MR PEABODY WAGS THE SHARK

June 3, 2006 by Tim Riley

Until i heard CCH Pounder on yesterday’s Fresh Air, I hadn’t realized that FX’s the Shield had won a Peabody Award, those things they give out to Jon Stewart. This year’s list includes SOUTH PARK, Brian Williams and the whole Katrina gang, and Scully as Dedlock in BLEAK HOUSE. But can anyone argue persuasively that David Kelley’s BOSTON LEGAL ranks with Martin Scorsese’s NO DIRECTION HOME?


QUOTE OF THE WEEK


Guyana’s Pounder tells TG that she’d never been called a “n*****r” until she acquired an American accent.
