Ligh-en up Sam! It's not the Learning Channel
and it's not the History
Channel. It's Turner, and they just colorized history a little. Partly
to keep the audience interested and partly to squeeze it all into 2 hours.
I enjoyed all of the scenes that take place in Albuquerque. (MITS, the
hookers, Bill getting arrested). :)
You just have to remember that not everyone on this list lives here in
California. In other places it not considered polite to tell people what
they can't think, what they can't say. :)
Ok, obviously everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but I would expect
everyone here to know the difference between fact and outright bullshit
(not to mention bad acting, terrible writing, etc). If anyone here were
to express a favorable opinion of that show then I'd be highly skeptical
of that person's ownership of a brain.
So being that its a long shot anyone would actually say they liked that
atrocity, I felt safe in making an outlandish threat to verbally assault
with prejudice anyone who expressed such a liking. But don't think I
won't do it either.
The fact remains, this show was terrible, and I could not adequately
express in words the utter contempt I felt for it, so I spewed. It was
too much to hold in.
