There's no mistaking <em>that voice</em>. In this clip below the flesh-and-blood West urges us to watch the <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/23/sundays-with-seth-auntie-momma-jerome-and-my-morning-jacket/">FOX Sunday night animation lineup</a>.

But I like how it's just a few arms in the illustrations that are moving in the ads. Clever idea.<br />

For instance,<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/10/15/big-love-season-four-premieres-in-january/"> <em>Big Love</em> is coming back to HBO on January 10</a>. <br />
<br />
But that's not all. <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/tnt-sets-return-date-for-leverage/"><em>Leverage</em> announced a return date</a> this week, and there's also <em>Burn Notice</em> and <em>The Closer</em>, NBC has <em>Chuck</em>. And <a href="http://www.www.tvsquad.com/category/breaking-bad/"><em>Breaking Bad</em></a> is returning to AMC in March.<br />
<br />
How great is all that TV - and I haven't even mentioned <a href="http://i.tvsquad.com/2009/10/15/heres-the-poster-for-the-final-season-of-lost/"><em>Lost</em></a> or <em>24</em>!

I know it's gotten a bad rap from some fans of the <em>Stargate</em> franchise, but I think it's pretty good. Then again, I haven't watched the entire franchise from the beginning, so don't have a lot of the expectations of long-time fans. <br />
<br />
Brian J. Smith, who plays First Lt. Matthew Scott, sat down to answer fan questions. He said it's a little overwhelming joining a well-established franchise, but he tries to focus on the day to day aspects of filming. "You try not to think so much about the big picture," he said. "You try to just enjoy what you're doing as an actor each day." <br />
<br />
He also talked about the most admirable quality of his character. "I think it's a sense of empathy," he said. "He's got a very rare quality, which is that he's able to really put himself into the shoes of other people. When he goes on missions and he's leading away teams on other planets or even on the ship itself, he takes the safety and well-being of the people he's with incredibly seriously. He's a really emotional guy, and I like that about him." <br />

It's Thanksgiving morning as I'm writing this. I've got five pounds of potatoes boiling for our mashed potatoes, the turkey is in the oven, and the butternut squash is cut up for the risotto I'm making. My baby is playing ball with his dad, and the dog is on the couch trying to sleep and just remaining thankful that said baby isn't trying to pet her eyeball right now. I have a lot of things to be thankful for, but as others have said before, me, this is a TV blog, so let's talk about television-related things I'm thankful for. <br />
<br />
As we're getting close to the mid-season point, I feel more and more that this is an exceptionally strong season of television-- even with the whole Leno debacle. There are several new shows that I'm quickly falling in love with, and some returning shows that are better than ever. In no particular order, here are things that I am thankful for.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-kona-is-thankful-for/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>What Kona is thankful for</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-kona-is-thankful-for/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19254026/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-kona-is-thankful-for/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>danny pudi</category><category>DannyPudi</category><category>donald glover</category><category>DonaldGlover</category><category>jane lynch</category><category>JaneLynch</category><category>jay leno</category><category>JayLeno</category><category>jayma mays</category><category>JaymaMays</category><category>john lithgow</category><category>JohnLithgow</category><category>la biblioteca</category><category>LaBiblioteca</category><category>thanksgiving</category><category>the trinity killer</category><category>TheTrinityKiller</category><category>troy and abed</category><category>TroyAndAbed</category><category>twitter</category><category>what kona is thankful for</category><category>WhatKonaIsThankfulFor</category><dc:creator>Kona Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 26 Nov 2009 15:06:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>What Jane is thankful for</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-jane-is-thankful-for/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-jane-is-thankful-for/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-jane-is-thankful-for/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/video/" rel="tag">Video</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/lists/" rel="tag">TV Squad Lists</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/fringe/" rel="tag">Fringe</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/true-blood/" rel="tag">True Blood</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/glee/" rel="tag">Glee</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/vampire-diaries/" rel="tag">Vampire Diaries</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/lie-to-me/" rel="tag">Lie to Me</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/castle/" rel="tag">Castle</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="262" border="0" align="right" alt="Eric Northman, True Blood" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/11/eric_northman_true_blood.jpg" />Happy Thanksgiving! It's that time of year when we reflect on all the good things in our lives, and of course, my thoughts turn to TV. Let's take a look at a few things on the tube that make me feel all warm and fuzzy. <br />
<br />
<strong>Sexy vampires.</strong> Oh my, we got lots of them this year. <a href="http://www.moviefone.com/movie/the-twilight-saga-new-moon/36045/main"><em>The Twilight Saga: New Moon</em></a>'s got nothin' on TV vampires. Eric Northman and Bill Compton from <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/true-blood/"><em>True Blood</em></a> are definitely at the top of my list. Pictured is that hunk o' steamy vamp himself, Eric, a.k.a. Alexander Skarsgard in real life. But we also got those lovely Salvatore brothers on <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/vampire-diaries/"><em>The Vampire Diaries</em></a>. Elena certainly has some high-class problems, doesn't she? Steadfast Stefan or bad-vamp Damon? They both have their particular gifts.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-jane-is-thankful-for/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>What Jane is thankful for</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-jane-is-thankful-for/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19253432/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-jane-is-thankful-for/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>alexander skarsgard</category><category>bill compton</category><category>cal lightman</category><category>castle</category><category>chelsea handler</category><category>chelsea lately</category><category>chris colfer</category><category>damon salvatore</category><category>defying gravity</category><category>eric northman</category><category>fringe</category><category>glee</category><category>guy branum</category><category>ian mckellen</category><category>ian somerhalder</category><category>jim caviezel</category><category>lie to me</category><category>new moon</category><category>paul wesley</category><category>sexy vampires</category><category>stana katic</category><category>stefan salvatore</category><category>stephen moyer</category><category>the prisoner</category><category>the vampire dairies</category><category>tim roth</category><category>true blood</category><category>vampires</category><category>walter bishop</category><dc:creator>Jane Boursaw</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 26 Nov 2009 09:02:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Adam Lambert discusses his AMA controversy (and dresses like a vampire)</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/adam-lambert-discusses-his-ama-controversy-and-dresses-like-a-v/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/adam-lambert-discusses-his-ama-controversy-and-dresses-like-a-v/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/adam-lambert-discusses-his-ama-controversy-and-dresses-like-a-v/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/daytime/" rel="tag">Daytime</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/video/" rel="tag">Video</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p>We all know that <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/24/good-morning-america-cancels-adam-lambert-concert/">Adam Lambert's <em>Good Morning America</em> performance was canceled</a> because of his controversial appearance at <em>The American Music Awards</em>. But <em>The Early Show</em> snatched him up for a performance this morning and he also talked about the AMAs and why he thinks there was nothing wrong with it.

Well, the O is one busy lady. She's just booked another TV program. On Sunday, December 13, ABC will broadcast Christmas at the White House: An Oprah Primetime Special. Set the DVR for 10 p.m. because that's when President Barack Obama will welcome Oprah into America's grandest national house.<br />
<br />
Take that, Barbara Walters! Not so fast with that ascension to the upper echelon, Robin Roberts. Back off, Diane Sawyer. Oprah Winfrey has an 'in' with the First Family and that's why she's going to be visiting the Obamas for a tour of what the holidays are like at the White House. This is the first time <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/tag/BarackObama/">President Obama</a> and the First Lady are having Christmas there, and it'll be all new to them.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/oprahs-going-to-take-us-to-christmas-at-the-white-house/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Oprah's going to take us to Christmas at the White House</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/oprahs-going-to-take-us-to-christmas-at-the-white-house/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19254118/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/oprahs-going-to-take-us-to-christmas-at-the-white-house/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>2009</category><category>Barack Obama</category><category>BarackObama</category><category>Barney cam</category><category>BarneyCam</category><category>Christmas at the White House</category><category>ChristmasAtTheWhiteHouse</category><category>December 13</category><category>December13</category><category>First Lady</category><category>FirstLady</category><category>malia obama</category><category>MaliaObama</category><category>Oprah Winfrey</category><category>OprahWinfrey</category><category>sasha obama</category><category>SashaObama</category><category>video</category><category>White House</category><category>WhiteHouse</category><dc:creator>Allison Waldman</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 25 Nov 2009 13:04:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>WKRP in Cincinnati: Turkeys Away</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/wkrp-in-cincinnati-turkeys-away/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/wkrp-in-cincinnati-turkeys-away/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/wkrp-in-cincinnati-turkeys-away/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/comedy/" rel="tag">Other Comedy Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/video/" rel="tag">Video</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p>There aren't as many classic Thanksgiving episodes of TV shows as there are classic Christmas episodes. But there are several we remember fondly, including this one. It's the "Turkeys Away" episode of <em>WKRP in Cincinnati</em> that originally aired on October 30, 1978. Carlson tries to come up with a special promotion for the station and, well, you'll see what happens.

But whether it involves daily gargling, diction concentration exercises or repeating phrases like "My grandmother brought candy to the bigamist" over and over, it must take a toll on your sanity. <br />
<br />
That's the only explanation I can fathom for <em>The Price Is Right </em>announcer Rich Fields' slow cognitive eradication as evidenced by this video. Let's hope gets a "brand new braaaiin" real soon. <br />

<br />
The show officially hit the airwaves on a local Minneapolis station, <a href="http://www.mst3kinfo.com/history/page3.html">KTMA, on Thanksgiving Day in 1988</a> by a young, fresh-faced Joel Hodgson. The rest, as people who rely on cheap cliches to heighten the dramatic effect with their weak words, is history. You can read the rest at the <a href="http://www.mst3kinfo.com">Satellite News site</a>, the most exhaustive and interesting MST3K site on the Internet. <br />

Every fan of the show and even occasional glancers remembers where they were when they first discovered this kind of cult comedy classics. For me, I discovered it with my old man who hates it when I call him my old man during the hilarious Pod People episode, arguably the funniest episode for the show and the worst movie the show has ever skewered.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/24/mst3k-turns-21-years-young-today-huzzah/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>MST3K turns 21 years young today, huzzah!</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/24/mst3k-turns-21-years-young-today-huzzah/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19253312/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/24/mst3k-turns-21-years-young-today-huzzah/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>comedy central</category><category>ComedyCentral</category><category>crow t. robot</category><category>CrowT.Robot</category><category>dr. clayton forrestor</category><category>Dr.ClaytonForrestor</category><category>gypsy</category><category>j. elvis weinstein</category><category>J.ElvisWeinstein</category><category>joel hodgson</category><category>JoelHodgson</category><category>kevin murphy</category><category>KevinMurphy</category><category>mary jo pehl</category><category>MaryJoPehl</category><category>mike nelson</category><category>MikeNelson</category><category>mst3k</category><category>mst3k 21st anniversary</category><category>Mst3k21stAnniversary</category><category>mystery science theater</category><category>mystery science theater 3000</category><category>MysteryScienceTheater</category><category>MysteryScienceTheater3000</category><category>pod people</category><category>PodPeople</category><category>tom servo</category><category>TomServo</category><category>trace beaulieu</category><category>TraceBeaulieu</category><category>trumpy</category><category>tvs frank</category><category>TvsFrank</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 24 Nov 2009 21:02:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>The coolest thing ever you'll see today: the Muppets channel Queen</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/24/the-coolest-thing-ever-youll-see-today-the-muppets-channel-que/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/24/the-coolest-thing-ever-youll-see-today-the-muppets-channel-que/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/24/the-coolest-thing-ever-youll-see-today-the-muppets-channel-que/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/comedy/" rel="tag">Other Comedy Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/video/" rel="tag">Video</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/music-and-variety/" rel="tag">Music and Variety</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p>I'm am an unabashed fan of the Muppets and it doesn't matter than I'm 29.

I don't care. They were funny when I was a growing toddler still learning how to say my ABCs and they are still funny now that I'm an adult who cannot say my ABCs backwards convincingly enough to prove my sobriety. So just imagine my joy when this video surfaced of the fuzzy funnies doing their rendition of <a href="http://insidetv.aol.com/2009/11/24/magnifico-the-muppets-do-bohemian-rhapsody-video/">Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"</a>. <br />

Yeah, I guess I could watch the episodes any time of year since I own them on DVD, but that's not how I roll.<br />
<br />
Here are two classic scenes from the show. The first is from the episode "Shibboleth" where President Bartlet pardons a turkey, and the second, after the jump, is from "The Indians in the Lobby," the scene where he calls the Butterball hotline.

<br />
I love the reaction of the audience at the start, sensing tension and humor but not really sure what' going on.

The first episode is scheduled to be shown in the U.K. on Christmas Day with the final episode on New Year's Day.<br />

<em><br />
Saturday Night Live</em> recut the trailer for the apocalyptic schlock-fest during last weekend's <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/22/review-saturday-night-live-joseph-gordon-levitt-dave-matthews/">Joseph-Gordon Levitt episode</a> featuring Sarah Palin as the new president in 2012 and well, just watch it and wait until you see who she picked as her running mate. That grumbling sound in the distance just might have been the apocalypse hungry for action. <br />
<br />
And before all you Palin-ites getting your complaining fingers ready for typing, you should note that this parody video takes a much bigger swipe at the people who claim Palin and her ilk will bring about the end of the world as we know it. Remember that saying "You can't judge a book by its cover"? The same goes for blog posts and comedy sketches, even if they don't technically have "covers." <br />

When a murdered man is found stuffed in the garbage chute of an apartment building, two women arrive to ID the body -- the guy's wife and his fiance. It's like the ultimate in awkward encounters, and of course, Castle has something to say about it. He looks at the dead guy and says, "You are so busted." <br />
<br />
Of course, Castle and Beckett have the fun task of trying to figure out if this guy's been leading a double life or if he's being framed. With this show, you just never know. I'm guessing one of the women is behind it, but we'll see. <br />
<br />
I'm loving <em>Castle</em>, because it fulfills my lifelong wish for a TV show that offers the snappy banter and sexual tension of an old-time movie. Well, Castle would call it sexual tension. Ok, Beckett is leaning that way, too. I don't know who I'd compare Nathan Fillion to, though. Maybe a little Cary Grant mixed in with Donald O'Connor. <br />
