My First Guest Tonight is George Gobel

Sarah Palin hosts her first Fox News show Thursday night. Much to the surprise of the people on it.

Update: Fox obliges…

“Real American Stories features uplifting tales about overcoming adversity and we believe Mr. Smith’s interview fit that criteria. However, as it appears that Mr. Smith does not want to be associated with a program that could serve as an inspiration to others, we are cutting his interview from the special and wish him the best with his fledgling acting career.”

Nice dig. Everyone knows a starring gig on an NCIS franchise is a dead end.

And on next week’s show Palin will be “interviewing” Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, the Vladimir Putin (in Russian!), Nicholas Sarkozy, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Paul Simon, and Michael Jackson.

@Serolf Divad:

She can get some dubbed footage of Castro and “interview” him about how much he likes HCR. :)

I liked George Gobel. And he had a now very rare Gibson archtop guitar made for him.

Late update: Toby Keith’s not happy about his canned interview, either…

Keith, who says he’s a registered Democrat, was not told about the usage of a past interview for Palin’s program. “We were never contacted by Fox,” his rep tells Hitfix.”I have no idea what interview it’s taken from.They’re promoting this like it’s a brand new interview. He never sat down with Sarah Palin.”

The news there, of course, is that Toby Keith is a registered Democrat.

@nojo: Is it? I remember him coming out of the blue closet a couple of years ago. I think people just assumed he was a winger because of the feud with the Dixie Chicks and the jingoistic song.

@TJ/ Jamie Sommers /TJ: You’re probably right. I don’t keep up to date on shitkickers.

@nojo:

Speak respectfully of the man that created the brilliant and legendary song “Who’s Your Daddy”. I’ve got my eye on you.

@TJ/ Jamie Sommers /TJ:@nojo: He was a post-9/11 winger, but by 2008 was back with the winning team. Remember his role in Colbert’s Christmas special?

@Tommmcatt Loves The Giant Floating Head: Shitkicker’s not a term of respect? Or are you just looking for an excuse to keep an eye on me?

@nojo: But Crocs instead of chancletas? Are you anticipating some hard-core cooking or gardening?

ADD: It’s 42 degrees in San Fran – WTF is going on?
