Can't wait to watch it flop on Showtime, assuming it even airs. Amazing that CBS found sponsors for it. Maybe they gave them a discount.

Has anyone heard how "K Street", the Clooney?Carvell?Matlin show is doing?
I keep hoping to hear it has been cancelled due to low ratings.

CBS is owned by ViaCom; so is Showtime. Our outrage was mis-aimed.

CBS dumps it? No matter. Showtime runs it, and it flops? No biggie. Michael Moore will buy the rights, and play it at every awards show in Hollywood. The Left will make sure of it.

After seeing a few photos of James Brolin in Reagan make-up the past couple of days, I have to admit I almost wish it could have aired. You can tell by looking at Brolin that they spent about $29.95 on the entire project. Of course, an actor of Brolin's credentials and talen don't come cheap. (/sarcasm) BTW, has he done anything since the Marcus Welby series?

Bill O'Reilly saw the same preview and his description of it was "cartoonish".

"The Reagans" has become the TV industries "Gigli".

In the role of Nancy Reagan, Judy Davis was seen barreling comically through the White House screaming at the top of her lungs at everyone who crossed her path.

Sounds more like a portrayal of Hillary than Nancy.

Hallmark still plans on distributing it overseas, where there will be no one to set the record straight or raise the questions on the truthfulness of the movie.

Hmmmmmm.
CBS may have a hit on their hands.

Why not just change the title to The Clintons?

From the description here it sounds closer to real life.

When Drudge played those clips, I thought it was a JOKE because the acting was awf, the music was hideous, the dialogue was horrible.....and THAT'S why Les (three-way in Clinton's White House Bathroom) Moonves pulled it. He didn't want CBS to be a LAUGHINGSTOCK!

In contrast to Davis' raging first lady, James Brolin was seen playing the role of Ronald Reagan with all the emotion of a piece of wood - a style which has long been Brolin's trademark.

He also plays the character Plank on Ed, Edd and Eddy on the cartoon channel.

Buckman got this a month ago? Did he write about it then, or is he jumping on the bandwagon now that the water's warm?

Well, I guess we didn't make them back down after all. Looks like it was ssssooooo BAD that not even the most virulent Reagan-hater would be able to admire it.
