But other quotes in the running were: "Can my code name be Lando Calrissian?" and "It's going to be a freaking vampire apocalypse." It is not a spoiler but a fact that <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/13/moonlight-done-say-cbs-sources/">CBS decided earlier this week </a>not to pick up <em>Moonlight </em>for a second season. The fat lady hasn't finished quite singing yet, though: Our own <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/14/moonlight-isnt-done-yet/">Brett Love reported that Nikke Fink thinks the CW might pick up the show after all</a>. So, keep your eyes pealed for that possible announcement. <br /><br />In the meantime, however, we have the season (and, thus far, series) finale to contend with. I don't know whether the writers suspected that the series would be ending, but surely they knew (along with everyone else) that the show was on the bubble. So, they ended the season in a manner that would provide some closure for us all, while also keeping things open in case it was continued. I, for one, appreciate that.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/moonlight-sonata-series-finale/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Moonlight: Sonata (series finale)</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/moonlight-sonata-series-finale/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1198216/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/moonlight-sonata-series-finale/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>Alex OLoughlin</category><category>AlexOloughlin</category><category>CBS</category><category>Eric Winter</category><category>EricWinter</category><category>Jason Dohring</category><category>JasonDohring</category><category>Moonlight</category><category>Sophia Myles</category><category>SophiaMyles</category><dc:creator>Jen Creer</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 17 May 2008 00:25:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Doctor Who: The Sontaran Strategem</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/doctor-who-the-sontaran-strategem/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/doctor-who-the-sontaran-strategem/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/doctor-who-the-sontaran-strategem/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/doctor-who/" rel="tag">Doctor Who</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="114" border="0" align="right" alt="Doctor Who" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/doctorwho.jpg" /><em>(S04E05) </em> Yet another classic <span style="font-style: italic;">Doctor Who</span> villain gets an update. This time it's the Sontarans in their first television appearance in 23 years.<br /><br />For a revision, it's actually pretty accurate to the original series. The only difference with the Sontarans now is that they're all short. This is actually an improvement on the original series since they've always been from a heavy gravity world yet appeared at normal size (which always struck me as a little odd, unless the Sontarans we've seen historically were the professional wrestler versions).<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/doctor-who-the-sontaran-strategem/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Doctor Who: The Sontaran Strategem</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/doctor-who-the-sontaran-strategem/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1193483/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/17/doctor-who-the-sontaran-strategem/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>BBC</category><category>Catherine Tate</category><category>David Tennant</category><category>Sci Fi Channel</category><category>TARDIS</category><category>The Doctor</category><dc:creator>Brad Trechak</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 17 May 2008 00:02:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Joey Lawrence is hosting a new dance show for TLC</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/joey-lawrence-is-hosting-a-new-dance-show-for-tlc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/joey-lawrence-is-hosting-a-new-dance-show-for-tlc/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/joey-lawrence-is-hosting-a-new-dance-show-for-tlc/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality/" rel="tag">Other Reality Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/programming/" rel="tag">Programming</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/casting/" rel="tag">Casting</a></p><a href="http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=20080515tlc01"><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="282" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/joey_lawrence%283%29.jpg" id="img3" alt="Joey on Dancing with the Stars" />TLC has a new competition series called <em>Master of Dance</em></a> (worst title ever). The show will test dancers' skills by changing the song mid-performance to measure the breadth of their repertoire and the level of their creativity.

One of the worst is <em>ET's</em> sister show, <em>The Insider</em>. Besides having a despicable host (Pat O'Brien -- what's with that little fake laugh he does all the time?) and the lamest writing this side of a junior high student newspaper, it's also evil and dumb.</p>
<p>Take last night's episode. I don't watch the show, but I didn't get to my remote quick enough to change the channel after the news ended and I caught the teaser opening. They showed singer John Mayer with a gun to his head, a rather raw photograph that looked like it was taken across the street from a bank. Was Mayer being held hostage in a holdup? Was one of Jennifer Aniston's exes there telling him not to see her anymore? OMG! Stay tuned to this breaking news!</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/i-hate-you-insider-tv-show/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>I hate you, Insider TV show</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/i-hate-you-insider-tv-show/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1197759/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/i-hate-you-insider-tv-show/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>access hollywood</category><category>celebs</category><category>entertainment tonight</category><category>gossip</category><category>john mayer</category><category>lara spencer</category><category>pat obrien</category><category>the insider</category><category>tmz</category><dc:creator>Bob Sassone</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 16 May 2008 14:41:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>The five new shows I'm most interested in (based on the upfronts that is)</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/the-5-new-shows-im-most-interested-in-based-on-the-upfronts-th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/the-5-new-shows-im-most-interested-in-based-on-the-upfronts-th/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/the-5-new-shows-im-most-interested-in-based-on-the-upfronts-th/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/programming/" rel="tag">Programming</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/lists/" rel="tag">TV Squad Lists</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/upfronts/" rel="tag">Upfronts</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><p><img width="250" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="194" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/networkupfrontlogo.jpg" alt="network logos" />So the networks have given their <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/upfronts/">upfront presentations</a>. It's not easy to pick which shows look the best. Sure, we can base our judgments on what "type" of show we usually like anyway or a producer that's involved or someone who is in the lead. But we're still just basing it on a description (or <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/tv-week-gives-a-peek-at-cbss-new-shows/">a snippet from each show</a>). It really comes down to the writing and the execution in general.</p>
<p>Having said all that, here are the shows that look great to me, based on the upfront description, the cast and crew involved, and how my tastes run in general.</p>

The series is a dark comedy about rival gangs of suburban housewives. Most recently, Preston had a recurring role on <em>Medium</em>.</p>
<p>Preston will be playing Camilla, the leader of one of the gangs. Other cast members include Kerri Kenney and Rachael Harris. The show is based on a British series that was picked up by the Oxygen network.</p>
<p>The premise of the series sounds good. It's a bit like <em>Desperate Housewives</em> meet <em>Boys In The Hood</em>. I envision a scene in which the housewives rumble like the rival gangs in <em>The Warriors</em>. While the premise works, its success depends on the execution of the idea.</p>
<p>There is one thing that can be confidently said about this new series. The show couldn't possibly be worse that one of she and her husband's previous efforts, <em>Battlefield Earth</em>.</p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/kelly-preston-in-new-hbo-series/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1197380/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/kelly-preston-in-new-hbo-series/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>HBO</category><category>Kelly Preston</category><category>KellyPreston</category><category>Suburban Shootout</category><category>SuburbanShootout</category><dc:creator>Brad Trechak</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 16 May 2008 11:22:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>The Daily Show: May 15, 2008 - VIDEOS</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/the-daily-show-may-15-2008-videos/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/the-daily-show-may-15-2008-videos/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/16/the-daily-show-may-15-2008-videos/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/the-daily-show/" rel="tag">The Daily Show</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="175" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/tdsjonden.jpg" alt="Denis and Jon" />So, John Edwards finally made his <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/washingtondc/la-na-campaign15-2008may15,0,2998660.story">endorsement announcement</a> and it looks like he is a Barack Obama type of guy.

And then that geeky guy came out and corrected Jon. And then I lost cool points.

In short, they really don't bother me. <br /><br />Since I write about TV and movies, I have a work-related TV in my office, and I use those few minutes here and there to slam through some work or get caught up on whatever show I'm recapping. In fact, while watching commercial-free shows on <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/hbo/">HBO</a> and <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/showtime/">Showtime</a>, I actually miss those little interludes. <br /><br />But, apparently, Fox hasn't been peering through my window, because at <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/the-upfronts-fox/">their upfront presentation yesterday morning</a>, they announced their "Remote-Free TV" idea.

<p>Did you really think that <em><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/er/">ER</a> </em>would end its fourteenth season with everything all honky-dory at County General? You haven't watched it recently, have you? Fact is, the season-ender for the last few years has been some sort of cliffhanger. Last season the fate of Neela was unknown. The year before it was Abby and Luka. A few years before that the fates of Pratt and Jing-Mei were undecided.</p>
<p>Now we have two (or three, or four) characters to consider as potential victims. But, who will be the lucky -- or in this case, unlucky -- one who will end up as a patient in their very own Emergency Room when season 15 of <em>ER </em>begins? Let's take a look at the candidates. Oh, by the way, spoilers ahead if you didn't watch the last three minutes of the episode.</p>

Coming out of the comedy club, a woman who wasn't at the show checked me out. I heard her say <em>helloooooo</em> in a guttural way, like I was a really good looking guy. A few seconds later, though, once she got a better look at me, she said, "Never mind." Then, she and her friends laughed for as long as I could hear them.<br /><br />Apparently, I'm only good looking when someone is looking at me out of the corner of her eye.<br /><br />I bring this up not to inform you that I'm unattractive -- my blogger profile photo does a better job of informing you of that than I ever could -- but rather because I didn't think I could be any more depressed than I was after that comment. I honestly thought their derisive laughter was going to be the low-point of my evening.

<p>I don't know what to think anymore. You know, at the end of <em><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/greys-anatomy/">Grey's Anatomy</a></em> when you see the title card for Shonda Rhimes' production company? Have you noticed what it is? Shondaland? It's a roller coaster. How appropriate. I mean, don't get me wrong. Even though I feel like everything on TV is still getting sort of a free pass to some extent due to post writer's strike "hey, at least it's new" syndrome, this was actually a great episode... for the most part. Which I suppose could be interpreted as getting a free pass due to "hey, at least there was a lesbian kiss" syndrome.</p>

Here's a few tidbits from the <a href="http://community.tvguide.com/blog-entry/TV-Show-Blog/Tv-Previews/Offices-Melora-Hardin/800039704">interview</a>: <br />
<ul>
    <li>About Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus, Hardin says that she's acting like a normal fifteen-year-old and "<span class="lw-text">I think it's more a question of her handlers protecting her image."</span></li>
    <li>Melora Hardin also talks about her new movie (which her husband wrote and she directed) called <em>You</em>. It's a coming of age story about a father and daughter. Hardin, her husband, her parents, and her children are in it. <span class="lw-text"></span></li>
    <li><span class="lw-text">Hardin admits that she herself has had an office relationship. Her husband! She met him at a wrap party, "</span><span class="lw-text">So I guess you could consider that an office romance, being that wrap parties are part of my office setting." </span><br /></li>

I'm grateful that shows like <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Lost/" style="font-style: italic;">Lost</a> still have new episodes, but the second half of this TV season hasn't felt the same. I especially miss the promising new series that were cut short. <br /><br />It feels like other shows have been on hiatus forever. <span style="font-style: italic;">Flight of the Conchords</span> was supposed to return this year, but had its premiere pushed back until 2009. I miss Bret, Jemaine, and their strange circle of friends. I've been wondering about the fates of several absent characters lately. So many storylines were left unresolved. <br /><br />Here's a short list of some of the faces I can't wait to see again:<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/characters-im-missing-right-now/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Characters I'm missing right now</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/characters-im-missing-right-now/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1188929/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/characters-im-missing-right-now/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>charlie day</category><category>CharlieDay</category><category>curb your enthusiasm</category><category>CurbYourEnthusiasm</category><category>dirty sexy money</category><category>DirtySexyMoney</category><category>flight of the concho...</category><category>FlightOfTheConcho...</category><category>Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia</category><category>ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia</category><category>kristin chenoweth</category><category>KristinChenoweth</category><category>pushing daisies</category><category>PushingDaisies</category><category>Rhys Darby</category><category>RhysDarby</category><category>Shawn Michael Patrick</category><category>ShawnMichaelPatrick</category><category>susie essman</category><category>SusieEssman</category><dc:creator>Erin Martell</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 15 May 2008 13:23:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>RuPaul's Drag Race heads to Logo</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/rupauls-drag-race-heads-to-logo/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/rupauls-drag-race-heads-to-logo/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/rupauls-drag-race-heads-to-logo/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality/" rel="tag">Other Reality Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/web/" rel="tag">Web</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/pickups-and-renewals/" rel="tag">Pickups and Renewals</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="215" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/rupaul_051508.jpg" alt="RuPaul" />What must it be like to be RuPaul?

Then, <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/14/us/politics/14dems.html?bl&amp;ex=1210996800&amp;en=184fe9e64c13a342&amp;ei=5087%0A">West Virginia</a> happened and Hillary Clinton totally crushed Obama in the state's primary. It may have had something to do with her hard work, her working class base, or because a lot of West Virginians are xenophobic. It's Obama's own fault for being a super-secret Muslim.

The network executives who are his masters have decided to give Duane "Dog" Chapman a second chance after he was caught on tape saying racial slurs about one of his son's girlfriends. A&amp;E spokeman Michael Feeney even said that he believed Chapman wasn't a racist.<br /><br />The show involves Chapman and his crew (which includes his fifth wife Beth and some of his kids) chasing down bail jumpers in Hawaii and other states. He previously had gotten in trouble with the Mexican government for his actions (bounty hunting is illegal in that country).<br /><br />When I think of <em>Dog the Bounty Hunter</em>, I tend to think of the satire done on an episode of<em> South Park </em>when Cartman played Dog (loved it when Cartman parodied the philosophical rhetoric of Chapman which he does while taking prisoners to jail). <span style="font-weight: bold;">Reruns will begin on A&amp;E on June 25th with original episodes starting a few weeks later.</span><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/dog-the-bounty-hunter-gets-a-new-leash-on-life/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1195976/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/15/dog-the-bounty-hunter-gets-a-new-leash-on-life/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>AE</category><category>beth chapman</category><category>BethChapman</category><category>Dog the Bounty Hunter</category><category>dog the bounty hunter renewed</category><category>DogTheBountyHunter</category><category>DogTheBountyHunterRenewed</category><category>Duane Chapman</category><category>racial slur</category><dc:creator>Brad Trechak</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 15 May 2008 09:45:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>America's Next Top Model: And the Winner Is...

More on that after the jump.</p>
<p><em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0365983/">Married to the Kellys</a></em> was a sitcom that ran on Friday nights on ABC during the 2003-04 season, part of their TGIF comedy lineup. But I think this show stood out as something for adults more than kids. It starred Breckin Meyer as a New York City writer who publishes his first novel and decides to keep his promise to his wife and move (he thought she meant move from the Village to the Upper West Side, not "America"). Now, this is where the usual big city guy vs. Kansas jokes come into play, but that's just half of the show.</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/14/short-lived-shows-married-to-the-kellys-videos/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Short-Lived Shows: Married to the Kellys - VIDEOS</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/14/short-lived-shows-married-to-the-kellys-videos/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1194751/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/14/short-lived-shows-married-to-the-kellys-videos/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>abc</category><category>breckin meyer</category><category>kansas</category><category>kiele sanchez</category><category>lost</category><category>married to the kellys</category><category>sam anderson</category><category>tgif</category><dc:creator>Bob Sassone</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 14 May 2008 13:05:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>The Daily Show: May 13, 2008 - VIDEOS</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/14/the-daily-show-may-13-2008-videos/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/14/the-daily-show-may-13-2008-videos/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/14/the-daily-show-may-13-2008-videos/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/the-daily-show/" rel="tag">The Daily Show</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="203" border="0" align="right" alt="Jon Stewart" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/vodkavote.jpg" />Supreme Court Justice <a href="http://www.c-spanarchives.org/library/index.php?main_page=product_video_info&amp;products_id=205000-1">Antonin Scalia</a> recently appeared on CSPAN's <em>Q&amp;A</em> and grumpily talked about <em>The Daily Show</em>'s childish material. I always remember Scalia as one of the only people that cracked up on camera during Stephen Colbert's 2006 White House Correspondents Dinner performance, so I still like to pretend that he's secretly a <em>TDS/TCR</em> fan. Also, does anyone else here have the <em>America </em>book? My copy has an unusual tendency to open right on the naked Supreme Court when I just randomly pick a page.
