“Indeed, the sheer glut of 9/11-related programming during the run-up to the fifth anniversary has risked trivializing those events -- as if this were Valentine's Day or Halloween, triggering all those themed episodes that networks trot out.”

First it was “too soon”... now it's “too much”. I think Brian would rather have had 9/11's memory stricken from the books altogether.

Translation: This show puts blame where blame is due, therefore it sucks.

I think Brian would rather have had 9/11's memory stricken from the books altogether.

He'd want to leave in the parts about the Conspiracy by Bush to create a war.

Seems like Brian the homo is upset that they didn't cut out Clinton's refusal to take out Bin Laden from the script.

Variety seems to be trying to vilify the miniseries. Could it have anything to do with the Clintonites having a fit? Could it have anything to do with ole x42 personally calling ABC and requesting they edit or cancel it?

Is Variety trying to play it down to help out ole x42?

===

Bets are still taking place with odds on favorite that ABC will either cancel or edit.

Time will tell.

"Richard Clarke (Stephen Root), who exhibits mounting frustration as President Clinton's administration zippers problems"

Hmmm....

[Eagle50AE]

Brian will have to eventually face the truth. America was set up by 8 years of Slick Willie & Co.

Brian,.. ES&D

[CyberAnt]

But .. the drive-by was all excited about rehashing Katrina .. from one year ago .. and it wasn't too soon or too much .. films, hearings, etc.

Their hypocrisy continues to tell on their motives.

[roses of sharon]

Did Variety mention the glut of KATRINA PROGRAMMING???????????????????????

[SoCar]

O'Neill's fellow Chicken Little is security adviser Richard Clarke (Stephen Root), who exhibits mounting frustration as President Clinton's administration zippers problems and the Bush regime assume a maddeningly indifferent posture toward the threat.

President Clinton has an administration while Bush has a regime. No bias there.

[devolve]

[MNJohnnie]

I think they just cannot stand the fact that this one tells the whole truth about Bill Clinton's utter failure as President.

Curious what this butt clown though about Mikey Moores's Fahrenheit 911 monstrosity?

Initially scheduled for six hours, ABC is airing the project with limited interruption that will translate to about five commercial minutes per hour, or less than a third of the normal load.

I've heard that those that saw the pre-screening have copies, and will KNOW what has been left on the editing floor.
