New idiot box favorites

Recently I’ve been watching a lot more TV than usual. Some of my new addictions include:
Deadliest Catch - Discovery Channel:

The only thing more impressive than the fishermen on the show is the crazy camera crews on the boats. I have a new appreciation for seafood after watching this show.
Ninja Warrior - G4TV:

Typically, I really dislike [...]


Jon Stewart analyzes the media blame game

While I followed the Virginia Tech shootings rather intensely for the first few days, I stopped watching the cable networks within 24 hours of the story breaking. Why? Well, look no further than The Daily Show with Jon Stewart:

Reflections on Frontline’s “News War” series

I haven’t been a big watcher of PBS since “Seasme Street” and “Mister Roger’s Neighborhood,” but after watching the last 15 minutes or so of Frontline’s “News War” series on the local PBS affiliate, I just had to watch the rest of the episodes.

If you’re a regular member of the Jack Bauer Power Hour, then you already know that tonight at 7 p.m. (central) will be the start of the sixth season of “24″ in full glory. Yes, I’m aware the first four episodes of the season have been leaked on BitTorrent, but I’m all about waiting.

The show takes place in a fictional futuristic Japan where people still wear kimonos and gis and swords are as commonplace as rocket-propelled grenades. It’s animated in the distinct anime/Japanese style and features all the goodness you’d expect [...]
