Vinny Guadagnino from ‘Jersey Shore’ Leaves The House

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 2nd, 2011

Sources are reporting Vinny Guadagnino left the Jersey Shore house late last night, and he’s not coming back. Apparently Vinny got into an argument with another cast member, and bolted.

TMZ reports that sources also say Vinny had been feeling stressed out, and whatever happened last night could have been the final straw.

TMZ spoke with executive producer Sally Ann Salsano, who said, “We do not comment on the production of the show.”

We would be upset if Vinny has indeed left the show as he seems like the most level headed person on the cast (which isn’t saying much). Perhaps he has finally reached his maximum Snooki intake, and needed to get out of the house. Seems reasonable. If we had to live with Snooki, we would have shot ourselves already.

Laurence Fishburne Leaving CSI

Posted by Christian Allaire on June 8th, 2011

Laurence Fishburne is leaving ‘CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,’ reports CTV.

Joining the show midway through the 2008-09 season as Dr. Raymond Langston, Fishburne reportedly won’t be back on the crime drama this fall, says a source.

The source spoke anonymously on Tuesday because the announcement has not been officially announced, revealing that the show’s producers anticipated the leave as Fishburne’s movie career has always been his primary focus.

The show will return for its 12th season this fall, and still continues to rank among the 20 top-rated shows on television.

I always though Fishburne was better than television. No offence to TV actors, but he is just such a great actor and has such screen presence, that it’s time for him to focus on films again. Let’s do another ‘Matrix,’ yeah?

Meredith Vieira Leaves ‘The Today Show’

Posted by Christian Allaire on May 9th, 2011

It’s a sad day for morning television.

‘The Today Show’ co-host Meredith Vieira is leaving after five years. As her voice quivered and as she fought back tears, Vieira made the announcement today, saying “I’ve decided to leave ‘Today’ in June.”

Vieira took the co-host seat next to Matt Lauer five years ago, replacing Katie Couric.

Meredith says she made the decision “after months of personal reflection and private conversations with my family and friends.”

She added, “I’m really sad because … for the past 10 years this has been my second home.”

Vieira says she wanted to spend more time with her husband, Richard, and her kids. The famous television personality, who also hosts ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire,’  noted “I really hope to stay with the NBC family … that is my goal.”

Lauer said Vieira “has brought class and dignity and talent and a joy of life to this show for the last five years.”

Vieira will be replaced by Ann Curry.

All the women of ‘Today’ keep leaving, yet Lauer remains. I wonder if he’s the problem. Or maybe he just really loves his job. I would, if I was in his position! I wish Vieira the best in whatever she decides to take on next.

Robin Quivers Leaving Howard Stern?

Posted by andPOP Staff on May 7th, 2011

There are two women who are the most important in Howard Stern’s life, his wife Beth and his co-host Robin Quivers. Unfortunately Robin has indicated her relationship with Howard may be coming to an end.

In an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com, Quivers revealed she might be saying goodbye to the man who helped make her a household name.

“I love to do radio and television and I’ve always wanted my own television show, so I’ve been putting out feelers for those kinds of things,” said Quivers, 58, told the website. “(I could) express myself in ways that I don’t necessarily get to express myself on our show.”

“It will be like a talk show, but with subjects that I’d be interested in. I think I have some interesting things to say and I don’t think anybody out there is saying them,” she added.

The two radio personalities have worked together since 1981 when they met in Washington. If Robin leaves, Howard’s show will certainly be different. Will his show last without Robin?

Mary Hart Leaving ‘Entertainment Tonight’

Posted by andPOP Staff on August 5th, 2010

An industry veteran is saying goodbye. Long time “Entertainment Tonight” anchor Mary Hart will be leaving the show after nearly 30 years. Mary joined the show in 1982 and will end her reign after the 30th season, which begins September 13.

“I’ve had the privilege of spending 29 years doing something I love — how often does that happen?” she said in a statement Thursday.”I only meant to be at ‘ET’ for three years, suddenly it’s almost 30!”

“It will certainly be with mixed sentiments that I say ‘goodbye’ at the end of the season, but it will definitely be with a sense of celebration … 30 years of Entertainment Tonight, are you kidding me?” she said. “That’s an accomplishment and something I’m very proud of!”

There has been no announcement on who will be replacing Hart.

Steve Carell To Leave ‘The Office’ To Spend More Time With Family

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 27th, 2010

Steve Carell will be leaving his post as Michael Scott on NBC’s hit show “The Office” after the upcoming season. When asked last night by Craig Ferguson why he was leaving, Carell explained he didn’t know the answer. He later rebuffed saying it was to spend more time with his family.

“Honestly, to spend more time with my family,” said the actor. Ferguson replied, “That’s usually what politicians say when they’re caught doing something with their pee-pees … He says, ‘Well, I’m retiring, but not because of what you think — just to spend a little more time with my family.’

Definitely the show will be different without the legendary Michael Scott. Anybody have any views on how writers will get rid of the Michael Scott character?

Steve Carell Saying Goodbye to Michael Scott and ‘The Office’

Posted by andPOP Staff on June 29th, 2010

It’s been a long road for Steve Carell and Michael Scott, but their time on “The Office” looks like it’s coming to an end.

E! News reports Carell has confirmed he will be leaving the NBC sitcom after Season 7. He made these comments at the red carpet premiere for “Despicable Me.”

“I just think it’s time,” Carell said on the red carpet. “I want to fulfill my contract. When I first signed on I had a contract for seven seasons, and this coming year is my seventh. I just thought it was time for my character to go.”

Now can the show continue without Michael Scott? Isn’t it like Seinfeld without Jerry Seinfeld?

“It doesn’t certainly mean the end of the show. I think it’s just a dynamic change to the show, which could be a good thing, actually. Add some new life and some new energy…I see it as a positive in general for the show,” Carell said.

So who will replace Michael Scott as the Regional Manager of Dunder Mifflin Infinity? Should they hire (or cast) someone new? Or promote within?

Sandra Bullock Leaving Hollywood and Jesse James Behind

Posted by andPOP Staff on May 6th, 2010

That’s it for Sandra Bullock and Los Angeles. The actress has decided that the city is too fake and she wants to escape her husband’s girlfriends and all the gossip.

“Sandra hates the fakeness of Hollywood and doesn’t want to raise her little boy in that environment,” a friend of the actress tells PopEater.

“The whole place is so toxic for her that she just wants to get away and start over. Jesse’s businesses are in LA and the thought of what went on inside that building makes Sandra sick. Plus, Jesse’s tattooed mistress, Bombshell McGee, is in Los Angeles trying to capitalize on her 15 minutes of fame. It’s best for Sandra to sell her house and get away from these people.”

Rumor has it Sandra may go to her beloved Austin, Texas home and also an old Victorian home she bought in New Orleans. The friend also suggest that she may never make another movie again, but devote her time to her new son.

Ebert and Roeper Say Farewell

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 22nd, 2008

Say goodbye to “Ebert and Roeper at the Movies.”

Both of the famed film critics will not be renewing their contracts with the show because Disney has decided to take it in a different direction.

Roeper released a statement Sunday, explaining that “Several months ago, Disney offered to extend my contract, which expires at the conclusion of the 2007-08 season. I opted to wait. Much transpired after that behind the scenes, but an agreement was never reached, and we are all moving on.”

Ebert followed suit yesterday, announcing his departure on the Chicago Sun Times web site.

He said that though there would be changes, the trademark “thumbs up” rating system would continue.

According to the TV Guide’s “Ask Ausiello,” the show’s producers are now looking for a new actor “in his late twenties to early thirties to play Ray Santoro, a ‘handsome, smart and athletic’ CSI who transfers from Henderson to join the graveyard shift at the Las Vegas crime lab.”
