Maybe it was the umpteenth “F Bush” tag that seen in the subway station. Or maybe it was President Bush’s interview on Sixty Minutes last night. But recent news about the war, troop deployments and civil rights has infused us with feeling like we're in the 21st Century version of the Wonder Years. This is not the Sixties, but it seems like today’s commemoration of Martin Luther King, Jr. has gotten some of us in that Sixties kind of mood.

Elsewhere in the Ist-a-verse
Gothamist posts on the capture of a NYC perv thanks to Little Brother and a camera phone. They also scour the city for vodka martinis and Shamrock shakes and spot the friend from the Wonder Years at a city law firm. New York police think that Littlejohn is their man.
Paul Pfieffer Lives!
Back in the 1980s, when we were little nerds in Brooklyn, the Paul Pfieffer character on the Wonder Years was our patron saint. Asthmatic, near-sighted, and underweight-- he had it all, and was played with great-verve by Josh Saviano. We hadn't thought much about him in the last 20 years, but naturally assumed he went the way of all child actors and was clutching a crackpipe in some drainage ditch in the San Fernando valley. Not so! Turns out Josh turned away from Hollywood and got a law degree from Benjamin Cardozo right here in the city! Television's loss is Morrison Cohen LLP's gain. If you're in need of a corporate lawyer, give him a ring! [Via SaveManny.]

TV Finales
Gothamist is more interested in what happens on some other shows, so we're tracking the dates of some other finales to note, thanks to Zap2it's Season Finales roundup...we're more interested in Scrubs, The O.C., Angel, and Law & Order (which didn't make their list).
