Walter Cronkite special....
« on: May 18, 2007, 11:52:38 AM »
Kinda ironic that it's on tonight, the same week as Bob's specials. Wow, CBS is doing pretty damn well for May sweeps I must say! I'll try to catch the special...gonna be some big names in TV on it.

There is nothing ironic about that.

Coincidental yes, ironic no.

Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

I wouldn't really call it coincidental, either.  CBS always falls back on its old-timers to fill in gaps in their May sweeps plan.  Look at all of their past specials for Carol Burnett, I Love Lucy, and what-not.

CBS tends to do quite well with its retrospectives. A video preview of the special is on the CBS News web site. I'll definitely be watching tonight at 8:00!
