How about a show about surviving in the city and/or tips and tricks for people who've lived in the 'burbs (or related settings) that you won't find in any guide.
With the Light review. Not enough is said about this series and more needs to be said, especially considering the fact that it's subject matter is misunderstood by way too many people in the world.
Forgive me if it's already been suggested, but how about "Shadowrun". The game, the story, the video games, the books, I'd love to hear more about this world.

Hey, if you're hurting for Thursday ideas and you wouldn't mind having a guest I could talk about making knives. It's kind of an interesting topic and I know a bit about it.

Were it no so hard to find, I'd suggest "The Best policy" by Randall Garrett - It's about a guy who gets picked up by aliens, who have a perfect lie detecting machine, and want to stage a hostile takeover of earth. The guy must essentially ensure every sentence is literally true, but in such a way that it constructs a massive overarching lie the aliens that earth is superior, and therefore, they could not defeat them. Also, it's short enough that it would be a novella that people would read.
Now really Scott, have you tried intensive re-education camp?
The problem is that people in the realm of logic also typically have strong morals. We know that we could use the evil trickery of the enemy to trick people into being good. For example, you could setup a Fox News that uses all the same psychology and propaganda to get people to love science and such. However, we can't bring ourselves to stoop to that level.
If you can find someone who simultaneously is an awesome rational type person, but also willing to take away people's freedom and force them into camps, that's a rare and dangerous fucking person because they are smart and evil simultaneously.

Yeah, groan if you must, but, in the words of Parappa the Rappa, "I GOTTA BELIEVE!!!"
I am incapable of making hamburgers without this song lodging itself into my head.
You know, the one you said I'd skype in with you for. :-|(srsface)
Frank Herbert's Science-Fiction Epic: Dune.
As I said, just switch the book reviews over to the normal review format.
