Whoa! Man! Have you been watching this Little League World Series on ESPN? These 11-to-13-year-olds from all over the world are amazing. Tuesday night's Georgia-Pennsylvania game was 6-3 after the first inning -- and we'd already seen incredible slides and tags and almost-home-runs and down-the-line triples and overturned replay calls and just about anything else you could want in a baseball game...

The best thing about watching 1950s TV episodes is when they're still hysterically funny. The second best thing is seeing superstars before they were super, still working their way up to icon status.

Who doesn't love a lovefest? And that's what the annual TCA Awards are. Members of the Television Critics Association invite folks from the shows we've named outstanding, and every year, those folks accept their awards by turning the tables and giving us praise...

Do we really need another reality show? Do we really need another talent competition? Do we really need more Simon Cowell? Well, yes. To all three. Says Simon Cowell...

Ted Danson is now D.B. Russell. Ashton Kutcher is now Walden Schmidt. Two famous faces are making familiar shows fresh again this fall on No. 1-viewed network CBS. Kutcher didn't "do" press tour for his new Two and a Half Men character. But TV standby Danson made the CSI panel Wednesday, seeming substantially refreshed himself...
