Watching CBS Sunday Morning.

Why would anyone watch MSNBC on a Sunday?

Just saw Jim Gaffigan's brief bit.

And then a story about Hart Island under pressure, burying five times as many as in normal times.

Not a big island.

CBS Sunday Morning always did have a special, New York City flavor to it.

All cop shows and some others set in the city make it seem a giant trash heap inhabited only by brutal police, repulsive low-lifes, and dangerous criminals.

But some shows made and make it seem a very human and livable and special city, the cultural capital of America (and I mean that in a good sense).

(The 9/11 terrorists didn't understand America or the America Americans love. They hit the World Trade Center. They ignored the Statue of Liberty. Thank God. Or Grid, at your preference.)

CBS Sunday Morning among them.

Jane Pauley oddly reminds me of Charles Osgood.

And, oddly, White Collar.
