Are You Getting Tired of Competition Dance Shows?
So You Think You Can Dance is now in full swing, and Dancing With the Stars is nearing its season end, but it looks like there won't be any time of the year when you have to go without a dance competition show. It's just been announced that Kathy Griffin has signed on to host Let's Dance, where stars re-enact famous dance routines from pop culture. While it sounds kind of awesome, I feel overloaded with similar news, since Oxygen has just given its competition reality show Dance Your Ass Off a new season.

What to Download: New Music on iTunes
Tuesdays are big in entertainment-ville: Not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores, including iTunes. So I take a spin through each week's iTunes music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download. You may have heard that Coldplay's new album is out today (I reviewed here) and you can also sample the new Wolf Parade album before you download it.
TV Tonight: The D-List and the A-List on Bravo
Tonight brings a double dose of Kathy Griffin to our TVs, as she first launches another season of celebrity bottom-feeding with the premiere of My Life on the D-List on Bravo, then rockets to the top of the heap to host the network's first-annual A-List Awards.
I've said it before: Griffin is a love-her or hate-her kind of comedian, and as one who trends more toward love, I'm totally looking forward to the fourth season of D-List. This season will find her opening the Oprah-inspired Kathy Griffin Leadership Academy and officiating at a wedding, among other things — and, come on, you've got to be a little curious about how that ceremony turned out.

TV Tonight: Kathy Griffin, "Straight to Hell"
Kathy Griffin is a pretty divisive comedian, so if you don't like her, you might want to just skip down to the next post. For the rest of you, though, you'll want to get your TiVos ready for tonight, when Griffin's newest stand-up special, "Straight to Hell," premieres at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
