Yesterday Nickelodeon's "Dora the Explorer" celebrated its 10th anniversary. The groundbreaking series was the first animated Latina character on TV in a leading role. Today, she is seen by over 100 million kids around the world. The show airs in over 150 countries, and it is translated in over 30 languages. What was also remarkable about Dora is that she was neither a cutesy Strawberry Shortcake or sexed-up She-Ra female character - she's just intelligent, confident, and independent. Our two kids were brought up watching Dora but there was a very definite time when they had enough of the repetition and static animation style of the series. The Dora formula was easily parodied in "Saturday Night Live"'s "Maraka" by Robert Smigel which made us realize how unwatchable Dora had become. more ›

The best way to control rumors most often is to confront them head-on, which NBC has done today via NBC Universal Television Entertainment Chairman Jeff Gaspin, who revealed just this morning that Jay Leno's "nightly prime-time show will end with the beginning of the Winter Olympics on Feb. 12," reports KTLA. According to Gaspin, Leno is being courted for an 11:35 p.m. half-hour slot, thereby bumping Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Fallon back a half-hour, however it's "not a done deal," adding he "hopes to have NBC's late-night lineup cleared up by the beginning of the Olympics." Gaspin remarked that it was the NBC affiliates who were not satisfied with the Leno "experiment," which prompted the mid-season shakeup. The news came during NBC's segment of the Winter Television Critics Association Press Tour in Pasadena. more ›
