"You might incur some wrath from the powers that be, but so what?" — Helen Thomas
Helen Thomas has had the unique experience of covering every president since JFK from the front row of the Beltway press corps. She began the tradition of ending each presidential press conferences with a signature "Thank you, Mr. President." Fittingly, this is the title of
a documentary about her career that will premiere on HBO tonight.

It's that time of year again. Another set of eyerolls, meaningful stares, and semi-contrived situations. Another heap of friend breakups, nightclub-hopping, and drama.

What do you get when a raunchy, dirty, frequently inappropriate TV event meets one of the raunchiest, dirtiest, most inappropriate comedians of a generation. Awesomeness — and a stomach that aches with pain from too much laughter. And that's why I'm not-so-secretly looking forward to tonight's roast of Bob Saget on Comedy Central.
If you haven't heard yet, Bob Saget is a major dirty perv of a comedian.
Gossip Girl encountered its fair share of criticism about its sex, drugs, and other vaguely inappropriate content when it premiered last Fall. But frankly, the Upper East Siders have nothing on the cast of
Skins, the British show that premieres Sunday on BBC America. This show takes the limits of American TV and stomps all over them — and that's even without the edited-out language and nudity.

Man, I would be so much more excited about tonight's showdown on
America's Best Dance Crew if Fanny Pak were still in the competition. I admit I was somewhat of an erratic viewer of ABDC this Summer, but week in and week out, the thing that kept me coming back (or at least watching the old episodes I'd TiVo'd) was the Pak. And yet somehow, my favorite crew headed home last week, a combination of viewer votes and tough judging.
