The Emmys are almost here, and there are new or returning shows on just about every night -- basically, it's a great time to be a TV fan. But don't touch that dial! At least, not until we get to the highlights of the week.
We watched as politics met culture, Tina Fey met Sarah Palin, and no one would stop talking about it.
We learned that when it comes to shows like Gossip Girl and 90210, you really can be too rich and too thin.
We saw Gossip Girl's very own audience magically appear on the show to give Dan and Serena a good tongue-lashing.
We heard Megan Fox and Kristen Bell talk about sex, and pretty much stopped paying attention to anything else for a while.
We went to reality-TV school, but were surprised to learn that some reality contestants became real couples.
We saw Lynne Spears defend herself, though not in court.
We found out who Kelly Taylor's baby daddy was, and asked him to come back.
We wished all the best to Mr. and Mr. Sulu.
We appreciated Jada Pinkett Smith, and crushed on T.J. Thyne and Cesar Milan and Abigail Spencer.
But we felt bad for Ryan O'Neal.
We thought it was terrible when Hurricane Ike took down entire neighborhoods, but kind of funny when it almost took down a weatherman.
And we still weren't tired of Neil Patrick Harris.
