Hey, Brigitte here with TV Squad Daily. I'll be covering the TV stories I find interesting each day, Monday through Friday, in this video blog.

Today on TV Squad Daily:

• David Beckham may be coming to L.A. even sooner than originally planned.
  
• This is awkward: Rick Schroder wants us to start calling him "Ricky" again.
  
• CBS and YouTube teamed up to give everyone a shot at 15 seconds of fame. Will someone please say something original? Anyone?
  

The video's embedded below, or you can download the file directly (Quicktime required). You can also subscribe to this vodcast via our feed.

This is such a load of crap.

CBS is launching a new campaign through YouTube called "15 Seconds" in which users can upload a fifteen second personal message that might possibly be shown on the CBS television network. That's nice and all, except for YouTube's dumb rule about not being able to use nudity or profanity. That might be fine for some people, but nudity and profanity is the only way I know how to express myself. Just the other day I walked into the local supermarket with my pants around my ankles and screamed, "where are the damn apples?"

Anyway, CBS will pick five videos from the YouTube site to be posted on CBS.com, and at least one video from that group will be selected for broadcast on CBS for every television quarter. The first video will be played during CBS' pre-game coverage of Super Bowl XLI on February 4.
