goodnight you all~ see you tomorrow! Buh-bye Anderson!
@Heather, there's never enough:)
Anderson, glad you had a safe trip–and no, it doesn't show. You look fine.
Niroshina makes a strong point–some coverage on what's happening in Sri Lanka right now would be a welcome addition.
Take care, everyone; have a good night.
thriller – a true classic – yes indeed – so functional for any occasion
I have to go listen to Thriller now. I miss when Michael Jackson was cool! : (
Thank you Anderson & total 360 team for another broad topics show tonight. Good night too.
Good night fellow bloggers.
Anderson, get some sleep tonight – those red eye fights can be rough (and then a whole show to organize and appear in).
Call me nutty, but i always loved the Thriller album and dance. I think it's great! 242 people...and of course our favorite prison clip. LOL
YES – Have the crew version – would pay money for that!
how about the AC360 crew do the Thriller dance? we would love to see this 😀
Beat 360 is so cute tonight, and funny, too.
Michael Jackson never died. haha..Seems like fun to dance in a big group like that.
Good night everyone.
Have a great week.
Get some good sleep tonight, Anderson.
Sweet dreams all.
Loved the shot!! Goodnight everyone.Peace to all of you and yours.
"history of sorts" hahah i love those Thriller videos... simply hilarious!!!

Good night, Anderson and Erica!!
Good night, friends, bloggers!
Good night, David, Indiana
I also last week I missed … I was accustomed to finish my day with the liveblog and with the best company!
Goodnight folks. Anderson I think you should parody the thriller dance video. Your viewers should definitely enjoy it.
It's a terrible waste to rob ourselves of the talents of Americans willing and able to serve in the military just because they are gay. DADT makes no sense. But we've come a long way and I continue to hope this issue will become a non-issue in the near future.
How many Thriller videos do we need in our world?
Interesting show tonight -
Good night, all.....
My favorite is the AC360 crew dancing to "Single Girls." Bow-wow.
Great show tonight.....have a good night everyone!
Well, this video was certainly, um, "thrilling"...haw haw haw.
I'm still more impressed by the prisoners than the college kids, and I never thought I'd put a sentence like that together...wow.
Goodnight, everyone!!!
360 team should also make a choreography for us bloggers ... 🙂
I like how the guy had a "micheal jackson" hat on lol
goodnite every1
Good night everyone have a wonderful week
Haha! That was an awesome video...but it just doesn't beat seeing my kid brother do the thriller dance with his drama class! That was awesome! 🙂
Good night Anderson, Erica and fellow bloggers! Have a good night and a wonderful tomorrow!
Good night, Anderson and Erica!!
Good night, friends, bloggers!
Good night, David, Indiana
Thanks for being the trooper Andy! In LA yesterday (did you feel that earthquake?) and tonight you are back in NYC! I have to admire your stamina though! When the shows over tonight I suggest you get right home, put that blackberry away and get some well deserved rest. Sweet dreams!
Barbara in Boston... I think it's caught up to him now.
Good night Anderson, Erica, David G, Edurrado (Ed Henry) and my friend twitter/facebook bloggers!!!!!!!
Have a great night and sleep tight everyone!!!! 😀
See you tomorrow night!!!!
Day of the shot with Michael Jackson group are dancing great job as I can dance! Great shot!! I love the shot! 🙂 LOL!
Anderson,
Have a great night, good sleep at home after work!!!! See you tomorrow night!!! Have a plenty sleep! 😀
I can't believe the family calling it police burtality. How about he should of followed the commands of the officer and none of this would have happened. He brought it on himself a reasonable person would have listen to a police officer.
@Esma, using force to resist arrest IS a violent crime. Police can use the force they feel is needed to protect themselves and the public. As long there was physical resistance to following police attempts to arrest him, physical means to subdue him are permitted.
I think I would've liked college a lot lot better if I got to dance to Thriller and appear on TV for it. That would've been the highlight of my college years.
Good night eveyone. Have a pleasant evening!
"Swine Flea"....hey, I hope my dog won't catch it.
It was great to see the show again! Have a great night.
It clearly seems that those cops were out to make an example of this teenager.
The first lady looks great as always. Keep those arms bare, Michelle. Nice dress!
It's no surprise,(police abuse) just go to court any day see all the minorities in endless lines to pay ,tickets.Profiling...
Anderson, when I'm watching the news I think of Daniel Pearl sometimes. I feel terrible for him, his family.
@Patricia Edmonton, I like what you wrote. I pray things turn around for Farrah too.
I don't know if this is appropriate, but if Farrah Fawcett's cancer is localized, has she tried the highly specific, focused, radiation therapy, called radiosurgery, or cyberknife? Delivers radiation to the needed area without affecting healthy tissues as much as conventional radiation. Radiation focused in specific doses from various angles to do this.
lol! We Played Thriller at our prom......the teachers even joined in...what's sad is that our Senior class knows all of the moves.
