No To 'Yes, Dear'
Citing 'security concerns,' Tom Ridge pulls the plug on the popular CBS sitcom

http://msnbc.msn.com/Default.aspx?id=3890317&p1=0


This is not a joke.

This is the future.

Vote Democrat in 2004.

7. How can you say that?
Don't you realize they are now parsing orange into light regular orange and deep orange crush?


from the article:

"Mr. Ridge added that, effective Monday, CBS would replace "Yes, Dear" with repeated airings of Ed Bradley's "60 Minutes" interview with Michael Jackson "until the end of time."

The Homeland Security chief said that the government urged CBS to pull "Yes, Dear" from the schedule after intelligence officials reported "increased chatter" about the sitcom in recent weeks."


This is crazier than an entire plane filled with frightened passengers actually applauding because they landed w/o flying into a building.

So, when do we bring out Osame? September or October?

6. Jamie's a hottie but not on that show!
'Yes, Dear' has another hottie on it - Jean Louisa Kelly!

Still a ridiculous show though ... http://www.tvguide.com/tv/showguide/showPage.asp?iProgramID=2544984

4. About time somebody cracked down
I mean there is a lot of crummy entertainment out there.

Plus TV distracts people from the real entertainment extravaganza of the 21st century--Weblogs.

8. Locking.
A satirical headline from a humorist's column is clearly misleading ... exacerbated by "This is not a joke." Please see Rules to start discussion threads in the General Discussion forum.
