Begging The Question
There has been entirely too much politics, here and everywhere else recently. In an effort to rectify that, here is my Top Ten list of current TV shows that could be converted into a porn without having to change the name.
10. Private Practice (ABC)
9. Unwrapped (FOOD)
8. What Not to Wear (TLC)
7. Trading Spouses (CMT) / Wife Swap (LIFE)
6. Supernanny (ABC)
5. Options Action (CNBC)
4. Real Housewives of (BRAVO)
3. Dirty Jobs (DSC)
2. Big Bang Theory (CBS)
1. Bang for Your Buck (HGTV)
Of course, it is doubtful that any of these will unseat the all-time champion of this category, Leave it to Beaver.

I was amused to see that the ABA Journal chose L.A. Law as the best legal-themed tv show of all time. It reminded me of one of my favorite legal-themed Saturday Night Live skits: the one where Corbin Bernsen from L.A. Law chooses to represent himself in a trial, based on the legal knowledge he has accumulated playing a lawyer on tv. After flailing quite a bit, he is "rescued" by L.A. Law cohort Susan Dey, Andy Griffith from Matlock, and finally, Raymond Burr from Perry Mason. It's too bad that one's not available at Hulu. Until then, we'll have to make do with the L.A. Law theme song, "Shoulder Pads!" (technically, not the real title, but right in spirit).
