>No, but you got me hooked on Jon Stewart; you are my TV Guru! I wonder if we could figure a way that you could remotely set my TiVo? I've been tryin' to figure out a way ;) On ESPN nearly every weekday, there's a pair of sports talk shows that are really good -- Around the Horn and Pardon the Interruption... Around the Horn is a show where a rotating panel of four sportswriters argue over a number of topics (mostly sports, sometimes sports-related pop culture) selected by the producers each day. It's hosted by a guy who has the power to assign them points on his whim based on strength of argument, humor, or the way they're dressed... and the twist is that he can mute each of them for ten seconds whenever he wants. The winner after three rounds gets 30 seconds on his soapbox to discuss whatever he wants. It's really funny and really insightful; each of the panelists is a character in himself. Pardon the Interruption is somewhat the same idea; there are two hosts who argue about a list of topics, play a couple of games, and crack jokes. They're a real "odd couple." I DVR both shows every day. Totally the best shows to watch, if you're into sports. -Z
