Remotely Diverting

I'm going to keep an eye on Too Much Free Time - a collaborative TV weblog from Freakgirl, Johnny and Max. Nice job, people! This will join the hundred or so other TV-related websites that I check regularly. TV Tattle is the king, of course - possibly the best single-subject weblog around (they need to update their logo, however!). Also, lurking the reader forums at TV Barn and Television Without Pity are becoming dangerously addictive activities for me lately.

All this TV reading is odd, since 'The Simpsons' is the only prime-time network show that we watch on a regular basis. Not that we're TV deprived, however. Lately, we've been getting into Cops. You can't flip through the channels without finding at least one 'Cops' running, they're everywhere. Out of curiosity, we counted up the number of 'Cops' repeats broadcast in a week - and it was something like 110!

Another show I dig: VH1's Bands Reunited. Could've been cheesy, turned out fascinating. In the two installments I saw (Berlin and Romeo Void) the participants seemed humbled and even surprised that someone wanted a reunion, and the resulting concerts are happy occasions. '80s music freaks rejoice!
