Debora Kellom, director of operations for Wade Funeral Home in St. Louis, Mo., works far from Hollywood, but she has embraced the new trend too.

...that a spike in your ratings, or are you just happy to see me?). But the choice led to some bad p.r. last week when director Spike Lee sued TNN, claiming it was associating itself with his name for "commercial gain." Somewhere, watching Nick at Nite in his den, Nick Nolte is kicking himself...
