A wave of hate seem to issue forth when TBS announced its cancellation of "Lopez Tonight." Hey, not everybody is funny to everyone but at least Lopez was providing a funnier and better show for people who might otherwise turn to Leno. --- All this plus the weekend TV Junkie Must-Watch Plan

TV Junkie: From Bourdain in Naples to May in Scotland - GastroMondayTV
Anthony Bourdain takes his "No Reservations" to sample the delicacies of Naples, Italy and James May drives up to Scotland for rounds of whiskey in "James May Drinks To Britain" - and we're on board. --- We take issue with "The Wrap" taking issue with the first 2 eps of this season's "Curb" just because last night's ep was so fantastic. --- All this and the TV Junkie Must-Watch Plan.

TV Junkie: TV Enters Summer Doldrums; HBO Hosts Fantastic Doc on John Cazale Tonight
The Summer doldrums are setting in but we'll try to keep things interesting for you (watch for our TV on DVD reviews starting this week). If you have HBO, tonight you must absolutely check out "I Knew It Was You: Rediscovering John Cazale". Cazale was the brilliant actor whose every film was nominated for an Oscar (from Dog Day Afternoon to The Deerhunter and beyond) and he was the husband of Meryl Streep before his untimely death in 1978.
TV Junkie: Come and Get Your Popcorn - Jon & Kate Series Finale
The TV Junkie Plan: "How I Met Your Mother", "Jon & Kate Plus 8", Leno (The Governator + Gaga), Kimmel.

We're not saying that the show is predictable or boring because these are major plot points for almost any show and what makes "Mad Men" special is the style and delivery. Cheers.
