There is no God.

I thought it was Clinton who was amazed by the scanner, or was that a ATM machine he didn't know how to use?

You know what would be great - take Ted Kennedy or Hillary and move them to a nice rural setting, say Elohim City or somewhere in northern Idaho.

The networks need to take a lesson from PBS when it comes to reality shows. What was the name of it -- Frontier House? That was good reality TV.

The Bush scanner story is an urban legend. He was examining a new type of scanner at a convention that had not been released yet. It could scan around corners, and Bush remarked he'd never seen that. Which was logical, since that was a prototype.

Second, if you took everyone's money and possessions away, eventually, most of the people that made it on their own would wind up back at the top.

What gets me is, not just the desecration of so many wonderful classic tv series, but how the tv networks are constantly ripping each other off. It used to be tv talk shows. Now we're getting flooded with "reality" tv series.

TV Exec: "Hey, I got an idea! Let's rip off their idea and cash in on it!"

Havent they got an original idea between all of them?

Thank God for cable tv so that one can watch the real classics.

Anybody see the Max Baer interview on FOX News last night? He suggested doing this. He's also made a fortune on Beverly Hillbillies spinoffs.

He said "Maybe Jethro wasn't so dumb after all."

I have a reality show idea...

Have our congressmen/women live under the laws they create.

Wouldn't that be a hoot!

the show will take a rich, upper-class family or individual -- possibly a celebrity -- and move them from a big city to a much more spartan existence, most likely in the South.

As if the south were somehow devoid of wealthy, obnoxious socialites. Yeah, right.

Look out! Its likely to be more like Hooterville meets Jerry Springer. Arnold the pig is probably going to be gay.

For this they canceled Dark Angel, Futurama, X-Files, Titus, etc.

Way to go, Fox...you morons.

Why watch the re-make when you can see the original on Nick at Night?
