But I really enjoy reading writers who have television as their beats. Dana Stevens in SLATE and, increasingly, Virginia Heffernan in the NYT who sift through the shows, looking for the golden moments.
I'm intrigued by the Flavor Flav/Bridgette Nielsen pairing but have no interest in watching the show. Thankfully, Heffernan is professionally obligated and writes in today's NYT about a song that appears in "Strange Love" the show that documents the pair:
Girl from Denmark, snowy white
Boy from projects, black as night
He's a jester; she's a fox
She likes smoking; he likes clocks
That's the flavor, that's the flavor of love
