What’s the one TV show you can just watch over and over again? Someone looked at the streaming habits of all 50 states so far this year.  And here are the top five shows:

  1. “The Office”, #1 in 12 states . . . Arizona, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Texas.
  2. “13 Reasons Why”, 7 states . . . California, Delaware, Georgia, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, and Oklahoma.
  3. “Grey’s Anatomy”, 6 states . . . Connecticut, Hawaii, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico,
  4. “Supernatural”, 5 states . . . Colorado, South Dakota, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Wyoming.
  5. “Friends”, 4 states . . . Idaho, Michigan, Oregon, and Vermont.

 

BILL MURRAY has been accused of assaulting a photographer who was “harassing” him. He allegedly threw the guy against a door – and the guy was CARLY SIMON’s brother Peter.

 

There’s supposedly a “Family Guy” movie in development, which will be half-animated and half live-action. And there’s also a second “Simpsons” movie in the pipeline.

 

SUGARLAND is NOT afraid that their opening acts might blow them off the stage and make them look bad. They even encourage them to try. KRISTIAN BUSH says, “We learned this a long time ago from Kenny Chesney.  If there was a conversation about what we could or couldn’t use – like speakers or lights, he would say, ‘Use everything.  Blow me off the stage.’ “I’ve always remembered that, so it’s what I tell these guys.” The interview also touched on the never-ending rumors about bad blood between Kristian and JENNIFER NETTLES.  Everyone seems to think that’s why Sugarland was on hiatus for so long.  She knocked that one down. “We always said the [reunion] door was open, but the media loves a scandalous spin.  I think they’ve been so accustomed to when people do solo work that they never work together again because they’ve had a falling out.  Neither of those things were the case with us.”

 

PRESTON BRUST’s wife went into early labor, so LOCASH had to cancel their show in Marysville, Ohio on Friday. The news came suddenly so Preston had to take several flights in order to get back to Nashville. Fortunately, he made it to the delivery room in time to be with his wife Kristen when she gave birth.  Their son Legend Wilde was born on Friday.  He’s their second child.  They also have a two-year-old daughter named Love Lily.

 

JOHN MAYER’s house was burglarized and ransacked. The value of the property taken is between $100,000 and $200,000.

 

GRANGER SMITH’s tour manager woke him up Saturday morning to tell him his equipment truck had crashed on a highway. Fortunately, the driver wasn’t hurt.  Obviously, Granger wasn’t in it, but he was nearby because he posted a photo of the truck on its side, plus a video of himself and the emergency crew on the scene.

 

LUKE BRYAN and his wife Caroline sat on a shark-shaped raft while an ATV pulled them down a makeshift Slip-N-Slide. It was at his son Tate’s 8th birthday party.  Caroline posted a clip and captioned it, “That dorsal fin went into places it never should go.  Ever.”

 

THOMAS RHETT posted a very cute photo yesterday of his daughter Ada wearing one of his hats. He wrote, “Happy first birthday sweet baby girl.  I love you so much it hurts.”

 

NICOLE KIDMAN posted of KEITH URBAN trying to find a unique sound while playing banjo in a hotel bathroom. Keith pretty much never stops working – it does NOT look like a five-star hotel bathroom.

 

In case you didn’t hear this: RASCAL FLATTS had to stop their show abruptly last week in Indianapolis for unknown security reasons.  It was at the end of the show during the encore.

 

“Bachelor in Paradise” at 8:00 p.m. on ABC.

“So You Think You Can Dance” at 8:00 p.m. on Fox.

“American Ninja Warrior” at 8:00 p.m. on NBC.
