    Of course, Linda Cardellini is wearing a form-fitting green tank top.

    I like green.

    I honestly didn't think they still made new episodes. Of course, I never once watched the old ones, so maybe I'm not in the right demographic.

    Suck it Hoops! My wife is watching it and I'm just waiting for it to end so I can watch Scrubs.

    And if NBC has BYH Week, Elliotte will decide clothing is optional.

    I still watch ER. I figure that I've watched it long enough, so I'm in it until the miserable slow death of an end. It's been a little better this season than in the past few years.

    You're still burning fossil fuels, though, just in another form.

    My favorite part was the segment of Heroes where they showed the actor who plays Sylar and the actor who plays the kid who controls TVs planting a small tree in a large flower pot.

    Plant a small tree, save the world.

    Well, not me personally. But yeah. I wouldn't get the car for the environmental reasons as much as I would for the smooth ride and better gas mileage. I'll pick up the trash along the sidewalk, but I'm not going to purchase a vehicle to try and help save the earth.

    Take a look at NBC's schedule and more than half of it is post-consumer (recycled) content from foreign ripoffs of Deal or No Deal and The Office to remakes of The Bionic Woman and Quantum Leaf, I mean Journeyman. They are getting a lot of mileage out of not a lot of originality. Who else could package promos for a Jerry Seinfeld animated movie into "content?" Read the Esquire article on their new programming chief Ben Silverman, he doesn't come off very well.
