February 29, 2008 - I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-to-Die Blog
Well, ladies and gentlemen, I just discovered one of the few perks of running your own website. I'm so sick, with that stupid ruthless flu, I'm giving myself the day off from writing the blog. Please accept my apologies.
If the blog returns Monday, it means I lived.

Behind David in the picture is the first TV owned by his father, Virgil Bianculli, a 1946 Raytheon. (The TV, not his father. His father was a 1923 Italian.)
David Bianculli has been a TV critic since 1975, including a 14-year stint at the New York Daily News, and sees no reason to stop now. Currently, he's TV critic for NPR's Fresh Air, occasional substitute host for that show's Terry Gross, and teaches TV and film history at New Jersey's Rowan University. His most recent book is 2009's Dangerously Funny: The Uncensored Story of 'The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour,' and he's at work on another.

LOVE YOUR WEBSITE AND COMMENTS. FEEL BETTER...
A FELLOW U OF F ALUMNI
David,
Hope this comment finds you feeling better. There are some great films on tonite, so stay in bed, fix yourself a brandy & enjoy. Have a good weekend. (You will recover, but this flu strain is wicked. Spent a few days out of sorts myself.)
Get well soon. Your blog has become indispensable in alerting me to good shows on the cable channels that I normally don't follow closely -- particularly BBC America, which I keep forgetting is there.
Whip that dang virus pronto David! I'm looking forward to reading your thoughts about NBC's decision to drop quarterlife after one episode.
David,
Get well, soon -- hope that you feel better.
