30 days hath September...

An Index to The Run Down: Entertainment for September, 2006.

September is one of the shortest months on the calendar, but man, has it been a long one for the entertainment world! And I have hardly even scratched the surface of the new season shows (and there are several good ones!)... Anna Nicole's tragi-comic travails alone have spanned the globe, on both land and sea, and included all the biggies: love and marriage, death and birth, drugs and overdoses. But aside from her, September was the month for celebrity arrests -- especially DUIs!

This here's the index to the articles and entries of note for The Rundown Entertainment blog from September, 2006. Along the way, you'll find some entries from other blogs related to TV, film, and the entertainment industry in general. All the links open in their own window so you won't lose your place and this contains only the best ones. You'll find more if you read the whole blog, but that would take time.
