Chalk it up to The Sixth Sense or the spiritual-supernatural drama Touched by an Angel, but the departed are no longer taking death lying down. And the spirits of TV present are no longer mere bogeymen or punch lines. They're, well, spiritual spirits: kindly characters, cast in emotional plots, who succor more than scare...
...named Kennedy. The arms rose up and the hands thrust out, rally-style, turning shoulder pads into great hulking wings, giving the reverential crowd their big Brahmin in all his glory, soaring in call-and-response - "Fight for Al Gore because...

...your whale T shirt and shorts and walking shoes with wool socks and a pack with a bottle of water and a bag of trail mix and head down the Bright Angel Trail from the South Rim. This is a splendid experience. You pass through a phalanx of men standing on the rim videotaping the canyon, panning from left to right and then right to left, and you plunge down the trail, which is broad and not too steep and studded with mule manure, and a hundred or so feet down, once you come around the second switchback...
