Scrappy Doo is the world's most hated character ever

Cav and i even agree on "Enterprise" (sub title "the end of the line!")

It exudes everything i hate about bad science fiction; the bad science, evil aliens, melodramatic "wonder if they'll make it" crap.

they've come a long way, baby; from the 'New Generation" days, to the - 'i think i'd rather watch the commercials, and go for snacks during the show', level!

The concept of a pre-orginal Trek series was interesting, but they truly screwed it up with Enterprise.

Do you find that Raw is better than the other show? -- Did they not divide the 'wrestlers' up into two shows or something?

O, by the way; I'm completely unitiated: why does Enterprise count/not count? Has it a different cast?

I agree with you about Beavis and Butthead, and about Joey.. (can't you just see 'special guests' in the first episode, and a lot of canned laughter.?)

And-- what the hell is De Niro doing in R&B?

Yeah, Raw seems to be better although both shows have both lame and funny parts. Last week's wedding from hell was just funny, although it does say a lot about how the average WWE fan feels about women. I suppose a lot of the fans swallow the story lines hook, line and sinker. Anyway, it was weird, and involved some wrestling, a piano and bass violin playing a wrestler's theme music (odd) and fire, though there were no explosions. If I had known that explosions were an option, well, let's just say the RP-jes nuptials woulda been different.

Enterprise is the current Star Trek show, with a new cast. It's set closer in time to now, so a lot of the tech looks more plausible. But it does have a lame theme song.

B&B is lately lamented. And Joey, well, even TV Guide is saying that it's not looking good, and they're usually big-time cheerleaders for new shows when they like the cast (e. g. it's someone who's granted interviews in the past, which I think Matt LeBlanc and Drea DeMatteo have).

Helfino re DeNiro in R & B, but, man, eek, I'm running out of interjections to express how bizarre I think that is. Ah, here's the film: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0131704/

To be fair, i haven't watched a single show from start to finish; but the idea of going 'backward' never appealed to me in the first place; it has little to do with the basic attraction - a fascination with the future (not with the future's past!).

the problem with spinoffs, is that they are always 'downgraded' to appeal to an increasingly mass audience- bucks talking, as usual!

[and speaking of bad TV, and Canadian, in the same breath; how about Lexx!?? - out of Halifax/Germany]

Great, now I'm barfing at the Lexx reference, and the keyboard is getting messy. Somehow, PEI has built a huge tourist industry around Anne of Green Gables.

Who got married? I, unfortunately, know the average WWE fan. Well, actually, Mike Stone Cold wasn't an average man. He was from Liverpool, but pretended that he was from Swindon; he came to the pub, once, to get a job: and never left. He just stayed in the cellar. He wholeheartedly believed that wrestling was real. I'm not talking about suspension of disbelief; I'm talking about really believing that those who hated each other in wrestling, hated each other in real life; that the violence was real, too. He was originally called Kevin Keegan, (au football star from the seventies, who went into managing,) but changed his surname after his favourite wrestler, over whom he truly obsessed, and his name after some guy on a cops film that he liked. He also believed that natural disasters were made by (I think Soviet) satellites in the sky. He walked down the aisle with a near-braindead girl to the tune of Stone Cold's enterance. All round legend, that guy was.

Have you adjusted to Enterprise, particularly its new cast?

Drea DeMatteo-- I've never heard of her. What is her rôle going to be? And, what I found bizarre were: a) the awful pictures, and b) the fact that not only DeNiro, but Also Jason Alexander, or George from Seinfeld, was in it Neutral

Really?

And I fear ask, but; what is Lexx? Anything with two Xs in its name can never come to any good...

Jesus.

It seems to me like the fantasy of some lusting kid who likes trigonometry classes a bit too much...

I should say, again, check out the plots....it explains so much...

actually the best scene in the series should have been XXX; the shower scene;

The WWE wedding from hell was between Kane the monster and the lovely Lita ("but I'm really in love with Matt Hardy even though I'm carrying your child, Kane!"). So there was fighting between Kane and M. Hardy and also between Lita (the announcers: "Oh no, she's a pregnant woman. This is just not right!") and Toronto's own Trish Stratus (WWE's Internet Babe of the Year for I think 3 years until recently dethroned by Torrie Wilson, a taller but otherwise undistinguished member of the roster, far as I'm concerned).

Drea is supposed to be Joey's sister. She used to be on The Sopranos, but was killed off. I don't watch The Sopranos so I'm not up on the character she played there.

Tell (if you want to make him happy) Mike Stone Cold "what?"- that's one of Stone Cold Steve Austin's catch phrases. Mike will probably also appreciate "I'm gonna drink some beer!" and "Gimme a 'hell yeah'!"

The above is what sadists should pass around to hard-minded people who had wanted to kill themselves at 'Suicides Anonymous' meetings.

How did it last five years?!

silly you, the "plot" is to sell as much soap, and Rice Krispies, (and, oh yes, a cure for "yeast infection"!) in a one hour period as possible.

Are those guys.... JR and the kooky one whose name I forget, Jerry something... still announcing? I was forced to watch it quite a few times, out of civility, and I found the whole thing amusing enough, in a ludicrous, 'whose drugs propelled this' way. Did that Stone Cold guy not retire? He looked quite old, if I remember correctly. And why was this Trish Stratus woman involved in the wedding?

Hmmmm, I guess I'm a little behind the times. Just getting back to say that, Yes, I adored Rocky & Bullwinkle as a kid. I didn't even KNOW there was a movie of the same name. There were two particularly hilarious things on R&B -- Mr. Peabody and his boy ...can't remember his name... and the old lady with the dog named Precious.

On our way home from finding my daughter a (sob) apartment in the college town where she'll be living, I asked her about cartoons so as to answer here. She said that her two faves besides The Simpsons were The Family Guy and South Park.

As for myself -- I mostly like to watch (when I do watch TV) either the Independent Movie Channel or BBC-America which has a lot of dreck and repeats but also some amusing reality garden shows -- the best being Home Front in the Garden. I love that designer!
