Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I'm amused that he names his livestock after celebrities - chefs for the turkeys and I believe, Trinny and Susannah from the original WNTW for the pigs.

What did they get for season 3?

I don't know if anyone here is addicted to this show (I have managed to never watch it) but my friend M. is definitely addicted so I had to send her this interview with the next bachelor from "The Bachelor".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was awesome.

New horror/reality series from Sam Raimi on the CW.

Sounds like it could be fun.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Discovery Health Channel's answer to the Puppy Bowl:

Discovery Health's second annual television event is double -- and in some cases, triple -- the fun. BABY MADNESS: MULTIPLES features more adorable babies, more laughs and more advice from parents, such as Kate Gosselin from "Jon & Kate Plus 8," and mother of 17 children Michelle Duggar. Headlining the all-star cast of BABY MADNESS: MULTIPLES are 40 sets of tiny twins and triplets, and hilarious comedian host Andrew Kennedy. The three-hour toddler extravaganza begins Saturday, April 5, at 3 PM ET/PT and repeats until midnight, as a viewing alternative to college basketball's Final Four.

The jam-packed action tips off at Baby Madness Arena -- a mini-basketball court where the babies play, laugh, cry and simply do what babies do. BABY MADNESS: MULTIPLES highlights the "competition" among the multiples, in spirited events such as "The Diaper Derby," "The Ravioli-Eating Challenge" and "Finger Painting Palooza." Kennedy, a funnyman and father of three, provides narration and insight into the babies' activities and innermost thoughts throughout the program.

There are no words for how much I hated that arrangement of "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away." Kristy Lee Cook, please, please go home.

I'm on TiVo delay, so I'm spared that horror. In the meantime, I ♥ Amanda, soooo much.

Have you noticed she's got an Elvis Presley lip curl? It's hot.
