SG1 that is-- I DID watch MacGyver and in fact recently caught a few more episodes on Miro or Hulu or another of those internet tv networks...

Gimme Sugar was disappointing! It seemed totally scripted, right? That would be worse, actually, if someone write that crap. Sorry I’m late to respond to this, but God yes!!!

It always bugs me to hear people criticize the L Word for that. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure we could think of plenty of reasons to criticize this show, but not for the characters being "too hot" or the storylines being silly and outlandish. That's just the nature of TV! Especially a soap opera type show like this one... I loathe Jenny, but I will admit to learning to love to loathe her through her onscreen (s)exploits this past year in particular. She's freaking hilarious.
