Thats actually a pretty small nfl audience mostly because of two bad teams.
I like B&S but i am afraid this may be it's last year. It is losing too many of the viewers from DH.
The writers need to be working on an end game for what could be the series finale instead of a season finale.
Mor fun, fresh codemies from powerhose ABC and mor boring old realty poo poo platers from the others. Haha lol purr thins! Noww that The Bachelor is back, cant wait for that louse Sillyvester to sppoil it again. So predictabile! Noww off to Yoda.
Ms. M*eow, your wit is a breath of fresh air that Hahn and dat divet miss thang Pereta the divet only dreamed they had! Haha lol porr, sad thangs. Oh, and agreed re: Sillyvulture.
Seriously...Donna/*EOW...will you please just get a life? There are other things in life besides stupid reality shows that you idiot(s) like to talk about a lot. It's 2011...try and start the New Year off right if you're able to just comprehend those thoughts, but since you and your alter egos are lacking common sense, I guess we're just asking for the impossible here. GROW UP, GET HELP and beat your brains in, whatever might be left of them.
As I stated before...once a douchebag, always a douchebag and Donna/*EOW, you exemplify that to a tee. You're absoultely pathetic!
Moving Etreme Home Makeovers may prove to be a costly mistake over at ABC. That show is still banging after all these years and so is America's Funniest Home Videos. Bros & Sisters normally holds better. I wonder what gives.
**** eats poop.
