[TV orNotTV] LA Times story on child labor on reality TV

This article is a good example of why Harry Shearer refers to the times as the dog trainer. Their research seemed to consist of watching the TV shows, talking to a handful of people who work on those shows, as well as a few advocates and one politician. But they didn't seem to talk to any labor law

Re: [TV orNotTV] Re: Leno ties Letterman in the demo, only 0.1 point higher than Conan's worst

Craig has supposedly had some input on his musical guests, based on bands he's seen around L.A. Having been a punk rocker back in the day, this makes some sense. He's also asked at least one guest (Alicia Witt) to come back and perform as the music guest. She's supposed to be on July 1. Rob

Re: [TV orNotTV] Paul McKenna returns to US TV

Paul McKenna went to my school a few years before me, and he absolutely loathed it - he mentions this frequently in interviews. I, on the other hand, really liked it. I think that explains my dislike of McKenna who started out as a radio DJ. (Alfred Hitchcock also went to my school. But he's one o
