As far as I'm concerned, New Year's Eve isn't New Year's Eve without Dick Clark. I hope he's better in time!

On the other hand, I applauded the absense of Joan and Melissa Rivers at the Emmys this year. Looks like my glee is short-lived. Ugh. Could they be more obnoxious?

You Said

Question: Could they be more obnoxious?

Answer: No.

Joan Rivers, to her credit, at least earned a career in entertainment. She was a popular female comedian at a time when women did not flourish in stand-up. Even though I think her red-carpet gig is dumb, at least she made her bones.

Her daughter, however, only got there because she is Joan Rivers' daughter. I hate it when talent-free hacks get treated like celebrity.
