Hey Charles...

Congratulations! This may be your 15 minutes. LOL!
All kidding aside, this is a great opportunity for
conservatives to "work it". I'm proud of you for
making a contribution (of sorts).

I liked the one where they took an old episode of The Cisco Kid and dubbed new dialogue over it. Classic.

Endangered Parking Lots ... good satire, and funny
in a "this could really happen" sort of scarey way.
Penn & Teller are funny, but too foul to watch.

I have a similar idea for "Media Circus." It would use the scene from Spartacus where the Roman general asks the defeated slave army to turn over Spartacus or all the slaves would be put to death. Kirk Douglas steps forwards and says, "I am Spartacus." Then one after another other slaves proclaim, "I am Spartacus" until there is one huge cacophony from the slave army repeating "I AM SPARTACUS!"

Okay, in my dubbed version, the Roman general asks the slave army to identify the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby. Kirk Douglas steps forward and proclaims, "I am the father!" The rest of the slave army follows suit until we hear them all yelling, "I AM THE FATHER!!!"

No. Sorry I wasn't more clear. I haven't seen it. I was just noting that even if the guys comments were indeed correct that it sounds like a mirror version of the Daily Show. And I doubt he criticized the Daily Show. That's all I meant.

Gotcha. I just wanted to include you in the
conversation because of your observation about
the reviewer. Seems to me there's a whole lotta
"sour grapes" causing a pucker over this new
comedy show. Better to wait, before judging.

The snippet they showed yesterday on H&C was awful, and that canned laughter was unbearable. I hope that wasn't a highlight.

FoxNews, in general, is becoming a comedy.

We are now in day 7 of all day breaking news of various aspects of Anna Nichole Smith's death, life, baby, son, husband, boyfriends, money.

I know, it's disgusting, isn't it? I've been firing off e-mails left and right to FNC, and have not received even one reply. What put me over the edge was when FNC shoved the excellent "War Stories with Oliver North" to the 10pm ET time slot, and stuck Whorealdo's sleazy, trash-filled show in the 8pm prime time slot.

I still cannot believe two polar opposites such as Brit Hume and Geraldo Riviera are on the same FNC payroll...

I'm giving it a chance.....the Rush and Ann Coulter clip was hilarious, and this was funny too. It's good to see the Dems made fun of in the same way Repubs have been made fun of for years.

Of course it's juvenile, half the population has an IQ under 95. That's why the Daily Show is a hit.

You can always be relied upon to offer a prescient observation. Good job Hun.

It must be liberal sabotage. The Fox network is responsible for some of the most thought-provoking, intellectual programming in the history of television.
