Soap stars' "Days" are over

All of you soap opera fans better grab another box of tissues, because two actors from Days of Our Lives got the ole budget cut yesterday. Deidre Hall and Drake Hogestyn, who have been on the show for 32 years and 22 years respectively, were laid off due to the horrible economy. The show is scheduled to continue on -- they just received an 18-month contract extension, which is a little shy from their last one, which was for 5 years.

You KNOW the economy is bad when celebrities start getting the budget cut.

Carson Daly Sucks

If you wanted to see the effects of not having writers, watch Last Call With Carson Daly. I have a schedule where I get home a little after midnight every night from work and it takes me a couple hours to unwind and go to sleep. So I have been watching Carson to see how he does without writers. He's back... the writers are not.

Holy tish. This stuff is awful.

If you can't stay up due to work/school or whatever -- TIVO IT!!! It's so bad and uncomfortable, you can't stop watching.
In fact, Carson's show parallels Britney Spears' career in many ways.

Seriously. Tune in. It's worth it. If anything will make this show last 'til 2009 it's the lack of writers. Because with the writers, he sucks. Without the writers, he's so bad your eyes become paralyzed with suck and can't move away from the screen. Tragically and awfully awesome.

Good Luck (keeping movie-goers in their seats for the entire 96 minutes of hell) Chuck

Well... I told you so (see Celebrity Dirt "Thursday"). But then again even a blind man could see that "Good Luck Chuck" was gonna suck.

But - just for poops and laughs - here are some reviews. Mind you, it is currently getting a 3% at Rotten Tomatoes... the worst I've ever seen ANY movie EVER there.

It tries to be a sappy love story, an incredibly vile gross-out comedy and an envelope-pushing soft-core porno movie all at once. It ends up being an unappealing abomination.

Just when you think things can't possibly get worse, they do. And then some.

Please Hollywood, do us a favor. No more Dane Cook! I think I'll make a ribbon for this cause and start wearing it.

Maybe Dane Cook should stick to stand-up.
Oh shit.
He jumped that shark too???
Well I heard he used to be a pretty quick pizza delivery guy at one time.
