Death by TV: TV sucks. Except for Six Feet Under and Seinfeld reruns. The Always Delightful Chrissy recommends Andy Richter Rules the Universe, which is pretty good and will probably get better, but I seem to remember there always being a couple of nights a week I didn't want to miss. Now it's all reality shows and dramas such as West Wing that are so full of self-importance they make me want to gag. As I write this, The Court, a drama with Sally Field as a supreme court justice, is about to debut. 1) Spoon. 2) Eye socket. 3) Gouge.

And I UTTERLY DESPISE the miserable sycophants who are employed as TV critics. They watch that tedious, mind-numbing tripe and declare it to be "ground-breaking" or some other breathless cliche. Get a real job.
