Television without Pity by Tara Ariano

Television without Pity by Tara Ariano

"Television Without Pity" features 752 irreverent but spot-on observations about the TV shows, characters, actors, cliches, plot devices, memorable moments, and catchphrases that make watching television such a guilty pleasure. From weekend-long Real World marathons to notorious speeches at award shows, from favorite characters (Brenda Walsh) to potty-mouthed senior citizens (Golden Girls), this is a celebration of television unlike any other. Written by the creators of televisionwithoutpity.com (hailed by Entertainment Weekly as "the industry standard" for obsessive TV fanatics), this tribute to the best of television's worst features 100 illustrations and an encyclopedic two-column design. It's great fun for nostalgic browsing, and guaranteed to prompt more laughter than reruns of Seinfeld.

Tara Ariano (screen name "Wing Chun") and Sarah Bunting (screen name "Sars") are the cofounders of televisionwithoutpity.com. Tara is the coauthor of Hey! It's That Guy! (Quirk, 2005). She and Sarah also have a regular column on msnbc.com and a semiregular gig with New York magazine.
