ABC-TV Greenlights new series "Good Christian Bitches."
(Excerpt) Read more at deadline.com ...
Who would want to watch a bunch of the UGLIEST women on earth having sex... PUKE!
It's called The Evening News.
The article said they are producing a “yet unnamed” show based on the book by this title.
I saw an article where the band “New Pornographers” had a show cancelled at Calvin College because of the name.
Yet there is a civic owned theater in Houston with a band booked with the F-word in their name.

Such is the culture.
Idiocracy, here we come (recall what Fuddruckers eventually became)...
Okay okay. I’m at least as offended as the next person but lets read the article.
“....dramedy based on Kim Gatlin’s book Good Christian Bitches. The untitled project, which will be written by Steel Magnolias and The First Wives Club scribe Robert Harling, has received a rich put pilot commitment by ABC after the network and CBS went down to the wire in their pursuit of the dramedy.”
So its the books name they are adapting it from. The project is still untitled. I myself will never have anything to do with the author.
You mean, “The View”?
I thought "Sex and the City" *had* good ratings.....
About the Author
Kim Gatlin
Dallas native Kim Gatlin has spent most of her professional life in the fields of charitable fundraising and commercial real estate title sales.
In Good Christian Bitches, Kim puts a voice to the downside of gossip in a light-hearted piece of fiction but with a message that she hopes will resonate with women everywhere.
Like the feisty, charismatic women in Good Christian Bitches, Kim and the women in her life are bold, sassy and strong. She counts her mother, sister, girlfriends, cousin and two steadfast Southern Baptist grandmothers in that group—all women who use these traits as assets and gifts.
As an advocate for numerous charitable organizations, Kim is committed to fundraising for a variety of causes including the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation where she sits on the board, Crystal Charity Ball, Alzheimer’s Association, Dallas Cattle Baron’s Ball benefiting the American Cancer Society, and Children’s Medical Center Women’s Auxiliary.
Kim lives in the Park Cities area of Dallas with her two children.
Good Christian Bitches is her first book.
They wouldn’t do this if it was insulting to Muslims.
This is ABC giving the middle finger to Christians.
Because - who is interested in a show that is just about everyday life?
Oh -wait... Seinfeld survived how many seasons?
..cause Katie Couric already has a gig at the moment??
After comments made by Supreme Court Justice Breyer, all we Christian have to do is to incite enough violence and the government will shut this down.
Does he really want to live in a society like that?
How come no one greenlights a series called “Stupid Liberal Whores”?
because they wouldn’t be able to pick just one show to call that?
And, by the time they picked the cast from the millions of them, the season would be over.
It’s a carbon copy of “Desperate Housewives” that takes place in Dallas.
How about Muslim Whores gone wild?
Filth.
“Holmes on Homes,” “Burn Notice” and many (but not all) old movies, too, on TCM.
It’s getting close to being a toss up.
However, the intel is pretty good on some news shows. In doses, of course.
The Net, Hulu and DVDs are looking more appealing though.
