With more than 1,200 insured dogs and cats named "Oscar" it's no secret that movie goers love pets. In honor of the 87th Academy Awards, a pet insurance company, the nation's first and largest provider of pet health insurance, analyzed its database of more than 525,000 insured pets to find the top 10 most common Oscar nominee related pet names. And the nominees are (total number of pets sharing name in parenthesis)....:
Top Oscar Nominated Actor/Actress Related Pet Names
1. Bradley "Cooper" (2,633)
2. "Emma" Stone (1,239)
3. "Eddie" Redmayne (427)
4. "Reese" Witherspoon (274)
5. "Keira" Knightly (207)
6. "Michael" Keaton (83)
7. "Steve" Carell (82)
8. Edward "Norton" (37)
9. Ethan "Hawke" (32)
10. "Mark" Ruffalo (8)
Honorable mentions go out to the six pets named "Benedict" (Cumberbatch) and the four pets named "Meryl" (Streep). This year's nominated movie titles also had some popularity amongst pet owners with 18 pets named "Sniper" and 11 pets named "Selma."

I'd rather watch mattresses and computers than a day of Philosophy. An hour of watching them make suds will cause your eyes to glaze over.

Re: A SNOOZEFEST WEEKEND! AND ACATEMY AWARDS!

Hi Spurt! Another dull dull dull Q weekend. I won't be watching. By the way, Evine has been just as dull since its name change. It makes me think new owners won't be in business very long given their last two weeks. I saw lots of complaints on their fb site.

Very enjoyable edition! By the way, about the Saturday morning pairing. Do you recall that for a brief period it was actually David, Kerstin and Shawn? Can you just imagine the three of them together, yucking it up? Three hosts for one show! Shawn, of course, was overscheduled and had to drop out.

Re: A SNOOZEFEST WEEKEND! AND ACATEMY AWARDS!

Good morning, Spurt. Very funny, as always! I have to ask-- since I'm a relative newbie to your weekend previews-- who are the Bag Lady and the Pole Dancer? (If you're allowed to say-- or can you give me a few hints?)

Hi JOHNNYEAGER- Yep I remember the Saturday Morning Q that was once a trio instead of a duo.....in fact I had a hard time trying to find a photo of just David & Kerstin....Shawn always got in the way....{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

The trio was a channel changer for sure!!!!....

Hi CALMIN.....sad to hear that Evine has gotten off to a bad start....what I found absolutely AMAZING was comparing 3rd quarter results (sadly I can't seem to find the 4th quarter info)......but anyway, Shop HQ was 2nd in net sales, HSN was #1 and interesting that the Q was 3rd.....so Shop HQ seemed to have recovered and was movin on up after their Board Room Battle....only to be re-invented with a funny name....we will see how they fare....

Hi Handygal....and a very Good Morning to you too! {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}....

The Bag Lady is the Logo Line nicknamed by some Q customers since they said this clothing line looked like she was rummaging through someone's throw a ways and put together whatever she could find....{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

The Pole Dancer is Women With Control---so named from the vendor's bump and grind moves to what some consider "stripper music", to demonstrate her "no more wiggle, no more jiggle" clothing......many a thread has been written in the Suggestion Box encouraging her to consider shall we say, "another career"....{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Hi Kachina....I don't know.....given the choice about any of the choices---mattresses, computers, or Philosophy.....I would take NONE OF THE ABOVE!!! And yes the infamous bowl of suds and extra long demos does cause one's eyes to glaze over {#emotions_dlg.laugh}
