NBC's annual showing of It's A Wonderful Life has been replaced by a televised beagle show.  
No seriously.  Judges walk out under a spotlight, examine the teeth of a beagle with a very unfortunate name, while two announcers give the play by play in a tone of breathless anticipation--almost as if someone actually gives a brass nickel if the beagle can chew his puppy chow or not.
This is usually where I insert a scathingly sarcastic comment.  Somehow, though, I don't feel it's needed here.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
