Newsradio is back on the air in my local market. I did not love this show when it first came on. I liked it toward the middle of its run, then didn't like it after Phil Hartman died. Then it went into syndication and now I love every single episode.

So this time--in case it stops being rerun again--I'm going to try to tape it all. Which is why, earlier tonight, I was going through my small stack of mislabelled videotapes trying to find one that I could stand to erase completely. One of them had the Ellen coming-out episode, so I watched that. I still like it a lot. I wish that show had made it to syndication.

Eventually I went to the supermarket to buy some groceries and a blank tape. It wasn't until I got back that I noticed I'd forgotten the tape. I went to the other supermarket to buy a blank tape. This time I succeeded.

Tonight's broadcast of the pilot episode was preceded by a long ad they must have run before the show went on the air or something, about the new show and all the wacky hijinks it would contain. This promo included the moment where Beth, after some sparring between Dave and Lisa, says dryly, "Wow, it's like watching Tracy and Hepburn." Sigh.

Supposedly the first season is going to come out on DVD later this year. I sure hope it does.
