Binge viewing; more Heigl; 'Jericho'

-- Trend: Viewers increasingly watch morning-to-dusk reality marathons of shows like "The Bachelor" and "Rock of Love." Otherwise known as "Saturday" ...... (hmm, but will anybody east of the Mississippi know what Del Taco is?)

-- Pretty gutsy to walk off a show that isn’t even on the air yet

-- The “Save ‘Jericho’ ” TV ad that has now aired more times than actual episodes of “Jericho”

-- Ed Wyatt on whether Katherine Heigl has joined the “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” school of contract negotiation in trying to break up with that clingy “Grey’s Anatomy”   

-- “Top Chef” goes on the road to convince viewers that the show's food doesn’t secretly taste like Bennigan’s

-- Also: William Hurt joins FX’s “Damages”

If I were Shonda Rhimes, I'd keep her on the show -- but I would have Izzie suffer a disfiguring car accident that also left her incapable of working.

Then every week, just like Suzanne Somers in the second season of Three's Company, I would cut to her in a wheelchair in the corner drooling slightly out of one corner of her mouth and have some orderly each week say, "Yeah, she used to be attractive and a doctor. It's a shame," as he walks by shaking his head.
