Today's Blind Items
This aging, former B list television actor who used to be on a very hit show, is now a C despite working almost constantly since that hit show went off the air. Or is it? Our actor is in the middle of a divorce to his long term wife. The reason? Well the affair he has been having for the past year with a lingerie model/actress and her live in lingerie model girlfriend probably had a lot to do with it.
Kevin Dillon?
ReplyDeleteIsn't he in the middle of a divorce?
Someone from M.A.S.H? Alda?
ReplyDeleteBITE YOUR TONGUE, RQ!!! ALDA IS A-LIST NOW AND FOREVER!!!!!!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm confused. The show is or isn't off the air?
ReplyDeleteBenjamin Bratt just sold a lot of property for no stated reason.
ReplyDeleteBradley Whitford?
ReplyDeleteStacy - excellent guess!
ReplyDeleteI like the Bradley guess.
ReplyDeleteso was the show going to be cancelled but now it may not be?? confused here.
ReplyDeleteJason Alexander
ReplyDeleteBratt is divorcing?? why no one says me it?!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I do like the BBratt guess, though. But they seem like such an awesome, in-love couple.
ReplyDeleteDon't know anything about Tim Allen's marital sitch.
Ok, this might make me superficial, but having an affair with a hot lesbian lingerie model and her roommate sounds kinda hot. And it's been going on for a year? Good lord. I'm gay but I don't think even I could withstand that.
ReplyDeleteI disapprove of cheating, though. I hope he and his wife had already separated before the steamy menage a trois commenced.
Noah Wily??
ReplyDeleteLove your comment, Barton!
ReplyDeleteThis should be fairly easy to narrow down. "Lingerie model/actress" = someone who models for Victoria's Secret and acts on the side. Then find out if that actress has had any projects with a B-List TV actor.
ReplyDeleteKelsey Grammer??
ReplyDelete@Special MOM = Anyone (save for Kirstie Alley) from the Cheers franchise is always A-List.
ReplyDeleteTim's only been married since 06.
ReplyDeleteKevin Dillon also got married in 06 so I wouldn't say that's a long marriage.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Corbin Bernsen??
ReplyDeleteFYI, Benjamin got married in 02. Maybe by H'weird standards that's a long marriage, but I wouldn't think so.
ReplyDeleteOh, damn, I was gonna pin it on Abe Vigoda, but he's a widower..... :-/
ReplyDeleteThe show is now off the air, and the actor continues to work on other projects.
ReplyDeleteIt can't be Bratt, 'cause Law & Order is still on, and that show where he played a drug counselor was far from a hit.
Kevin Dillon is still on Entourage, isn't he?
Noah Wiley seems like a good guess, but I don't know...
Ooh, Corbin Bernsen!
ReplyDeleteWylie married in 2000
ReplyDeleteWhitford in 92
Kelsey in 97
Corbin in 88
Wow. Haven't a clue, but don't ever complain about Ted C's blind-writing (pun intended) skills again!
ReplyDeleteI'm not stupid, but I gotta re-read this one. Again.
And again.
Ooooh, Ted Danson? (married since 95)
ReplyDeleteOK, just for funsies: Kirk Cameron (because he's such a goody-two-shoes LOL)
ReplyDeleteIf your're working on a TV show does that make you a "B"? Because Corbin Bernsen's been working on Psych (hilarious show), so I think he's still B-list.
ReplyDeleteNoah Wylie is getting a divorce, was on ER and did a series on USA. Bradley Whitford - isn't he already divorced from Jane Kaczmerek?
I don't know....
What if its someone from L&O: Crimina; Intent. The show was cancelled but brought back by TNT
ReplyDeleteBlair Underwood. Married since 1994, was on L.A. Law and works steadily.
ReplyDeleteGeez Mooshki! Alright alright, I retract my Alda guess and am pitching in with the Danson guess, but I hope it's not true. I really like Steenburgen.
ReplyDeleteThis could also be Wyle.
Could the "Or is it?" mean that the hit show has lots of reruns still showing?
ReplyDeleteMaybe Will from Will and Grace? Home Improvement, Friends, and Seinfeld are always on rerun also!
Corbin is definitely C-List now. He is a supporting character with minimal screentime in a basic cable show. Before this he was doing Celebrity Mole and the like. The leads in Psych would be B-List.
ReplyDeleteI just don't know if he is getting divorced...
Hi All,
ReplyDeleteI just read the blind differently. Maybe there is a remake of an old show currently on i.e. Melrose Place or 90210. One of the cast members from the original series could be getting divorced.
Royal Eduardo has a good point - L&O CI is off network, but on cable...
ReplyDeleteOh interesting! I totallly missed the "Or is it?"
ReplyDeleteHas to be a remake?
...so maybe something like that.
ReplyDeleteLOL, RQ. Remember when Danson & Steenburgen got married and Bill Clinton warned him not to mess up with her? You don't want the President of the United States pissed at you. :)
ReplyDeleteWhy did I think Tom Selleck?
ReplyDeleteGuess: Ian Zierning?
ReplyDelete@Mooshki - I guess no one gave Bill the same warning about Hilary?
ReplyDeleteMatthew Fox? He was on Party of Five and is on Lost...
ReplyDeleteThere's been a lot of press recently about his affair with a stripper - not sure if she is also a lingerie model with a live in girlfriend - but doesn't seem like such a stretch..
Also, the "Or is it" could be a reference to "Lost" and all of the unanswered questions and plot twists.
By the way, I know that "Lost "is still on the air - but it is supposed to be the last season...so I thought maybe it counted since they're done filming..
ReplyDeleteJust a guess..
I must be the only person who read this blind's "Or is it?" as suggesting that the plotline of the very hit show that went off the air is similar to the situation the actor finds himself in now. Three's Company popped into mind immediately but is the only show that remotely resembles the scenario of a man and two women (much less a married man having an affair with a lingerie model and her live-in girlfriend). That might have worked had John Ritter still been around.
ReplyDelete@RQ Who would have given him the warning? There isn't anyone scarier than Hilary. ;)
ReplyDeleteDear God,
ReplyDeletePlease, if you have any love for me left, let it be Blair Underwood and let me conveniently find him on my doorstep tomorrow. Thank you.
xoxo,
SFG
Breaking news: Vancouver police think they found the body of Andrew Koenig in Stanley Park :-(
ReplyDeleteAww, man. Sad for the Koenig family, if true.
ReplyDeleteTony Danza?
ReplyDeleteIt's true, it came from CNN. So sad.
ReplyDelete"I must be the only person who read this blind's "Or is it?" as suggesting that the plotline of the very hit show that went off the air is similar to the situation the actor finds himself in now."
ReplyDeleteBingo - now who is it that had a plot line like that besides Three's Company?
@Rocketqueen - you whine incessantly in the comments about people bringing up politics on this board, and then you do what a typical right winger does - you Clinton bash. I don't want to see your whiny ass complaints about what people say on this site again.
ReplyDeleteWhat about one of the "Friends" guys?
ReplyDeleteWhat about the guy Matthew Fox? This totally sounds like him...
ReplyDeleteI think I got it! Google lingerie model/actress & Caprice Bourret comes up - she was on The Surreal Life (loved that show - isn't it time for another z list train wreck season?). Checked imdb; she's in Gumball 3000 a reality race series with, amongst others, DAVID HASSELHOFF!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Hoff ftw!!!
Jason Priestly from 90210 duh
ReplyDeleteNoah Wylie
ReplyDeleteI'm with Mike, Noah Wylie ftw!
ReplyDeletefor some reason, I thought of Ashton Kutcher, but I guess Demi doesn't count as a "long term wife" does she?
ReplyDeleteI'm no good at these blinds.
I think it's Kelsey Grammar. It says "Or is it?" Well, he is on reruns with Frasier and was on the very hit show, "Cheers." He works constantly with his latest show having JUST been cancelled and he does voice overs. I know that he wasn't upset the last show went off the air because he had a pilot he had just done and he sounded confident about that one.
ReplyDeleteI think 'or is it' means that its in reruns. definitely not the hoff, he's separated at the least and that the marriage is on the rocks is not a secret.
ReplyDeleteother than that, I got nuttin'.
I think if it was Ted Danson, Enty would have had to have mentioned that the wife is an actress (and an Oscar winner!)
ReplyDeleteKelsey Grammer
Noah Wyle
Tim Allen
Ray Romano (nooooo!)
@Melinda: RocketQueen is pretty liberal--I think you might have misread what she wrote. She's just joking around about Clinton, not bashing him, I think.
ReplyDeleteI would vote for Kelsey Grammar, because he's a skank. Second marriage (to a stripper) was interrupted by the birth of a daughter by another woman. His current marriage is to a former Playboy model. That's not to say that strippers and Playboy models mean that the husband is a skank, but I think that he has no respect for women and is completely the type to have an affair with a model and her lesbian gf/roommate. The only question I have is why the lingerie model would see anything in HIM.
What about Joey from friends?
ReplyDeleteConan! His hit Tonight Show is off the air - or is it now thanks to Leno.
ReplyDeleteSorry, had to throw a huge stretch in the mix.
Melinda, I brought up Clinton first, and RQ & I were just joking around about husbands getting in trouble for cheating, not saying anything about politics.
ReplyDeleteTed Danson was the biggest star in television, the highest paid actor for a few years. He is former A-list, for sure!
ReplyDeleteI find the Hasselhoff guess intriguing, because there's a new "Knight Rider" that's set to premier soon, right?
I think the "Or is it?" could mean EITHER there's a remake OR the show has never left the air due to re-runs. Unfortunately, all the Friends, Cheers, and Seinfeld casts are ALL former A-list. All the men from Gilligan's Island are dead, so I think this might be Andy Griffith.
"Knight Rider" already failed I think. but recently. edit.
ReplyDeleteLol!! Y'know what, Melinda, remove your own head from your ass. I'm sorry to inform you that you have clearly confused me with someone else since I avoid political discussions on this site. Not only that, but I am a huge Clinton fan and was rooting for Hilary over Obama. Not that I had a say...since I'm Canadian. Apology accepted.
ReplyDeleteNoah Wily??

Love your comment, Barton!
Somehow, I doubt that Barton is really gay.
Late to the party, but like the Noah Wily guess.
ReplyDeleteWilliam Shatner comes to mind..
ReplyDeleteit is ray romano...married since 87...show has been off the air for a while, but not (syndicated 2-6 times a night on tbs among other stations so it seems like it is on everytime you turn on the TV)... steady work with voice overs, not very good movies,guest appareances as "himself", etc. Worked out with Tiger's swing coach for a new show a year ago...Tiger wasn't caught a year ago, so he probably hung out (went out trolling with him...lingere model 3-some? almost enough to make Tiger jealous)..Just cancelled out of a Pro-AM golf outing for family reasons...
ReplyDeleteIts Beautiful Sorta...
but NOT...N..O..T
wow, Melinda, you are O.C. Out of control. *said in a way Wisconsin-ish accent*
ReplyDeleteVery interesting about Romano. I really have nothing with this one..
ReplyDelete@libby
ReplyDeleteRussell Johnson is very much alive. Its down to the Professor, Mary Ann and the one who still thinks she was the star of the show--but won't talk about "that project".
Another pretty man that went BLOOMP and got Orson Welles fat later in life. Mid-age spread is just sad.
@wildcat...
ReplyDeleteRomano must have picked up bad habits from Scott Bakula.
I still think Tiger Wood would have been less of a ho if his dad hadn't made getting white sluts a staple perk for him when his son played but hanging around Michael Jordan and several other major league athletes who are also big sluts and get away with it added fuel to the "I think I am the exception because I know how to play with balls"
Oh and my guess is Bradley Whitford (the guy from West Wing and Revenge of the Nerds 2, not the one from Aerosmith)
ReplyDelete"in the middle" Malcolm in the Middle, his (soon-to-be-ex) wife's big show
Divorce was announced June 19, '09 so 8 months is short but she filed for full custody of their three kids which is just the start of some epic divorce battles.
BW has had projects on big screen and small every year since WW went off in 1996.
Interesting quote from him that search popped up:
Having an affair with an intern is just an incredibly stupid thing to do. ~Bradley Whitford
http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/b/bradley_whitford.html
And redoing Cabin in the Woods in 3D while getting fat and doing lower-tier projects does turn a "recognizable face" previously seen weekly from B to C.
ReplyDelete@Brainy don't you think the Blind would have mentioned the wife being on a long running hit show? And that Jane Kaczmarek is more recognizable (famous) than him? These people are to obscure to guess with out more clues (or inside knowledge).
ReplyDeleteIf it is him I don't care about it -with the exception that I hope she gets full custody because he is a skank.
I loved the first Cabin in the Woods. :)
ReplyDeleteJeez, Libby, until your second comment I forgot that Knight Rider had already aired too, and I watched the pilot. LOL, I guess that's what you call forgettable tv. Literally.
Wasn't there a blind revealed previously that was for Kevin James and Ray Ramno. And it definitely called Kevin James A-List. If Kevin James was A-list, I'm thinking Ray Ramano was DEFINITELY A-list while he was on "Everybody Loves Raymond."
ReplyDeleteHere's the Kevin James and Ray Romano blind I referred to: http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2009/07/blind-items-revealed_923.html
ReplyDeleteWhat about David Duchovny? Hasn't his divorce been off-again/on again? And the "X-Files" is still on in re-runs and still alive in movies. And he's worked steadily with movies and "Californication," which this could be a plotline from, not to mention his sex addiction issue...
ReplyDeleteI really like the Jason Alexander guess. They've been married almost 30 years.
ReplyDeleteBrad Garrett anyone?

ReplyDeleteGeeze people! Stop speculating...some of these comments (rumors) could really hurt some of these people! Re: Brad Whitford and ex-wife, Jane K. have 3 young children. She recently did a wonderful interview on the Bonnie Hunt Show (it is online..look it up)....talks about their wedding (shows pictures)their divorce and also talks about what a great guy..and wonderful husband and father Brad was. she even jokes about anyone wanting to fix their daughter up with him! She and He are both class acts...they both requested we respect their privacy during this time...and I, for one , think that's the VERY LEAST we all could do...
ReplyDeleteMelinda, what a true lefty beeyoch! Clintons claim to fame was getting a blowy in the oval office from a chubby girl. HE did that, not a right wing conservative. How can you blame anyone for thinking of him when infidelity is involved. How many Bush hater letters have you written in your life? Maybe you just need to get one.
ReplyDeleteHarry Hamlin.
