I got a chance to see Al Franken in action on the Sundance Channel
I'm glad they put him back there again, as that was the entire reason I got digital cable.

Gee, I thought he was pretty good. Considering how much flak he gets here sometimes, I was prepared to be unimpressed. He doesn't have alot of bells and whistles, mind you. But I thought the discussion was fairly interesting. He doesn't rant like Mike or Randi, or go boing, but I think I kinda liked him.

But then, I also like his books.

Maybe its just my age. Gettin' up there, I am.

1. I enjoy the show too!
I love his guests. There are times the show drags, but for the most part it is very informative and lots of fun to watch! I still miss the "Oy Yoy Yoy" show because I like the Jewish humor. His last time he did it, with the Israeli minister, was a riot! Although, they did cut out Joe Conason. :(

3. Where did she go?
I'm sorry I missed her if that's the case.

4. Writing a book.
She left to write about her experiences. I really liked her. She did keep Al on target, but I still love the show.
