There's something vaguely puzzling about the new season of "Scrubs" (8 p.m. Central Tuesday, ABC; two and a half stars). You see, this new-ish iteration of the show is sort of a sequel to the long-running medical comedy and sort of a continuation of it too. Forgive me, I can't resist ...

Breakups usually lead to identity crises. Our divorce from Oprah Winfrey should be no different. Let’s face it, both Oprah and Chicago have gotten a lot from each other. Love her or hate her, she helped define the Windy City for almost three decades. Even if she appears on a new show on her ...
