- The damn thing seemed like a "commercial" to be used to sell the show
- overseas, or something.
-
- I really appreciated the bit about "Living in the middle of Nowhere".
- New York might think Minneapolis/St. Paul is the middle of nowhere, but
- there are a few million people who might disagree.
-
- Loved the way that they showed Best Brains and listed it as being in
- minneapolis. It sort of is, it's in Eden Prairie, a suburb of Mpls.
- A suburb about 35 miles away!
-
- The whole damn thing was just annoying. And I thought Doogie Howser went
- off the air a couple of years back. Imagine my horror to discover that
- it appears to still be on. Neil Patrick Harris should go get a real job!
