Ally's History

[smith288]

Whenever I did watch the show (rarely), I enjoyed Fish...he was hilarrious and could probably have a spin off of his view of the world.

[pabianice]

Ally who?

[Phantom Lord]

Fish was the only good thing about the show.

My wife liked the show. I called it Ally McBoring.

[Destructor]

Cheer up ladies. At least you still have your stupid Harlequin Romance novels.

Now if you want to talk about a tragedy- what about the X-Files going away?

[southern rock]

I enjoyed Fish.

Abe Vagoda was on Ally McBeal??

[mconder]

Ally, you were truly anoying...I won't be missing you.

[Lanman]

[Aim small miss small]

To me she always looked liked she needed a sandwich.

[KarlInOhio]

It's been dead for at least three years. They just finally gave it last rites and unplugged the life support on Sunday.

[AppyPappy]

I think it's a TV show

[TigerTale]

Now if you want to talk about a tragedy- what about the X-Files going away?

I have decided I was disappointed with the X-Files series finale.

[Destructor]

"It's been dead for at least three years. They just finally gave it last rites and unplugged the life support on Sunday."

True. Even I have to admit it.

[Tony in Hawaii]

I think Peter McNicol was the biggest talent on that show.

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

You know, the promos for this show were enough to make me never want to watch a single episode. I never did. I know that doesn't give me any particular justification for criticizing it, but having read the linked article, I think my liberal radar saved me once again. Looks like I missed nothing.

One of the funniest things I ever saw was during the height of the "Ally McBeal has anorexia" news stories.

Fox stuck the actress who played her in a prime seat at the World Series. They would cut to her constantly, and everytime she'd be shoving some other food in her mouth, in an attempt to let us all know she had a healthy appetite.

She was probably barfing during commercials.

[billbears]

Disappointed? That had to be the worst ending that the writers could have imagined. Hey kids, the world's going to end in 10 years, there's nothing you can do about it, the whole national government is chasing you, let's take a nap!! Lame, lame, lame

[reformed_democrat]

Was it on cable?

[chiefqc]

Or a dog bone.

[GOP_1900AD]

Good riddance to the ultimate cess pit of "normalization" base lined to degeneracy. Hopefully a sign of more to come. I'm mad as heck and I'm not gonna take it any more!
