The Tiny Toons episode you weren't supposed to see
Perhaps some of you are already aware of the existence of this particular gem, but I was surprised to find online a banned episode of Tiny Toon Adventures from the early 90's. In it, Buster Bunny, Plucky Duck and Hamton Pig find a bottle of beer that never goes empty, then proceed to get drunk, steal a cop car, cause general chaos and collectively die by driving said car over a cliff.

Jay Leno’s Last Show
Jay Leno had his last show Friday night, turning over the show to Conan O’Brien.
Jay Leno took over “The Tonight Show” back in 1992 from Johnny Carson. And now after 3800 shows, Leno passes the Tonight Show on to Conan O’Brien.
Leno, 58, thanks everyone that helped make the show No. 1. Jay’s eyes filled with tears although he was still smiling.
Thankfully, Leno will remain with NBC and be hosting a new primetime show at 10 p.m. weekdays.
Leno’s show finale opened with a standing ovation from the audience and a monologue targeting politicians and other favorites.
“Seventeen years,” he began. “I want to thank all the people who made it possible. Michael Jackson, Monica Lewinsky, Bill Clinton. We could not have done this show without them.”

Isn't it ironic: Alanis Morissette lights up 'Weeds'
Actually, there's nothing all that ironic about Alanis Morissette joining the cast of Showtime's Weeds. I just really wanted to work that song title into the headline.

The 50 Greatest Documentaries
Based upon a poll of film makers, organized by Channel 4 in the UK, the 50 best documentaries of all time were chosen. Despite the unpromising screenshot image of Jimmy Saville at the beginning, this is great. Of course, I would differ with the selection, but that’s part of the game.
Total running time: approx 100mins.

Satellite-hacking boffin sees the unseeable
White-hat hacker Adam Laurie knows better than to think email, video-on-demand, and other content from Sky Broadcasting and other satellite TV providers is a private matter between him and the company. That's because he's spent the past decade monitoring satellite feeds and the vast amount of private information they leak to anyone with a dish.
"Looking at what kind of data you can see being broadcast, some of that is quite surprising," he says. "Things you would expect to be secure turn out not to be secure. The most worrying thing is you can just see all this data going by."
