Casey Anthony Civil Trials Discussion

[CurlyGirl]

Dr Voss was definitely fascinating. And Yuri was definitely hot. Love 'em both!I don't know how you Californians live way over there, 3 hours behind us. lol

Oh yeah...who mentioned the dumb juror? (Can't look back at posts on my laptop.) Jennifer Ford? Yes, I DO think she's fascinating...it's fascinating to see that our jury system is at the mercy of ditzes whose only qualification is having a driver's license.

I mentioned the dumb juror! Haha! It would be fascinating how she and the other 11 jurors came up with that lame-o decision!!!

Anyway, I'm still hoping it's Belvin and not smarmy HoseA!

So far:
The guys from Modern Family (OK...nice guys.)
Simon Cowell (Nothing new. Oh wait...he eats breakfast at noon...all sorts of healthy stuff, but still smokes. That was fascinating! NOT!)
Kardashians (Yikes, they ARE a trashy bunch! And so PROUD of it! Ick!)
Herman Cain...nothing new there, except he sang. Not bad, but...

Back to my fridge...fascinating what I found in there! lol

I have two shows taping on the DVR which means I have to go upstairs to watch something else. I figure that the last person won't be discussed til close to 10:30, 10:45. That's when I'll go upstairs and tune in. American Horror Story is more interesting to me at this point.

It's 10:50PM. Where are you Mare? I'm not watching and was relying on you for an update.

Katy Perry...I really knew nothing about her before, except that she was married to Russell Brand, who I also know little about. She seems like a regular person, and that's a little fascinating. lol I even liked her pink hair.
Derek Jeter...my mind wandered. I didn't catch a lot of it. He's . But then, I'm a Red Sox fan.
Donald Trump. :yawn: Is his hair really a fascinating mystery?? And the rest was the same old, same old Donald Trump/Barbara Walters...nothing new.
Amanda Knox...this one was the only one I was really interested in, but it was nothing new, and no actual interview with her.
Pippa Middleton...Pippa's butt, clothes, style. No interview. (I hate comments like "the world was obsessed with Pippa", when it's really THE MEDIA is obsessed.)

RI. It's 10:53 and there's a commercial. I guess there won't be any deep delving into this most fascinating person!

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

And the most fascinating person of 2011 is...

Steve Jobs. The rule that was broken is the person must be living.

 

[castmember19]

I get why it's Steve Jobs... I'm still kind of disappointed that it wasn't someone related to the case, but I figured it wouldn't be. I'm more disappointed that there was no actual interview with Amanda Knox!

Thank you for posting!

I don't find the people she picks to be even remotely fascinating but as long as it isn't Casey, I'm happy.

No way was Letterman writing Steve Jobs.

Me too, on all counts. But I give Amanda Knox a lot of credit for staying out of the public eye for now. A girl WAS murdered and while I personally don't think that she had anything to do with it, I think she's not only doing what's most important...being with her family...I also think she's doing what's most respectful to the victim's family. Unlike when Casey Anthony was acquitted, and her defense team celebrated in that public obnoxious manner (middle finger and all, courtesy of Cheney Mason). I think not turning into a "star" now is the best thing for Amanda Knox. Perhaps when there's more distance from her conviction being overturned, she'll speak. But maybe not. Perhaps the reason she's laying low is that they still might re-charge her...is that still a possibility? Haven't kept up with that since she returned home.

I know! One thing about David Letterman writing anything was that he did it rather openly, so that people (like us! lol) could kind of sort of see, and I swear, he did write Casey Anthony.

 

[Kurby]

Just thought I'd post this so you guys and see my girls in my siggy

Nicole is almost 6 months (can you believe that???). And doing wonderfully

. Merry christmas everyone

 

[usnuzuloose]

Oh Kirby they are both beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

 

[joviroxx]

Yuri! Oh wait, this wasn't "hottest" it was most fascinating. I found Dr. Voss fascinating!

Now HE is fascinating! I him!

So far:
The guys from Modern Family (OK...nice guys.)
Simon Cowell (Nothing new. Oh wait...he eats breakfast at noon...all sorts of healthy stuff, but still smokes. That was fascinating! NOT!)

The Kardashians are insipid! Odd bunch!

And the most fascinating person of 2011 is...

Steve Jobs. The rule that was broken is the person must be living.

Well, I gotta say Im a bit underwhelmed. I think I see Jobs and Knox as people who have done fascinating things or gone through fascinating situations but are they, themselves , fascinating? I sound cynical, don't I? LOL

I would have loved to hear an interview with Knox though and I do find Jobs a brilliant man. He truly has redefined life in many ways.

At least it wasn't CA!

Just thought I'd post this so you guys and see my girls in my siggy

Kurby, beautiful pictures! 6 months went by fast! Congrats on your beautiful family!

Ah, it makes me all tingly inside when I see CA isn't getting the love she wants...

Los Angeles-based Scott Sternberg Productions is behind the proposed interview show, which multiple networks have passed on pursuing.
A Los Angeles-based TV producer is shopping the first interview with Casey Anthony, who was acquitted in July of murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Anthony.


The Hollywood Reporter has learned that Scott Sternberg and his Scott Sternberg Productions have been quietly pitching a no-holds-bared interview with Anthony, who has been lying low since being released July 17 after nearly three years in a Florida jail.

Multiple sources say Sternberg is asking between $500,000 and $750,000 to deliver Anthony, a hefty license fee to be sure. According to sources with knowledge of the proposal, networks can choose the interviewer and Scott Sternberg Productions would co-produce the program. But so far, multiple cable networks have declined. Spokespeople for Discovery Communications' TLC and ID confirmed that the networks have passed on the project. A&E Networks, which includes Lifetime and A&E, also has passed, says a spokesperson.

HLN has not been approached, says a network spokesperson, who adds that the cable news network would not pay for an interview with Anthony anyway. MSNBC has also not been pitched the project. But sources at the NBCUniversal-owned cable channel also say they would not pony up for Anthony, who has become the target of national outrage since her acquittal.
In fact, Anthony’s pariah status has already spurred news divisions to publicly disavow the common and age-old practice of licensing personal photos and home video from interview subjects as a fig leaf to paying outright for interviews. And ABC News, CBS News and NBC News all have stated adamantly that they would not pay for an Anthony interview specifically.

Further complicating matters is that while the interview would likely be a ratings hit, it is not likely to be a moneymaker since it would be difficult to get advertisers to support a program that featured Anthony.

“It will get very good ratings,” muses one cable source. “But who would want to put their ads in that kind of show?”

Indeed, sources at MSNBC say that after the network covered July’s verdict, executives there were inundated with thousands of angry e-mails from viewers promising to boycott MSNBC if Anthony were granted a platform.
“The backlash would not be worth it,” says another cable executive.
Sternberg is a veteran TV producer who is behind ID's On the Case With Paula Zahn and Shatner's Raw Nerve on Bio, among others. He declined to comment.

MSNBC recently became the target of criticism for licensing a British documentary for a reported $500,000 about Dr. Conrad Murray. The license fee came with a pre-verdict interview with Michael Jackson’s former doctor, who was convicted of manslaughter last month in the 2009 death of the pop star. The film's producer, U.K.-based October Films, said that Murray was paid only a "contractual notional $1" for his cooperation.
Executors for Jackson’s estate characterized the documentary as “reprehensible” and urged the network not to air it. It was broadcast as planned Nov. 11 and netted MSNBC a win it the demo among cable news competitors in its Friday time slot.

It's safe to say interest in Anthony remains intense almost six months after she walked out of a Florida prison a free woman; the 24-year-old’s furtive movements have been breathlessly chronicled in blog posts that have put her everywhere from Ohio to Puerto Rico to holed up on Geraldo Rivera’s yacht.

HLN – with coverage punctuated by Nancy Grace’s railings against the “tot mom” – posted record ratings for its wall-to-wall coverage of the trial, recording its best ratings ever July 5 when more than 5 million viewers tuned in for the verdict.

And Lifetime is in the early stages of development on a potential television movie based on retired prosecutor Jeff Ashton’s recently released book, Imperfect Justice: Prosecuting Casey Anthony. The book, which chronicles the three-year trial, shot to the top of the sales list at BarnesandNobles.com shortly after it was announced in August. But Lifetime, which has not yet given a green light to the film, has stressed that the potential project would be told from the point-of-view of prosecutors, not Anthony.

Good to read that! Thanks for posting.

And Kurby...beautiful pictures of a beautiful family! I can't believe your little sweetheart is 6 months old already.

 

[CurlyGirl]

Your girls are adorable! But how can it be six months already, Kurby? Wow -- where has the time gone! It seems like yesterday that we were in the midst of not only the CA trial, but your pregnancy as well!

I was just telling some of my friends that I really need a good trial to come up because I miss the entertainment that CA's trial offered!

 

[usnuzuloose]

Kurby you killed me by being in labor and still dissing! Your amazing! I miss everyone.
