Second chance to see me on TV

If you missed my fleeting appearance this weekend on At the Movies -- well, you should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself. Fortunately, thanks to the miracle of the Internet, you can catch the "Critics Roundup" segment by going here and clicking onto the Quantum of Solace button in the "New This Week" section. Go ahead. Don't make me beg.

My quantum of At the Movies

OK, I admit: The first time I did a couple of "Critics Roundup" segments for At the Movies, I felt like I'd charted heretofore unplumbed depths of total suckage. Indeed, I feared that, after the taping, a producer would call me and say something like, "Uh, Joe, that really didn't, er, work out, did it? So, well, we're going to, like, edit you out..." But I guess I didn't stink up the joint as badly as I feared. They asked me back to tape a new segment today with hosts Ben Lyons and Ben Mankiewicz and Matt Singer of IFC. We talked about Quantum of Solace -- and you can hear what we had to say this weekend on fine TV stations everywhere.

At the Movies: Ben and Ben and... me

This weekend and next on At The Movies, the nationally syndicated film-review show now hosted by Ben Mankiewicz and Ben Lyons, I'll be a member of the "Critics Round-Up," joining the discussion of Religulous and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (both of which, incidentally, I quite liked). Please check your local TV listings, watch or TiVo the program -- and then, of course, e-mail the producers and tell them how wonderful I was.
