So, here\u2019s the deal. For the foreseeable future, we as a viewing consumer organism will be abused by the Mega-Media Companies as lab rats. We will be subjected to Reality Programming, Game Show Programming, anything currently \u201cIn The Pipe\u201d Programming and an insufferable steaming pile of reruns.\u00a0All this so AMPTP can have a wonderful holiday and the WGA continues without a contract and on strike. All of this could have been averted if AMPTP had shows the slightest modicum of class. So Producers are sitting on half finished scripts they cannot do a thing with, Actors are choosing sides (and its gonna get ugly).<\/font><\/p>\n

Most importantly THE TRASH CANS HAVE BEEN REOPENED. Every single bad idea that has been greenlit\u00a0 <\/span>for 3 episodes and never aired has resurfaced and we are in for the SUCKFEST OF A LIFETIME.. It is going to be so hard to remain positive here about new things being aired or released so for the most part I am ONLY going to comment on those that are worth our collective time. I have taken the advice of a trusted clergyman, from now on referred to only as The X-Man, who has advised me that this time of Media Goat Droppings is a wonderful time to reconnect with my family (When did I have that third kid, anyway?), spend more time with my wife (wow, was she always that hot??? I really do need to spend more time with my head out of the tube) and work for the betterment of mankind, so NO MORE CYLONS! The X-Man then went on to tell me it was almost Christmas and thinking back on it, I have passed over\u00a0 <\/span>numerous claymation specials over the past few weeks.<\/font><\/p>\n
