Below is an excerpt from a typical issue. If you want even more links, check out my new site Crixfix.

“The 100 Best is worth the price of the book alone.” Mike Mellon, the former head of research at ABC Television, said that ... back when TASTELAND was still 12 bucks. Now the book is just $6.99. TASTELAND features the best of 15 years of my writing and the 100 best shows to rent or download. Just write me to reserve your copy. More info is at the book site and the Amazon page, where you can read the book’s first 30 pages!
