Tonight's Top Pick is The Making of Gladiator II, which CBS is airing behind four reruns. I'm guessing this was a relatively last-minute acquistion. Compare this with NBCUniversal's prolonged campaign to make us all well aware of Wicked. Like I said Friday night, if you're not interested in either of those movies, or Keke Palmer's Master of Me, or Paul Reiser's Life, Death, and Rice Pudding, don't watch a talk show this week.
