There's a lot going on in today's TV news, but if you just want to feel slightly frustrated and roll your eyes in annoyance, feel free to scroll on down to the last headline.

CBS' spin attempt to make a House-like series debuted last night, but while there were patients of the week introduced via bizarre scenarios, the doctor in charge isn't nearly as cranky or believable. Really, am I supposed to believe that there is a cardio transplant specialist who is going to sit and hold his patient's hand and wants everyone to call him Andy? In my experience surgeons are far too busy and self-important to allow for either of those scenarios. This isn't Everwood. This is a seemingly large hospital, given that they have an entire transplant team and a jet at the ready.

The TWoP staffers are watching The Price Is Right when a promo for Moonlight comes on.
Wing Chun: Shannyn Sossamon's doing a Moonlight?
Joe R: She's on Moonlight.
WC: I know, they just showed her; she's going to be in it tomorrow.
JR: No, she's on it. She was one of the many recasts.
WC: No way, seriously?
JR: What, because she's such a big movie star that doing Moonlight is beneath her?
WC: Good point.
JR: Didn't she also give her kid some legendarily stupid name? Not Pilot Inspektor...
WC: Yeah -- not Moxie Crimefighter... [looks it up] I thought so! "Audio Science."
JR: Oh, Jesus Christ.
WC: I can't decide whether it's lamer to name your kid Audio Science...or be in the cast of Moonlight. -
Follies Of The Overrated, Judging Fictional Strangers, Let's Go to the Video, Shows Nobody Cares About Anymore Except Us

Some straddled the line, managing both with equal skill, like Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Supernatural manages to be pretty scary most of the time, but many shows have aimed for scary and fallen horribly short. Here are a few of the most egregious examples.

Really Ridiculous Reality Shows, Stars Making News, Today's TWoP News, Very Bad Things
Today's TwoP News: March 18, 2009Today is an interesting news day. For starters, I have good news for Moonlight fans, even better news for Larry the Cable Guy fans, and great news for fans of A Shot at Love.
