Atrocious - but aren't you just simply amazed that it hasn't happened sooner?

[The Blitherer]

You know what? Nobody watches that show, so why bring attention to it?

[L98Fiero]

"Does nobody think this is wrong?" Scott asked when he talked with WND about the situation. "Does nobody go, 'Now, wait a minute?'"

Nobody with a life.

[NYer]

In a sex saturated society, nothing is sacred anymore, not even Christmas carols.

I think it's time for a Christian anti-defamation league.

Pretty tame compared to some of the versions we used to sing on the playground in grade school.

[EarthBound]

This is kinda silly. I'm not denying that Christianity is always taking hits, especially from TV, but kids do stuff like this all the time. I'm sure I wasn't the only one singing "Jingle bells, Batman Smells","Deck the Halls with Gasoline",and of course, "Joy to the World, the Teacher's Dead".

The difference is that one can always turn off the TV and deny them the advertising dollars, the best way to handle this.

[L98Fiero]

Thank you. Quite tame.

Disgusting and downright pathetic!

[albie]

Why don't do one to the tune of "Draidle, Draidle, Draidle"? (like "I'm getting laidle, laidle, laidled" Or "O Kwanzaa"? (perhaps "O is for Orgasmaa")

[Guenevere]

I feel sorry for you if you can't understand how offensive this is.

[RexBeach]

Hey, don't worry about Charlie. Most likely, he'll end up in Hell where he can swap clever lyrics with other meatheads.

[dfwgator]

Our versions were pretty violent, to say the least.

[N. Theknow]

I usually refer to the show as "Two and a Half-Ass."

[TheBigB]

I watched the ep and laughed out loud at the song. :)

And guest star Jessica Collins....mmmmmmboy!

[hilaryrhymeswithrich]

I watch the show on a regular basis and find it hysterical...and the song had me laughing out loud. I certainly don't turn to prime time tv for my religion or my politics...I turn to it to laugh, on increasingly rare occasion.

[Sloth]

Big freaking deal. A show that nobody watches makes a rather tame crude joke and these people act like it's never happened before.

"Hey, don't worry about Charlie. Most likely, he'll end up in Hell where he can swap clever lyrics with other meatheads".


...very true. I guess we really should allow him as much fun as possible for his precious remaining years on earth. First thing Charlie's gonna see when he kicks is a sign that says "ABANDON HOPE ALL YE WHO ENTERS HERE"

[GSlob]

Well, the lyrics could be improved upon, I guess. The tradition of ribald songs goes back for at least 4 millenia [and probably further in the past than that]. So there's a big database to choose from.

[TheBigB]

I find the ones who say "nobody watches it" funny...it's the 13th highest-rated show for the season, averaging over 11 million viewers per week. (That's according to Nielsen, of course.)
