SERIES PREMIERE: I’ve subscribed to New York magazine for decades, and its back-page feature of late, “The Approval Matrix,” is a weekly, witty attempt to pin all things pop cultural on a mathematical-type graph – on a range from “highbrow” to “lowbrow” on one line, and “brilliant” to “despicable” on the other. It’s a different way to steer the talk, and select subjects, during a talk show – and though making this live, or taping it closer to air, would allow for a more topical exchange, there are moments of freewheeling fun here – as when TV Guide critic Matt Roush singlehandedly, and very properly, reaches out to give more credit to The Honeymooners than the other panelists, who include Whitney Cummings. Neil Brennan hosts.
