-- Best plot twist: ``The Sopranos.'' Series creator David Chase divided fans of his HBO hit with the two-episode fugue state that kicked off the sixth season, when Tony was left in a coma after being shot by his demented Uncle Junior. But the sequence re-established the show's big-tent themes and willingness to test the bounds of viewer involvement.
-- Biggest tempest in a teapot: Katie Couric, anchor of ``CBS Evening News.'' The move was designed to make a lot of noise, to touch off a referendum on the role of broadcast news and whether a morning person had any business being on at night. Mission accomplished. Only the news failed to change.
-- Best career move: Michael C. Hall. Granted, he was coming off a boutique hit, HBO's ``Six Feet Under,'' but Hall's performance as a kinder, gentler -- but still emotionally absent -- sociopath on Showtime's ``Dexter'' is more than arguably the most consistent performance in a TV series right now.
-- Best stare: Michael Emerson, ``Lost.'' As Henry Gale, chief executive officer of the Others on ABC's ``Lost,'' Emerson has the bug-eyed thing down pat. On a show that derives much of its tension from the extreme close-up, Emerson's in-your-face face is the best mood-setter this show has left.
-- Best flameout: ``Emily's Reasons Why Not.'' You couldn't miss the billboards for this misbegotten comedy, but ABC made sure you missed the series, canceling it after one very-low-rated episode and thus depriving legions of Heather Graham fans from gifting the first-season DVD at the holidays.
-- Best talk-show apology: Michael Richards, ``The Late Show With David Letterman.'' There was Vice President Dick Cheney's mea culpa for shooting his lawyer friend while quail hunting on Fox News' ``Special Report With Brit Hume'' and Mel Gibson's olive branch to the Jews via ``Good Morning America's'' Diane Sawyer. Refresh me: Did any of these men actually apologize, as in ``I'm sorry for (insert stage-managed description of supposed transgression here)''? No, wait, I distinctly remember Richards using the word ``apologize.'' So he wins.
-- Best use of my television for your personal hobby: CNBC's ``Conversations With Michael Eisner'' and Dane Cook's ``Tourgasm'' on HBO (a tie). Which was the comedy, and which involved narcissists droning on and on into a camera? We'll let you play around with that one.
-- Best casting, top to bottom: ``The Wire.'' There are various entry points for talking about the achievements of this series, but in its fifth season on HBO, ``The Wire'' had four new male protagonists, all 16 or younger, not to mention Felicia Pearson as the nail-gun-wielding Snoop, the most ineffable character on TV this year.
-- Best metrosexual costuming: ``Ugly Betty.'' The men at Mode dress in very primary colors, hot magentas and exciting blues, and not just the gay ones. ABC's adaptation of ``Ugly Betty,'' the much-beloved/translated telenovela, is like staring at a lollipop as it turns into different shapes and colors.
-- Best sound of silence: White House correspondents' dinner. Stephen Colbert's keynote monologue (``He stands for things,'' Colbert said, as the leader of the free world looked on. ``Not only for things, he stands on things. Things like aircraft carriers and rubble and recently flooded city squares'') seemed to leave the room, not to mention the president and first lady, wearing the kind of smile that hurts.

Remember the college application question that asked if you could have dinner with anyone – who would it be? The standard answers included Jesus, grandparents, Abe Lincoln, etc. But we skipped that question and chose another because we couldn’t think of anyone interesting enough, at age 17 anyway, to keep our attention span during the dinner hour.
But now we’re older and wiser, living in LA and addicted to the TV shows constantly stored on our DVR. So we finally decided on 10 people who we’d like to have dinner with. Of course, all these “people” are interesting fictional TV characters from this season, but they’d sure keep us entertained while passing the green bean casserole:

Only six-weeks remain until LOST's February 7th return and with the latest LOST Moments revealing ever more tantalizing glimpses into the goings on island-side, we figured it was time to put the clues and hunches against the spoilers and try to figure out what the fate will be of some of our favorite characters. The result? A spoilerific road-map of possibilities.
Ben
Ben will no doubt live. Sci-Fi Talk did an interview with Michael Emerson, who plays Ben, and he indicated he would be filming for the entire season. But what about Ben's influence, or lack thereof? Nimble-eared folks probably recall hearing that bully Pickett mention "Jacob". A lot of theorists out there are quick to point out in Bible terms Jacob is Ben's father. Carlton Cuse said in the Stephen King issue of Entertainment Weekly (quoted here at Spoilerfix) that the names do have meanings. This could indicate anything from Jacob is Ben's father, to more of a symbolic meaning that Jacob is Ben's father figure.
No matter how you slice it, looks like Ben used the resources of the others against the wishes of their defacto leader. Is Ben the leader of a sect? Is big daddy going to be mad? Why are the other others hidden away? Is it the sickness? Or something worse?
Juliet
We are going to learn a lot about Juliet's off island life in the first episode back "Not in Portland". Amongst other things, we will learn a connection with Ethan Rom. Also, according to the official ABC description for the episode Juliet will do something that will put her in peril with her people. My prediction? Juliet shoots Pickett and leaves with Kate and Sawyer, just as her flash-back reveals a love connection with Ethan Rom, leaving us to question if she is on a mission to help the 815'rs or get revenge for her fallen hubby.
Jack
We last saw Jack totally in control with the fate of Ben's kidney in his hands. LOST Moments reveal that he is going to lose radio contact with Kate just after learning that there is no way off the island. Naturally, he can't leave the operating room without losing his leverage; something tells me these others have limits where Ben's life is concerned and letting the only surgeon possibly escape without stitching up Ben's kidney aint gonna happen. Juliet will be the hero that gets Kate and Sawyer off the island, Jack will be left to face the consequences of his actions.
Prediction? Ben will make a stunning recovery and offer to give jack what he bartered for, a trip off the island, but the offer is going to be usurped by Jacob. As far as LOST moment five goes, this is what the tailies-now-among-the-others have come to see: Jacob. As far as what pied piper tune got them there... we will be left with a classic LOST cliff-hangar and will have to wait until later in the season to find out.
Want more? Like a good LOST stall tactic, I'm outta here! But be sure to tune in tomorrow for Part Two: Kate, Sawyer, and Desmond.
