No one watches This American Life.

I am as disappointed as Gus that there was no Secret Chocolate Room.

Spending sprees aren't an unusual manifestation during a manic phase.  Stealing the money to fund it, particularly from campaign funds, is pretty rare.

My congressman!  Love him.  He won Jeopardy five nights, plus beat Watson.

It is now.

I'm all for free membership to public pools, but there is no damn way I am subsidizing peoples' backyard pools unless I can use them any time I like.

He would split into 333,333,333 parts.

I've watched a few shows on there.  I like to watch tv with the CC on.  This is impossible on TVGN.  On every show, the closed captioning is off from the audio track by a noticeable amount — worse than live tv — and gets garbled every few minutes.  It's not that way for any other network I've come across.

Saturday is the hardest.  Sunday is hard, but not nearly as hard as Saturday.  Having a big grid with long theme answers makes it a lot easier to fill in, plus the difficulty level is purposely lower.

TVGN's been showing full screen reruns for a while now, at least on my Directv feed.  Also, I love my DTV guide.

I think only Simon murdered someone on that show.  Though Kevin may have taken a few people out as a cop, I don't remember.

Thanks, I didn't know that.  Original TWoP was great.

The moderation wasn't bad pre-Bravo takeover.  After that, it was simply frightening.

What, Mike & Molly isn't good enough for you?

I'm a firefighter, and consider Chicago Fire a comedy.

L&O:UK cracks me up because they are just redoing old Original Recipe scripts in random order, and some of the rewriters make more of an effort at adapting to the UK characters than others.  It's got to be tough to play UK Logan one week, UK Lupo the next, UK Curtis the week after that, and pretend it's one consistent…

They did do a Cold Case/CSI:NY crossover, with Danny Pino even.  Sadly, they played no good songs during the inevitable flashbacks.
