You have to be the biggest idiot on all of Usenet. And, having read some
of
your more "clever" posts in other groups, I still believe it to be true.
How can you possibly hate a show that hasn't even been *written* yet?!?!
If
you watch the Pilot (which, I know you won't), and then dislike it fine,
but
it's only in concept stage. Get a grip, please.
