SteveZilla Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I didn't say those first three were an exhaustive list. "Do nothing" can also be an alternative.

SatinKitty Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER That is just my opinion. I used to catch some of it because it came on before the Dark Shadows reruns I watched and I thought Mary Hartman was very strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER (Mary Hartman)^2 came out while I was an undergrad. I had gone off TV a couple years before it started, so I an proudly say I've never seen a single episode of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER The problem with TV satire is that it gets watched by people whose grip on the concept of satire is weak, so it gets interpreted as being serious or laudable. And then it gets taken as a role model or example of how one should look/behave/etc., when exactly the opposite was intended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
