NPH CALLED FAMED SOAP ACTOR "A D-BAG!"

Eric Braeden, 69, the CBS soap actor "canceled a cameo appearance" on How I met Your Mother, causing Barney to awesomely refer to him as used condom.

"The actor, (Robin's dad), agreed to a cameo, then last night bailed,
saying the part wasn't 'substantial' enough," NPH said through his twitter account, "to more than 1 million followers. We've recast with Ray Wise, a
fantastic actor who makes any part 'substantial.' Super excited to
welcome him to the family!"

However Braeden stated, he left abruptly when he found out his part had been cut "just before the taping, which he deemed unreasonable as he is currently recovering
from hip surgery."

He was so exhausted from recovery that, "I was not about appear on a show for two lines, because that's what it amounted to." Braeden whent so far as to call the openly gay acTOR was being "overdramatic."

"His choice of words bothered me. It seems to me like a young
whippersnapper, having seen himself on a few covers, who's received a
few awards, is now suddenly suffering from the first signs of hubris,"
Braeden explained.

After Harris was briefed on Braeden's recent surgery, he maned up and apologized
via Twitter, to end the feud before futher escalatation.

"Now I feel bad for the D-bag comment. Don't know the guy personally,"
Harris typed. "I'm just fiercely protective of our show."

RANT:WHY NOT MOVE SOAPS TO LATE NIGHT TV, TO BREAK THE JUGGER-
NAUT OF WHITE GUYS BEHIND DESKS?

Buzzer Blog and Extra reported that forgettable,but long running soap Guiding Light was being cancelled. I was thinking why not move the genre to 11 PM-2 AM on the CW,Fox and ABC to finally give the audience, some damn variety.

The producers can increase the pacing, so one plot point doesn't take 18 months to develop- to its climax. They could increase the sex and violence,because from Midnight to 6AM, there is relaxed FCC regs-since the kids are finally asleep.

This could help bored,comic overloaded male viewers or frisky ladies craving- a little romance at those hours. Instead of a another smirking,aging frat boy- whose not half as funny as he thinks he is (That means you Carson Daly!)

Finally, why are all these guys white and male? Have we learned nothing from the legend Arsenio Hall here in the Obama era??

Later.
