Thanksgiving Short Cuts: A Turkey Roams Free
A few things to be thankful for today:• The courts are starting to really toughen up on drunk drivers. On Wednesday, Mike Tyson was released from the pokey after serving a way longer sentence than Lindsay Lohan. He was behind bars for a whole 24 hours. • TBS' premiere of Mad TV impressionist Frank Caliendo's Frank TV late-night skit show drew 2.9 million viewers — delivering better demos, the cabler crows, than even Leno and Letterman. Which can only mean the far superior Stephnie Weir will be getting her own series any day now.• Laura Branigan is making a comeback, the New York Post reports. Fans of the "Self Control" singer, who died three years ago, have demanded the rerelease of three of her out-of-print albums, and in January, their wish will come true. So would now be a good time for me to start campaigning for Strawberry Switchblade to finally come out in the US? — Ben Katner
