another one bites the dust.



and I wouldnt put it past someone in Hollywood to actually try "the Jesus show" as a real endeavour

[Kidan]

All I have to say is:

"Mwahhahahahhaah"

[SmithL]

Why are so many of these movies and shows so wildly off-base and borderline insulting to any Christian?

It's intended that way.

BTTT

How stupid of our local NBC affiliate to carry this after I asked them not too. Now myself and many others will have this bad feeling about them for a long time to come.

West Wing - gone
Book of Daniel - gone
Will & Grace - gone

Good riddance to a shameful ripoff name of one of our greatest orators from the Antebellum period.

I purposefully watched the View last week to see if Star Jones had any reaction to her comments about terrorism getting heavy publicity.

They avoided that topic. lol

Instead they had on Aiden Quinn, star of "Daniel". The ladies fawned all over him and his show. They could not understand the public's bad reaction to it. So Quinn comes out with the ladies to promote his show and he first endearing words out of his mouth were "Grow Up America".

I turned off the show at that point. What a way to build an audience.

These shows are inherently doomed because they contradict the ultimate Truth, and frankly, there's enough grace floating around for people to recognize these heretical steaming piles for what they are.

I'm just curious which bozo at NBC decided that an ex-Catholic practicing homosexual had something important to say about Christianity. These are the people that end up as career Darwin Award winners.

Wow! What did it last, three weeks? Awesome!

"You just can't make a show about "Any family USA" these days, can you? Once again, middle America gets a slap in the face. "

Bring back All in the Family and keep it in its Politically incorrect format. I guarantee it will be the top show on TV.

UHMM...I really wouldn't put Will & Grace and West Wing into the same category. They were WILDLY successful shows. They just ran their natural course.

Goodbye to yet another shot at a fictional television program revolving around religion. Networks have tried it before, with hideous results. The more recent have included "Jesus: The Miniseries" and "Noah's Ark", which struck a factual iceberg and sank off the coast of Artistic License.

Yet "Little House on the Prairie" and "The Waltons" continue to run in syndication.

West Wing - gone
Book of Daniel - gone
Will & Grace - gone

Sadly,
7th Heaven - gone
Three Wishes - gone

America's reply: "F*ck off, Aiden."

"Will & Grace - gone"

Promise? I had not heard that but I sure hope you are right. That program is beyond offensive.

So much for the "controversy is good publicity" theory.
