As a big fan of the tv show Smallville, I’m looking forward to the beginning of the sixth season. But then a thought occured to me: when does the show premiere?

What I didn’t think about was… WHERE does the show premiere?

The WB Network and UPN are no more. Instead, look for the CW Network.

CW? Yes. A shared business of CBS and Warner. The CBS/Warner Network.

On this new network, look for all the shows that used to be on the WB Network. In addition, all the shows that used to be on UPN as well.

So where and when is Smallville? I still don’t know WHERE. A lookup of “where to find the CW Network” on the CW Network site yielded me a very useless “check local listings.” (No kidding. Really?) When? The same time as last season. Thursdays at 7PM Eastern.

If you’re a fan of Smallville, or any of the shows on the now departed WB and UPN networks… check out some of the following links to see where your show went.

I’m sorry. I’m filing this under “what a bunch of crap.”

At 6AM this morning, here in Honolulu, twelve federal Marshals busted into the Chapman’s house, and, with guns drawn, arrested Duane Chapman. He was asleep at the time. Duane’s wife, Beth, was busy getting the children ready for school.

Soon after, the Marshals then went out and arrested partner Tim Chapman and son Leland Chapman.

They were arrested by the US Marshals, by a request from the Mexican government stemming from a 2003 bounty that Dog and his team tagged: they grabbed Andrew Luster, who was convicted of multiple rape charges. In Mexico, bounty hunting is considered kidnapping. After spending a few days in jail, Dog and his group left the country while out on bail. Mexico wanted them back.

Now, three years later, all of sudden, Washington has signed a warrant for the arrest and transport of Dog and his group back to Mexico.

The only people that are happy about this turn of events are the Mexican government and the 12 or so people that were involved in the arrest of Dog this morning. The rest of the country is pretty much saying the same thing I am:

What a bunch of crap.

I’ll be curious to see how long this charade goes on.
