It happens sometimes. Things fall through the cracks.
Especially when staffs are being downsized as such an extreme rate. So the version of the daily TV Eye column meant to be sent to other papers on the wire (can you imagine? Other papers use it) was the one run in the Courant, which is meant to point out more of the local references.
Today there were a half dozen of them; half were about where you could see new daytime shows, which local stations put on without any promotion or certainly any notice to the press; the others were of more local interest.
Such as the three guys from Connecticut - Rob Lavasseur from East Hartford, Dan Olowski from Woodbridge and Nick Manciero from Bethany who got to hang out with "American Idol" runner-up turned country star Kellie Pickler, who was one of three hosts of tonight's: Country's Night to Rock" on ABC.
We also noticed that the Oscar-nominated documentary about a beauty pageant in a Colombian women's prison, "La Corona," premiering on HBO Latino tonight, is from a Wesleyan grad, Isabel Vega.
Finally, there was a regional shout-out, too, to Rachal Maddow, the Northamptonite turned talk show host turned newest star of primetime MSNBC. Let's hope things work better there than they do sometimes here.
