Need a TV Show Recommendation? Just Ask Guru Graydon

Graydon Carter

Every once in a while a piece of media news comes across our radar that is so hilarious in its sincerity we can barely contain ourselves.

Almost just as often, a yoga mat toting friend of ours will feign concern at our vapid existence, and over tofu pad thai will ask "who is your guru?"

Thankfully, one of our greatest wishes has come true. We can now laugh at high profile media people being completely ridiculous and satisfy our spiritual quest. Thanks to TiVo’s new partnership with various "prominent magazines," viewers can get advice from editors of such important cultural touchstones as Vanity Fair, Sports Illustrated, and Star on what to watch on TV. Amazing isn't it — those pubs, respectively, just about cover our mind, body, and soul.

For instance, a TiVo sub that chooses Vanity Fair as a guide will be offered movies culled from the magazine’s list of the 50 best films of all time. The titles selected by Vanity Fair editors––the current list includes Annie Hall and Goodfellas––will automatically be recorded by TiVo every two weeks.

We absolutely can not wait to start programming our DVR to Guru Graydon's must watch list. We'd even watch CBS if he told us too.
