Well, Showtime's owned by the same company that owns CBS. So them airing it doesn't necessarily mean they want to. If they think they're going to get a lot of new subscribers over this, well, I think that's pretty naive. But the production company and/or specific execs who made this movie? I don't know. Good question.

BTW, this seems like a good time to point out one further truth.. in my own lainie truth alert.. living in Southern California as I do. These last two weeks have been rather interesting. I know the rest of the country jokes about not caring about the Los Angeles area, but the truth is a good portion of it was on fire for over a week (and San Diego fared even worse). The national media just about ignored this as a breaking story. They picked it up on Monday morning (10/27), after the fires raged all weekend, but the Internet, and Free Republic in particular, kept the word out about details, news, etc. You simply couldn't get this information anywhere else. The media was SOLIDLY trumped, even here locally.

This is airing after "Queer as Folk". Go figure who it is targeted to. I guess they think gay=stupid?
