STOLE THE TV After one of the most vulgar scenes you'll ever see in any sitcom, a clear signal that this show will not be tamed, Sarah and Brian set out to right the wrongs of the world by taking on a corporation run by the always amusing Gary Marshall. The next night there's another new episode where Sarah confronts the Mongolian community in a thoroughly offensive but hilarious episode sure to leave more than a few audience members picking their jaws up off the floor over the unmitigated gall involved in bringing this program to life. The third season of The Sarah Silverman Program is off to a great start. The Sarah Silverman Program airs Wednesday and Thursday nights this week at 10:30pm on Comedy Central.
Coming soon: a review of Chocolate News which, judging from the previews, looks awful. Monday,

MEANWHILE... "Pam and I attended the EMMYS and formal Ball afterward. The Ball was great. We got to connect with old friends in the business. "A couple of days later, Tony and Lauren Dow had us over to lunch at their house in Topanga Canyon. I didn't realize Tony was an accomplished artist. He showed us one piece of sculpture that is being sent to the Louvre next year for a special exhibit. "Locally, the Humane Society Furr Ball takes place on Oct 18 and George Hamilton and Ali MacGraw are the celebrity guests. I have arranged to bring in two of their movie posters (Where the Boys Are & Love Story) to auction off after the dinner." Saturday,

TV STUFF MSNBC stated in an article about Rosie O'Donnell's November live variety show pilot: "Such classic variety titles as “The Carol Burnett Show” and “The Ed Sullivan Show” were massive primetime hits. Producers and networks have been trying to figure out how to revive the variety show for decades. In 2004, ABC drew viewers with “The Nick and Jessica Variety Hour,” but follow-up editions were less successful." Actually, Carol Burnett's program wasn't that big a hit. Sure, it ran for 11 years, but it never finished in the top 20 except the 1969-70 season and only landed in the top 25 four times. Here's a portion of one of the Burnett show's most memorable - and funny - sketches: Here's a clip from the new Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour DVD: 'Big Fat Crime,' a timely tune (from 1968) about Wall Street.

'N' THAT Holy 2007 rerun! The Screen Actors Guild's National TV/Theatrical Negotiating Committee is recommending a strike. The CW had so much success with Smallville that they're going back to the well again, this time with The Graysons, a show that chronicles the adventures of Dick Grayson before he became Batman's sidekick Robin. By now you've heard about Heather Locklear's DUI arrest - turns out she was turned in by a former Us Weekly staffer; she likely called a paparazzo who collected $27,000 for pictures of the TV star's sobriety test. Ratings for the season opener of Dexter were boffo.
