Well, it appears as if right wing "stars" are having a hard time making
excuses for their lack of representation in Hollywood...

The latest example of why Hollywood may be dominated by people not on the right tilting fringe is the horrible Fox vehicle for noted "conservatives" Patricia Heaton and Kelsey Grammer...

The show debuted strongly a week before the official start of the fall season, perhaps the Fox network knowing what a turkey they have on their hands wanted to ease the show into the regular schedule, earning a top twenty spot in the ratings...

The second week, the drop off was stunning...

From 18-57...

Maybe everybody does love Raymond and not too many really like Patricia Heaton...

And maybe Kelsey Grammer can't break loose of Fraizer...

It will be interesting to see just how long Fox sticks with this clunker, I know, I watched the first episode out of morbid curiosity...

1. ohmahgawd i saw the first half of the pilot and it sucked so hard it could have pulled
a golf ball though a garden hose. really awful dialog and there is zero, none, nada chemistry between Grammer and everybody hates Deborah, just unwatchable.

4. I could never watch 'Raymond' because of Heaton
She'd come in a scene and just ruin it. Never even knew she was a winger. She just gave off an aura. PU

5. She went to school one city over and I met her a couple of time
The only reason I remember is because her father was the sports editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer...

She was a typical prissy, spoiled little suburban girl back in the mid seventies...

And it looks as if she still is...
