I would watch "All Iranian Christian" series if it were actually shown in Iran.

Not holding my breath, though.
Being forced to see a wholesale replacement of the main actors weekly would be depressing.

Actually I would watch All American Muslim religiously (no pun intended) if the actors were "disappeared" weekly.

Every little bit counts.

That reminds me, I need to get to Amazon and give my opinion of a rare event in my bibliophile life: The third book I may be unable to finish, and I am struggling mightily to do so:

The third Target, by Joel C. Rosenberg, fiction. The first book that I have read by Rosenberg; highly recommended, but so far disappointing.
The first quarter of the book was plodding and seemingly pointless. I may have to read a second book by the author before giving up, to be fair.
Unfortunate, I have already bought three kindle versions.

The story seems to belong to the alternate universe where the muslim national leaders are activists in the positive sense, reasonable, rational and honest.
Unfortunately, the muslims that matter are the hundreds of millions of mindless killers, both active and unmasked, who make that alternate universe, like our actual one, a most undesirable place; that reality is brushed aside.

It is impossible to comment further without revealing spoilers.

Wait...so you mean adding people to the working pool as we did with women and later with illegal aliens may decrease the average wage? Who but an economics major could have guessed that? I thought it was greedy business owners.

“There is some very good writing out there these days. Sure, some series are poorly written, but there are some wonderful gems.”


Totally agree. And eating puke isn’t so bad, if you carefully weed out the “bad” bits.
