CNN sure is working hard to mix it up lately. The original cable news network has often been chided for their supposed liberal bias, and has been criticized for its lack of hard news. I think they’ve struck a decent balance while still being watchable. I remember a few years ago when they drastically overhauled their lineup and there was like 6 hours of Wolf Blitzer in a row. That was a really miserable time to be a news junkie.
Rainn Wilson, one of the stars of The Office (he was just nominated for best supporting actor) has a new movie coming out in August called The Rocker. Instead of just stopping by to give the standard entertainment segment interview, he also got his weatherman on.
I wonder how many people were just flipping channels and bought what he said for a minute. I would much rather have this guy as the weatherman than pretty much any other meteorologist who actually “knows what he’s doing.” You can see all of Rainn’s interview (along with a few awkward “that’s what she said” moments) here.
Here’s Rainn and wife Holiday Reinhorn at the 2008 VH1 Rock Honors in Los Angeles on Saturday. Images thanks to WENN.

Oh come on he’s adorable! In a very, I would never have sex with him but it would be cool if a friend of mine did so that we could be friends through a friend and maybe he would be funny if we all went out for drinks at the local bar on a friday after we all got off of work and then one of my other friends says “isn’t he funny” and I go “Oh he’s totally adorable they are so cute together. She should bring him out with us more often. “, sort of way.

OMG I LOVE this man! He’s so freaking awesome. That’s cool that he was a weatherman for a while, I didn’t even know that.

I laughed my ass off watching that. I LOVED it when he said, ” There’s a big storm, but don’t worry. It’s out in the ocean. And no one’s fishing there.” He is so hilarious. I can’t wait to see his new movie, or new Office either.
