Good Morning Jack! Glad you're back – very funny post. Hope you had a nice weekend, aside from being dissed for a Tony, ha ha. Here's to a good week for us all. It's good to have you back on the blog. Have a great day, talk to you later.

Jack...Good to finally have you back on the blog! I missed your crazy funny posts! Once again you didn't disappoint. You are too funny! Keep it up.

Sorry that you didn't get a Tony but hey...it could be worse. You could be "famous" and stuck on that island with Mrs. Blago, and that Heidi and Spencer couple..who ever the heck they are! Thank your lucky stars you don't have to deal with those people. You'd really be drove insane then.

Cindy..Ga.

You are so funny. Morning jack!!

Sometimes great talent goes unrecognized.

Well, let's see, Heidi was sent to the hospital after being locked in a dark room with Spencer for a whole night and she has an ulcer of some kind apparently.
They want to sue NBC now. IDK, I would sue someone if I was forced to be on a reality show that is supposed to raise money for charity but I was still getting paid and massive exposure.
( I mean isn't that their job? To be media parasites? Wouldn't they be suing themselves?)
But Spencer claims they are to famous to be on the show. Yes, more famous than Pati Blago and Lou Diamond Phillips.
(I don't watch that crapfest, I get my updates via my favorite Gossip Blog and NBC.)
Gilligan's Island of The Hideous is imploding, according to different sources, many are not happy with Spiedi. Jack, I implore you DO NOT WATCH THIS! Please, brain cells are precious!

XXO♥
p.s. SAVE LOU DIAMOND!!!!

It's official: I adore you Jack.

Once again hysterical...glad i wasnt drinking my coffee when i read this!! Welcome Back!!! Starting a monday off w/ your blog is always a good thing. ~spycnsweet

Jack,

Thanks for the Monday morning pick me up that I so desperately needed! I might just be able to make it through the day now.... maybe.

Wait ... if you're already at work, does that mean Sammy's smoking a menthol and drinking a martini out of your favorite Golden Girls coffee mug?

Have a great day!
-r

Thank God your blogs are back. I have been seriously missing them as they absolutely make my day! Please keep them coming.

Why am I consistently drawn here? Hilarity unlimited. Thanks for blogging

You're my hero.

Hi Jack Welcome Back to blog
I can't understand why you were snubbed either i mean really yoou and your sidekick Sammy the menthol smoking dog it's pure star power if you ask me.Who does Liza Minelli think she is? I'd watch Heidi and Spencer getting shot out of a cannon out into the land of obliivion where no one will here from them again -ha!

Thanks for your funny post Jack
You're the second best next to Anderson -ha! I

Nice to have you writing on here again. I personally enjoyed watching the Tony Awards last night. It was an amazing year on Broadway. The true talent that exists never stops wowing me. Definitely worth a trip to NYC to see some shows.

Because of your frequent Tweets about Angela Lansbury, I thought of you when she came on stage last night. Your blog cracks me up. Thanks for entertaining us!

Hello Hello Jack,

Agree with most posts. Good to have you back on the blogs and i'm sorry you did not win a Tony. However, you left the most important question out....Did Kathleen Turner beat you?

Hmm...thought you might be depressed because you weren't the inspiration for Mame, a little before your time. Angela was certainly one of the belles of the ball last night. Although your show sounded riveting, don't let the critics get to you. Maybe there will be a role opening up in Hair. Just don't glom onto one of those celebrity shows with the couple unofficially known as twit and t**t. You might regret THAT.

Uhhhuuuuuuuu! You came back! Thanks!

Great way to start the week was no longer the best (bodies of flight 447 and sentencing of Laura Ling and Euna Lee!)

I love musicals. I love everything that has dance very much! Good times that the ballet was part of my life!
The Broadway is amazing. Ah, if I lived in NY ...

Great post, as usual! Thanks

See you on Twitter!

Hey Jack,
Nice blog! Sorry you didn't win a Tony! Maybe someone can make you a fake one out of cardboard and put it on your desk to make ya feel better lol Anyways keep up the great posts! Have a great week!!

Hi Jack!

Can't believe they passed you up. Clearly they don't recognize real talent... and with such a promising follow up too. How will Broadway survive without you?

Awesome and funny as usual... love your sense of humour & really happy your blogs are back.

What a fun challenge it would be to work with you on your potential theatrical show. Considering our current economic malaise, I would tweak the title ever so slightly to Any Day You Don't HAVE to Sleep With Your Landlord is a Good Day.
I foresee an off-Broadway premiere at Highways in L.A.

Perhaps you could rent a stoner-bus, and take your show on the road, to give it the attention it deserves?
I'm sure they just overlooked you; your ballot is probably under a table, somewhere.

Jack, how do you know they snubbed you? Maybe they'd tried contacting but couldn't get hold of you..... I mean, goodness..... you're everywhere! The longest time you were stationery was when you were crying over spilt glitter... not the best of times for a little tete-tete in those circumstances I would imagine...

Anyhow, maybe you need to spend more time with your buddies Angela, Kathleen or Liza & see whether some of their shine will rub off onto you.... you never know..... Tomorrow is another day.

Jack tell us...did Liza, you know, make a pass at you last night over cheddar biscuits? Is she looking for another friend?

Hi Jack, great to see you back! I’ve missed you. I’ve heard so much about this “I’m a Celebrity…” show but it just doesn’t appeal to me. I’m trying to watch less TV and spend more time outdoors while the weather is nice. Have a great summer!

Once again jack you nail another fine from line to line performance here. Coffee with jack gray always make my early day (yawn). Your Broadway show aspiration is really quite admirable. I mean any one of the one man/woman shows would have never been had they not been gone after with a vengeance. The reality is that right here jack you have an online audience matched by any packed to full capacity Broadway theater. However, if it's the foot lights and the glamor of making a dramatic Norma Desmond descending a staircase entrance that you crave, then might I suggest you just keep on trying to get through to them, just as though you were up next in line on "SO You Think You Can Dance". If you can survive that, and that one pumpkin faced judge with the most annoying machine gun laugh, you'll have one foot in the door to Broadway, via Las Vegas that is!. After all dreams are merely dreams unless one crosses the threshold between them and reality, stepping out of them quick to make them happen, I rest my weary case and concede to all. Thanks for all the laughs today~ julesgregory

You make me laugh.

@Aaron_Horne

Give Yourself A Tony Jack!
You certainly deserve an award and so Does Sammy. I actually thought of how cute you and Sammy would have been in that song performed from Hair last night. What was the name of that song? Oh, yes, Hair.
I can just see you and your peace dog covered in body glitter running around the audience sitting in cute young things' laps and Sammy puffing on her joint and sticking her nose in funny places of which belong to Angela Landsbury, and as it would turn out, she failed to see the humor. Go figure.
Glad to see you back in the saddle even if you are nude and covered in Grand Marnier. Anyone who can do that is level orange alert and in your case, that is a very good thing!
You were missed.
XO's!
@BettyAnnTX

Tony baloney. Sometimes it's just as much fun to pitch it at the wall and if it doesn't stick then smile and watch it slide.

You should probably just bypass the Tonys all together and make an all new awards show for blogging.

Glad you're back... the insipid world of hospitality gives me very little to look forward to everyday (unless you count being berated by strangers ... which is a joy in it's own right), so it's always appreciated when there's a Jack Gray update.

Final sidebar: Nice to see that Liza Minelli is moving up in the world... first being Kristen Wiig's BFF in an SNL skit and then dinner with you at a Red Lobster. There is hope for all of us.

Ha! I like your style Jack. Maybe you should change your name to Styles Gray...can I get Liza's number? I need a good lesson learned on naive-ity.

Hi Jack. That was funny. I think your one man show need more of your dog and rain boots. The trick is to leg wrestle Kathleen Turner. Word on the street is she's an unstoppable arm wrestler.

Thanks for the witty humor. It is much needed!

Who the hell is Heidi & Spencer?

HAHAHAHAHAH- I needed that laugh this afternoon...an evening at Red Lobster with LM...ROTFL!!!!

i would like to tell you about a simple cure for the flu that was given to me when i was very sick in the 1950's. I was deathy sick with the Asian FLU and my landlord came over to see me and found out i was sick and said he'll be right back. He came back with a can of Oregon blackberry pie filling and told me to sip the juice until it is all gone,but don't eat the berries. So, i tried his remedy and within about 6 hours i was actually sitting up and feeling hungry. All my flu symtoms were gone. Since then i have been giving this remedy to my 5 children and friends and family. It has worked on us for over 50 years, so i would really like to pass this information on to as many people that i can.

...Burlesque tribute to Angela Lansbury: “Murder, She Wrote…
All Night Long.”

Ha ha ha... great!

You made my Monday!! Thanks for laugh.

A v-good one! It'll let me pass my usual Monday Blues.
Thank you, Jack and thank you, Anderson.

Your humor is wonderful..unpredictable always hilarious and enjoyable! Keep it going!

This is pretty funny but just a warning. Stay away from Mary Kate!! I've never seen any of the stuff in Costa Rica or any of the other show you mentioned. If Anderson Cooper ran all day I'd probably watch it all day.
Have a great week!

I want to know what we can do about North Korea and the American journalists sentenced to 12 years!!!

Great blog as usual. Thought you might tweet last night after Angela Landsbury's big Tony win but I guess you two were out partying to celebrate.

I second Connie. Stay away from either of the Olsens.

It's only a matter of time until they snap and eat someone whole.

(while I am sure you are delicious, I would be sad not to have any more of your blog posts to read).

Yay, Jack is back! You've been bogarting the funny for much too long. I don't know about anyone else, but my day is not complete without an Angela Lansbury reference.

My condolences on your Tony snub. I'm afraid Mary-Kate Olsen is now off the table, but I'm sure Jodi Sweetin will still totally take your calls.

Also, please stay away from the trashy reality TV. I think your boss watches enough for both of you. Meanwhile, I'm still trying to figure out if Spencer and Heidi are real people. I'm guessing the answer to that question might be in the eye of the beholder.

@newsjunkie365

very funny, have a great week, everyone! School's out in
Florida! even for teachers, starting tomorrow... have a great summer, jack and anderson..

Oh, that's hilarious! Some people just don't recognize good art when they see it.

Hey Jack, Welcome back!

You have a supreme talent for writing, that Alone would be grounds to Win an Award : ) I love how your experience in life is expressed in a humorous, laughing, and, yes, sometimes in even a thought provoking fashion..... in a matter of fact way... you gotta love what you do, an i do enjoy the laughter you give. have a great week. ~

Sincerely, Lori in MN

Oh, Jack, you poor darling! I was one of the twelve people fortunate enough to see your show. The sight of you weeping over that body glitter will stay with me forever, or for at least the next two weeks. I'm only slightly insulted that I wasn't the audience member chosen to lick the Grand Marnier off of you. After all, I was the only one in the front row, AND I was awake.

Be that as it may, your post is wonderful, as always, and has almost removed the foul taste in my mouth from that number from "Guys & Dolls." The fat fellow who played the original Nicely-Nicely Johnson is rotating in his very large grave.

@madfashionista

Not sure if I've just missed them or you haven't been blogging, but glad to have you back! That was the most hilariously entertaining read of my week thus far. Not often can I say anything I read has me literally laughing out loud, which I did through pretty much this entire piece.

And I for one hope to catch a revival of "Murder She Wrote... All Night Long."

So... That WAS you that night at Red Lobster with Liza Minnelli...Thought so!! So good to have Jack back!! Missed your witty word... : )

I heard that you and Anderson Cooper are the same person! True?

Hey Jack

Glad you are back; we missed you! Don't get discouraged over your production not being nominated – all the greats were panned in their day. Its like a great artist – you can't sell anything while you are alive and need money to eat but once you die of hunger those paintings start selling like hot cakes. I bet your productions catch on soon and you will receive the acclaim you are due....or the rotten fruit. One or the other, its still recognition.

don't leave us again. The weeks are dreary without your wit to give us a treat to look forward to!!

with you jack, its like waiting for the 114x bus. you wait ages then they all come at once. i read your blog, laughed my head off and then watched the vid you tweeted, and fell on the floor in hysterics. all i need now is a few late nite tweets from you to complete my otherwise not so funny day and i have my fix.
thanks so much for sharing your funniness.

Hey Jack – can you remind Anderson that some of us are looking for the NY store where the allegedly delicious carrot cake came from? I think he said it was in Harlem?

Funny post – terrific writing!
Discovered you and this article via Twitter and as I posted there, "...didn't watch the Tonys & don't know the author but a good piece transcends, eh?..."
Thanks for the chuckle.

@BaranLLC

Great as usual Jack! Glad to see you're blogging again!

Well Jack, after all these feedback from your bloggers, it's time to stop crying... & get your act together!

Well Jack, I for one am disappointed that the Tony's did not recognize your show, which is obviously from the mind of a genius!! I will be waiting anxiously for your next production. I'm sure the Academy will recognize you next time around!
Glad to have you back!!!

Jack is back!! Yeah!! Thanks for all the yucks - just wondering how Neil Patrick Harris would have worked you/your show into his hilarious finale.

Jack is back! Yay! How we've missed you! Excellent blog today! You have no idea how much brighter your blog make my Mondays! Thanks Jack!

Jack, you are my daily dose of good old fashioned hilarity. I love your posts on twitter, but this blog post tops them all. I wish we were friends, you are the kind of guy I'd love to hang out with...thanks for making me smile.

I luv ya,

Pawspagal

Mmmmmm . . .. Nutella!

You are hilarious!! Jack, don't keep anything back next time, ya hear???
