  <body>So, in addition to sports, I watch a lot of TV. A LOT. So I've decided to come up with a Hot and Not list for TV and entertainment.

*+Reality TV+*
&lt;b&gt;HOT&lt;/b&gt;: VH1 - With &lt;a href=&quot;http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://parlourmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/tool-academy-cast1.jpg&amp;imgrefurl=http://parlourmagazine.com/%3Fp%3D6936&amp;usg=__DF5_UMsZeKHFlZ9_6VzF_Gpez4c=&amp;h=326&amp;w=455&amp;sz=32&amp;hl=en&amp;start=15&amp;um=1&amp;tbnid=0Gy3fZ74Dlj2sM:&amp;tbnh=92&amp;tbnw=128&amp;prev=/images%3Fq%3Dtool%2Bacademy%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DN&quot;&gt;&quot;Tool Academy,&quot;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.facebook.com/pages/VH1/6220048374&quot;&gt;&quot;I Love Money 2&quot;&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/sober_house/series.jhtml&quot;&gt;&quot;Sober House,&quot;&lt;/a&gt; VH1 brings the variety and craziness (really just a nice word for trashy) that I look for in an evening of TV. Plus it's great that I can catch the shows on repeat any time so I'm not forced to become a watcher at a certain day or time. Props to VH1 for great reality shows. 

&lt;b&gt;NOT&lt;/b&gt;:ABC's &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29481521/&quot;&gt;&quot;The Bachelor&quot;&lt;/a&gt; - So I admit it, I was hooked on this show. Laugh all you want. There's something about this show that makes you root for the women/contestants and not  be able to turn away. But I can't help but believe the rumors that this season was staged. And that is why I won't ever watch again. &lt;a href=&quot;http://media.sheknows.com/articles/Batchelor-Finale.jpg&quot;&gt;Jason, the bachelor&lt;/a&gt;, is dead to me and I hope his new woman wises up to how horrible he is and dumps him. But the reality of it is that she won't and more than likely ABC will tout this season as a success and soon we'll see a wedding online. Gross!

+*Gaming*+
&lt;b&gt;HOT&lt;/b&gt; - This is the week for gaming! &quot;Halo Wars&quot; just came out and &lt;a href=&quot;http://espn.go.com/videogames/launchcenter?id=3934762&quot;&gt;&quot;MLB 09 The Show&quot;&lt;/a&gt; are taking up all of our time. At least it's improving our hand-eye coordination, right?!

&lt;b&gt;NOT&lt;/b&gt; - &lt;a href=&quot;http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=3937623&quot;&gt;Wii Sports&lt;/a&gt; ... and only because last night I got a Wii age of 56! Come on! How does my bowling skills really determine my &quot;age?&quot; So depressing!

*+Celeb Gossip+*
&lt;b&gt;HOT&lt;/b&gt;Tonight is &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Fallon&quot;&gt;Jimmy Fallon&lt;/a&gt;'s first show in Conan's place. I have questioned the Fallon pick, so I stand by that. He will have to prove himself in this role. He was funny on the Weekend Update desk, but did you see &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0316732/&quot;&gt;Taxi&lt;/a&gt;?

&lt;b&gt;NOT&lt;/b&gt; Rhianna and Chris Brown hanging out at P. Diddy's? Come on! </body>
