I didn't realize that Wilfred, the F/X sitcom with a guy in a dog suit, was based on a British show, but IFC is showing the orig UK version.

A very young Lisa Vanderpump (from RHOBH) starred in the video for ABC's "Poison Arrow".  ABC rules!

And if you had Playboy Club in the first-new-show-to-get-cancelled pool... you're a winner!

Meant to post about last nite's brilliant South Park ep, the sequel to the mid-season cliffhanger from a few months back.  Absolutely tremendous, not to mention quite profound, and i believe it's being repeated tonite.  They're geniuses, truly.

Well, you can't accuse them of not listening to their consumers. The name Qwikster was beyond lame.

No kidding. It sounded like something they came up with in about 10 minutes while sitting on the can.

Actually, they prob found all the good names were taken...  except Qwikster (and Clownpenis.fart).  And maybe this guy wanted too much $ for the 'qwikster' twitter name:

Add ABC's Charlie's Angels reboot to the list of cancelled new fall shows. Also: Playboy Club and Free Agents (NBC); How to be a Gentleman (CBS) and a reality show on the CW called H8R (yeah, "hater", heh).

So I've been watching the Mary Tyler Moore reruns on MeTV (Comcast Ch 31) ...

God-DAMMITT! Channel 31 (actually channel 50 from Santa Rosa, KFTY) has been sold and they just switched to AztecaAmerica today. No more MTM, Newhart, etc. And the "Chuckles Bites the Dust" ep of MTM was coming up this week.  I'm majorly pissed right now.

ETA: rumor has it that Channel 42 (KTNC, currently Spanish) and Channel 38 (KCNS, currently running RTV, which is similar but inferior to Me-TV) are both "possibly interested" in picking up Me-TV.

well, it took a few weeks, but KOFY TV-20 has picked up Me-TV and will be running it on one of their digital subchannels (20.2) very soon. Still up-in-the-air is whether Comcast will find room to carry it (I *think* they're legally required to carry anything that's over-the-air but I could be wrong).
