McCain Returns to Letterman

After weeks of one sided on-air feud, John McCain will appear on CBS's Late Show starring David Letterman. McCain was scheduled to appear on September 24th, when he suddenly suspended his campaign to return to Washington and work on the economic crisis. He bowed out of the Late Show appearance, but instead of returning immediately to Washington, he was interviewed by Katie Couric. Letterman saw it as a snub, and began to poke fun of McCain. However, all is now fine between the two, as McCain will appear on the show Thursday.

You may ask yourself, "What's so scary about this relatively good looking man?"

The scary fact is that he is Kenny Rogers. Yes. Kenny Rogers. The same Kenny Rogers who always looked like this. But now he looks like that. Why? Hmmmm.

Rosie O'Donnell is coming back to television as the host of NBC's Rosie's Variety Show. The show will air on November 26th - the night before Thanksgiving - and if ratings are good the show will be added to NBC's regular primetime line up.

O'Donnell hosted her own daytime show from 1996-2001, and was a co-host of The View from 2006-07.
