Says you.  But you do know what they say about opinions, yes?

OK, I need to add to my list:
 
Monster House
Faulty Towers
So You Think You Can Dance
The Fairly Oddparents
The Monkees
 
And last, but by no means ever least:  American Bandstand

Laugh-In,

Sleazybutterfly,
Do you really remember this show? I believe it was cancelled in the early 70's. Of course, that is what re-runs are for. I seem to forget about those <s>
I was both shocked and mildly amused when Richard Nixon guest starred on it.
 
Goodnight Dick.

You are kidding right? This charactor is the epitome of abusive husbands. Archie Bunker was mirrored from Ralph Cramden. "To the moon, Alice" I wanted to shove a broomstick up this dudes ass.
But, YFTSINMFTS <s>

Rock Star: Hasbeen is the most apt title I've heard yet.  Not like INXS weren't hasbeens themselves, but at least they had a back catalog of material that had proven successful and would help generate interest and ticket sales.. what does Supernova have.. no legitimate back material, only three so-so over-the-hill rockers, largely from sad eighties hair metal bands..

as for Brooke Burke, yes she is good looking, but there are many better, and as a host of the show, like all these shows, she is almost but not as annoying as Ryan Seacrest.. and no amount of t&a will ever make up for that..

the only real quality thing about the show is the performers, a handful of which are in my opinion too good for Supernova.  the sad part is that one of them will have their career ruined joining this group and the others will be written off as also-rans.

and as for opinions.. like they say, "everyone is entitled to their opinion."  but as my father, a highly educated philoshphy professor and administrator, used to be fond of adding, "but that doesn't make them right."

also like So You Think You Can Dance, Dancing with the Stars, and both Canadian and American Idol.  though I prefer to tape them and watch the performances, and critiques and zip through the remaining and infinitely horrible drama that makes up the rest of these shows..

sorry if My "opinions" offend anyone, but I am entitled and I just may be wrong, however unlikely that may be...
