It's amazing they got away with it as long as they did.

Stupid Right Wing controlled media.

I can guarantee the show will be back in one form or another. It got so may hits online they are going to change the Nielsen ratings to account for online viewers.

Not to change the subject or anything, but I think its kind of laughable how Hollywood assumes their anti-corporate and anti-Republican screeds will be accepted by America. With the exception of Brokeback Mountain and the Bourne series (which I think is popular because of the fast paced action and Matt Damon), movies like Red-acted, Rendition, Valley of Elijah and Jericho, etc get shafted at the box office, yet these Hollywood clowns give themselves awards based on their "courage" to make anti-war movies.

McGriddles are sick.

Jenna, Horrible..is the US menu much different than the Canadian?

Here you have Egg McMuffin with either Sausage or Bacon (regular sliced bacon) or the traditional Egg McMuffin with sliced ham. I wouldnt call the sliced ham Canadian bacon its not thick enough, its just a regular slice of processed ham. Maybe thats your perception of CB, but imo its different.

You really seem to enjoy your McD's horrible, same here, the double cheeseburgers are my favorite for only a $1.39..you cant lose. Plus McDonalds coke is amazing, I dont know why but it just is.

Yeah, I've addressed the Coke here before....

Here in the States, "canadian bacon" is cured and smoked like traditional bacon, but is from the loin instead of the belly, and is cut in thin, round slices instead of strips. Since the loin is so lean compared to the belly, "canadian bacon" (some call it "back bacon") tastes more like ham than belly bacon.

The McD menu choices sound the same; here, the "Egg McMuffin" is fried egg, a slice of cheese, and canadian bacon on an english muffin. The other option is the "Sausage McMuffin with Egg", and is the same as the Egg McMuffin but has sausage instead of canadian bacon. We've been special-ordering Egg McMuffins, subbing bacon strips for the canadian bacon. Much better with belly bacon instead of back bacon, imo.

McD's here also have Biscuit sandwiches, which are the same as the McMuffins but the egg is scrambled and served on a buttermilk biscuit instead of english muffin. They also have Bagel sanwiches, too. I guess they still do the McGriddles, though I thought they had discontinued those. Guess not.

I'm looking forward to Generation Kill and the return of Entourage.


VioletlightHeon, as for the bit about Brokeback Mountain it appears you may have some issues. That movie was so yesterday. They were gay, get over it. As far as the reason the Political movies failed in the box office I could not say. They looked boring so I didn't go see them. I suspect that's why they didn't do well.

Jericho on the other hand is not a left wing program. If you consider a television program about a group of neo-cons who pull of a September terrorist attack against America, blame a Muslim country, start a false war on two foreign fronts, install a corporation into power, destroy the constitution, operate privet mercenary armies and start a second civil war left wing? Then your crazy. It's obviously conspiracy theory. That stuff could never happen.


Just to stay on topic I'll mention the awesomeness of the Biscuit sandwiches. They go great with Micky D's ridiculously hot coffee.
