Things I learned on TV tonight

How I Met Your Mother
1. Apparently, it really is more embarassing to be a former teen pop star in Canada than a...porn star.

2. Many women really do look better with darker hair. Brunette is making a comeback, I'm telling you.

3. Watching men slap each other is pretty damn funny.


Prison Break
4. Women that are 50 - 60 lbs. overweight should not wear pea green.

5. If your former fugitive-hunting partner betrays you for money and is eventually going to be killed by one of the prison escapees, do not leave the guy a voice mail that says "I'm going to gut you." It kinda makes you look guilty.

6. Apparently, there are no clean AND clever FBI agents in TV shows anymore. Or, are there?

7. Jack Bauer doesn't negotiate with terrorists. And he comes back in January. Hot damn.


Heroes
8. Based on the partial face they showed of Sylar, he will not be played by Christoper Eccleston (unless they think we're morons).

9. Peter's ability to absorb others' powers is the coolest because you get to do different things (as soon as I saw the digital pic, I knew he was going to regenerate from Claire).

10. You could probably get your kid to not sneak out of the house if you tell her that she's about to be scalped by a psychopath, instead of just grounding her.


Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip
11. It is possible to go from having some of the wittiest lines on TV to the...cheesiest.

12. I like Amanda Peet's hair, and then I realized that I had that same haircut in 1993.

13. Female figure skaters from Russia became less sexy once The Cold War ended.
