I only say that because I remember you once making a crack about the Olsen twins having smoker's voices even when they were young. That coupled with your reaction to Sophia Bush's voice is how I came up with my theory. The science is very exact!

Oh well, I liked this show too. At least Dave Krumholtz can go back to treating Will McAvoy on The Newsroom.

I hope the Will and Grace writers have better luck with their British ITV sitcom about two ageing gays, Ian McKellen and Derek Jacobi. Sounds like it could be fun.

Awww...despite the girlfriend, I really enjoyed the show and looked forward to it.

Not surprised either. It got better numbers than, say, a number of NBC sitcoms, but being on CBS which seems to be doing well audience wise with their traditional sitcoms, I guess it had to go. I won't miss it terribly, but I did continue to enjoy it in a low-key way.

Had no idea they were doing a show for ITV. They haven't had the best luck with sitcoms they've created, W&G aside, but that's a great cast, and maybe iTV will allow them to do what they want with a shorter season and less network interference.

Actually since I posted that, I've realized it's a different writer, Gary Janetti (who also worked on W&G), not Mutchnik and Cohen.

Just to clarify, as no doubt you all hang on my every word. :)

I certainly do That makes a bit more sense though, since I know the w&g creators have an American production studio, it seemed odd they'd be doing a show for ITV. Looking forward to it, regardless. (Doesn't Queer as Folk/Dr Who reboot creator Russell T Davies have a show about aging gay men, Cucumber coming out as well, or is that on hold still due to his boyfriend's cancer).

Here's a slightly more detailed report, if you're interested.

Edit - link not working, and I don't know why not so screw it.

Daphne Rubin-Vega! Phyllis, it took 11 days but I thought of a husky-voiced actress I LOVE!

And her voice is a hell of a lot more destroyed than Sophia Bush's!

I know! See? Despite that, she can act.
