Baseball playoffs are the best. Better than fucking Arrested Development or whatever shit would normally be on.
BTW, Arrested Development sucks. The stupidist critically acclaimed show ever.

arrested development is exactly the quality TV of which I was speaking!
why do you think it sucks? just because it's critically acclaimed? because I assumed that as well, but then when I actually watched it I realized how funny and creative it is.

Is preempting/pre-empting the word we should be using here?

Oh it is, sorry, I only ever used the word to mean "To appropriate, seize, or take for oneself before others." I didn't realise it could be employed to mean "To take the place of; displace". I've learnt something today, I thank you.

i hate when things are pre-empted.
olypics pre-empts conan, one of the 3294732904730294732904732904732907432908740983274 CSI spin offs pre-empts the new King of Queens, and now this.
And please take your "I'm too good for TV" banter elsewhere. Rather than watching TV because you're bored, you're on this message board because you're bored. When your novel is #1 or you cure AIDs I'll belive that you have more "useful" things to do.
