Sheriffs to hold meeting after 4 lawmen indicted
It was a real bummer. I had been such a huge fan from the start. The sharp-witted pop culture references and fast-paced “joke a minute” style. I started to become invested in the characters and looked forward to my half-hour escape from reality. Then, in one fell swoop, it was gone.
Mystery. Sex. Scandal. Vanessa Williams.

Ah, the Video Music Awards. Unveiled in 1984, the annual MTV awards ceremony has come to be known as the sexed-up, crazy cousin of the less-edgy Grammys.

Fall is finally upon us, and with it comes the start of a new school year, the crisp air as the leaves begin changing their colors and the trek to Williams-Brice Stadium each Saturday as our Gamecocks take the field. But fall also brings something else new to the table each year: a fresh crop of television shows. Each year, big name networks NBC, CBS, MTV and the like introduce new series in the hopes of bringing in ratings and roping in thousands of viewers with "original" concepts. Some of the latest shows to be released play on a few series that have already been a big hit with viewers, so no matter what day of the week, we can all tune in to see what the networks have to offer.

The visitors from the future are settled in Terra Nova, a settlement whose leader is played by "Avatar's" (2009) Stephen Lang. The series will offer many special effects as the time travelers enter a lush and hazardous world of dinosaurs.
