2 days to go
There are now 2 days before the season premiere of State of the Union. More articles and reviews are showing up on the Web and in papers, including USA Today and Bloomberg News. And Tracey had a good appearance on The Early Show this morning, appearing in 4 segments: at the end of the news at the top of the second hour (commenting on Lindsay Lohan's latest difficulties), the next segment following (her main appearance), at the bottom of the hour (rabbit ears for all!), and helping to model a striped scarf.
Now there is word that she will be appearing on The Tonight Show on April 20. Of course, I shall be looking forward to this.
Update: CBS has posted her appearance from this morning, and you can watch it here or read about it here.

5 days and counting...
And now the reviews start -- Austin360.com (affiliated with the Austin American-Statesman) has published a preview of three series beginning their seasons soon, and State of the Union is one of them. The critic liked Tracey's impression of Laura Bush and mentioned her treatment of last year's polygamist cult raids in west Texas, Renee Zellweger's musical take on those raids ("Seven Brides for Every Brother") and the ultimate in reality TV, "So You Think You Can Die?". Very interesting....
And in addition to appearing on CBS's The Early Show this coming Friday, Tracey will also be on E!'s Chelsea Handler show on April 22. (UPDATE from 4/14: she might be appearing on the 21st instead of the 22nd)
And lastly, The Tale of Despereaux came out on DVD and Blu-Ray today. Tracey was the voice of Miggery Sow in that, in case you've forgotten.
Update: the Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Tracey will be the first recipient of the BAFTA/LA Charlie Chaplin Lifetime Achievement Award for Comedy (BAFTA/LA is the British Academy of Film and Television Arts/Los Angeles). She'll receive it May 8 at the British Comedy Festival's awards ceremony. That sounds like quite an honor, and well-deserved. Congratulations, Trace!

Past -- and present
Today, the day I'm posting this, is April 5. 22 years ago on this day, a few of us were eagerly awaiting the premiere that evening of The Tracey Ullman Show. We didn't know what to expect, but we soon found out.
One week from now is the 2nd season premiere of State of the Union. Most of us are eagerly awaiting the premiere, and we pretty much know what to expect.
And this Friday, April 10, Tracey is appearing on The Early Show on CBS to promote SOTU.

More talk shows - and see SOTU now
Tracey was on The Early Show this morning, but I didn't know about it until after it happened (the Tivo listings didn't flag me). Fortunately, CBS News posted the clip on the Web, so I was able to see her interview. I've already summarized it in my talk show appearances section of the site.
Tomorrow, she's going to be on The View, and then next Monday (24th) she'll be on the Tavis Smiley show on PBS. And SOTU is premiering on the 30th... but if you have video on demand, you can see the first episode now. I have seen it, and I enjoyed it immensely. I'll hold off on further comment until after the episode officially premieres.
