How many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?

I noticed they skipped an episode because the Halloween show featured a different returning champion.

You can thank Larry Craig for that.

You know, after I heard about the writers' strike, maybe NBC jumped the gun on pulling "Bee". Hopefully, it'll be back soon.

I hope it is back soon. A good primetime game show that doesn't have to offer a million dollars is rare nowadays. Singing Bee has entertaining games (I love "Singing With the Enemy") and a half decent host. Here's to hoping it's back on soon.

I like the show, but I can see why NBC pulled it for sweeps.  If you're being beaten by Freakin' "Cavemen"...

Perhaps it would've been better to keep it at 9:30 and enjoy a somewhat protected position after "Biggest Loser."  I hate for it to be up against the Death Star after the beginning of the year, but if "Idol" and "NCIS" suck up most of the viewers at 8 p.m., perhaps if it gets enough in the demos it may keep the lights on for NBC at that time.

Meanwhile, the show that would've aired tomorrow night was a tie-in to the "Green is Universal" campaign of The Networks of NBC Universal (don't miss this week's "30 Rock," in which Jack presents a San Diego Chicken-ish mascot for the campaign)--if and when the show airs, will all those references be cut?  (I noticed that any mentions of the champion's previous winnings last week were cut, so that people might not notice that a show didn't get aired.)

Saddest part of the whole deal is that if you want a Lisa Byrnes fix, you have to watch that decrepit "America's Most Smartest Model" show. I did catch a little of it and thankfully restrained myself from throwing something at my expensive LCD TV.
