Has anyone been able to make it through an entire hour of

MSNBC's "The Cycle". (The new 3:00 pm show).

Painful and disjointed.
Or is it really good and I just don't get it ?

And, while I'm at it; What happened to the real Martin Bashir?
His attitude seemed to change the day he took over the Ratigan hour. Again, maybe it's just me and I need more naps.

When they passed the show to Martin, he congratulated them for making it to week two. Made me laugh.

It is awful! The guest appearance of Luke Russert for an "expert" report on Congressional inactivity was like the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I turned it off and sent an email to MSNBC telling them that I thought the new show was unwatchable.
