4. the small clips I've seen look pretty good, and most importantly
realistic. I'm hoping that it will wake up some of the american zombies who only want their american idol.

2. It might not be what you think...he is a liberal and probably put his
own slant on it...and why FX and not cbs,nbc or abc, maybe there is a reason.

8. Yes faux owns it, but they have had some liberal programs...They
had that Oil thing the other night. I think once in a while something slips through, especially if it makes money.

7. From the Hollywood Reporter--read it and weep

'Over There' is here as series for FX, Bochco

..."Over There" is an ensemble drama that will explore the lives of a select group of Army soldiers in combat as well as the families they left behind.

...FX president of entertainment John Landgraf...envisions "Over There" not being pro- or anti-war but admitted that the show won't please everyone. "There's likely to be some controversy because the war is such a partisan football from both sides," he said.


And here's the promo. Young male hottie thrust into role of great white father? Check. Bespectacled nerd boy? Check. Slangin' brother man? Check, yo. Lonely civilian desparate housewife? Check. Hispanic female? Two for the price of one. Subliminal recruitment tool targeted towards the Britney Spears generation? Of course. Hill Street Blues meets Baywatch on the set of The Curse Of The Mummy...I've got battle fatigue already.

:puke:
