What's working for me (July 14-20)

1. "Generation Kill." I don't know how "realistic" it is, but it's certainly faithful to Evan Wright's book about a band of Marines' harrowing duty in Iraq.

2. "Psych" on USA. The most underrated comedy on TV (now that "30 Rock" has its Emmy) returns Friday.

3. Sami Al-Haj back at Al-Jazeera. Needlessly detained at Gitmo for six years, the cameraman will now head up the Arabic channel's new human rights desk.

... AND WHAT'S NOT

1. "The Cleaner." Ben Bratt's new A&E drama shows what happens when you cross the "Intervention" reality show with cheese classic "The A-Team": You get a mess.

2. Press restrictions in China. The Olympic hosts will allow live coverage from Tiananmen Square six hours a day — including 9-11 p.m., when protests are unlikely to embarrass officials.

3. Tony Snow, RIP. He was a bright spot at a time when Republicans and the White House were under an ever-present dark cloud.
