Oddites is actually a television show I would--and will!--watch, and I am so proud of all my friends whose knowledgeable, thoughtful, and non-histrionic participation is elevating it well above the usual reality television fare!<\/p><p>You can view my favorite clip from last night's episode--which stars a very charismatic playwright and Obscura regular named Edgar and his encounter with a straitjacket--by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/dsc.discovery.com\/videos\/oddities-is-that-a-straightjacket.html\">here<\/a>. Note: you will have to sit through an obligatory commercial to get to the good stuff, but  it is definitely worth it.<\/p><p>Oddities will be airing Thursday nights at 8:00 PM on the Discovery Channel; I <span>highly highly highly<\/span> recommend you find a way to check it out (I surely will be...).
