Oh yeah I've seen that. "Documentaries" like that have basically replaced the old circus freak shows. On the one hand, some of these people are prevented from making a living because of their condition and therefore benefit from the attention shows like this bring. At the same time it's pretty...

Being occasionally disturbing is about the only thing the two sides have in common, hehe. They feed into our social issues rather than help, IMO. But yeah I think if we could at least get the economy back on track other things could start falling into place.

That I can't say. Though I actually think Romney's attempt at a response ended up looking pretty inept and awkward, lol. Either way, I know I won't be happy with who wins so yeah, this is entertaining for me but not much else. :)

Strengthening his base is what he's hoping for. He's concerned that the people who voted for him last time might stay home this time due to being disappointed with his first term. So now's a great time for him to claim to have some big revelation like this. He obviously always supported gay...

I wish, that would be nice, lol. ::shrugs:: :halo:

That's kinda what I'm talking about. TV shows won't always make the best choices for the characters. When that happens I don't think fans necessarily need to be beholden to them.

I agree. But for me, there's none that does, lol.

I think the good sequels are rare exceptions to the rule. Welcome exceptions sure, but not in any way normal, lol. :)

I just don't take any of these guys seriously when it comes to having stances. They blow with the wind.

Yeah I've definitely encountered that kind of thing, lol. I mean I can see objecting to someone being out of character and all. It's when fans pull the "it wasn't filmed therefore it's not canon" card that I get slightly frustrated, lol. Sure an idea may have made it to screen but that doesn't...

I'm offended that both shows exist frankly, lol.

I know we often talk about how, um, loose Muppet canon can be, lol. But I was wondering just in general, for any franchise, should fans be so concerned about the canon of story lines, etc., or can we get too bogged down in these things and lose the big picture? For instance I was recently...

As newsmanfan said, it's really only in fairly recent history that we as a culture have tried to make marriage a moralistic concept. Since the beginning of time marriage has been about buying and selling females and ensuring they "obey" their husband. The white dress, the veil, the name changes...

Except for when simply drawing a picture can get you death threats. I applaud South Park for actually being one of the few shows on TV that honestly will lampoon every religion. And get a great deal of flak for the crime of being fair.

Good for them, sort of takes me back to the old days when the Disney Channel stood for something. :) As for Obama, he wants votes. Period. I don't look to politicians of either party for truth. ;)

The same time Scientologists do. ;)

How true that is, if it bleeds it leads. :p

"Curse Sir Walter Raleigh!" --John Lennon ;)

Or if they do watch it, be able to separate it from real life. :)

I know you definitely have good intentions. The issue I have is just because a program is rated R doesn't mean it's bad or corrupting. That's taking some of the responsibility away from the child and saying they're helpless against the evil brainwashing tube in the corner of the Family Room. If...
