CNN's list. No particular order.

I know they already have that asshole's The Wire on it, but Homicide: Life On The Street was a much more superior cop show than The Shield.

Ed Anger

My dad is pissed off at the cancellation of Vegas on CBS. I mean PISSED OFF.
Stay Alive...Let the Man Drive

CountDeMoney

That show actually had some moments.  Dennis Quaid just can't win in life.  :(

Ed Anger

He's also annoyed at the cancellation of Golden Boy. The show title gives me the giggles.

No, I think having Duckie's levity is good - I think he'd just work better as a platonic sidekick.

If you make Duckie a platonic sidekick then the movie becomes just another movie about trying to fit into an out group.  Duckie's feelings make a story of class betrayal.  Like Jungle Fever.

Wasn't the guy she went for more the high school heart throb type? Hard to see picking him over the twerpy friend as class betrayal.

:huh: Have you seen the movie?  Molly and Ducky belong to the working class uncool caste and the other dude belongs to the rich cool caste.  That's the whole point of the movie.

Molly Ringwold

Hated her then and now.

Now Ally Sheedy........ :perv:

She may have been working class, but she was still hot. Besides, I don't think Cryer passed the height test.

Molly's a singer now. I use that term loosely.

Here she is doing "Don't You Forget About Me."

My pops is pissed over both of those cancellations as well.  He's notorious for liking shows that get axed though.

The Road Warrior still has a 100% on RT and

Mad Max a 95%
