The lyrics are pretty bad, dude. |
Yeah....I just listened to it...I guess they are. I'm just tired of everything that's said and done nowadays being on an ethical meter. As a society today, we are like peaches that bruise easily.

Is it only a matter of time before Churchill disassociates itself from My Old Kentucky Home and Stephen Foster?

No interest in anything by today's so-called comedians, nor anything on ABC.
I'll watch the Amazing Race.

I heard on the radio that they (All in Family and Jeffersons) are previously broadcasted scripts that are just being remade with modern actors.

I loved the two shows so would like to check them out but expectations are low. Wanda Sykes as Weezy is bad casting. The jabs at right wingers will be fierce while left wing jabs will be weak or really not on point at all.

Sorry but it missed the mark... you can't redo a classic using lesser talent and chicken shit PCing the dialog to boot.
As Archie would of said... Do it or Don't, But get out of my chair you Meathead.
Did not chuckle once.
