• Jon Stewart Announces He Will Leave 'Daily Show' Later This Year

    First we learned that Brian Williams was suspended from "NBC Nightly News," and then a few hours later Jon Stewart announced during a taping that he will be leaving "The Daily Show" later this year. Stewart took over the anchor desk from Craig Kilbourn in 1999 and has used sarcasm and quick wit to win over viewers while holding typical news readers and politicians accountable. His reason for leaving? Stewart explained that he feels "restless" and that the show and fans deserve better than a "restless host."

  • Can Justin Hartley's 'Y&R' Performance Live Up to Gauntlet Thrown Down by Michael Muhney?

    Adam Newman finally returned to "The Young & the Restless" canvas last week by way of Justin Hartley's portrayal. While the character is not fully back in the Genoa City mix, Hartley has had enough interactive scenes to give viewers a feel for what is to come. The actor took over the role, which was recast after Michael Muhney was fired late last year amid a storm of controversy, knowing that he may have a bit of an uphill battle when it comes to winning over fans. Muhney's performance on "Y&R" kept longtime fans glued to their televisions, and after his last scenes finally aired this past January the show's ratings plummeted. Muhney's fans were vocal about how they were not going to support the show once he left it, and then they appeared to back up those words with action. Part of the issue was that Muhney was fired due to allegations of sexual harassment, and then not only were charges not filed, but "Y&R" actually considered rehiring him this past summer, leading many to believe he should never have been cut in the first place.
