Steve Carell

Another big winner at the Golden Globes was Steve Carell, for his show "The Office." This is basically the greatest new show on television. I love it and my roommates had better let me control to TV tonight, it comes on ABC at 9:30, right before "ER." Thursday is my favorite night for TV. (Its basically the only time i watch TV now.)
