How come a discussion on whether or not Life on Mars is PC turns into a full fledged rant on the gay lobby? If I remember right the gay victim was killed by his gay partner anyway, not terribly diverse there either.

And my biggest problem with the adoption system is that we allow foreign adoption while we still have kids waiting. I’m generally pro-legal immigration but there’s a real problem with 100,000 American kids waiting for somebody while we’re importing babies from all over the place.

I thought Fred did well in this episode. He seemed to have a bigger role than would make sense for one episode. One would think the COD would be reappear.

I’ve also heard rumblings that Fred will do a cameo on Law & Order.

It was your intrest in promoting others disturbingly deviant sex lives, certainly not any lack thereof.

The program is a lecture on political correctness with the embrace of homosexuality as the base. Just like most everything else that Hollywood coughs up.

I didn’t promote anything, except maybe a good TV show not getting the ratings it deserved. I have no interest in anybody’s sex lives. Just like I said, if it doesn’t violate the 3 rules (willing, adult, human) I don’t care. I’m not pro-{deviant sex life that doesn’t violate the 3 rules}, I’m not anti-{deviant sex life that doesn’t violate the 3 rules}, I don’t care. Don’t read any extra into what I write, I’m not subtle, I say what I mean and I mean what I say. When I say I don’t care it means I don’t care, not interested, not promoting, don’t care.

No it isn’t. They had 1 (one) episode that dealt at all with gays and that was one dead gay guy killed by another gay guy.

(SPOILER TIME)
The big punchline on where the show sits on the 70s vs now is the end of the British show. That one got to end under writer control. In that show it turns out Tyler was in a coma, we wakes up, and he hates now. He hates it for being sterile, bland and politically correct, so he jumps off a building to go back to the 70s. Not politically correct, as No Nuts can attest.

There you go hallucinating political correctness again. There’s not one drop of it in that post, once again it’s all BEHIND your eyes not in front of them.

If you’re so bored stop replying. Of course if actually bothered to read what was written you probably wouldn’t be bored either. But it’s obvious that’s asking way too much.
