I haven't seen the show yet (comes on at 6PT) and the transcript doesn't mention it, but no doubt a holdover from "Famous Names Week".

I think we've established before that Toms River is Philadelphia territory, not WE® territory.

So far, so good.

It's borderline--nearly equidistant between NYC and Philly. I'd say they still get the NY channels in Toms River (certainly on cable, if not by antenna) so he still gets his WE status.

They didn't mention "Famous Names Week" on yesterday's show, but his name (and what followed from that, like girls sending him photos and underwear) was all they chatted about. He wasn't displaying much personality or energy during the Q&A, IMHO.

The last item of this column is a promo for Sean's carryover appearance. It also has a biographical detail that they didn't have time to talk about on yesterday's show, what with all the much more important chit-chat about P. Diddy: He's a mechanical engineering student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

C'mon, P Diddy, couldn't you get that high winds are associated with hurricanes, not any of the others?

All I could think about while watching him was how much he reminded me of a mute, non-evil squirrel.

Toms River gets both NYC and Philly channels except NBC in Philly for some reason.
