A continuation of the glorious series of television musings courtesy of Brian Wolly. The title of this blog, as mentioned in one of my Tufts Daily columns, comes from the old TV classic, "Leave it to Beaver." Eddie Haskell, the friendly neighborhood brat, would ask, "Hey Wally, where's the Beav?" Hence, Wolly and the Teev
My enthusiasm for Life is only tempered by the fact that I know that the show will fail and be cancelled within a month. With minimal PR, at least in comparison to Chuck and Bionic Woman, I imagine that not even NBC has high hopes for Life. Which is surprising, since it's better than Chuck and anything else new I've seen so far this week.

Ah. First day of school...Opening Day...Midnight Madness...and the first disappointment of the fall TV season.

So remember how I wrote yesterday that Chuck had the problem of being derivative and seemingly unoriginal? That was nothing compared to Reaper, which is pretty much exactly what you would expect if a lower-budget network like the CW tried to rip-off Chuck. The similarities between the shows are depressing and make Reaper just look lame in comparison.

Dorks are all the rage this season, or at least, on Mondays around 8:30 pm. Enter this scripted...er...comedic...er...sit-com version of "Beauty and the Geek" starring the second best part of "8 Simple Rules", Kaley Cuoco, and a few other guys including the Nicholas Cage impersonator from Studio 60. So, he's gotten a promotion.

So I'm a day late with my first post of premiere week, but it took a tad long to help a friend move, so forgive me.

Finally, we're done with all the movie and miniseries awards. Seacrest is STILL awful.

8:01 -- So Stewie and Brian from Family Guy are kicking it off with a musical rendition of mocking TV....and isnt this about 3 years too late? Family Guy is a bit...old by this point, right? On the other hand, it probably has the most respect for old-tyme television out of any show on TV.

Welcome to yet another liveblog...this time, we make fun of the Emmy's and how they are totally the ugly step-sister of the Oscars. And that's pretty ugly. Even uglier than Betty, which I'm predicting will have a big night.

The final scores: John, 24; Jared, 28, Brian, 38. Woot.

...then who is supposed to be AJ? Joe Biden? Ha, I kid.
So for the past 10 years, the American Film Institute has been shamelessly creating made-for-television specials counting down the 100 best movies, songs, villains, heroes, romances, comedies, etc... Some have been uber-lame (Cheers....way too few sports movies), and others have been pretty cool (quotes). But this year, they've run out of ideas, so they're updating their 100 Best Movies ever.
