I love SpongeBob SquarePants, but this Truth or Square special smacks of a sitcom stunt, trying to pull in ratings. The press release says,"First there was the intimate tea party in the tree dome. Then, there were all those playful karate chops, and the ripped pants? For years SpongeBob and Sandy were just friends, but we've always wondered... could there be something more? Would these two ever end up together as sponge and wife?" Ugh. I feel the influence of Jon and Kate in this publicity. Hopefully, Truth or Square will be smarter and funnier that I'm expecting. Find out tonight at 8:00 p.m. ET on Nick.

Jaroo.com is a new website that streams old cartoons for free. It's Hulu.com, but for kids. Supposedly. Looks to me like it's really more for grown-ups hoping to capture some Saturday-morning-cartoon nostalgia. Regardless, you'll find gems like Strawberry Shortcake, Liberty's Kids and Inspector Gadget.

Everyone agrees they've had enough of the loud and obnoxious bikers that have arrived in South Park. The boys are taking on the Harley riders. They thrown down the "F word" and the game is on. Watch "The F Word," premiering tonight at 10:00 p.m. ET on Comedy Central.
