3. Has anyone seen any kind of ratings on this show?
i saw 10 minutes of the first episode and i think eating lead paint would be more enjoyable.

4. WHY?
It totally blows chunks. Watching paint dry is FAR more entertaining.

5. Reminds me of the Germans' attempt to duplicate the "funniest joke" (Monty Python bit):
(it comes late in the sketch)

7. very weak and racist
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd8cRvZZv44

This is a new clip from the show, the joke is suppose to be the link of the terrorists and the journos cant figure out what the link is?

The canned laughter is shocking!

The joke is they all have middle eastern sounding names and they dont eat pork, but they cant figure out what the link?

Its very stereotypical and racist

9. The same reason they make bulk purchases of "conservative"
hit books - to lend legitimacy to their mouth-pieces.

12. Then refer back to it often to show how they can't compete with
the "liberal" media.

Wait, wait, is that the theme to The Twilight Zone I hear playing in the background. :D
