***Pathetic TV Show, Mediocre "Stars", Our Heros Deserve Better***
Stardate: 0109.21

Posted on 09/21/2001 6:54:46 PM PDT by The Wizard

And Liza with a z sounds drunk.....

What a night of disasters for TV

The first 30 minutes of the "heros" special was so bad, the acts so lame, no hits, no nothing......what a wasted opportunity.......

I couldn't take it any longer......

It seems that if the studio ain't in Nashville, the sound will be crap.......

The stars, on phones through the hour I could stand with no sound on, were never spoken to, and they were the only points of interest I could find.....all these stars and we're watching a bunch of absolutely mediocre performances by past icons who weren't even smart enought to play their hits......

I knew it was going to be a bust when Springstein DIDN'T play the only appropriate song he has, Born In the USA, and instead sang some nonesense about rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up and maybe another word or two.......

Hollywood, or whoever is going to take the fall for this absolute failure, should, IMHO get out of the business.

"can you say root canal"

That's probably what it's like for the so-called 'talent'. You know they all hate Bush, and they're probably having trouble working up any enthusiasm at all.

I hate to be so cynical, but they are probably only doing this to make themselves look good. I'm with Bill O'Reilly. He said if people like Paul Newman and Susan Serandon do something, he tends to believe their sincerity because they do stuff all the time for their 'causes' (misguided though they may be). When these yahoos get together, it has to be because they know 85% of the people support the President and they had better get on board.

I wish they would put their names on the screen somewhere...

Was that Debbie Gibson singing and playing the piano? I know she's a Long Island native, but I'm surprised she got a spot on this show.

Ask Jack if he still thinks Castro is a genius.

Sorry for the double post, Julia Roberts just came on, and it was a knee jerk reaction to her. Her personal comments were not connected. Peace... God is good... ramble, ramble, we all know what she thinks of our President.

Let me try to understand whats being discussed here. 6000 americans were murdered and a group of americans, who you differ with politically, are trying to raise money for the victims of this act of war and your making fun of them. Who is being unamerican here? I am more conservative than most people and I have to say that this post sucks big-time.

I just caught that stupid Julia Roberts moron yammering about "out flag was still there" in her actressy, verge-of-tears voice. Commie b!tch.

(Excuse me. I feel better now.)

"Julia Roberts" can be found in the dictionary somewhere between "Idiot" and "Pretentious".

Got the Boy Scout thing right! Thought as I have been told, not all United Ways have succumbed to the pressures of the queers. Ooops, I meant to say bi-sexual human beings. Not!

Unfortunately, they are dead. and with them goes an era of Hollywood which will never come again.


HEY JULIA ROBERTS, DO YOU STILL THINK BUSH IS A "REPUGNANT REPUBLICAN REPTILE?"

Whenever I hear about JFK, I always remember what my dad (8 war patrols, 4 on the Nautilus SS-168 & 4 on Bashaw SS-241) said about the president:

"How the f--k do you get run over by a destroyer? They were either asleep or drunk. If my skipper had done that, he would have been court martialed. But an ambassador's son, he gets a medal."

Rest in peace Pop

Just a plug for ExxonMobil (since they are a big bad oil company) - when an employee contributes to one of the charities for the New York attack - they match it times 3. $100 donation from an employee would mean they added $300 more.

Check out another thread on this subject "Why are Movie Stars...." - My husband flipped over to it a couple times during FOX News breaks - from the little we've seen, it's getting progressively worse. They must be aiming this toward the younger people who never watch the news and do all the "peace" rallies.

How about Paul Simon doing "Bridge Over Troubled Water"? That was the redeeming factor of an otherwise depressing show.
