Dear NBC
Look, NBC, I know you’re sore about the destruction of Must See TV. And I can only imagine the pain you feel at having lost Thursday nights. E.R., your erstwhile drama flagship, is on its last legs. Will & Grace is past its prime.
But please don’t sacrifice My Name Is Earl in order to try and reclaim lands you’ve lost. Those days are over. Don’t kill a good show in a futile attempt to regain past glory.
Your pal,
Steve

Will and Grace had a prime?

I say focus on Tuesday. Leave The Office and Earl alone to do their thing. And bring back Scrubs. That’s 3 shows I would watch back to back to back. That’s gotta count for something!

The Office was so funny this week, with the Darth Sidious scene. “Quiet, you!”

I agree with gabby. I can’t believe that article didn’t mention Scrubs once. NBC has three solid comedies, but one is on hold.

Well, Susan, you know I can’t disagree with you! You know my love of Jim is strong & true, but my joy at watching Dwight make an idiot of himself? Aaahhh, I have no words. The hubby & I still quote the scene where the girl comes to sell purses and Dwight comments on her breasts because “the Schrute’s are thirsty babies”. Cracks us up.

If NBC can’t handle “Scrubs” Properly, they don’t have the skills to handle any comedy properly.
I mean, Scrubs is amazingly good, and NBC doesn’t even run it at the start of the season??? What the hell?
