- Smart talk about TV's best... and where to find it.
Taking One Final Smothers Day Off -- To Finish Final Proofs!
The corrected proofs are due today for my Smothers Brothers book -- the last phase of production before the book heads to the printer.
So I'm taking the day off from the blog, to finish proofreading the final chapters. First you write the book, then you have to read it...
And then, and only then, OTHER people can read it...

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.

Great news David, can't wait to read it! (is it too early to ask if you have had any feedback from Tom and/or Dick about it yet?)
[Yes, it is -- they'll be getting their bound ms copies in the next few weeks. I'd say I can't wait, but THEY'VE been waiting since 1994. -- David B.]
