Friday LinkFrogging – 1/15/10

What a week it has been.

Earthquakes.

Celebrity Deathmatches.

And the Cowboys won a playoff game.

That, kids, is what they call a segue. 

Please say hello to this week’s cheesecake, Sarah Shahi.

Ms. Shahi is a former Dallas Cowboy cheerleader and co-star of the dearly departed NBC cop/conspiracy drama Life.

Sarah was slated to be last week’s cheesecake, but was pushed back for topicality, both last week and this week.

The NBC late night situation was just beginning to bubble last Friday.  I knew if we held out until this week Sarah would be a much better choice.  Turns out I was right.

Early on in our LinkFrogging series, I wished karmic payback on Jay Leno.

Why?

Because one of the shows that was killed to make room for the ill-fated Jay Leno Show was Life.

Now I ask you, woud you rather look at Leno’s skunk head or Sarah.  Exactly.  For that and that alone Jay should be forced to spend eternity watching his own show.

That’s what I thought.
