Area Man Spends Weekend Programming DVR • Comedy Central has ordered a pilot from The Onion. It's about sports, which some of us (could be anyone, really) don't care about, but, you know, The Onion. Sometimes you have to take a little bit of the boo with the yay!

The Berenstain Bears: The Movie • Speaking of children's movies, Hollywood has greenlit The Berenstain Bears: The Movie. Hopefully they go Where the Wild Things Are with it, and make it really dark and sad. Children crying. Nightmares.

That's Your Sitcom: Sherri

Clearly, this is your sitcom. "It just speaks to me." That's what you tell your lady friends over lunch at an outdoor cafe with a bottle of the second cheapest white wine on the menu. Oh, btw, you are a woman, and that is why this show speaks to you, because it is just telling it like it is. FWBW, says your sweatshirt. In any case, the "Vodka and Fudge" mousepad is going to take 4-6 weeks to ship to your house, but it will be well worth it, because then all the other girls in the secretarial pool will know that you have something that you actually care about. That your life has depth and meaning.

Apparently The Next Season Of Friday Night Lights Takes Place In 2012

WE WERE WARNED!

Friday Night Lights is already one of the best shows on television, but apparently in season 4 it will be one of the MOST TERRIFYING show on television as well, when most of Dillon, Texas, plunges into a paranormal chasm in the ground. Clear eyes, full hearts, can't fall into the giant paranormal chasm in the ground. Obviously, I recognize that this is a metaphor for how Coach Taylor's move to the East Dillon Wildcats (or whatever) is going to create an irreparable divide through the town and its many carefully drawn human relationships. But maybe, just maybe, this metaphor will be created visually, with an actual giant rift cut down the middle of the town. Probably not. Maybe. Almost certainly not. But maybe!
