They played reruns of My So Called Life all the time, and there were only 19 episodes?

Thanks for the link and the credit (I often only get one of those items and not the other.) This is the second time you’ve linked to me, and I like your logo and open-source commitment.

How much to host my blog and ~30 other sites? I’ll throw in a signed copy on my In-n-Out secret menu PDF…

Although I agree that crap TV usually trumps genius TV, there is one glaring counter-argument to the above graph. It can be summed up in two words: “The” and “Simpsons.” The longest-running program in television history has certainly had its lesser moments, to be sure, but it’s also provided some of the greatest humor in the history of the medium.
