...parent company). But The WB's whining is a little disingenuous. "Buffy" is a big hit by the standards of a little network. But it's a niche show nonetheless: It would never go to NBC, ABC or CBS, and if it did, those networks, which need a huge tune-in to keep a show afloat, would either kill or ruin it fast. That leaves Fox - still in the middle zone between the giants and the netlets - and UPN. By The WB's reasoning, then, it would be unethical for "Buffy" to go to any other network that would have...
...Hombres have been fond of performing suite-like tunes in the past. They indulged themselves with a lengthy, multi-sectioned rendition of “Bill’s Q Yvette,” a title which refers to Yvette Summers, the band’s diva and percussionist. After another dynamic solo from Mayfield, the focus was turned to the outstanding sideman of the group, pianist Red Atkins.

The music is a mere afterthought, scattered throughout the self-congratulatory banter, but the high-energy “Every Six Seconds” at the very end shows that at least they can pull off a quality dance tune. “All or Nothing,” their second single, has some decent (non-lipsynched) singing, but the inane repetition of “Giiiirrrrrlllll,” with Jacob moonwalking, earns no points for them...
...commemorate his lasting “thirty years as a solo artist.” Who holds concerts to celebrate their own longevity? Sigh. Michael can try his darndest to turn back the clock, but it’s just going to go on ticking. (I’ll tune in if they promise to have Elizabeth Taylor give an unrehearsed introductory monologue. Her spectacular flub on live TV was the highlight of the Golden Globes...
