Ego TV

Spike Lee has seen the light. Of course, you must have heard that in an effort to remain in the public's immediate consciousness, Spike Lee attempted to block the renaming of TNN to "Spike TV." Well, it seems that Spike has settled his case, probably due to the fact that several other Spikes had come forward to join the case in a class-action suit, damaging his credibility. director Spike Jonez, the late Spike Jones' estate, Spike the dog from "Tom & Jerry," and James Marsters & Joss Whedon (for the Buffy character "Spike") have all laid claim to sole use of the name. OK, that's not true. But wouldn't that be cool?
