The long wait is finally over - my favorite new show from the 2006-2007 season returns tonight on CBS! Huzzah!

Despite the fact that I woke up feeling like the Sandman had curb-stopped me over a steel sander, I am in good spirits. Long Live Jericho! (or, you know, let all seven of the new episodes be good and actually make it over the airwaves - I'll take that, too)

Sarah Silverman actually managed to find the funny...

I'm not a big Silverman fan. I think her show is unintelligible and most of her humor is too potty. Give the Jew Girl Toys is inspired, though, and this is certainly in the same vein. Bravo!

They really need to release the full series on DVD. If I can get excited about geriatric Head pimping trivial technological upgrades, then I'm clearly still jazzed to see the ol' boy in action.

(Yes, I could have gone with geriatric Max, but it's not as funny.)

"The rise of the cartel has been a long time coming (and it still has some way to go). It represents the grand convergence of the previously disparate US culture industries--many of them vertically monopolized already--into one global superindustry providing most of our imaginary "content.""

As I get back into my groove on 10kB in a run-up to finishing the book, I came across some media that perfectly exemplifies Spycraft's emphasis on skill over stats...and the interrogation dramatic conflict (read more to see video).

Just to warm you up a bit for Crucible...
