– Barbra Streisand announced Thursday that she will embark on a national concert tour this fall, her first in more than a decade. In 2000, Streisand declared she would never do another concert, saying, “I don’t like performing. I feel like I’m in a beauty pageant.”
– A number of hyper-competent CBS crime-solvers are available in convenient downloadable form. The network on Thursday became the latest media company to make its content available on iTunes. Episodes can be downloaded of all three members of the “CSI” franchise, reality flagship “Survivor” and “NCIS” and “Numb3rs.”
– Get ready for reality TV at its furriest. Ten cats, picked from animal shelters nationwide, will live in a New York house to vie for a grand prize: an executive-level job with Meow Mix.
