my time on terra firma

It's a time to be thankful for the things that I have rather than complain about the things that I don't! With that being said...I'm thankful that WE HAVE A NEW PRESIDENT!!! Next year, photos like this will be a thing of the past. Also, it's a time to send our prayers out to those who don't have it so good. Like our troops (and innocent civilians) in Iraq and Afghanistan. Also, to our troops in S. Korea and Germany. Also, let us keep the victims of this recent terrorist attack in India in our thoughts and prayers as well. Have a happy and reflective Thanksgiving!

I concur! The title alone had me at hello. Dirty. Sexy. Money. After the title the characters were like a freaking train wreck in slo-mo. And now, they're axing it. Well, at least I'm not alone. My friend is a huge "Pushing Daisies" fan. Gotta love American television.

Such a shame that they axe this and keep crap like Greys Anatomy and Private Practice on the air.

Fifty-Seven. That's the number for now. Honestly, I thought this was a new trend ("The Office", "Worst Week Ever", "Coupling"... shudder ); boy was I wrong. I guess it's all about perception, here I thought that "All in the Family" and "Three's Company" were as American as apple pie. They're actually as American as fish and chips! Then again, they were both solid shows (the latter is debatable) that spawned spin-offs like "Three's a Crowd" and "The Jeffersons"; insofar as pop culture and marketability, those shows were hits. I don't mind Steve Carrell in "the Office", but it reminds me way too much of the originally; Ricky Gervais will always be the boss from hell. Still, it's not a bad translation. Of course, for every "Sanford & Son", there's a "Coupling". Shudder... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:American_television_series_based_on_Bri...

February 2009's issues of Robin , Nightwing and Birds of Prey - all of which have run for over a decade - will be their last, DC confirmed yesterday.
