In an ideal world, the skill set of getting elected and the skill set of administering a government would be the same, like having things that taste good being good for you.

I'm waiting for Sims to lose it like Todd did awhile back. And now Todd is King Todd!

…frequent nudity…

But doesn't all that angering give you, I dunno, better muscle tone or something?

Eh, judge me if you want, but I could use a little more…

They could be Co-Presidents. Like the election ended in a tie, and congress was too gridlocked to pick someone, so they decided to call it a draw and both Bills had desks next to each other and were always squabbling. Ben Kingsley and F Murray Abraham would play the VPs.

Nooo!!!! Up All Night was *this* close to the reboot that would save  it (hint: mob doctor character).

Wasn't it that show about the president's fat son that no one liked?

I'd sort of thought Whitney had already been canceled. But then I'd remember that she had two shows and then I'd get distracted and think about something else.

Communist.

Well, the problem is that people still watch network TV, and that's where most of the ad money for campaigns goes. But the more the TV audience fragments, the less bang for the buck the unlimited corporate spending will be, and eventually the bean-counters will say "stop". Not out of any kind of goodness or integrity,…

If they aren't in the news, people forget they exist. And that means no more cash until the next election is close, and when that happens, there's a tiny chance people might pay attention to what you're actually saying. So you gotta keep the faucet running however you can.

But large corporations don't want this, so I don't get it. Did the latest check bounce?

You can and you will!

Wll, they didn't call themselves "conservatives", which could mean many things, but "compassionate conservatives" which is a worn-out code word for "we'll vote to fuck the poor and minorities into paste, but say we feel badly about it when challenged in public".

I think a lot of people underestimate how much attention their own kids pay to them, and how aware they are when their parents are angry and fighting all the time. They seem to think they have that contained, and they can "present" a good front to their kids and keep them naive. It never, ever works, and if the…

Yes, those videogame adaptions have lit the world on fire. Resident Evil. Doom. Bloodrayne. Tomb Raider. Silent Hill. I mean, I imagine they make (well, most of) their money back in the International market as that seems less descriminating, but where's the hits?

Blade had vampires and angry blade dudes with swords; I doubt a majority of the audience connected it to a comic book at all.

I know this is… crazy… but if a proeprty is so obscure that, well, no one knows it, why not just make a new one? I mean, it's already succeeded in failing to make any impact once; a brand-new property hasn't failed yet. It can't be that hard to mix some boob, robots (maybe some robot boobs, since why not) and…

No you weren't.
