Great Moments In Other Blogs' Blog Sections (Inspired By Their Message Board)

Ken Jennings decided not to have a comment section in his blog, instead he's gone slightly old school and has a message board there instead (and I post as XWL, there also)

Part of his most recent post was inspired by a message board topic post.
I should be unpacking the kitchen right now, but I’m obsessed by this post over on the message boards about TV shows whose titles have exclamation points. I know there must be more of them, but I’m drawing a blank. I can think of lots of shows that should have had exclamation points, though. Like Phyllis! and Cop Rock! Actually, any failed show is funnier with an exclamation point. Also, it makes news shows sound like game shows: Meet the Press! Face the Nation!

I Agree! Everything! Looks Better! With! Exclamation Points!! Though! Maybe! Some Shows! Might Not!

The CBS News with Katie Couric!
Dateline NBC!
Anderson Cooper 360!
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit!
C-SPAN's Book Notes!

(alright, nevermind, all shows should have exclamation points at the end of the title)

The CBS News with Katie Couric!

No, that's perfect! It really let's Katie's nauseatingly cheerful perkiness shine through in the title of the show! Because with news that's as much fun as this!, and this!, and this!, and this!, and this!, who wouldn't want someone whose nauseatingly cheerful perkiness shines through to read the news to them?
