Bah. I like Natascha McElhone, but not enough to watch this!

Is this the conservative one that BTR likes, or is that someone else?...

More reality drivel from Fox, the "broadcast net" that is about as much 
of a "network" these days as The All New! NEW!! CW is!

to "Joker: Folie a Deux" yet, so maybe I never will!

actually be funny.
