Happy Fourth of July!

Seven greatest hand cannons in TV history

Filed under: Other Drama Shows, Other Comedy Shows, OpEd, TV Squad Lists, Reality-Free, Star Trek: Original Series, Burn Notice

There are a lot of really horrible things that have put America on the map: Jerry Springer, our ability to infuse anything edible with cheese, the fact that we're probably working on infusing something inedible with cheese.

Guns, however, shouldn't be one of them. The Second Amendment stands as one of many great testaments to the idea of freedom that our forefathers envisioned for their people. They felt a government should trust their people with great responsibility if they truly believed in the concept of freedom and democracy.

Sure, if they came to the present and saw that we primarily use that responsibility for hunting moose from helicopters and negotiating with the Domino's guy they might take it right back, but the idea is what's important.

So to celebrate one of America's latest of many birthday to come because fireworks are technically illegal in my neck of the woods, here are your TV's seven greatest guns.

Drew Carey's got a blog... and TPiR "fans" have
already ticked him off

Filed under: OpEd, Daytime, Watercooler Talk, Celebrities, Game Show, Reality-Free

Ya gotta give Drew Carey a lot of credit. Going into his third season on The Price is Right, he's been able to step in the shoes of an icon, Bob Barker, and do a good job. He's also his part to drag the 38-year-old show into the 21st century, whether it wants to be here or not.

A couple of weeks ago, Drew simultaneously started a blog called Drew From TV, and a Twitter feed called TPIRHost, essentially to talk about his backstage experiences at TPiR, and whatever else he happens to think about (he soon started a second Twitter feed called DrewFromTV so he could muse on politics, soccer, and his other interests without associating it with the show).

CROSSING ZONE: WELCOME TO GIANT WORLD

The traditional Fourth of July marathon of 'Twilight Zone' episodes on Sci-Fi will be over in the middle of the night. This year, they tweaked the format a bit by including a batch of episodes from the 1980s version of the show at the beginning of the marathon.

A few hours ago Sci-Fi aired "The Invaders", the classic episode with Agnes Moorehead; probably one of the top five stories told on the show.

I've probably mentioned this before; but what the hell, I'm going to do it again.

Although "The Invaders" was broadcast first (27 January 1961), in the Toobworld timeline it takes place after the debut episode of the TV series 'Land Of The Giants' (22 September 1968). US Air Force Space Probe 1 was sent into that greenish cloud that masked the wormhole leading to the world of the giants in order to discover what happened to the Spindrift. The experimental sub-orbital airliner disappeared in June of 1983, and after an investigation, Toobworld Central believes that the government launched the secret probe to discover what happened to them.

Unfortunately for Gresham and his partner, the two astronauts didn't have as much luck as the passengers and crew of the Spindrift once it landed on the giants' planet.....

BCnU!

Rewind: This Week's Buzz

• Neil Patrick Harris already conquered the Tony Awards and now he might host the Emmys! I would so love that.
• Hey, since it's the Fourth of July and all, head over to my poll about what kind of humor you prefer: American or British?
• I'm also curious to know whether or not Star Trek should get an Oscar nomination for Best Picture now that there are 10 slots in the category.
• Ally McBeal is coming to DVD here in the US for real! That is all.
• Lots of interesting trailers out this week, like a funny one for The Informant starring Matt Damon, one for the comedy Couples Retreat, and one for the indie film The Assassination of a High School President.
• Some cute young ladies heading over to Gossip Girl for guest appearances next season: Hilary Duff will play Olivia Burke, a movie star who comes to NYU seeking a normal college experience, and Joanna Garcia has the role of Bree Buckley, "an irreverent, slightly evil Miss America type" who comes from a conservative Southern family but is politically progressive herself.
• Finally, there's talk of a Kris Allen/Adam Lambert duet - does this interest you?
