If the past 11 seasons of supermodel Tyra Banks' "America's Next Top Model" have taught us anything, it's that a pretty face alone cannot conquer the elite and savage world of professional modeling. Attitude is an edge, confidence is a must and a willingness to shamelessly peddle CoverGirl cosmetics will all but win you the title.

It's tough not having a personality to call your own. Just ask any of the brainwashed beauties who regularly get their memories erased before donning new disguises in FOX's new sci-fi drama "Dollhouse." The show premiered two weeks ago to, deservingly, very little fanfare.

The 2008 NFL season may have just come to an end, but the third season of television's best sports drama is ready for kickoff. After flying under the radar on DirecTV's 101 Network for three months, "Friday Night Lights" made its primetime season premiere on NBC in January.

While their peers aspired to be police officers, firemen or environmental activists, Mason and Conner of TNT's new character drama "Trust Me," which premiered Monday at 10 p.m., had different ambitions growing up. Best friends since grade school, the talented twosome dreamed of poolside tanning, expensive hors d'oeuvres and perpetual hangovers. When they eventually landed jobs as yuppie ad execs, those dreams became reality.

The human face is perhaps the most complex arrangement of muscle found in nature. Just ask Dr. Cal Lightman, the "face-reading" protagonist of the new drama series "Lie to Me," which premieres tonight on FOX at 9 p.m.

Over the past seven seasons, the lovelorn, misanthropic staff of Sacred Heart Hospital has traveled an interesting road. We've seen Elliot (Sarah Chalke) and J.D. (Zach Braff) have more messy fallings-out and passionate reconnections than there have been body bags sent to the morgue due to intern Doug's incompetence. We've witnessed Carla and Turk's relationship blossom from an apprehensive courtship into a solid marriage that yielded baby Isabelle. We've memorized Dr. Cox's bitter rants, and we've winced at The Todd's hundreds of innuendo-fueled high-fives.

So come on, you know you have some free time on your hands, and what else are you going to do with it? Finish your readings for Classics 4? Psh. You're a Dartmouth kid. It's 85 degrees outside. And you need to pour some idiot-box ice cream on your brain in the form of something other than Family Guy and Law & Order.

Just in case you missed it, one week ago a brand-new pop star was born out of the American Idol machine.

Some take notice of the brightening of spotless skies or the ungodly blasting of watered-down pop rock from convertible stereos. For others, it's the scary overabundance of frisbees and little children or the sudden two-to-one ratio of rollerbladers to pedestrians. Hey, for some prestigious places, it's the annual emergence of ice cream socials and powwows.

When 17-year-old front runner David Archuleta began to effortlessly honey out a Beatles classic in order to atone for what had been an unforgettable razing of "We Can Work It Out" the week before, pop culture fanatics everywhere -- or rather, the ones who could hear themselves think over the panting bevy of tween girls who screamed as though he were formerly part of the Fab Four -- no doubt noticed how uncannily his song choice reflected, once again, the predictable unpredictability of American Idol season seven.

A black and pewter pseudo-blog adorned with self-aware advertisements and caricatures, VoteForTheWorst.com has been dutifully and thanklessly disturbing the melismatic peace on pop-culture juggernaut "American Idol" for four years now.

Anchored by a talented cast that features Emmy-nominated comedian Jeffrey Tambor ("Arrested Development") and Teen Choice nominee Joanna Garcia ("Reba"), "The Captain" attempts to follow in the cerebrally comedic footsteps of the many successful projects affiliated with its cast and producers -- a list that includes "How I Met Your Mother," "Frasier" and "Two and a Half Men." The show is a mid-season strike-related replacement for the surprising hit "The Big Bang Theory." The show is infused with a harmless off-the-wall humor that appears the tool of choice for writer John Hamburg, who also penned "Meet the Parents," "Zoolander" and "Along Came Polly."

If you've had enough of watching and hearing about primaries, and playoff games, I hereby invite you into the delectably commercialized microcosm of America's favorite karaoke show.

Such disembodied wonderments comprise the hilarious new promotional campaign on Comedy Central -- which is, as of winter, the new home of "Futurama," the Emmy Award"winning and recently resurrected animated sitcom about the Year 3000. After countless online petitions, massive DVD sales and relentless battle cries against the FOX Network, master cartoonist Matt Groening's cultish Sci-Fi brainchild is set to return with new episodes to the small screen. There, it will remind us why we too would like to be cryogenically whisked away to an era of alien newscasters, heads in jars and Amazon women looking for "snu snu."
