(MCT) - Every now and then I make a list of things I’ve liked lately. Here’s a back-to-school edition.

1. “Boss”
According to the ratings, you’re not likely to have watched this great show starring Kelsey Grammer as Chicago’s brilliantly diabolical mayor. I hadn’t either until I downloaded the first season, a bargain at only $14.99. I was riveted, though watching it during last week’s teachers strike was unnerving. In “Boss” everyone with any power is corrupt or corruptible, except, maybe, and only maybe, the newspaper guy.

2. HomeMade Pizza Co.
