PaleyFest 2010 starts in 10 days
TV fans, the Paley Center for Media's PaleyFest, February 26th to March 14th, is upon us, giving you the chance to see panels of cast and show creators from: "Modern Family", "Lost", "NCIS", "Community", "Dexter", "Cougar Town", "The Vampire Diaries", Seth MacFarlane, "Breaking Bad", "Flash Forward", "Men of a Certain Age", "Glee", and "Curb Your Enthusiasm".Virtually any of those panels are going to be a blast. Be aware, however, that we've read that the seating in each section is unassigned and is first come, first served. Also be aware that if you are a member, and we highly recommend membership, you get a superhuge discount that ends today.

For all of our complaining, we're still watching the Olympics because it's the best thing on and despite some naysayers out there (a comment on Monday's post saying "nobody's watching" among them), there are at least 25% more viewers of these Olympics than the 2006 edition. NBC's numbers will continue to go up as hockey and figure skating are now under way.
