WTF!?!? A Bomb didn't hit the TV station, did it?

Look, my week has been pretty shitty, and the

last thing I like to do at the end of a difficult day

is dwell on Real World problems and upset.

I like to Veg-out. I like to get lost in fantasy.

I like to drop out for a while so my mind can numb.

Now, granted, my week hasn't been 'lose-an-arm in a bomb'

bad or 'face-full-of-shrapnel' bad, but it's not a fucking

contest and my stress needs dealing with, so...

I was more than a tad annoyed when I tuned in to see

"Revolution" Monday night, only to find it preempted by

more NBC News lack-of-coverage and anything-but-fact-finding.

(Don't get me started on non-stop space-filler 'coverage' of

tragedies where inanities abound. And yes, I was hoping to

escape real-life strife by watching fictional strife; sue me!)

So I heard there was a great ep of "Independent Lens" featuring

the history of Wonder Woman on instead! Eureka!

A solution! I haven't been abandoned by the TV goddesses!

Helllllllll to the No!

They aired (locally, at least) a god-damned episode

about Fort Lauderdale and the history of tarpon fishing!
(Or something to that effect; I was so upset about the

pre-empting, I didn't linger to get the whole scoop!)

All I know is, that by tonight, I better have

some fricking "Happy Endings" on the tube, or there

may be some more upset on the streets soon enough!

Dammit--I ask for so very little!
How much endless cycling or horrible images do

people really need, anyway!!??

Just in case you share my tastes and are

not familiar with any of these great shows,

do yourself a favor and check them out.

I love truly edgy comedy, fast-paced and witty,

and that has become the standard-bearer for

new comedies and commentary shows.

Chelsea's Blog

Sassafrass Chelsea, Chuy, and a cadre of crazy,

outspoken comedians take on current events

and interview someone famous (or infamous.)

Get your news on with the crack team of

oddballs delivering a fresh spin--and plenty of deserved

Fox-bashing--on all the political and societal insanity.

Catch up on this quirky, dark show that gives 'Lost'

and 'Twin Peaks' a run for their money! It's in

reruns for the summer. Good suspense/action.

Cute, fun, low-maintenance but high-energy show

on the CW. Great banter and writing.

On PBS, watch incredible documentaries which

spotlight ever-changing points of view. A

tremendous insight.

Hilarious new show with sad-sack cast of

zanies...and the hot guy below, too!

Stephen Schneider

A gut-busting laugh-fest with catty, over-the-top

zingers and commentary. No one is safe.

Get your Bitch on!

(Her Queen Latifah comment last night had me

on the floor...and I LOVE the Queen!)

"There's nothing sacred here!" indeed!

Possibly my favorite amazing ensemble; their comedic

timing is unbelievable. Funnier than you can

imagine, and a real envelope-pusher.
