Much as I enjoy watching "24" and "Battlestar Galactica" ...
"BSG" quibble: The military can't manage to protect or feed the civilians trapped in Dogtown, but everybody's got cigarettes with filter tips and lots of booze, and there's a really good tailor with a stash of silk ties and custom-made suits for Lee Adama.
"24" quibble: I get the giggles when cops move in on the bad guys, guns gripped in both hands, arms extended, elbows locked, weapons pointed at knee level. It's not so bad when it's just one person, but this week the line of Secret Service agents, tiptoeing through the White House in groups of four or five, set me off. I first noticed this hilarity in "NCIS" and "Criminal Minds." I'm waiting for Harpo Marx to hit 'em with water balloons.
The geek-genius of "Criminal Minds" is especially funny, what with the awful hair and the way he wears his huge gun holster. If I were actual FBI, I'd put out a hit on that actor.
