Ryan Seacrest: Icon, Non-Scientist, Pipe

In my pants.

Which, according to the clip, is a song his manager-dad character wrote when Hannah, aka Miley Stewart, played by Miley Cyrus, was a tot.

Miley (Cyrus, that is) confided to the reporters that it can be hard, the pressure of being part of a performing dynasty, but -- speaking for herself and cast mate Emily Osment (daughter of Eugene, sister of Haley Joel), which Miley did a lot of during the Q&A -- "we love what we do so much, it's our dream and we're living it out." Billy Ray said he swore after doing Pax's "Doc" he'd never do another series but decided to audition for the "Montana" role after reading the script because "it all begins with what's on the page."

At HGTV's Q&A session, reporters learned that viewers have given the network permission to broaden its definition of "home" to include such things as an airplane that's been tricked out with all the creature comforts. And that HGTV viewers are very, very sticky, which is industry-speak for hanging around a lot, and that there has been so much growth in bathrooms.

"I couldn't be more excited about bathrooms!" gushed Angela Chee, host of HGTV's "I Want That!"

And they learned a lot about crafting, from the hosts of DIY Network's new series "Creative Juice." The hosts used to work in the movie industry, doing set designs, costume designs and such, then decided to open a craft shop across from one of the studios where Jennifer Garner and Jennifer Love Hewitt -- Love to her friends -- have showed up to "craft." Decoupage, by the way, is so out it's in, but the big trend in crafting is "recrafting." Which, they explained, is similar to punk-rock crafting -- you know, hubcap chandeliers and scrapbooks made out of license plates.

Just three hours into Winter TV Press Tour 2006, BET had already staged the tour's first filibuster, filling up so much of its allotted 45 minutes with executive blah, blah, blahing that reporters had only eight minutes in which to ask questions of the exec producers of returning "College Hill," new "Lil' Kim: Countdown to Lockdown" and a docudrama about the football players and marching band at Grambling State University, among other shows. Reporters who attempted to ask them questions right after the Q&A session were told sternly to get out of the way so that photographers could take pics of the people onstage.

They did learn that BET's newish entertainment president, Reginald Hudlin, feels the whole Lil' Kim situation -- she's now serving a year and a day in the slammer after lying to a federal grand jury and again on the stand at a trial about what she saw at a shooting outside a Manhattan radio station in 2001 -- is "very Fellini-esque." (He and "Countdown to Lockdown" exec producer Tracey Edmonds didn't call it lying, they called it "not snitching.") And members of the Grambling State marching band performed, which was for sure the highlight of Day 1 of Winter TV Press Tour 2006.
