"Apple this week flicked the switch on its iTunes Genius recommendation engine for movies and TV shows, a feature it originally planned to introduce alongside the release of iTunes 8.1 earlier this month," AppleInsider reports.

"The technology lets iTunes Store customers select any song from their library and then click the Genius button to create a playlist of similar-sounding songs from their library. A Genius sidebar also appears on the right-hand side of the iTunes window and recommends music from the iTunes Store that customers don't already have, based on the songs they select," AppleInsider reports.

The delay was because "Jenna's Playhouse 8" kept showing up on everyone's Genius playlist.

Sorry, Apple!

Quick! Someone call 911!

I think Wal E Cleaver above is having a seizure.
