TV Junkie: Rickles on Letterman - See Him While He's Still Alive; Kimmel Does His Show From A Bus

A Word or 76:
CBS lineup tonight is wiped out by the CMAs and unless you are up for a Sir Laurence Olivier marathon on TCM then there's no movies on. I'm getting kind of sick of the parade of authors on late night TV, particularly Comedy Central - who the eff has time to read when there's so much bad TV? Speaking of bad TV, we're down to the final 3 on both Idol and DWTS - bring it!
