First, this is obviously NOT The Daily Show:

Next, a quote from a recent LA Times article regarding the WGA picketing on Wall Street:
“Besides, said alliance spokeswoman Barbara Brogliatti, the anticipated $1 billion a year for video downloading by 2011 still will be dwarfed by projected sales of as much as $20.7 billion worth of ‘old-fashioned’ [...]

Veronica Mars - The Season That Was Not to Be.
JK Parkin at the Newsarama blog has lots of interesting tidbits. Max Headroom as Moloch the Mystic, Darla in the new Punisher movie, images and videos from the set of Incredible Hulk (which apparently has a shitty script)… all sorts of cool stuff, but one thing really set off my fanboy alarms - The [...]

More on the WGA Strike, or Why Writers Love Steve Carell
Derek Powazek has displayed what I hope is an unintentional misunderstanding and mischaracterization of why the WGA is on strike.

Curses!
I shouldn’t have been browsing blogs during commercial breaks from Heroes, but I did it anyway.
My punishment was reading this spoiler from Tball’s TVGuide regarding the identity of Adam Monroe and the ending to tonight’s episode.
