Mid-season scheduling changes at NBC & FOX: 1:40 – 15:38
The power of TV critics (or lack thereof): 15:38 – 18:40
The lack of fidelity to foreign languages on American TV: 18:40 – 23:51
TV show episodes that tower over the rest of their respective series: 23:51 – 30:19
Shows with storylines that go off the rail: 30:19 – 36:10
Thoughts on “Sports Night” and “The West Wing”: 36:10 – 46:00
HDTV versus standard-def: 46:00 – 52:30
