- Don't forget: Tonight marks the debut of NBC's The Singing Bee, just one of two network karaoke shows that will premiere this week (Fox's over-exclamatory Don't Forget The Lyrics! airs tomorrow). Here's hoping Larry Blackmon is getting some of that Jeff Zucker moolah for Bee's repeated "Word Up" references.
- Slate examines the world of online karaoke: "The first songs I uploaded were soft, unthreatening numbers by Dido and Patsy Cline. Next up were Sarah McLachlan and Madonna—again, fine songs but not particularly interesting. I preferred Salt-N-Pepa and Heart to Lilith Fair. But on SingShot, my vocal talents had reduced me to a cliché: an angsty college girl." We've all been there.
- Sadly, it's hard to tell whether this latest entry from Jim Davis Inc. is new, or a reprint from 1991. Tomorrow on Garfield: Odie discovers moonwalking!
