Jesus Walks is one of those miraculous songs that you hear for the first time and immediately look forward to hearing on a semiregular basis for the next 30 or 40 years. It's built on a booming gospel sample from the Arc Choir and one of West's typical contradictions, his admission that he's not particularly religious and his anger that songs with Jesus in the title don't get played on the radio. Che Smith, a friend of West's from Chicago who raps as Rhymefest, gave West the sample, wrote some of the first verse...
...daily, 7 p.m. E.T.), host Suzanne Sena guides us from Hugh Hefner's grotto at the Playboy Mansion to Ed McMahon's baby pictures in his kitchen to professional former star Danny Bonaduce's guitar collection in his rec room. HGTV has a raft of celeb-home specials and semiregular series like TV Moms at Home, where Estelle Harris (Seinfeld's Estelle Costanza), wearing about 10 lbs. of jewelry, reclines on the fainting couch in her cavernous living room: "It's the size of Lithu...

Consider Zhirinovsky Beat, a semiregular Chronicles department that follows the undignified doings of the Russian ultranationalist Vladimir Zhirinovsky. Like Charlie Chaplin's lampoon of Hitler in The Great Dictator, it deflates a truculent buffoon without losing sight of the fact that some windbags blow up with a bang. "Bruce is a first-rate journalist whose work has a witty...
...sloe-eyed former Independent Television News (ITN) newscaster Anna Ford, featured interviews averaging five minutes each and lighter fare. The first week showed Frost, cheeky and condescending as usual, performing such tasks as reading bloopers from the morning papers. Frost and Ford will also be hosts on a semiregular feature called Through the Keyhole, in which a probing TV-am reporter rummages around the home of a celebrity, psychoanalyzing the star from the décor and belongings, while Frost, Ford and the invaded subject watch and chuckle away in the studio...
