Obama calls Kanye a 'jackass,' 'My Boys' picked up & more... Plus the world loses a great talent

At the end of the day, a quick rundown of the top TV stories of the moment...

But first, a shout out to the great Patrick Swayze, who lost his battle with pancreatic cancer today. From "The Outsiders" to "Dirty Dancing" to "Ghost," "Point Break" and that unforgettable "SNL" skit he paired with Chris Farley for, Swayze was a triple threat: skilled dancer, actor & musician. I'm also told he was a very nice man. He will be missed.
