George Michael NewsThere’s a nice comment about George Michael in “Eli Stone” keeps the “Faith”:
ABC’s new series “Eli Stone,” from “Brothers and Sisters” creators Greg Berlanti and Marc Guggenheim, had audiences keeping the “Faith” during its premiere episode last night. It has a charming story line played by a stellar and diverse cast, not to mention the highly produced musical number performed by Wham! front man George Michael, which makes this show much more compelling and entertaining than anticipated.
Tony Parsons, who wrote the autobiography of Bare 20 years ago, talks about what George Michael will deliver in his new autobiography in the article, Is George really out to reveal all in new book?
Now there is widespread speculation about exactly what his latest autobiography will reveal. I suspect it will promise much and deliver little. George wants to tell all, because he is a born exhibitionist, but then he always gets cold feet.

We all love George Michael, but is the U.S. ready for George Michael regularly during prime time? Here’s an article that says that George Michael may alienate viewers: Eli Stone” Pilot Thoughts And More Fun Stuff.
The Ugly
Will George Michael sing several times in every episode? I like him as much as the next guy, but it could get tiring pretty quickly. What about viewers who aren’t amongst the George Michael faithful. The writers don’t seem to understand that may alienate viewers who dislike the pop singer. It would be a shame if the show lost fans because George Michael was rammed down their throats. (No pun intended)
Eli Stone is the story of a lawyer who suddenly starts to have hallucinations … of George Michael. It starts out with George Michael singing “Faith” on his coffee table. What’s so fun about the first season of this television show is that George Michael makes multiple appearances. All of the show titles are George Michael or Wham! songs, and many of the musical numbers are also George Michael songs.
Eli Stone stars Jonny Lee Miller, Natasha Henstridge, Loretta Devine, Matt Letscher, Sam Jaeger, and Victor Garber.
The DVD for the first season of Eli Stone (Amazon Ad) is currently available.

Michael tells us that the George Michael biography will be on the Biography channel next week on Thursday, February 7 at 11 p.m. and Friday, February 8, at 3 a.m. Here is the description.
Portrait of the British musical and cultural icon who has sold 67 million albums worldwide and produced over a dozen hits in a career that has spanned more than 25 years. From the time he and a friend formed a high school band and became the duo “Wham!,” Michael’s star has ascended. A meteoric solo career followed on the heels of his band days as audiences fell in love with his distinctive vocals and soulful deliveries. But his temperamental personality has led to professional feuds with record executives and fellow artists, and a strong appetite for drugs, alcohol, and sexual encounters has resulted in multiple scrapes with the law.
Just for fun … with a show of hands (comments) … how many of you think George Michael should fire FanFire, the company running his official fan club?
I ask because I ordered a t-shirt in August 2007, and I am still shirtless. They kept promising that it was backordered and that it would arrive in 3-5 weeks. That was five months ago. A month ago, I e-mailed them to tell them I would like to order a different item (they offered this option to me), and I have never heard a response despite the fact that I have e-mailed them twice since then.
I can’t help but wonder if this company is making George Michael look bad to the people who count the most … the fans.
