Never one to flog a dead horse let a good idea go to waste some ideas for TV shows we’d like to see in the new year.

Dan Rather’s Pajama Parade. An investigation into the must have fashion accessories for the up and coming journalist. Made with the assistance of the Victoria’s Secret models.

Number 4

ARAFAT
Suha Arafat investigates the world of international finance, seeking a reliable banker. The winner is a surprise! Without spoiling the show I can tell you that he doesn’t know who she is, who her husband was, where the money is, will not be drawn on whether there ever was any money and flatly refuses to believe that a place called the Middle East exists! Perfect for her needs!

Number 3

John Snow, who is nominated to be the Secretary of Treasury, listens to President George W. Bush's remarks in the Dwight D. Eisenhower Executive Office Building Monday, Dec. 9. "In a varied and productive career, John Snow has shown consistent qualities of foresight and integrity and public spirit. He's led one our nation's largest railroads with skill and success. He knows firsthand how the economy works. His peers elected him to lead the Business Roundtable, where he was an articulate voice for pro-growth policies," said the President.

John Snow presents Survivor: the Cabinet Edition.

Is that really J-Lo's ass?? Has she been having tea with KGB?

Tim adds: I think not to both but it does make one think....wonder if the wife will try to use that excuse. We did live in Moscow for 6 years after all.

Caught you using the American spelling of "pajama."

My idea: "Lying Journalists". A reality show featuring journalists who make up stories out of whole cloth. The one whose lies go undetected for the longest period of time wins.

Guest stars: Dan Rather, Andrew Gilligan, Jayson Blair, Howell Raines.

It's gonna take a gallon of high octane hootch to get that J-Lo picture out of my mind's eye.

Wow. J-Lo hasn't looked that bootylicious since that Selena movie. Too bad it's photoshop.
