Well, for your sake, I hope God agrees with you.


Comedians do jokes on things that toe the line because they are issues that need to be addressed and aren't normally done so over dinner. Think about it. Think about the things that comedians say that they'd NEVER get away with if they were just walking down the street. They don't make stereotypes, they laugh at them. It's a way to tip the scale at sterotypes to see how silly they really are.

You are taking this show (that hasn't aired yet) WAY to seriously MA.

Me too. The thing that I believe in most is freedom for adults to make their own choices. I thought that the Jerry Springer show, for instance, was totally disgusting, and playing to the lowest common denominator in our society. I never would dream of writing to the producers about it. I voted with my remote control.

Bella Dea and Phoenix,

I understand and appreciate what you are both saying. It may seem to you that I am taking it way too seriously. I think many aren't taking it seriously enough. Guess we just have to agree to disagree.

I hope that you both have the Happiest of New Years! I have been blessed by both of you this year.

Just curious, did that episode offend you as a Jew?

Screw all the christian hand-wringing and sour-pussed complaints--the germane question is whether or not the program is entertaining.

Yeah, teevee sucks . . . christians, however, are a source of endless hilarity, not the least of the reasons for which being their near frantic desire to demonstrate their ignorance and bigotry . . .

Time will tell....although considering the garbage most people these days pass off as quality entertainment it really won't mean anything.

Hello Mr. Setanta!http://web4.ehost-services.com/el2ton1/cheekkiss.gif How was your holiday, sir? I hope it was wonderful for you. Laughing

I am sure Mr. Setanta, you would probably find this show very entertaining, assuming, of course, it is what the original poster says it is. :wink:

Have a great day Mr. Setanta!http://web4.ehost-services.com/el2ton1/heart.gif

mother angel you need to read my "sarcasm" thread, we are currently trying to upgrade the inane juvenile level of the sarcasm on a2k and you are not cooperating. I am sure, with your cooperation mother angel we could raise the quality of sarcasm to at least pre-adolescent.

I was DEEPLY offended by the "Virgin" episode.


I was a virgin once...ok, I converted, but I still care about virgins!

Yer joke is gonna fall flat there, Miss Wabbit . . . we call the initial episode a pilot, not a virgin . . . good joke, though . . . i finally took the plunge and began reading Daniel Deronda--thought it was gonna be a turgid buzz-kill, and then was relieved when typical Victorian melodramatic hilarity ensued with the introduction of the suicidal Mirah . . .

Actually, dys, I wasn't being sarcastic. I do hope Mr. Setanta had a wonderful holiday.

And I do believe he would find that show entertaining.

And I do hope he has a wonderful day today.
