I was flipping through channels this morning and came across a movie called “Smile”... the info button made it sound like a family friendly feel-good movie.

I turned it off when the mother (Linda Hamilton) explained to her 17 year old to remember to take her birth control pills every single morning.

I’m a big fan of David James Elliott (JAG) and would like to see him on TV again weekly, so I tried really hard to like the show. However, I couldn’t. In real life, Leslie Bibb hates conservatives, and she isn’t afraid to say so on Twitter, and I couldn’t get that out of mind as I watched her. Plus DJE was really only in about 10% of the scenes, so I gave up watching it after about 3 episodes.

“I wonder how well This show will do....? “

Starring that “good” Christian, Anne Heche.

Wonder how low hollyweird can sink?

At least until after the election....maybe they aren’t should which way the wind is gonna blow.

It is amazing how stupid they think Americans are...what idiot had the bright idea that American Christians wouldn’t be offended if they just used the initials of the offensive words instead of the actual words?

I mean really...that is truly pathetic.

What about if we had a show that was called “GCN” instead of the dreaded word itself-is it any less insulting and revolting?

I think that show is trash! My 25 yr old daughter loves it. My daughter is a born-again, Bible-believing Christian and sees noting wrong with watching it. I don’t watch it but have seen enough bits and pieces to know what it promotes. I’ll stick to the old shows on MeTV.

I must agree - the first time I watched it I thought some parts of it were insulting but then realized it was mocking people that pretend to be something they aren't. It was pretty poorly written though, and you could see it heading for the trash heap after a few episodes.

Actually.. It wasn’t a bad show, and I know all you god fearing folk know everyone of those women and men in your church. If you say you don’t, your lying.

She said I was a prude.

I hope you answered, "Yes, but you're a blasphemous heathen! And the road to hell is broad, but the path to heaven is narrow and few there be that find it"!

I have a brother & sister-in-law the same way. It's time to stop being nice to these heathen, socialist retards. I refuse to take any liberal garbage & crap from even family members. If they make comments to me, I make comments back to them.

We are in war against socialism & 0dumb0. Just like in CW I, families were split in two. We are at that point now.

What does GCB mean so I can be appropriately offended?

GCB = Good Christian Bitches

Now try to get ABC/SeeBS/NBC/CNN, etc to put on a pilot series called GMB -- Good Muslim Bitches, and guess which one would never see the light of day!

To all those that say the show mocked God or Christians, it didn't. It mocked hypocrites! The characters went to church and claimed to be Christians but did not exhibit any Christian values. I've known people like this and I'm sure you have too.

So since the point of the show was to mock hypocrites but not Chrisians per se, then lets see a series called "Good Black/Muslim/Gay/Latino/Asian/etc Bitches to mock any of those hypocrites and see which of these ever see the light of day vs Good Christian Bitches .....Oh wait!

The worst sort of folk I’ve met are those in churches who feel like they have to be the big “anti hypocrite” sheriffs in their churches,,,,those who feel like they are qualified to judge the “supposedly judgmental”.

Human behaviour is complicated and the Holy Spirit works in mighty stange ways in folks, “raising up valleys and lowering mountains and making straight highways” in the deserts of folks hearts for our Lord to walk upon. Proverbs says “as iron sharpens iron, people sharpen each other like knives.”

A mature Christian can seem unpleasant at times to a younger Christian with a lot to learn and having a “Piss and vinegar” attitude that needs to be purified from his or her life. There is a tendency on the count of such immature ones to project their own worst inner attitudes on such mature Christians.

Allegedly the show’s star, Kristin Chenowith, proclaims that she is a Christian in real life.

I guess like Britney Spears is a Christian.
