Shall we assume that tomorrow, after a week of "Chefography" episodes
featuring its pantheon of questionably talented cooking celebrities, The
Food Network will honor Julia on her birthday?

(and could they please do it without mentioning Julie?)

I find that hard to believe. Let's face it, tv has become nothing but
a huge shill for the movie industry.

On Big Brother, they have plugged two movies this season, and the show
is only half over.

I believe their "Chefography" series is only about Food Network
"chefs." I don't think Julia was ever on the Food Network, was she?
I only saw her on PBS.

Oh, I didn't mean would they run a "Chefography" on her. I meant would
they bother mentioning her or commemorating her birthday in any way at
all. From what I could see, they didn't.

The two PBS stations in my area did, but only because they're still in
the throes of a pledge drive... okay, all right, truth be told, they're
not. The pledge drives ended last weekend, but yesterday they re-ran
their prepared shills for Julia's DVDs and shamelessly pushed their
drive for just one more afternoon. So I guess you could say that even
public television didn't respectfully remember Julia on her birthday,
electing to ride the cash cow instead.
