    The Office, 30 Rock, My Name is Earl, Law & Order, SNL, SNF.

    Chuck and My Own Worst Enemy are guilty pleasures. From what I've seen, Life's pretty good. Heroes was incredible for one season.

    IMO, the only serious competition is FOX. Really don't like pretty much any of ABC's stuff and CBS consists of recycled CSI-ish programs and bad comedies.

    I'll take NCIS and Criminal Minds over any of those shows just named.

    Giving people less for more? For his next trick, he'll run a newspaper.

    Lost.

    Gray's Anatomy still has some good weeks.

    Boston Legal.

    Eli Stone (yes, I know).

    Desperate Housewives.

    Pushing Daisies.

    ABC takes the prize for most "shows that think outside the box." Has since they greenlit Twin peaks. Largely Hit or miss, sure. But they're not recycling ideas like "gritty" cop shows, since they already had that in NYPD Blue.

    As for this Leno move: bonehead. Will last maybe two seasons, just because they'll stick wth it based on the money they'll invest.

    As for Conan . . .as long as Max Weinberg can mix in some more world tours, I'm happy. [/Springsteendorks]

    I'll take CBS' comedies over NBC's any day of the week (and in my DVD collection).

    The Big Bang Theory is the best new comedy on TV in the last two years. Period.

    Tough to support that argument when they have The Office and 30 Rock.

    Considering The Office is a knock-off from the BBC and 30 Rock is a take-off of another NBC show, I'll stand by my statement. They're both good shows, no doubt, but I wouldn't exactly call NBC ordering them as series inspired.

    Paging dog; we need you to open another whoop-ass can for NBC.

    Zucker and Silverman are running this once-proud network into the ground.

    That's awesome for Leno. Now he can explain all his jokes after he tells them to a much wider audience.

    But the Headlines gravy train ends in about 18 months.

    Does this mean people will start going to bed 90 minutes earlier each night?
