Tuesday Night Open Thread

By Jeralyn

It's women's night on American Idol. Two will get sent home on the live results show Thursday. I hope they are Lacey Brown and Paige Miles. Lacey was awful.

Really good: Janell Wheeler and Lilly Scott. I'm waiting for Crystal Bowersox to come on, so far she's been my favorite.

Update: Charlie Sheen goes into rehab, catching CBS by surprise. His show, "Two and a Half Men," for which he gets $900k an episode, is now in production limbo. His next court appearance is March 15. Sounds to me like his lawyers want to continue it and being in rehab is a good justification. If they wanted a rehab certificate to show the DA for a plea bargain, I don't think 3 weeks is going to be that impressive -- and aren't most in-patient rehabs 28 days? Or maybe the DA won't agree to drop the felony or offer a deferred judgment on it unless Charlie does a rehab stint.

This is an open thread, all topics welcome.
