  1. TV pitches: So I've got this idea for a show ...

    Two weeks from now, TV networks will announce their new slate of shows for next season. The majority of these series will be variations on a formula. Procedurals. High-concept sci-fi and fantasy dramas. Nighttime soaps. Comedies starring familiar faces. This is how it works. Out-of-the-ordinary shows tend to be too risky when the goal is big ratings.

  5. We'll still hear Ebert at the movies

  8. Thanks to Roger Ebert, 1942-2013

    The first time I encountered Roger Ebert, I detested him. The second time I encountered him, I liked him even less.

The last two feelings might not have been as strong without the first two; sometimes one intense reaction begets another.
