I got a thing from Nielsen in the mail saying they want me to be one of those peeps that helps them generate the TV ratings. Should I do it?

Only if you never watch reality TV.

Watch only crappy Sci-Fi made-for-TV specials. Claim you're a widowed African-American grandmother who lives alone.

Hell yes, how else can you battle against the avalanche of crap on TV?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Any requests? I'll program my TV to watch all kinds of shit when I'm not home. Expect a ratings jump for all Buckeye football games and old Firefly reruns.  :P

Yeah, record as many episodes of Family Guy in syndication.  Three hours over the course of the evening isn't enough for me.

Watch Firefly religiously, we will get it back on the screens!

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Never watch any of the big 4 unless it's football.

I was happy when they brought it back after being canceled. Now, I wish Seth MacFarland would drop dead.

It didn't really matter to me.  Sundays are for football, not animation.
