Oh, boy! One of the coolest Christmas episodes ever! Married With Children announced its subversive presence on nascent network Fox back in 1987 by offing old St. Nick, or at least a muscatel-chugging mall approximation of same who plummeted from a helicopter into the Bundy backyard...

The original plan today was to review last night's Rosie Live!, Rosie O'Donnell's attempt to revive the variety-show format on NBC. But since today is Thanksgiving, and the show was such a turkey, TV Worth Watching has decided to spare it...

Tonight at 8 ET, in a very rare attempt to revive the TV variety show format, Rosie O'Donnell is hosting a one-hour live special on NBC, smack in the middle of prime time. I concur completely with her passion that this is a genre worth reviving -- but I doubt whether Rosie, despite her enthusiasm and clout, is the person to do it...

Last night the broadcast networks presented one of their biggest guns of the November ratings sweep: Fox's two-hour telemovie, "24: Redemption." But over on cable, some of the regular weekly offerings were even more satisfying -- including the season finales of HBO's "True Blood" and "Entourage"...

"Pushing Daisies," the best new series ABC has presented in two years, has been cut down by the network. Obviously, and stupidly, ABC loves it not...

Last night's episode of ABC's superbly sublime "Pushing Daisies" tied, in the preliminary ratings, with NBC's supremely stupid "Knight Rider." Not good. For Daisies, it was a series low in terms of viewers, but close to a series high in terms of writing and acting...
