Year End TV This and That. The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly.

TUBE!

 I just posted (see the post after this) my favorite TV for the last year. But my favorite stuff doesn't cover everything I want to say about TV. So here are a few random categories I want to toss out there.

The TV Thing I Most Wanted to See But Missed: The 2013 Inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

The Coolest Non-Fiction Thing I Saw: The Led Zeppelin tribute folks honoring LZ as the band received Kennedy Center Honors. The "Stairway to Heaven" bit was remarkable. If you haven't seen it, please watch this on YouTube. Now.

Best Reality Show: "Pawn Stars." But keep in mind, that saying "best reality show" is like saying, "The Freshest and Shiniest Turd." Runner Up? "Naked Vegas". Just because it's so different.

Worst Reality Show: In the land of Honey Boo-Boo, all the rest. Including the God-awful Cake-Boss, Project Runway, Hells Kitchen and any other show that takes a respectable profession and makes a crummy game show out of it.

Worst TV in 2013: The Oscars hosted by Seth McFarland. What a putz. Terrible. Just God-Awful.

Best Just Out There Fun Current Events Thing: Bill Maher on "Real Time."
Where else are you going to get to see Ann Colter and Ben Affleck yelling at each other while Michael Moore chuckles at them both?

Best Old Time Sit-Com I Watched that Still Holds Up: "The Andy Griffith Show", "Cheers", and "I Love Lucy."
