POPSChuck Norris on hit list Check out what Mr. Norris is doing for kids. "It is what I have been doing for more than a decade with my "KickStart" program, which began in Houston, Texas, teaching 150 at-risk children martial arts as part of the PE curriculum. Since that time, our program, which instills discipline and respect and raises self-esteem, has grown to serve more than 6,000 youngsters year round at 37 schools in Dallas and Houston, Texas. To date, KickStart has graduated more than 50,000 students with many going on to college and becoming successful in their own right."

POPSThe Wonder Pets For parents of little ones, this show is really well done. The first time I watched it, I thought "wth?" because it's so unusual. The duckling has a lisp, which for some reason seems so endearing. Lots of singing, with original scores by Broadway composers.

POPSDear 1970s, I love you! Oh, it's just ABBA, Olivia Newton-John, and Andy Gibb sitting around singing Beach Boys. Then they move onto the secret musical consortium stuff, like taking over the world.

POPSSpeed Racer - wait a minute... At one time this movie had Johnny Depp and Vince Vaughn attached. Now look at the cast: The film stars Emile Hirsch (“Alpha Dog”) as Speed, Christina Ricci (“Black Snake Moan”) as Trixie, Matthew Fox (TV’s “Lost”) as Racer X, and Oscar winner Susan Sarandon (“Dead Man Walking”) and John Goodman (“Evan Almighty”) as Mom and Pops Racer. Come on! Matthew Fox? The Mach 5 looks pretty great.

POPSStephen Colbert bridge On the show last night Colbert had the Hungarian Ambassador to the US, who seemed real enough, confirming his win. Although according to the rules, Colbert would have to be dead to have the bridge named after him. Is this real?
