Well, I could, but I've always been special like that... ;-)

I haven't seen the Staples commercial this season, but in the past, their Back to School spots had a father going up and down the aisles with a shopping cart, dancing to the holiday song "It's the most wonderful time of the year" while his kids dejectedly shuffled along behind him. I loved those!

On an early episode of Southland, Cooper and Sherman are on patrol, and Coop keep asking "Where are we now..." explaining to Sherman that he should always know where they were in case they needed to call for help. At the end of the episode, they're involved in a foot chase with a suspect. When they apprehend him, Sherman radios for backup at "186 1/2 Main..." which no doubt made Coop proud.

I live about an hour from Red House furniture now - I may have to check them out, since they are so welcoming!

A variety of people, often writers, can end up with a "Producer" credit. Here's a bit of an explanation: http://johnaugust.com/2004/producer-credits-and-what-they-mean

Not by much...

Haven't seen that one, but they have another set in a conference room, where a wolf's head pops out of the guy's stomach for a piece of beef jerky. I get the same Alien flashback when I see it.

I never saw Oz, so he'll always be Dr. Skoda of Law & Order for me.

They've almost always jumped ahead with the start of a new season, I don't know that they've ever really shown what goes on during the winter - it's not very interesting in the Hamptons that time of year.
