Harry Smith put on his "Quiet Storm" voice for his Rachel McAdams interview this morning on The Early Show, and McAdams clearly had hearts in her eyes. Watch the flirtation between these two as they trade compliments and longing glances.

Here is amiable CBS Early Show host Harry Smith absolutely cutting the you-know-what out of his finger, with a vegetable slicer, on live TV this morning. You know he wanted to say "Fuck!" so bad.

Today during CBS Early Show's Home segment Amy Matthews showed off a quick and cheap solution to your clogged drain. Watch and fawn along with Harry Smith at plumbing's newest ingenious invention. DJ Tanner could have used this.

Landon Donovan's interview on this morning's Early Show was everything you'd expect: shout-outs to YouTubes, an overly enthusiastic Harry Smith and exclamations of 'Dude!' Yet Donovan is repping the US and its nice to know he's pretty grounded.

This morning, Ben Stein and Harry Smith made complete fools of themselves. First, Stein attempts to rap about spending money wisely (haha old timer) and then Smith comes in to do some sort of geriatric-zombie-with-gout dance. Cringe-worthy indeed!

I'm sorry your NCAA bracket was killed by Northern Iowa and Saint Mary's. But you know whose wasn't? Other than Harry Smith? His Early Show co-anchor Dave Price. Why? He went to a little school called Cornell. Heard of it?

On The Early Show, Senator Dodd applauds Harry Smith's recent televised colonoscopy, but he likens the feeling of having ones anus checked to passing the finance reform bill. The only difference being a colonoscopy usually accomplishes something.

Today at Gawker.TV, CBS's Harry Smith's embarrassing Final Four picks, The Amazing Race contestants fight among themselves in France, The Ricky Gervais Show delves into monkey-on-human sex, and just how self-congratulatory is the opening sequence for HBO's The Pacific?

The day after Leno's Tonight Show premiers, The Early Show invites Howard Stern onto their show to discuss bash Jay Leno. Stern didn't hold back, saying the mere mention of Leno's name makes him want to vomit.

• The bad news for Condé Nast now that McKinsey has finished up its summer-long review: Editors and publishers at the company may be asked to trim their budgets by as much as 25 percent. The good news, according to one Condé insider: "This doesn't mean Anna Wintour is going to start taking the bus," nor is the company going to get all cheap "like Hachette." [Crain's]
• Jay Leno's new show debuts tonight on NBC. Will it be a success? A massive failure? Only time will tell, but the stakes "couldn't be higher." [LAT]

• Ratings are down for Project Runway, too. Barack is not to blame. [WWD]

Never mind corporate meatballs like Neil Ashe and Quincy Smith — how's perky CNET correspondent Natali Del Conte faring in the wake of CBS Interactive's acquisition? Well! In an appearance on today's Early Show with Harry Smith, she sported a new 'do and explained the intricacies of different hands-free options for California drivers now banned from holding a cell phone to their ears. The best part is watching Smith stumble a bit trying to understand Bluetooth, pick himself back up by casually noting his experience as a helicopter passenger, then stumbling again over "those map things" before telling viewers to visit earlyshow.cbs.com — which is not a valid URL. Which makes us think that maybe Del Conte would make a better host than the guy who made his name doing standups for A&E Biography. Harry may be a perfect stand-in for the confused-old-man audience CBS currently has. But Natali represents the future audience CBS hoped it was buying.
