CAREFUL, NBC, OR YOUR INITIALS SOON MAY STAND FOR "NOTHING BUT CRAP" By David Bianculli

There's an old network trick when it comes to promoting truly tacky TV shows: If a new program is mind-numbingly bad or indefensible, don't send preview copies to critics.

VIEWERS HELD HOSTAGE, DAY 100: OUR LONG NATIONAL TV NIGHTMARE IS OVER By David Bianculli

When Writers Guild of America members voted yesterday to authorize an end to the strike, it had been exactly 100 days, by my count, since the strike began on Nov. 5, 2007. And I'm pretty sure I'm counting correctly, since that was the day, by coincidence, I launched TV WORTH WATCHING...
