- The guy has almost no taste. #3 & 4 on the list are 2 of the better
- dramas, even though QL ain't what it use to be.
-

-
- A show past it's prime. I always felt it was over-rated, even when it
- was great. It's mediocre from the couple I saw this season.
-
- > 5. Late Night with David Letterman
- > 6. I'll Fly Away
-
- He has some taste, though as much as I LOVE Letterman, I think he is
- over-rated on this list.
-
- > 8. Dream On
-
- Novel show when it started. Really in a rut anymore. Just plain trash.
-
- > 10. Cheers

- AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!! THIS SHOW IS THE WORST THING
- TO BE ON TV THIS YEAR!!!!!! IT'S ALMOST AS BAD AS HELLO LARRY WAS!!!!!
- THIS SHOW IS DEAD!!!!! IT'S BEST SHOW THIS SEASON DOESN'T HOLD A
- CANDLE TO THE WORST EPISODE OF ANY OF THE SHOWS IN THIS GUYS WORST
- LIST!!!! THIS GUY SHOULD GET A LIFE!!!!!! <FLAME OFF>
-
- Seriously, anyone who thinks Cheers is one of the best 10 programs on
- TV this year (Ignoring past seasons, which are MUCH better, some even
- BRILLIANT) should be patted on the head and totally ignored. He's
- going on reputation here, nostalgia if I may say. I wish it was
- cancelled a year ago, so I could look back happily on the show.
-
- Let's face it, the guy likes 'Light entertainment', with the one
- exception of I'll Fly Away. Batman isn't comedy, but it is geared more
- for whole family entertainment. Anything strange (Quantum Leap, Picket
- Fences) in the least is rejected by this buffoon.
-
- Quantum leap will die due to the ratings in it's current slot, (2 top
- 30 shows vs. QL in the 70's) and nothing more.
