Morning Entertainment Nuggets

How close is Big Love to real life? Check out EW's "ask an expert" series, where they speak with a reporter from Utah who has covered polygamy. Personally, I think season two is even better than season one, and I really enjoyed season one. While the cast is uniformly excellent, the three wives (Ginnifer Goodwin, Chloe Sevigny and Jeanne Tripplehorn) have all turned in stellar, nuanced performances for the whole of the season.

Good interview with creator of quality euthanized television shows, Tim Minear, over on E!. Mainly, it talks about what it's like to have an "overall deal," and not so much about how it feels to have promising show after promising show held underwater like an underperforming dog at Ron Mexico's house.

Finally, here's an audio interview with Joss Whedon at Amazon.com (it's at the bottom of the opening info block, just to the left of the "tell a friend" icon). Primarily about the release of the Serenity special edition, he also has an interesting response to a question about "best show on TV." Quickly, without hesitation and in a split second, he says (you guessed it) "Battlestar Galactica." And goes on to add, that he thinks it's one of the best EVER, by a country mile. I know that, and if you watch the show, you know that too.
