TV Review | 'Out of Jimmyâs Head': Whatâs in a Seventh Graderâs Head?

This is really just another show about a seventh grader trying to fit in. Itâs also a show with a sly sense of humor when itâs not being self-consciously frenetic.

Recently, there's been a bit of a brouhaha in the news about a Miss Teen USA 2007 contestant stumbling over what should have been a simple geography/education question (watch the video in all its schadenfreude glory).  This kind of slow news day reporting is not terribly interesting in and of itself, but it got me thinking about Mike Tyson.

By Jeff Brown, The Philadelphia Inquirer  Dec. 10--When my son was 7 or 8, I spent several dreadful afternoons attending birthday parties at a place called Chuck E. Cheese. Dreadful for me, that is -- the children loved the noise, the pizza, and the beeping arcade games.

In the cross-promotional, self-referential, multimedia universe that has become pop culture, "iCarly" -- a new television show/Web site/webcast from Nickelodeon -- seems almost inevitable. It's so meta, it'll make your head spin.

A high school without sports teams? Friday Night Lights Out? It's what Larry David would call a whole bowl of wrong.

Every seven years since 1964, the filmmaker Michael Apted has released another installment of "The Up Series." These films document the lives of a diverse group of Britons from the ages of 7 to, most recently, 49. One of the patterns that emerges is a dramatic illustration of the Jesuit motto that inspired the series: âGive me a child until he is 7 and I will give you the man.â You can clearly see how these kidsâ very different personalities were fully formed at age seven.

So I'm watching a new Subway commercial (the sandwich store, not the New York commuting purgatory), and the company has a new sandwich. The descriptive term is "overstuffed." Other call-outs I remember include "feast" and "satisfying." Unfortunately for Subway, these words don't take away from the visual impact. These things make the actors look like they're trying to stuff a football into their faces. One girl was eating a 'wich that was literally bigger than her head. In Normalville, we call that biting off more than you can chew. And when that happens in real life, you should take smaller bites â¦ or outsource.

By Mary Schulken, The Charlotte Observer, N.C.  Feb. 8--It's a made-for-TV script-in-waiting, that's for sure: Robochick wigs out.   On a scale of 1-10, NASA astronaut Lisa Marie Nowak's public flame-out rates a solid 10 for bizarre.

Tycho:  I've been au Canada at Hothead since Monday, making a final pass on the entire script and writing new stuff for things we managed to fit into the first ep.  After two days of this process, I feel as though my brain has been dragging a plough through a stubborn field.  Like every other part of this adventure, it's been profoundly educational.  I enjoy it, but there is a constant electrical hum in my skull that I assume is the byproduct of creating a universe in real time.

Freshman Sam Weir is a geek. His sister, Lindsay, is a freak. They try to make their way through high school circa 1980, a melee of big rock, Monty Python skits, and enough Star Wars to choke a Wookiee. From the patron saint of misfits, Judd Apatow.

MTV's fiction show effectively evokes the hot, tribal mentality of high school kids who might just redeem their adolescence with sex.

HBOâs âConchordsâ is a summer fling of a series, but it is funny, at times very funny.

PBSâs childrenâs show, where animals talk and have humanlike jobs, is  intermittently interesting, and itâs served up with eye-catching computer-generated animation.

FOX's detective drama, peppered with hip-hop music and fast cars, is aimed at young male viewers, but the underlying mindset is surprisingly adult.

Animation in the âSimpsonsâ era demands a breathless pace, varied characters and whirlwind visual invention. Nickelodeonâs âTakâ falls short in all three categories.
