The project will chronicle their health crises, weight gain and relationship struggles as they strive to deliver healthy babies.

According to the upcoming announcement, “These women are challenging the perception — and the odds — of obese pregnancies, as they become moms, no matter their size or complications.”

The network will launch Obese & Expecting as a one-hour special and potential backdoor series pilot next month. Many TLC shows (such as the hit Extreme Couponing) first launch as stand-alone specials, then the network gauges audience reaction and decides whether to order a full season. We wouldn’t be surprised if this concept, at the very least, received a fair amount of pre-launch publicity (the show’s original working title, by the way, was the MTV-inspired My Supersize Pregnancy, though we would have gone with, say, 600 & Pregnant).

Will you watch? C’mon, you can be honest.

Montel Williams is in the marijuana business now

Talk show guru Montel Williams got another job! This time, he’s a consultant at an upscale marijuana dispensary in Sacramento, California… and he hopes to put medical marijuana use in a good light.

Montel — an outspoken proponent of medical marijuana use — took the job hoping to create a store that runs more like a pharmacy and less like a shady back-alley head shop.

During a news conference yesterday, Montel announced his partnership with the Albatin Wellness Cooperative — and said, “We want to provide safe access [to marijuana] for patients and really medicalize this. Patients should be put first.”

Montel said he’ll be “involved at every level of the cooperative, from the philosophical direction down to the blueprints.”

He added, “I want this to be someplace your mother and father could see themselves walk into.”

Williams was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in the late 90s — and credits pot with alleviating his near-constant neurological pain.

Katie Couric gets ABC talk show

ABC has made a special announcement! Leading news lady Kate Couric will get her own syndicated talk show on ABC.

The network announced the deal today, unveiling the plan which puts Katie in as host and producer.  We’ve learned Katie’s mentor – former “Today” show EP Jeff Zucker — will be the Executive Producer.

As we reported, Katie will make $20 million, mostly for the talk show but there’s a relatively small amount for contributing to various ABC news shows.

Sources tell TMZ, the likelihood is … Katie will get the 3 PM time slot when the show debuts in September, 2012.  That’s the coveted slot Oprah owned for a quarter century.

Matt Lauer will NOT be part of the show.

Dr. Jack Kevorkian dies at 83

The famous “Dr. Death” passed away early Friday at the age of 83.

The assisted-suicide advocate had been hospitalized in Michigan for pneumonia and a kidney-related ailment, his attorney has said.

The 83-year-old former pathologist had struggled with kidney problems for years and had checked into a hospital earlier this month for similar problems, his lawyer, Mayer Morganroth, told CNN last month. He checked back into Beaumont Hospital in the Detroit suburb of Royal Oak on May 18 after suffering a relapse, Morganroth said.

Kevorkian, dubbed “Dr. Death,” made national headlines as a supporter of physician-assisted suicide and “right-to-die” legislation. He was charged with murder numerous times through the 1990s for helping terminally ill patients take their own lives.

He was convicted on second-degree murder charges in 1999 stemming from the death of a patient who suffered from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly called Lou Gehrig’s disease. He was paroled in 2007.

After his release, he said he would not help end any more lives.

In an interview with CNN’s Dr. Sanjay Gupta last year, Kevorkian said he had no regrets about his work.

“No, no. It’s your purpose (as a) physician. How can you regret helping a suffering patient?” he said.

In that interview, Kevorkian said that he had three missions in life and that he himself was not ready to die.

One of his missions was to warn mankind of “impending doom” that will come from the culture of overabundance.

“I’m not going to be too popular for that one,” he said.

His second mission was to educate people about assisted suicide, and his belief that in states where assisted suicide has been legalized, it is not being done right. He believed that people shouldn’t have to be terminal in order to qualify for help in ending their own lives.

Kevorkian’s third stated mission was to convince Americans that their rights are being infringed upon by bans on everything from smoking to assisted suicide.

In case you didn’t know, Kevorkian had a failed run for Congress in Michigan back in 2008 at the age of 79.

The assisted suicide advocate is no longer able to lead people to the end of their lives. Attorney Morganroth said that Kevorkian died a “peaceful death.”
