CBC’s list of what we loved about the year 2006

Of note.

33. A&W commercial with weird, hungry yuppies. You know the ad: it’s the one with two awkward people in their early forties wrapping up what has obviously been a wretched first date at a posh restaurant. All of a sudden, she suggests they have dessert together at A&W. There, despite an insane caloric intake — a burger, fries and pop after a three-course meal? — things start to go swimmingly. Sublimely strange.

62. Kevin Dillon on season three of Entourage. Dillon continues to steal the show as Johnny (Drama) Chase, the hack actor who is reduced to making breakfast for his movie star half-brother, Vincent (Adrian Grenier). Drama’s relentless optimism about kick-starting his moribund acting career is both desperate and strangely heartwarming.

94. David Caruso versus acting. It’s not that we enjoy Caruso’s performance as Horatio Caine on CSI: Miami. Rather, we are comforted by its existence. Shatner’s Kirk impregnated fewer pauses; Al Pacino eats less ham; and what — what? — is with the sunglasses? Proof positive that you can be a spectacular failure, and millions of people might love you anyways. So inspiring.
