I'm ticked off at NBC. They've canceled the best show featuring a cheesy mustache since Evening Shade!*
That's right..they've dumped My Name is Earl. A show that was so smart at being stupid that the network execs weren't smart enough to understand! (Huh?)
Some of the things I loved about Earl:
1. Perfect use of classic rock music (and no songs by the Fray were ever played!)
2. Super-cool guest stars (Betty White as a crazy homicidal lunatic!)
3. Outlandish plots (Crab-man's identity is blown so the witness protection program gives him, Joy and the kids new ones...and sends them somewhere worse than Camden County!)
4. Love for our tiny animal friends (the bond between Crab-man and Mr. Turtle knew no bounds!)
5. Great cliff-hangers. Who was the father of Joy's youngest boy if it wasn't Crab-man? Now we will never know!
There's an effort to save Earl on Twitter. If you're into that whole Tweeting thing, check it out and sign the "twitition" here. *Evening Shade: 1980's sitcom featuring Burt Reynolds. How could you forget?

One of the rules for Beatles fans is that you must memorize tidbits of Beatle trivia to try and impress other Beatle fans. This is not that easy to do....as things like...
In 1968, Jeannie C. Riley topped both the pop and country charts with "Harper Valley PTA". She was the first female singer to accomplish that feat and it wasn't repeated until Dolly Parton did it in 1981 with the song "9 to 5". The song was...
This week we're doing story songs on the World's Worst iPod. We start with the story of Billy who really wanted to be a hero. He was a hero, but didn't live to see it and his girlfriend was pretty angry. The song was originally done by...
This week' s Gabby's Pick is another track from emerging artist ZZ Ward's debut album , called "365 Days."
In addition to all the radio airplay " Put The Gun Down" has received, you may also have heard her music on several television...
Apparently Oreo flavored Oreos are not sufficient.
Nabisco is continuing its trend of introducing special limited edition flavors for its Oreo cookies. Last year, the internet was all abuzz about candy corn Oreos, which supposedly didn't really...
One small detail I like about Bonnaroo ... the security people's shirts say "Safety" and "Here to help". They seem well-trained and they do the things security folk do ... but I like the emphasis on safety and that they're doing these things...
