2. There's an easy solution...
Don't turn on the TV.

3. It was totally unreasonable of me, I know
to expect to get some news on a news station. What was I thinking?

4. You were rushing home to watch Prison Dramas?
You do realize this is Friday night... the beginning of the MSNBC weekend drought, in terms of anything watchable...

8. 1. Where did I say I was rushing home?
2. TRMS (with or without Rachel) normally airs M-F followed by Lockup which, frankly holds about as much interest for me as the wedding. Forgive me for not fawning all over the royals, endless apologies and all that.

16. No Shit.
What is up with that? Americans spend all week in shitty cubicles terrified of being laid off or outsourced, so they can come home and watch ... prison?

Hmmm. Maybe the appeal is- compared to that, foreclosure doesn't look so bad? :shrug:

17. I know. I'm in Canada and we have an election right now. They kept putting wedding specials on when
the regular news shows should be on.
