Interview with Kelly Rutherford of "Gossip Girl" and "Melrose Place" from Thomas Attila Lewis on Vimeo

13 days ago we wrote about the Parents Television Council boycottof The CW because of advertising for "Gossip Girl" and at Monday's launch party for Mark Liddell's "Exposed: 10 Years in Hollywood" we grabbed the opportunity to ask "Gossip Girl"'s Kelly Rutherford (aka Lily van der Woodsen) about the boycott - please watch the above video for her thoughts. [Also, what a thrill to talk to Megan from the original "Melrose Place"!]

Today you (yes you!) have access to an advance screening of A&E's "Steven Seagal Lawman". At 5pm today go the the A&E advance screening webpage to check out the show two weeks before the program begins airing. We've heard some people would consider committing some misdemeanors for the chance of being arrested by Seagal but you'd have to go to the jurisdiction of Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office in Louisiana. In the meantime, watch him online.

If you are complete weather nerds like we are you will appreciate The Weather Channel's "Wake Up With Al" which airs at 7am Pacific. Al Roker does bring some news and pop-culture elements to the show (he is Al Roker, after all) and tomorrow he will be broadcasting from Washington D.C.'s “NEWSEUM” which will be celebrating the opening of its Tim Russert exhibit in honor of the TV newsman.
