Sex in the City is a HBO show that is rampantly popular, for some reason. You should check out "OZ" on HBO for quality hard hitting programming.

BTW, the Red Green show is funny in a strange sort of way. Faulty Towers is better though.

I agree on Sex in the City. It is a total waste of time. It's only better relative to HBO comedians who think putting m..r f...r in every (so-called) sentence is funny. Red Green is really funny. I hope you get to see it. For example, one project was making a gull-wing Delorian look-alike out of a Datsun using duct tape. Red Green uses duct tape for everything in the most hilarious way.

I guess I'm tired of tuning in NPR on the way home from work and hearing some article about "gays in the military," "gays being this or that," "Aids as a disease anyone can get," etc. etc. The choice of topics is too often one near and dear to the political left.

As to subtle bias on NPR: Articles about George Bush begin and end with a downer, even if the content is "balanced." Articles about a left-wing topic begin and end with an upper. Interviews feature an articulate spokesman for the left-wing topic and an inarticulate one for the opposing view.
