When they moved it from Wednesday(?) to Saturday, I should have taken that as a sign to move on. Instead I watched it On Demand.<br /><br />Someone mentioned The T.O. Show which reminded me: did anyone watch The Superstars? Did you find yourself (gulp) rooting for T.O.?<br /><br />And not at all recent but in the spirit of taking one for the team. If you've managed to avoid Don't Say a Word w/ Michael Douglas and Brittany Murphy and you see it coming in the program guide, put down the remote, turn around, and run. The first time Brittany's character comes on screen, I said if this is the answer I'm gonna be really mad. 2 hours later when it turned out I was right, I had to go buy a new remote.Sam Sevrnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-80928824197049594352009-08-18T18:06:42.963-04:002009-08-18T18:06:42.963-04:00@ other michael.
