Reality check on Craigslist
by Adam Finley, posted Mar 19th 2007 8:02AM
On those rare occasions when I want a used bicycle pump and/or a one-night stand with some random stranger of dubious background, I pop on over to Craigslist to see what I can scrounge up. One has to be careful when dealing with people online, and the only advice I can give is to keep track of which person you're visiting. Trust me, no one wants to walk out of their garage with a bike pump and see you standing there naked because you confused them with the person with whom you've set up a sex date. What's even worse is trying to explain to them, regardless of your mistake, why you would think having sex on their lawn in the middle of the day was a good idea.

John Oliver, Senior Entertainalist reported on this year's Oscars ceremony. Well... not really. He was really reporting on how much he didn't like Jon's hosting performance from the previous year. This was a beautiful act of self-deprecation, I must say. I loved it when John Oliver called Jon "the iceberg responsible for sinking SS Last Year's Oscars.""Cinema Politico": At the Oscars, Al Gore was a big hit (Jon had a message for him: "Here's an inconvenient truth: Cake isn't a food group!"), as were the shadow-y silhouette people (lobsters and penguin-people!). John Oliver returned again to talk about how the ceremony was "green" this year. They chose an interesting image to use for the endangered species picture... You can clearly see former TDS correspondents Steve Carell and wife Nancy Walls sitting next to a giant panda.
Is Britney returning to reality television?

You won't believe what I overheard in the bathroom at Hyde the other night. I was mixing my Strawberry Quik together with a half ounce of the white stuff - pure as the driven snow - when The Animal comes in and announces that she's making another TV show. Alright, that's how I imagine rumors get started in LA. The way they actually get started is some production company (or prankster) posts a Craigslist ad, and it gets picked up by Perez Hilton. That's how word got out that Britney may be looking to film a reality show for MTV. I personally don't believe a word of it, but you can read the ad for yourself at the Gossip Gangsta's site.Out of the Blogosphere

Nightline has been beating Letterman in the ratings lately. TV Barn has the numbers. - TeeVee.org has a review of Studio 60, and their pick for the pilot's "glaring flaw" is incredibly ridiculous. Have they forgotten about Sports Night?
- I don't really understand the first sentence of this post about The Office and Grey's Anatomy over at The Boston Globe's blog. Can someone explain it to me?
