Becker: "Look I came down here with all of these people, if I leave with nothing I am going to look like a jackass."

He's right about one thing...

[longfellow]

doesn't anyone here remember the murphy brown/ VP Quale incident?

[1st-P-In-The-Pod]

LOL! I'm dyin' here! Thanks!

[MeekOneGOP]

At least there IS good news here:

Viewers won't have to suffer liberal pontificating on Becker for much
longer. CBS has announced that it won't return next season.

[L.N. Smithee]

I won't even watch re-runs of Cheers because of Ted Danson and Woody Harrelson. Commies both.

For what it's worth, Kelsey Grammer is a conservative, and has been bandied about as a potential future Congressman or Senator.

I haven't even tuned to CBS since the end of "Walker, Texas Ranger". ABC hasn't had anything worth watching for many years. NBC has the only remaining TV show that I watch. ER. As long as they keep the homosexual stuff toned down, I'll watch it. The off switch on my TV is very effective.

I saw this episode. I was a fairly faithful viewer. I said "was" because after that rant by the character of Becker, I saw more of Danson than Becker and we all know what that means..liberal slant!
I must say that I have noticed a big difference in the show this season. It USED to be funny...not any more. It's like Ted Danson is actually writing the show, or maybe it is Whoppie.
I am done with Becker...stick the tongue depressor in, I'm done!

Wow. We spend more money faster than any other entity in the history of the world, but it's just not enough. The government spends Microsoft's net worth in an afternoon, but it's just not enough. If only, if only, if only they could get their hands on more money, then they'd cure all the problems.

[ArrogantBustard]

"He's the one with the ice cream." [crowd of people from facility enter the office of the Deputy and Becker leaves.]

And there we have the core philosophy of liberalism revealed: "Gimme, gimme, gimme ..." That's all there is to it.

Becker: "Well, I am you know, I've been on the phone all afternoon calling every city agency I can think of and all I got was the typical bureaucratic run around."

So the answer according to the democrats is to make the bureaucracy even bigger.

The blind character ain't gay. He is something of a babehound, in fact.

[Recovering_Democrat]

I've never watched it, probably never will. Though I have seen commercials that show Doc Becker smoking cigarrettes. Ted really cares 'bout the kids, doesn't he? <\sarcasm>

[L.N. Smithee]

"Literate."

"For what it's worth, Kelsey Grammer is a conservative, and has been bandied about as a potential future Congressman or Senator."

I like Kelsey Grammer and occasionally watch Frasier. I'll have to confess, it's not too hard for me to boycott shows because I watch mostly Fox News and educational/history stuff. I like CSI. I doesn't seem to be political. I love South Park which is always hammering liberals like Barbra Streisand and Rosie O'Donnell.

I don't know how the manufacturers of this beverage are able to avoid copyright-infringement suits, but to my knowledge, they have.

Was Ted Danson in blackface when he decided to lecture the home viewing audience about politics and stupidity?

As Red would say (on That 70s Show), "what a dumbass".
