It wouldn't be much of a prize if unsuspecting homeowners were ambushed in their local hardware store and offered the chance to pay for their own elaborate renovations. They can do that anyway.

The DIY Network's popular slate of "Crashers" shows (which started with "Yard Crashers" and expanded with "Bath," "House," "Room" and "Kitchen" versions) has its hosts show up at home-improvement stores across the United States and offer to go home with people to provide elaborate, designer renovations.

There are as many explanations for Elisabeth Hasselbeck's departure from ABC's morning chat show "The View" as there are people involved, it seems.

To start with the most obvious one (in hindsight, anyway), she had an opportunity to join the popular and much talked-about Fox News morning show "Fox and Friends" (on which she debuted just a few weeks ago) and she took it.

Bones, on Fox
