New Adventures of Queen Victoria by Pab Sungenis for March 22, 2011

Never seen it.

You can’t script comedy, it has to just happen.

I’ve not seen this sitcom, but the whole idea behind it doesn’t sound the least bit amusing. Her Maj is right.

Their going have to re-do bit of that show to make Victoria fit in.

It’s not that it is funny, it’s that Charlie Sheen plays himself.

Too nasty for me……………………….

TV, the teacher of moral values to my children

Why is it these shows are so popular, and yet I can never find anyone who watches them?

It really isn’t a good show. I can’t understand how it’s so popular. Good shows like Firefly and Dollhouse can’t get resigned for new seasons, but tihs like “Two and a Half men” is on for years…

Never seen it, never will.

I don’t understand how it can be so popular. I can’t find a single person who will admit to watching it.

My mom told me a couple of years ago that she liked it. I was in shock–my mom, who says “Oh, swear word!” when she’s upset about something and who firmly believes that all four of us kids think we were immaculate conception babies. I tried watching it once after that, but didn’t make it through the episode.

Eldo, it literally means “what was to be demonstrated” - basically, it’s a fancy way of saying “that’s that”. It’s often found in logic, where it’s usually abbreviated “Q.E.D.”

However, to a physicist, “Q.E.D.” means Quantum Electro Dynamics, which is another kettle of quarks.

I’ve watched it. It’s vulgar, full of “adult” humor and really does demonstrate Charlie Sheen’s actual lifestyle. I guess I watch it to see how far a show can actually go without the FCC stepping in to ban it. Pretty low. The FCC has lowered it’s standard as time goes on….

Q.E.D. = “See?”

Profoundly unfunny show which is lapped up by people of questionable intelligence.

So glad I’ve never seen 2 1/2 Men and have no intention of ever doing so.

I think a better translation of Q.E.D. would be ‘which is the point I was trying to prove’… or ‘make’ in this case.

“Thus it has been proven.”

I admit to watching TV in almost all my waking hours, but there are CHOICES. I have never watched Charlie Sheen or even the Jersey Shore, though I admit to a few guilty items (some real housewives, Wendy and TMZ) but only in between the shows that I like best Project Runway, Top Chef, Next Food Network Star etc. Living alone has it’s benefits and pitfalls. The only network shows I regularly watch are Criminal Minds and The Mentalist.

And the phrase I would still find apt is De Gustibus Non Disputandum Est, which has served me in other things as well.

From Starlilies, I am pleased that I never watched it. Although I thought it silly that declotage needed to be filled and Jeanne (Dream of) had to have her navel covered, we have gone WAY too far in the other direction!
