In my haste to get out of the office on Friday, I neglected to link to my column about Oprah Winfrey deciding to end her syndicated talk show. At this late date, this post is mainly an excuse to quote one of my favorite Liz Lemon lines.

You may have noticed that the blog logo has changed again. After last week's discussion , I've decided to do a new post each week announcing that a new logo has been posted, and inviting everybody to speculate on what it is. After a few days - or, at least, after enough people have very clearly ...

A review of the "Curb Your Enthusiasm" finale
(and the quasi-"Seinfeld" finale contained within) coming up just

Yesterday from around 4:30 on was a particularly busy time on the blog. Not only did I have all four NBC comedies to watch and review, plus a "Fringe" I'd seen in advance, but ABC and NBC announced the respective premiere dates and timeslots for "Lost" and "Chuck" right as I was getting ready ...

Quick thoughts on last night's "30 Rock" coming up just as soon as I take a low-volume shower with Ed Begley Jr... This was the strongest overall Thursday this season for NBC's comedies, and "Sun Tea" brought the evening to a fine close. Not all of it worked, but enough of it did (in that ...

Spoilers for last night's "The Office" coming up just as soon as I feel lacrimose... Michael Scott believes he is a performer at heart, and "Shareholders Meeting" put him - and the show - on the biggest stage to date. It's one thing for Michael to make a fool of himself in front of the branch ...

Spoilers for "Parks and Recreation" - and if you missed it earlier, go check out Amy Poehler's favorite moments so far (complete with clips) - coming up just as soon as I peg you as a user of mouth tobacco... "Guys love it when you can show them you're better than they are at something they ...

Spoilers for "Community" coming up just as soon as I rest gently on your pecs... This was a really strong night for all four of NBC's comedies, and this week I think "Community" was my favorite of the bunch. I'm always more kindly disposed to comedies with multiple storylines if they find a ...

Spoilers for tonight's "Fringe" coming up just as soon as I add "messy" to the APB... I've been waiting half the day to write this review, frequently procrastinating on other projects (like the return of "Lost" ), even though I watched a screener of "August" yesterday and could have banged it ...

Just got off the phone with "Chuck" co-creator Chris Fedak, who was very pumped about the early premiere date , and the fact that they'll get to produce six additional episodes, bringing season 3's total up to 19. If you've read any of my previous conversations with Chris, you'll also know ...

Still more awesome premiere date news: "Chuck" will be coming back ahead of schedule, debuting with back to back episodes on Sunday, January 10 from 9-11, then airing a third episode in its new/old regular timeslot, Mondays at 8, on Jan. 11. Still no word on whether there will be additional ...

As first reported by Daily Variety's Michael Schneider , then confirmed by ABC, "Lost" will be back on Tuesday, Feb. 2 at 9 p.m. with a two-hour premiere for the sixth and final season. The regular timeslot will be Tuesdays from 9-10. Several reasons to applaud this move: 1)There is nothing on ...

Some quick thoughts on last night's "Cougar Town" coming up just as soon as I grow a weird mustache... After the last episode brought all the characters together for Jules' backyard BBQ, "Two Gunslingers"(*) goes back to segregating the men into one plot and the women in the other. And it ...

Spoilers for last night's "Modern Family" coming up just as soon as I slut it up with Driving Miss Daisy... The concept of sweeps months (using November, February and May to help set ad rates for the next year) is outdated and silly, but the networks still pay attention to them because their ...

In today's column, I write about my visit Monday to the set of "Boardwalk Empire," HBO's upcoming drama - produced by Martin Scorsese and Terence Winter, who was one of David Chase's right-hand men on "The Sopranos" - about gangsters in Atlantic City at the dawn of Prohibition. The outdoor ...

Ever since I unveiled the blog logo (designed, again, by blog reader/commenter David Loehr ), I frequently get questions from people (either on the blog or on Twitter) asking me to either explain the theme, or to identify one or more of the four people (the worst was when a bunch of you didn't ...
