"MacGyver" is on YouTube!]]> Look, you're going to be reading a lot on AdAge and NewTeeVee and Silicon Alley Insider about YouTube's deal with CBS to run full-length TV shows, and what this means for online-video advertising models and what this means for the Google-owned site's rivalry with Hulu, the joint venture between NBC and News Corp. Blah blah blah. Let me abbreviate it for you:

MacGyver will now be available on YouTube, and you won't have to watch it in frequently taken-down 10-minute chunks. Yeah, you didn't know that was a CBS show, and you didn't care. But it's on YouTube! Californication, too. It airs on Showtime, which is owned by CBS. But what it really means to me is that my Duchovny-obsessed writer, Paul Boutin, is going to get even less done. Thanks, YouTube!

Maybe next time she can torture him into confessing what, exactly, he does besides show up at parties to pose with hotties. Can you come up with a better caption? Do so in the comments. The best one will become this post's new headline. Yesterday's winner: "Lectroid Julia Bigboote's pheromonic camouflage fails at the worst possible moment " by matto. (Photo by Marc Salsberry)
