After 54 years on the air, CBS is replacing daytime soap As The World Turns with it’s own version of The View. Often referred to as’ the mom show’, the new all female chat show created by former Roseanne actress Sara Gilbert will look at current issues through the eyes of mothers.

Sources on Wednesday confirmed the plans for the show, which is also set to feature panelists Julie Chen, Holly Robinson Peete, Sharon Osbourne and Leah Remini. All mothers with kids from varying ages from toddlers to teenagers.

I don’t usually watch daytime talk shows..at all. But the randomness of the co-host might make this an interesting show.

Oh ..just an FYI…Julianne Moore, James Earl Jones, Dana Delany, Meg Ryan and Marisa Tomei, Jordana Brewster, Parker Posey, Jason Biggs and Martin Sheen all has parts on As The World Turns early in their careers. I bet this new mom show won’t be able to say that in 50 years.

CBS has ordered a new daytime talk show for fall 2010 featuring a panel of well-known news and entertainment personalities who will examine topical events and contemporary issues through the eyes of mothers.  The daily, one-hour series will be co-hosted by Julie Chen, Sara Gilbert, Sharon Osbourne, Holly Robinson Peete, Leah Remini and Marissa Jaret Winokur. The co-hosts—moms with children ranging in age from infant to adult—will swap stories, challenge each other on issues and engage the studio audience and viewers at home about events in the headlines and their own homes through the lens of motherhood.  Show segments will include guest interviews with entertainers and newsmakers, live remotes from the field and personal home footage shot by the co-hosts themselves. The show was developed by Gilbert, who also serves as executive producer.

No story…just a cute picture of Scientology BFF’s Jennifer Lopez and Leah Remini with matching cherry necklaces.

Scientology can cure ‘gayness’ and make you a mega-successful movie star…but those silly aliens just can’t figure out how to make a Jersey girl give up her Marlboro’s.

GROSS Leah Remini!!!!!! Please tell me you don’t smoke around you kids. NASTY. Jennifer Lopez? Can’t you do something about that????

I’m telling Tom Cruise.

Be warned, this post is extremely long, but if you find the insane ramblings of a Scientologist interesting, read on. This email, allegedly written by Leah Remini, surfaced yesterday. It’s not been authenticated at all, but the fact that Leah is quickly moving up the ranks in the church and was one of the first people allowed to see Suri Cruise, we don’t doubt that the powers that be at the church have her out recruiting. This email contains tons of Scientology terms and codes that leave us scratching our head. If any of our faithful out there have their secret Scientology decoder on them, drop us an email so we can clue in everyone else.

Hi!

This is Leah Remini writing you again. Some of you may know me from the TV show “King of Queens”, but what is more important is that I am now OT V and at one point I was a very stalled Clear. A lot of people helped me to get OT, and I decided I was going to turn around and help every Clear make it to OT.

A couple of months ago, you received a letter from me about an event I was holding to help people move who were stalled on the Bridge. Obviously you did not come and for some reason, feel you are not indeed a “stalled Clear”. Let me start with the definition of “stalled”. Not that you are-but who knows? STALL: To slow down or halt the progress of. (American Heritage Student Dictionary). If you
are not aggressively moving on your next step-your next “Gradechart Action”, you are stalled. Look at the Gradechart, it says: Clear-Sunshine Rundown-Solo Course Part 1-OT Preparations and so on up the chart. If you are not on your next step as per this chart, and are not on a prerequisite for Solo, you are stalled-plain and simple.

If your C/S has CS ed you for the PTS SP course, or some other needed action to get you rolling up the GRADECHART faster, then do it, and do it fast. I have experience being a Stalled Clear. I was
the kind of gal who went on course MAYBE a period a day, only on weekdays, and that was ONLY if I had the time. I felt I deserved a special award for being there and they couldn’t possibly ask for more. I remember thinking and saying out loud, “I WILL NEVER be like those idiots who wait 10 years to go OT!” 10 years later, I hadn’t moved. I mean I did everything else but move on to Solo One. I did other courses, I got myself in to trouble, then needed some FPRD and then I would finish that and it would be “my finances”… I would
hear people talk to me about other Clears and refer to them as “stalled Clears” and I would be like “Yeah-they are totally stalled. You guys should handle them.” Never once did I think “I” was a stalled Clear, because I was always doing something. Once my mother told me I was stalled and I actually thought she was an idiot.
Really, I thought “Wow, she really should handle that.” I also thought she just didn’t know me. My mom is OT VII and a Class VI. She did know me and she was right. So, it is up to you now to be honest with yourself and look at your own progress up the Bridge.

Do you ever wonder why you are not moving? No? Then that’s an outpoint. You are Clear, you are special, why have you not moved? Whatever the reason, there is an answer and a solution. I don’t care what it is:
you were not serviced right or fast enough, people don’t get you, you have other things going on that we don’t get, you are helping others, you are upset, you haven’t been acked, your life is actually going well, your life is not going well, there’s no money there’s no time, if you were a millionaire you would do it no problem, you are
waiting for your 2D to make it, there’s no urgency, you are not sure if you have what it takes to be OT, you hated your auditor, you don’t like the parking situation…WHATEVER IT IS, IT IS STOPPING YOU AND THERE IS A REASON FOR THAT!

Why am I telling you this and who the hell am I writing you? Do you think that I have nothing better to do with my time than write you letters and put on events? Do you think I make some sort of commission off you? The answer is that I don’t have better things to do than to support my group and help when I can. Clears ARE my
group. And no- I don’t make a dime. Does that make you wonder, “Why the hell does she care?”. Or… “Why does the Org care?” Well, when you do your levels you too will care. Sept 11th (9/11) kicked me in
the a&#. I finally realized that all it takes is a few madmen to take us all down. There I was, just running on my treadmill thinking life is okay. I’m going on course every so often, (when I had time) and BAM! Life has changed. I suddenly thought, “Oh my God, what if I’m stuck in this condition again and I have to–what? Do it all over again? Where would I go? What would I do? Would some secret Scientology police come down and save me? Is there a secret back-up plan? I was sure there was. But there isn’t . All it would take is another
tragic event to happen again and we are all done. There will be no planet for us to be stalled, or “just doing okay” on. There would be nothing! The only plan is for you to move on up to OT as fast as you can. That is the secret. Really. I am asking you to get it together. You are in charge and responsible for what you do this lifetime. Not being on course and not doing your next step is getting you where? Play out the scenario-there you are being a Clear, being right about whatever it is that is keeping you from being on course and doing
your next step. Years go by, you are making money, you have a nice house and a nice car. You spent time with those friends you wanted to hang out with, you cleaned out the garage, you traveled. You do all the things that were keeping you from taking your next step. Then what? Then you are going to move? I hate to say this but you are lying to yourself. You need to move now, regardless of your situation. Are you just going to keep in place what you have had sitting there for lifetimes to come? Do you think we are just going to be here forever? So I say knock off any critical thought right now that you may have about me, the orgs, your FSM, your auditor,
anyone else, and contact us so we can help you. All you need to do is just reach once and we can help. LRH was very clear on what we need to do- obviously in some way you are out of agreement with that. That again, is an outpoint, and we can help you with that.

You’re waiting because of money? Or for your wife to do it first or for you to strike it rich? It will not happen without your decision to go up the levels. That is the truth. You owe it to yourself, your family, and to mankind to move and move NOW.

In closing, this is not going to happen often. I am only doing this again because some of you did not show. I hope to see you on September 28th at 11:30am at the AOLA atrium for a second chance. There will be brunch served, free of course! Do this for yourself-just blow through whatever it is that is sitting there, and just come. It’s not going to kill you- I promise!

Much love,
Leah Remini
