Man, television has been sparse since Memorial Day. How sparse? I’ve found myself watching I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! … on more than one occasion. Yes, yes, I hate myself. Let’s move on. Anyway, this week we have some Speidi antics, television vs. having friends, relationships, and virgin diaries. As always, feel […]
This week’s column is all about new shows. Well, kind of. The Tonight Show certainly isn’t new, but Conan O’Brien hosting it sure is. I take a look at that, examine jungle morality with Frangela, and decide if The Listener is worth watching. Conan’s first day on the job I’ve been super-excited about the prospect […]

Plus, the Silas/Megan storyline went to a weird place, and I pretty much lost all understanding […]
