Mary Hart and John Tesh reunion on tonight's ET!

She's too fat to cross her legs now!!!!

That bitch!

She doesn't look fat, but she stayed too long at the filler bar!

I haven't watched it since they left. Maybe I'll check it out.

How have these two escaped the grim reaper?

That's great. What's the occasion for the reunion?

Why is he clinging to that hairdo?

How very...700 Club

Will John play his horrifying "music" for those who tune in?

Did anyone ever see this hilarious story about Tesh returning his National Radio Hall of Fame award because his wife droned on?

True story: John Tesh and Oprah used to be fuck buds, in the 80s.

R11 Don’t you mean Eskimo sisters?

His wife Hotel star Connie Sellecca, she looks great.

Entertainment Tonight was very popular in the pre-internet days. Everybody watched ET back then.

Mary Hart's legs were insured by Lloyd's of London.

Mary has apparently been eating good lately!

I'm kinda of surprised Mary Hart didn't go to work for a network to try and fill the celebrity interview void left by Barbara Walters. I could see her doing a yearly Oscar and 10 most fascinating people type specials.

"Why is he clinging to that hairdo?"

WIGS R US

Really? Who gives a f@ck?

When I saw her behind homeplate at Dodger Stadium, I mistook her for John Madden, then remembered he died.

I missed them.

I saw it and enjoyed it. Both of them were in tears talking about John's recent health struggles.

Is Mary the person whose voice caused a viewer to have seizures and lose consciousness? Something about Mary's voice triggered the woman's condition. It became a news story awhile.

R23 I thought that was just a plot point on Seinfeld?

Yes:

Albany woman

I miss ET back in the day, it wasn't so ass kissing like it is now, EVERYONE WAS NOT a 'superstar" and they regularly had segments on playgirl models, male strippers, male hunks and so on...

Bangs. No good on any man.

John Madden is still alive r20.

The seizure thing was the highlight of her career and the only reason anyone would remember her. Tesh with "song stylings" even more of a has been.

Shit, R28. I thought he died.

I thought one of them had died!

Live! At RedRocks!

R31 Which one?

Ron Hendren we hardly knew ye.

I remember when ET premiered in 1981. I was 16 years old (54 now). OMG, we thought it was the greatest thing ever and watched it every night. As someone upthread mentioned, it was such a different era for stars back then. There was no Internet, which meant you had to go to the grocery store and buy PEOPLE magazine every week as well as TV Guide, US Magazine, and Rona Barrett's two mags, Gossip and Hollywood. And if you wanted to see stars on TV, you watched Entertainment Tonight (or Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous if you wanted to see what their houses looked like). Oh, and by "stars," I mean people with actual talent -- there were no reality-show stars back then. Like I said, a totally different era.

Mary's still got it, she could host the show today and she should.

And there was a sense of class to it too r35. It wasn't trashy. We didn't have the Kartrashians and Paris Hilton and any of those bottom feeders.

Leonard Maltin was a respected film critic and he would regularly appear on the show. There were thoughtful interviews, not sound bites, and cheesy banter (for the most part).

I loved Entertainment Tonight when I was in junior high, and looked forward to watching it daily. I still remember Hart's hyper earnest reporting. She would report on a starlets divorce with the same somber and pained expression worn by CNN anchors breaking the story of a plane crash.

It was hilarious how much the anchors sucked up to the big stars in what were, in hindsight, clearly scripted interviews.

It was SUCH an 80s show, and I mean that in a good way. As others have said, there was still a lot of glamour to show business and far less talentless people and no reality show bottom feeders.

Mary Hart was actually very good at interviews. She really got people to open up when she talked to them, it wasn't all softball stuff.

Entertainment news shows today are all garbage. I don't watch any of it anymore. I might watch something that interests me if it pops up on my YouTube feed. But other than that, no.

Entertainment tonight really was the go to show if you wanted to see what was going on in Hollywood, and what was up with your favorite Stars. And yes, I'm talking real Stars, not reality TV trash. Real genuine A-list Movie and TV Stars etc.

The internet is great, but it also ruined a lot of things at the same time. I guess it's a tradeoff.

I miss the old Mary Hart ET, those were the days.

I gave Rob Weller head at a wedding reception.

Jesus saved Tesh. It was his FAITH that saw him through his miraculous cancer recovery.

AWESOME GREAT LAST POSTS EVERYONE!.. looking back we didn't know how good we had it with the ET of the 80s.... back when the show had ACTUAL stars, REAL stars, A-list talents... now? EVERYONE is a "star", if not a "superstar".. it's utterly ridiculous and the hosts suck as well, in their monumental ass kissing.... as it is? the hosts think THEY ARE stars and superstars including their "expert opinion commentary" on everything and other yapping yapping..

Well FUCK them!

I always found her way too saccharine and fake.

ET also had interviews with Golden Age stars, which were always fun. The ancient, post-stroke Bette Davis was always a highlight when she went on ET.

Leeza Gibbons and John Tesh had their own show which bombed but then she had her own successful show right after.

Mary Hart is probably glad she got out when she did. She had been interviewing REAL stars since the show started, but by the end of her tenure, they were forcing her to cover stories on reality TV trash. Could you imagine having to cover stories on trash like the Kuntdashians on a daily basis?

What kind of health problems has John had?

R49.. hear hear i agree.. back in the good days of ET as i stated previously stars were actual stars, superstars real actual superstars and it was classy and yet they also managed to throw in the next playgirl centerfold, male strippers and male hunks segments too! awesome!..

Leeza just isn't a pretty name.

Lord, I remember ET premiering in '81, too. My sister and I watched it every night in our room. On a 12" T.V. with rabbit ears. Good times!

John and Mary were great back in the day. ET felt like an actual newscast - not in a hard-hitting, Walter Kronkite way, but in that it broke real entertainment news and emphasized the business. The entertainment shows now are embarrassing. It’s all about the “anchors” jockeying to shoe horn their annoying personalities into every goddamn moment and, as someone mentioned up thread, just kissing nonstop celebrity ass. They actually make their red carpet interactions “news.” “When we come back, see what happens when Kit meets her celebrity crush!” Who gives a fuck?!?! They all carry on in such an embarrassing manner. Everything is awful now.

r49 I would bet money that's why Mary Hart left when she did. When you're used to sitting down with Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks and then you're told you have to interview the latest Bachelorette or Kate Gosselin etc. you can't blame her for bailing out.

Connie Selleca said that one of the perks of being married to John Tesh was they took her out of the birthday announcements.
