It's Not TV Press Tour, It's HBO Press Tour
Today is HBO day at the cable press tour. It would be impolite to say so, since today also featured presentations by AMC, GSN, Sundance and sundry other abbreviations and nouns. But charmed as we were to see the world's greatest cat at the GSN luncheon--to promote the network's airing of the Cat-Minster cat competition, we met last year's winner, an enormous dust mop of a Blue Persian--we were really anticipating HBO's three-hour roadshow this afternoon. Among the news: Entourage and the final episodes of The Sopranos will debut April 8. The Sopranos is not doing a panel, but there will be one for David Milch's John from Cincinnati, a.k.a. The Show They Canceled Deadwood For.
In miscellaneous press tour news:
* Compounding the problems for folks like me who confuse Robert Vaughn with Robert Wagner, the latter will be guest-starring in season 4 of the former's Hu$tle on AMC. Or the other way around.
* I may actually have to start watching Fuse. The music network that actually plays videos signed up a sketch-comedy show from The Whitest Kids U'Know, a Brooklyn comedy troupe whose funny but button-pushing skits you can find in advance on YouTube. Decorum prevents me from embedding "The Hitler Rap" here, but here's one of the more inoffensive bits:
* Finally, at WE's panel for Wife, Mom, Bounty Hunter, the female-wrestler turned bounty hunter said she had to serve in her profession nearly two whole years before someone asked to do a reality show about her.
