So in the world of things I wish I could "un-hear", 90's action icon Steven Seagal is back... and this time it's personal! A New Orleans county sheriff's office has deputized Seagal, making him an honest to goodness cop (I guess they watched "Above The Law" and got confused), and to make matters worse... or better, depending on your perspective (mine always gravitates toward the amusing), he will be using his police powers to clean up the streets of New Orleans on his brand new A&E reality show bowing in 2009... Seriously...

All right, all posturing aside, I think this is going to be FANTASTIC!!! I predict this will be the (funniest) best show on TV, and I can't wait! He has almost become more famous for being insufferable, than for his karate movies. In the book Live From New York, An Uncensored History Of Saturday Night Live, he's almost unanimously picked as the worst guest host in the history of the show, so you can see the potential... But I loved that Gary Busey show too, so I'm no critic.

There are only three things in life that I know for sure: Candy is good, puppies are adorable, and Steven Seagal got Kelly LeBrock, back when she was still Kelly LeBrock... and to this teen of the 80's, that still means something!

Scott.
