Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

It makes me sad.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Holy crap, y'all. I just learned what comes next: "I'm A Celebrity, But I Want To Be A Pop Star." I shit you not.

PS: Steph -- EAT IT!!!!

Why is FOX only running all of twelve episodes of the Simpsons, across three episodes a day? I've seen the same damned episodes going on four or five times in just the last month.

They used to pick from the whole run, dammit! I need variety. There's only like fifteen fucking seasons to pick from.

Hah. I think the guy on Hit Me Baby looks frighteningly like Guy Smiley on Sesame Street. He just needs a thick turtleneck to make it complete.

I'm saddened by how not good Shannon was, singing one of my all-time favorite songs. Whereas Juice Newton sounded so much like herself of 24 years ago that I would have taken that for the original studio recording if I hadn't been watching her perform. Later, she'll be singing an Ashlee Simpson song (performed live for the first time EVER!)

Seriously, is it my imagination or is this the worst Hit Me Baby EVAR?

Luckily, it's almost time for Being Bobby Brown. That couldn't possibly be a HUGE TRAINWRECK, or anything.

Has anyone heard about this show: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/threshold/k?

It has a great cast, but a dubious premise and it's on CBS.

I've only seen parts of 2 others. And yeah, this one, not so hot.
