TV, TV, TV


WHOLE LOTTA SHAKE-OUT GOIN' ON


Some of the Fall TV seasons duds are up for review. As usual, some good shows will be dropped, and some bad shows will be retained, thanks to those totally out-of-it ratings. I didn't find much worth watching on broadcast network TV this season. But there were a few shows that weren't too horrible, stuff for the kiddies, mostly. That baseball show, "Clubhouse," was an OK juvenile, but it's in trouble. Likewise teen mystery "Veronica Mars." Mel Gibson's somewhat autobiographical sitcom, "Complete Savages," is so bad it'll probly last forever. The awfully pretentious "Jack & Bobby" won't make it to assassination day. That's what they get for making Bobby the Prez, and a REPUBLICAN! Clueless is as clueless does.


"Stargate Atlantis,"
turned out to be amusing, in the manner of its' predecessor, "Stargate SGI," which is still quite watchable, even after some major, or rather, general changes were made. The special effects are good, the stories are OK, and there's a light-heartedness that's refreshing in a Sci-Fi show. I like 'em.

They're on CABLE, of course, where all the good stuff keeps showing up. (At least, until the Repukes start regulating that, too.) Like John Stewart on "The Daily Show," and the outrageous "Dave Chappelle Show," both on Comedy Central. And the raw, funny and moving firehouse dramedy "Rescue Me," which joins the evil cop show "The Shield," and the scary plastic-surgery soap opera "Nip, Tuck" on the FX Network. "Monk" is still on USA, but it's new season hasn't started yet. And they've fired his nurse, so, could be shark-time. We'll viddy. Lifetime has some new shows, too. But, they're for girls, right? Not sure if my TV is allowed to get girl-networks. At least I don't have to watch Oprah, or Dr. Phil...


A&E, BRAVO, TNT and SPIKE have all gone down the tubes, so don't watch them, OK? I'll know if you do.

IF


COUP-COUP-A-CHOO


What will we do if Bush cheats, postpones, or cancels the next election?


Without control of the government, the legislature, the courts, the police or the military, options are limited. A permanent general strike? Block all interstates, rail nexuses, ports & airports? Jam the phone, cable & internet lines? Civil disobedience on a massive scale? Even non-violent protest may excuse Bushite martial law.


Better start thinking about this, NOW. Better start organizing now. Before they shut down the 'Net. Better start warning them against another coup, and calling on the powers that be to nip it in the bud.There are those in the military & police forces who take seriously their oath to defend the Constitution. Still.


Kerry MUST fight all the way, and not do a Gore. (If Clinton had Federalized the FLA Guard, he could have forced a full recount, over the Supremes' heads.) Keep in mind, the rednecks have all the guns. Could be the end of America, as we know it. It COULD happen here.


What will YOU do?
