I recently watched “Bite the Bullet” and she was pretty good in that. She had some good pictures in the 1960’s up to about the mid 1970’s. After that not so much.

I caught the last few minutes of the show.

On the fake Murphy Brown news show, they are interviewing Trump’s EPA Head by remote, with the Woman who is supposedly in Alaska.

The usual Climate Change blather, then they ask the Woman what qualifies her for the Job. She responds that she was the Cashier at the Gift Shop at Trump Tower. yuk yuk

Then the Male News character comments abut the lack of snow and where the Woman is and says Antarctica instead of Arctic.

That all happened in three minutes. I can’t imagine how lame the show was uptp that point.

Awwwwwwwwwwww!

I didn’t see it listed in my TV schedule and missed it.

— Pulling out a repressed memory: did the same thing with the original 20-whatever years ago.

#5 Roseanne should have a show in Hawaii where she has property. She could be a private eye living on a estate and driving a Ferrari.

Murphy Brown on SeeBS already starts with a 69% lead in network viewership over Fox

Just from demographics, it shouldn't be close

I caught a few seconds of that flipping around. The worst was that thin ugly blond saying “you do know climate and weather are not the same thing”.

What left wing drivel.

They dug up this wretched corpse of a leftist from the crypt thinking they could continue with the subversive BS they used in the 1980s series.

Didn’t work, eh?

I like that idea.

Maybe call it ‘Maggie P I’, with Roseanne as the chief detective. What about Higgens? Maybe Hasselhof?

Yes! Love hearing they flopped. The left hasn’t gotten the word they aren’t funny anymore except to the intolerant Lefties. Besides the lefties are too busy protesting and causing mayhem to watch tv!

Mirthless Brown, a bad sitcom rises from the grave
only to sink back into the muck.

Hell, the WPXL test pattern might do better.

Murphy Brown. I seem to remember that as a Groove Tube adhesive.

#48 Hasselhof would be perfect. He could run TJ’s and have lots of pretty women in bathing suits hanging around and a car that can talk. Use the voice of the guy who played Higgins.... : )

I don’t know that she is, but would it really surprise you?

Saw it—wasted 1/2 hour. Poorly written. Too political—too frozen in the Liberal Mind set of the past. Ice is melting joke didn’t work. It will not last unless Soros infuses money into it in an an attempt to force a Liberal globalist world (ran by Soros) down the national throat. Having Hillary walk on was the Kiss of death!

I think that should be “GASSY”.

You probably needed some ginger tea after that to treat the nausea. ;-)

Oops, yes, thanks. I ruined my own joke. :-)

And you know you’re in trouble when lib outlets like the NYT and Variety pan the re-boot. Their reviews were not kind, and believe me, they were looking for anything positive in the episodes they screened.

Does she still have that Deep Monotone voice or is it high and squeaky now
