INFOTAINMENT FOR THE PEOPLE OF EARTH SINCE 2006

WeekEnder: October 29-November 4

ANNA NICOLE SMITH EXCLUSIVE
"Entertainment Tonight" and "The Insider" managed to score the first interview with Anna Nicole Smith and are screwing it up big time. The sister shows share a big story every sweeps month. Ealier this year, it was Tanya Harding and the Buttafuocos. For November sweeps, ET's Mark Steines and THE INSIDER's Lara Spencer flew to the Bahamas to talk to Anna Nicole for the first time since her son died unexpectedly.


Instead of devoting entire shows to what could have been a very interesting interview, they're exploiting Anna Nicole's pain by stretching the interview out over several days and teasing it endlessly. This super-saturation is as tasteless as it is boring. Each show is calling their interview an "exclusive." If more than one show has it, it can't be an exclusive. Looks like Anna Nicole made out best on this one. Rumor has it she was paid as much as $1 million for the semi-exclusive.

The interview itself is just plain depressing. Anna Nicole constantly breaks down as she leans on Howard K. Stern. She says if not for Stern and her new baby, she would not want to be alive. Smith also says that she worries about whether or not her son is lost without her on the other side.
