As mentioned earlier here, TV Land is rerunning my unfavorite episode of The Adventures of Superman early tomorrow (Saturday) morning. It's probably on at 12:30 AM or 3:30 AM in your area, depending on which time zone you're in or maybe which time zone your cable company thinks it's in. The episode is "The Mysterious Cube" and the reasons I think it's so silly are spelled out in two columns, the first of which you can read by clicking here. But read fast. These columns are only available here until Monday morning.

Yeah, America will certainly buy that notion, especially with all the 9/11 retrospectives we'll be watching the next few weeks. The nerve of those selfish New York fire fighters…
Someone (Leno, I think) once said that Politics was Show Business for ugly people. Lately, it's become Show Biz for people who are neither pretty nor smart.
