And of course mom is a bigot. Because parents are always bigots. Ooops, I mean white-bread American parents. But, fortunately, she will become enlightened and realize that Muslims are actually better than Americans, and that white people generally suck balls, and she'll start to hate herself. It'll be a laff riot!

Seriously, I haven't seen it, but it sounds great. Although the Pakistani Muslim sounds a little bit more like Fez from That 70s Show than a real devout Madrasa educated Death to the Infidel Muslim. Hah! I kid, I kid.
Meh. It's all about "Chuck" @ 8

And this sort of sounds like a watered down version of CBC's "Little Mosque on the Prarie"

You know how everyone likes Fez from That 70's Show, right? Right? What if we make a show that's like...all Fez, all the time. ONLY, we don't have to get that Herve Villachez guy cause he'll ask for too much money, so instead we'll just get some unknown Pakistani guy, it doesn't matter how funny he is, as long as he's brown, talks with an accent and acts clueless it will be just as funny. Plus if we make him Muslim then we can also have a running moral in each story about how Muslims are really just human beings like us, and not all savage, suicide bombing murderers. Because for some reason, all us TV execs think this is some kind of fucking revelation that only we have figured out, and need to teach the retarded masses." - Aliens in America pitch meeting

My F5 key is begging for you to post the Heroes talkback. I want to discuss Maya and Miguel and how well they have transferred from childrens animation to the big time on Heroes. Thanks.

With that one famous Russian guy, Veejay Armitraj, and a few others...somebody surely remembers that stinkbomb show. It usually follwed SHE'S THE SHERIFF.

Aliens

is solid family entertainment. Listen, no one's going to mistake this for The Office or Always Sunny or Curb. It's not that type of comedy. But there's a real sweetness in the writing and in the characters. I think Adhir Kalyan, who plays Raja, the Muslim exchange student, is going to break out with this role. He's got a great sense of comic timing and his chemistry with Dan Byrd is very natural. The pilot and the second episode are directed by Luke Greenfield who also mixed heart and humor successfully in The Girl Next Door. I think this one's going to be a really pleasant surprise. I know it's been garnering controversy but you have to appreciate the low-key show for what it is. The major networks seem to have gone out of their way to make the fall season Bigger and Better than ever, but high-concept, big-budget shows like Journeyman and Bionic Woman and to a lesser extent, Chuck, don't always work well. This one is a throwback to the sitcoms I grew up watching. It relies a little too much on the fish out of water scenario but overall the show plays like the Wonder Years in post-9/11 America.

No way I am going to watch show about muslims unless they are killed in massive numbers.
You know that show 'How I met your mother'

Its actually pretty funny. And Neil Patrick Harris rocks the party from the early morn' to the broad daylight. Afterwards I'll watch that Aliens in America show...I'll let you know what I think in a few minutes.
So I just watched the show...

...and it was more of a drama than a sitcom...and it was really good - I liked it. A lot of the jokes were pretty risky, and it touches on a lot of topics you don't often see covered in a sitcom, so I'll keep watching. If it can continue to walk the right side of that line and explore the scenario without getting cheap, preachy, or offensive...this could be a real quality show...which means it will likely get cancelled.

so this means that her last series, the one with the southern stand-up comic, Doofy or Woodroy or whatever his/its name was, and the one before that, the Curse of Webber, are canceled? Because she was great as the other title character on Caroline and the Clitty.

maybe there is a market for a Kung Fu sitcom like the Burger King Spicy Chicken Crisp Chicken that advertises a sandwhich based on his own kind. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =WfJeOyzVrjY
