America. Bless you for the insanely good things you’ve given the world. Muscle cars, hamburger joints, rock ‘n’ roll and television will always be your crowning glory and us Limeys will forever be in your debt.
However, your taste in television shows is awful. From a country (nay, virtual continent) that gave us Taxi, The Simpsons, M*A*S*H, Roots, Ren & Stimpy, The Muppet Show and more, what in Christ’s name are you doing frittering away your time with dross like Two And A Half Men?

Which we're fine with, so long as the Emmys open a new category entitled Best Transparent Stunt Casting Of A Mentally Ill Celebrity To Revive A Mostly Rubbish Sitcom. And even then it'll be a toss-up between Britney and Franz Kafka's rib-tickling turn on According To Jim.

Looks like the easiest way for TV executives to boost ratings on their TV shows is to find the youngest girl they can and make her pregnant.
That's what has happened with Jamie Lynn Spears' Nickelodeon show Zoey 101. The just-broadcast season finale of Zoey 101 – the first episode since Jamie Lynn Spears announced her pregnancy – recorded viewing figures twice as high as usual.
