.@TheNatalieHall is a singer, too. Let's have some more Christmas carols! #UnwrappingChristmas #OliviasReunion @cindy_busby @hallmarkchannel
As usual, @cindy_busby giving the perfect "What are YOU doing here?" old-boyfriend look. #UnwrappingChristmas #OliviasReunion @hallmarkchannel
Always a thorough delight to see @cindy_busby ... including in person, which I was hugely pleased and fortunate to do at a @hallmarkchannel press event almost exactly a year ago. She's in #UnwrappingChristmas: #OliviasReunion on the channel tonight.

Remembering the great, supremely independent-minded filmmaker #BlakeEdwards ("Breakfast at Tiffany's," "Days of Wine and Roses," "The Pink Panther," "10," "Victor/Victoria") on his birthdate. I've been fortunate and honored to talk about him with his wife, Dame @JulieAndrews.

An expectedly tough coverage morning for @NY1, with many resources well-deployed. @JamieStelter @APaolicelli17 @RogerClark41 @OliviaLeachNews @StefManisero @GuyBrownWeather
.@NY1's @RebeccaGNews literally and commendably thinking on her feet in reporting from the scene of tonight's deadly incident in midtown #NYC.
A big change, reported by @WNYT: Glens Falls's @CoolInsArena will be renamed the #HardingMazzotti Arena, after the much-advertised, Albany-based law firm.
#ChristmasAtSea ends its season on @hallmarkchannel tonight, and though it began more focused on passengers than celebrities, that has evened out nicely. With such personal favorites as @sarahdrew, @theErinCahill and @tyler_hynes on board, it's been a very pleasant watch.

.@cindy_busby is continuing her streak of Christmas movies, and @GAfamilyTV and @PureFlix get her this time. Just announced for later this year: "Homes for the Holidays."

Neat to see the #SteveMartin remake of #FatherOfTheBride getting an @ABCNetwork run tonight. Easily one of his best movies, perfectly tailored to him by Nancy Meyers (who worked with him again on the sequel and "It’s Complicated") and the late Charles Shyer.

One of the finest actors we've had, and the only one to date to win Oscars for best supporting actor in two consecutive years (for "All the President's Men" and "Julia"). I was fortunate to interview him; he was thoughtful and kind. Remembering #JasonRobards on his birthdate.

Quite simply, "@billyjoel: And So It Goes" is one of the definitive celebrity biographies. Brilliantly done, worth many viewings. @HBO

The story of how @billyjoel met #WhitneyHouston, related by him and #ChristieBrinkley, is "worth the price of admission" on @HBO tonight.
Nice to see #MikesMurder on @tcm today, especially after #DebraWinger just did a :"Two for One" night there. (She saluted director James Bridges, with whom she also made "Urban Cowboy " in her remarks.) And you can tell immediately that the score is by the legendary John Barry.

A number of years ago at an ABC press party, @ImMegDonnelly was thoroughly accommodating and charming in giving me an interview. I'm pleased for her success with her music and the Disney Channel "Zombies" franchise; a lovely young lady in all ways. Happy Birthday to her today!

Massively looking forward to tonight’s conclusion of @HBO's @BillyJoel documentary. Part 1 is superb ... as good as a profile of an artist's personal challenges and creative path gets.

During a press dinner on the CBS lot a number of years ago, I suddenly found myself standing next to @Matt_LeBlanc. We had a very pleasant, low-key conversation ... and I would venture to say that we parted as, um, friends that night. Good birthday wishes to him today!

I've always enjoyed seeing this veteran actor, and though Western and rural roles were his strongest suits (certainly in TV's "The Real McCoys"), it's been fun to watch him in relatively contemporary parts. Remembering three-time Oscar winner #WalterBrennan on his birthdate.

Simple fact: @martinamcbride has one of the most photogenic families on Planet Earth. @FamilyFeudABC #CelebrityFamilyFeud @ABCNetwork @hulu
Another hard loss in entertainment. He played a number of concerts at Ithaca College during my time there, and he was a singular talent throughout the breadth of his career. "Rest in peace" to a musical great, #ChuckMangione.
