Parents TV Council Takes Aim At Tonight's Joan Rivers' Roast On Comedy Central

Callss For Cable Choice, Warns Of Likely Explicit Dialog, Innuendo

Cable a la carte fan Parents Television Council is hitching its latest call for "cable choice" to the upcoming Comedy Central roast of Joan Rivers Aug. 9.

In an advisory to its members, it warns that the show will likely contain explicit dialog and innuendo, though it does point out as part of the warning that a preview of the show on the Comedy Central Web site contains the parental warning: "Explicit Language, Viewer Discretion Advised."

"This type of show is one of the main reasons why consumers want the ability to choose and pay for only the cable networks they want through some form of cable choice," said PTC President Tim Winter in announcing the member warning.

PTC also plans to contact all the show's sponsors "if the content of this year's broadcast comes even close to that of prior years."

The Comedy Central roasts are raunchy and ribald, but, according to a veteran of the Friar's Club roasts, on which the Comedy Central roast is patterned (the channel broadcast a number of Friar's roasts before launching its own franchise), the Comedy Central versions are actually less raunchy than the originals.

Among the many who have willingly subjected themselves to that Friar's punishment have been Matt Lauer, Drew Carey, Johnny Carson, David Frost, Richard Belzer, and Whoopi Goldberg.

"The roast is designed to appeal to the Comedy Central audience, not the PTC audience and is scheduled accordingly," said Comedy Central spokeswoman Aileen Budow.

The day that Upper East Siders have been waiting for has finally arrived: Hilary Duff has reported to the set to begin shooting her role on "Gossip Girl"!

Hilary Duff

You'll recall that when Season 2 ended, it was graduation time and most of the show's main characters were headed off to college. That's where Duff comes in. The actress/singer plays Olivia Burke, a famous movie star (what a stretch) who attends New York University in hopes of enjoying a traditional college experience.

It's there at NYU that she'll become roomies with Vanessa (Jessica Szohr) and get close to Dan (Penn Badgley), Vanessa's BFF. (Check out how she's looking at him in these photos!)

Hilary Duff

What will Dan's ex, Serena (Blake Lively) -- who went off to Brown University -- say? Will Vanessa approve? It's not clear yet exactly what's going to happen, but you can be sure there's gonna be plenty of drama worth texting to Gossip Girl!

Look for Duff to strut her stuff beginning in Season 3's fourth episode, airing October 5.

Gerard Butler got silly with a giggling Katherine Heigl at the La premiere of The Ugly Truth last night. Katherine showed off her new darker 'do to her Bff T.R. Knight and a few other costars from Grey's Anatomy. She didn't talk about the news of the Emmy nominations. After her year of ghost sex and brain tumors, it may have been surprising to not see her name on the list. Gerard was taking a break from work on The Bounty with Jennifer Aniston, and he opened up on the carpet about how they laugh about all the dating rumors. He had nothing but praise for Jen, as he's apparently quite friendly with many of his leading ladies.

Jennifer Aniston chooses real friends over John Mayer.

Even after John Mayer helped her get all that media whoring attention to her number 1 holiday movie, Marley and Me, he has been demoted to Jen’s B-List New Year’s Eve lineup. Here is more from People.
"While the couple appear to be staying in separate residences, their places are just a short drive away – and are connected by a private beach perfect for long walks at sunset.
Aniston is making a tradition of spending the holidays with the Arquettes, having spent a festive night out with them at Mastro’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills on Christmas Eve."
So basically, if nothing better comes up, she calls John. I wonder if he will leave the Cabo strip clubs immediately when she calls? I wouldn’t. I’d make her wait. But that’s just me and I am not a nice guy. Particularly to hot starlets. I mean, I get them all the time also, John.
