"Star Trek" TVWW Contest Is Officially Closed -- Winner Announced Tuesday

As of 9 a.m. ET Sunday, May 10, the TV WORTH WATCHING Star Trek guess-the-grosses contest is closed. Thanks for playing -- and I hope, at least, you walk away with a copy of the home game.

The final opening-weekend tally, and thus the winner, will be announced Tuesday. Meanwhile, thanks to everyone who commented. Your entries made for a VERY entertaining read. (Some, in fact, were pure poetry. As new contributor Tom Brinkmoeller emailed me, "You have a very interested and loyal following. Congratulations."

For now, Happy Mother's Day. Even if you're not a mother, you came from one.

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.
