Breaking News from TCA Tour, Courtesy of Diane Werts


As they say, this just in... Diane Werts, who writes for TV WORTH WATCHING these days, just filed her first missive from the Television Critics Association press tour, which runs for the next two weeks in Los Angeles.

I won't be going out until Sunday, so check out Diane's first, and first-day, impressions. Click on "Diane Werts" in the navigation bar to read today's column, or scroll down and read her in her regular spot, underneath BIANCULLI'S BEST BETS...

David Bianculli

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.
