Sometimes you must write about TV

The gray-haired guy from Alabama won the giant televised singing contest tonight. From the way people are reacting around here, you'd think it was a football game or something.

Other observations from season finale time:

• The West Wing's sendoff was what you'd expect from that show: classy, poignant, thought-provoking, and forward-looking. Oh, and kinda entertaining, too.
• Boston Legal is at its best when it breaks the fourth wall.
• Big Love entertains me even more than its lead-in, though The Sopranos' impending family war may change that.
• I still have no idea what's happening on Lost, and I love it.
