The Day the Laughter Died
This week saw the best comedies on TV bow out. South Park, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia all ending their respective seasons, while The Office aired its last completed episode. And with all of the late night shows already in reruns, things are only going to get worst before they get better. 30 Rock, which is having one hell of a second season, remains the last remaining beacon of LOLs out there, but it too is limited. With the strike still casting a great shadow over Hollywood, it’s only a matter of time before other shows start to drop. The studio execs need to wise up and realize how much money they’re going to lose once quality TV vanishes. There’s only so much Dancing with the Stars America can tolerate. At least, I hope there is.
