Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Ah, Ugly Betty. When Salma's on my TV, it's usually an awards show, so I was wondering which one I was missing.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I mean, assless chaps.

Aren't all chaps assless? Otherwise, wouldn't they be pants? My dad has chaps. With fringe, even.

I'm in total agreement on Selma Hayak's rack. I recorded tonight's episode and can't wait to watch.

Rudolph Guiliani is stumping for Ken Blackwell--I just saw an ad. Bleh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think you only call chaps "assless" when there are no jeans under them. Which a real cowgirl would NEVER do.

OK, I'm going to brave CSI with Alan Tudyk in a role I'm not sure I can stand to see him but will try because I miss seeing him. Anyone else?

I'm taping it. Looks good.

I'm watching!

I'm watching, too!

Of course, in that case, there is ASS! The term is verra misleading.

Art Crawl!!!

I'm going to watch c.s.i. on Demand. (I'm watching SPN now.)

Top Chef: I can't belive that the same TWO people won the quickfire and the elimination challenge two weeks in a row.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Bah. Guess who is staying at work until at least 8PM, because traffic is messed up to where the bus ride home would take at least 90 minutes? It's a good thing that today's round of nagging e-mails to the writers actually prompted them to hand off some conten, else I'd have nothing to do right now.

Ann, that's a ferret.

To put tommyrot's quote in context, from the same article:

CNN has also been down steeply this year in total viewers and 25-54s but not as much as Fox, and in October its 25-54 primetime audience was essentially flat at down 1 percent.

And both Headline News and MSNBC were actually up in that demo last month, by 18 percent and 19 percent.

So, yeah, indicators say that's likely the reason.
