Three Miami-related TV items:

1. How did we miss a naked guy in a fat suit on Miami Beach? According to The Daily Mail, British comedian Matt Lucas "slipped into a naked fat woman's costume equipped with seaweed, cellulite and green nails" and wandered a parking lot in Miami Beach recently as part of a UK television show skit.

2. In case you are wondering how CSI:Miami (and similar shows) film special effects such as cars falling into giant sinkholes, click here.

3. As someone who is not an NFL fan and has never watched Dancing With the Stars, I am begging the Miami Herald and all other news outlets to slow down on the coverage of Jason Taylor. I agree that he looks great without a shirt on. But still. -- Tamara Lush
