    I watched about 10 minutes of it. I'm pissed because that's 10 minutes of my life I wasted on that crap.

    I watched about five minutes after Last Comic Standing was over...

    Awful doesn't even begin to describe it.

    When does Big Brother start again?

    This show sounds like it demands a Joe Bob Briggs-style review. Does any actress have "talents"?

    Zero breasts. Two beasts (the cokehead momma and Grant Show's moustache). Burnt wieners. Classic Penthouse. Gratuitous polyester. Gratuitous Norman Greenbaum. Martini fu. Disco fu. Lude fu. Drive-In Academy Award nomination to Jack "I Was in 'Pirates of the Caribbean, Really, I Was!" Davenport, for tellin' off his daughter when she asks if playin' "Saturday in the Park" on the 8-track as they drive by the park is ironic: "That's your department, Laurie!" Drive-In Academy Award nomination to Lara Parilla for purrin', "Ever since we got into it, Tom and I have reached this whole other level of intimacy. Not to mention the incredible sex.”

    Two stars. Joe Bob says check it out.

    Nice to see Grant Show get some work again. I still think this show will be canceled before the end of the month, which during the summer would mean it really, really, really sucks...

    That's a great pull.

    FWIW, gang, I met Ron Jeremy last night. He's about 5'7" tall. Nice enough guy. Had his pic made with chicks about 40 times.

    Network exec meeting

    "Hey how about we combine That '70s Show with The Ice Storm"

    "Wow, I like it. But how will we make it different from them."

    "This show will suck."

    AV Club gave it a B.
    Little surprising given the early reviews here.
    I didn't see it, and I have no desire to, but it didn't sound awful

    I didn't think it was as bad as some of you.
    I dug the music, though :D

    That's a fucking fantastic pull.

    "What if I told you Dot thinks you're cute?"

    Oh, and Swingtown was awful.
