So let me get this straight: not only did Lucy announce last night that she and her husband were going to have twins, her sister Mary came back and announced she and her husband were going to have twins? And also brother Matt came back and announced his wife was pregnant with twins too? And they're parents had twins?

Oh, come on!

I know that twins run in families, but this was, like, nutso. Have they been going through some weird scientific experiments or something? It was as if the writers said, "you know, a happy ending to the show isn't enough, let's make it a double happy ending!"

I've been trying to weed out all the reality shows I don't need to watch anymore (goodbye American Inventor, American Idol and others), but I have to admit  really like Little People, Big World. There's something non-exploitive and natural about it. It's been a ratings bonanza for TLC, so much so that the network has given the green light for a second season of the show later this year, so we'll be able to see the further adventures of the Roloff family.

TLC will air a marathon of the show on Mother's Day.

So the news is that The WB's 7th Heaven has been asked to come back for another year when the new CW network launches. But where can they possibly go with the storylines? They've done sex and drugs and religion and school violence and sex and pregnancies and gangs and sex and domestic issues and everything else (sex). So what can they do to get people to come back?

• Satan takes over the city, and Rev. Camden must battle for the soul of everyone in Glen Oak (cross-over episode with Supernatural?)
• In a very special episode, the Camden family stages an intervention with Matt, to get him to leave What About Brian? and come back to the show.
  
• The family finds out that Ruthie is a robot.
