Let us now consider Jerry Bruckheimer
Say what you will about producer Jerry Bruckheimer - and movie critics tend to be far harsher on the guy than TV critics - but without him, CBS might well be The CW.
Come the fall, Bruckheimer will be responsible for at least seven hours of the network's schedule - the three "CSI's," "Without a Trace," "Cold Case," "The Amazing Race" and the new "Eleventh Hour" - and, when you consider that his shows will usually comprise CBS's "Crimetime" repeats on Saturday, that means he's providing nine of the network's 22 primetime hours. And none of them as bad as "National Treasure," "Bad Boys 2," "Pearl Harbor," "Coyote Ugly," "Con Air, "Armageddon" or "Kangaroo Jack."

David Kronke was appointed Mayor of Television after a bloodless coup in 2000. Since then, he has improved infrastructure, championed greater educational opportunities and fought for reforms that have utterly erased corruption and incompetence from the television industry. Since Mr. Kronke has ascended to power, Television is a far better place.
