I think Wednesday night is the perfect time for Fox's GLEE. We all need a boost in the middle of week, and the Mckinley High gang is right there to offer some high-octane song-and-dance along with LOL lines. GLEE never fails to entertain me with its mixture of great music, vivid characters and raunchy comedy.

The unquestioned hero of HEROES right now is consulting producer Bryan Fuller, who wrote this week's episode, "Acceptance."

It's a good thing that AS THE WORLD TURNS' Janet has volunteered to adopt Liberty's baby, because there may be more unsuitable parental units than Paul and Emily, but I'm having trouble imagining who. Neither Paul nor Em is known for sound, responsible — or even rational — decisions (hooking, anyone?), but Paul's history with children is particularly heinous.

I have figured out what's wrong with HEROES — at least as far as I'm concerned. The characters of HEROES are, with the exception of Hiro, obsessed with leading "normal" lives, lives that do not feature healing factors or mind-control.

Can anyone think of a reason why Nathan Fillion is not one of the biggest stars around? His star vehicle, CASTLE, owes its success entirely to his lead character.

Today saw the final installment of GUIDING LIGHT, and while I'm sure many others will pen far more eloquent eulogies, I can contribute a small personal note about what GL has meant to me professionally.

With GUIDING LIGHT getting the (deserved) lion's share of attention this week, let's not forget the other good shows still on the air. Take today's AS THE WORLD TURNS, for example. The script absolutely crackled with great, witty dialogue, and the actors rose to the challenge.

Dear Diary,
OMG, it finally happened — VAMPIRE DIARIES premiered on The CW last night! But why do I feel sorta dirty the morning after? Over the course of the whole show, I swapped IMs with my colleague Mala, who was horrified by what she saw — and not in a good way.
