Shameless. Utterly Shameless...

Fox had a nasty little surprise in store for baseball fans tuning in to see game four of the World Series .

Rain Delay=Let's show re-runs of The War at Home.

Their reasoning: We have a captive audience. The rain could let up at any time, so people have to stick around to make sure they don't miss a single pitch. We'll show them The War at Home and they'll have no choice but to watch, laugh, and fall in love with our comedic tour de force.

For shame, Fox.

For shame.

May your herpes grow boils.

Sad news. I accidentally taped over two un-critiqued episodes of The War at Home with episodes of The Office. Interestingly enough, when the intelligent and witty plots and dialogue of The Office met the stale, tired and cliched plots and dialogue of The War at Home, the casing melted and the tape itself was sucked into an extra-dimensional vortex.

This was not covered in my VCR's warranty, where the fine print specificallys says: Taping The War at Home automatically voids any warranty and can be used against you in a court of law.

Interestingly enough, segments of tape where The War at Home was taped over by My Name is Earl were unaffected.
