Quoted: Ricky Gervais says he decided to make an 80-minute finale to his HBO series “Extras” because he had a few things left to say about the wages of fame, and the people who pay them.

A new video iPod ... so what? Well, the fact that the iPod plays video is pretty ho-hum news for me, the bigger news is that ABC/Disney is making ad-free versions of their TV shows available via this little device. Provided that this takes off, it could usher in a new era of on-demand TV.
Television shows are massively popular on the Internet (think illegal file sharing) for a variety of reasons. One is the fact that people in the UK like American TV shows, and vice versa. This could be a huge revenue source for ABC, I'm sure the other networks will hop on board if successful (I believe it will be). Good job Jobs.

I loved this show when I was younger -- shoe phones will never go out of style.
