Jeff found a list of the 25 worst TV Sitcoms as compiled by TV Crunch.
As you might guess from that piece of information, I’m asking you to list your picks for the seven worst TV Sitcoms. You don’t to choose any from that particular list…consider it an idea starter…but if you agree with any of those selections, feel free to use them.

First to play last week: Linda of Huffington Post and elsewhere. Congratulations!

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION:
Name your picks for the seven worst TV Sitcoms.
Either answer the question in …

I need to get some housework done. I’ve needed to get housework done all day, but I’ve managed to do anything but, including battling a credit card company’s stupid stubbornness.
But the need to straighten up relates, in part, to this week’s set of questions.

I keep getting someone else’s mail. It is actually a neighbor of mine, according to the address. But it’s not mine, so I’d just as soon not have it making surprise appearances in my mailbox.
This neighbor, named John, seemed nice enough when I handed him past months’ credit card bills and politely suggested that he call the credit card company, Capital One, to get the address corrected. But on the other hand, I don’t know for sure that the person who claimed to be John actually was; …

“Ten On” is just taking a week off.  It’ll probably be back next week.

That’s essentially the question posed by The New York Times’ TV Decoder blog, in pointing out that ABC’s new reality series, Wipeout, just became the highest-rated new show of the summer.
The premise of the show, according to the blog, is that families compete for cash and prizes by making their way through a mud-filled obstacle course.
There are those who genuinely think such programs mean society’s destruction who blame the media for that. “If they’d stop showing such awful programs,” these people might say, “things would be a lot better.”
“What …

MSNBC’s Green Machine, a hybrid vehicle equipped with editing and live technology, suffered a hiccup on the air while covering midwest flooding the other day:

Bet it wouldn’t have happened on a Mac!

Barack Obama’s campaign responded to criticism over a seal emulating the Seal of the United States, a symbol of the president, and seems to have retired it.  Some McCain supporters called Obama’s use of the seal “presumptuous.”  I’ll assume they will react with equal shock and horror the next time their man, the Maverick, is introduced as “the next President of the United States.”  (Although I won’t be holding my breath to await such a moment.)

“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
—George Carlin

George Carlin was one of a kind. And that’s the saddest part of his sudden death on Sunday of heart failure.
When I was little, I remember seeing Carlin on HBO specials. I was too young to remember the Al Sleet (hippie dippie weatherman) routines from the Carson and Sullivan shows. And by the time he had made his way to HBO, his shows were of an unapologetically adult fashion. …

You’ve heard Pringle’s Potato Chips’ advertising slogan, “Once you pop, you can’t, you can’t, you can’t stop.” There are several foods like this for me: once I have a taste, I just can’t stop until it’s all gone, or until I go through a phase of having entirely too much of it too often.
I’m sure I’m not the only one when it comes to certain foods.
So I encourage all of you to answer the question, then push yourselves away from the table, or out of that far-too-comfortable easy …

The past few days here in Charleston, we’ve had some pretty powerful storms move through.  They’re nothing like what the midwest is dealing with, and the worst of them, so far, has been a spectacular lightning show.
There’s that old phrase about “raining cats and dogs,” and there were a few moments where the rain was pounding down so hard that it might qualify for such a description.  But only for a few moments.
Adam, who recently stopped by to play one of the weekend memes, survived a storm recently powerful enough …

It was somewhat stormy here in Charleston, although there wasn’t as much rain as the growl of thunder much of the afternoon would have made one expect. When lightning is around, especially if it is as intense as it was yesterday, I try to avoid the computer.
That’s why this week’s list of six questions is a bit late.  Here’s to better weather for tomorrow.

For those worried that I would forget, I’m happy to prove you wrong with another collection of ten weekly links. You’re welcome to post ten of your own, and link here if you do!
1. ARE YOU PRIVILEGED?: Over at Kidswriter’s Blog, there’s a test to determine how privileged you are. It’s one of those lists where you publish the entire thing, then set the individual items that apply to you in bold type. There are some items on the list that seem a little questionable to me: …
