She CAN surely do better than TROJJ.  I mean, assuming that the people
who post here are fans of GG, we've all seen that with our own eyes or
heard that with our own ears.

OK... Fox made a mistake by scheduling it on Friday night.  Point
conceded... THAT said, Fox's even BIGGER mistake, IMNSHO, was thinking
that they had their own version of GG on their network, which everyone
knew TROJJ wasn't... from the first second of the show.

Personally, I don't think you can find fault with Parker Posey in this
case.  I like her very, very much, and have since her daytime soap
days on AS THE WORLD TURNS, when she played a character named Tess
Shelby.
