TV Junkie: PBS All Online; ABC & Spike Renewals
NBC's "Southland" is pretty darn good, it airs at 9:55pm tonight

Linkage: "MythBusters" was pretty awesome last night, here's a link to The Digg Reel's behind-the-scenes, etc. Tonight brings another installment of NBC's "Parks and Recreation" and I'm doggedly giving the show as many chances as I can (how do you feel about the show so far?) - here are a couple links to deleted scenes from last week's episode, I like the first one better than the second one.

News from Renewaland: Variety says that the following shows are definitely renewed by ABC - "Desperate Housewives," "Grey's Anatomy," "Brothers and Sisters," "Private Practice," "Lost" (final season), "Ugly Betty," "Dancing with the Stars," "The Bachelor," "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," "America's Funniest Home Videos," "Wife Swap" (dear lord, why?), and "Supernanny" (pure evil). Spike TV is renewing "MANanswers" and "1000 Ways to Die" and is even expanding the franchise to include "1000 Ways to Lie" - no word on if they will include a shopping version, "1000 Ways to Buy", but they shouldn't forget that guys like to shop, hard.
