Where do I say they cancelled an interview with Phil as you claim?
Ok you did say family. I stand corrected.

quote:

I found an article that said they had a New Years eve interview scheduled with Willie. They promoted it as being the first interview to discuss the controversy, but they changed the interview format and only asked Willie one question about it and all he said was "We're just glad to be working again."

Wasn't that big a deal.





This what you said.

quote:

I think even Fox cancelled an interview they had scheduled with some of the family.



So why did you say this if it's not true? Changing the format is not the same as cancelling. I googled Fox cancelling an interview with the robertson family and nothing comes up.

Agreed. I was wrong. That's why I double checked and relayed the correct info.

You might feel differently if you had kids.
What does that matter? Would having kids affect Phil's choice of vagina over anus?

Im not following you at all. At no point in this thread did I discuss Phil's preferences regarding male vs female.

Ok fair enough. If I misread your position, I'm sorry.

Too often during this ishtshow some of the people criticizing PR for being "judgmental" of gheys choice (even though he said not to judge others) --then turn around and judge his choices. It's odd.

Not aimed at you, just in general.

8 million people still watched the premiere so i think reports of their demise are extremely exaggerated ... At any rate, the Robertsons are still very very popular and if this show ends in the next few years some of the players will still be around for a long time...... Sorry, Toddy but those are the facts

Over saturation. They knew it wouldn't last forever which is why they made a decision to make as much money as possible, as quick as possible.

If you would have been in North La this Christmas, you would understand completely what I mean.


This is the reason...and it had to happen. Really, how interesting is the show anyway? I mean after 3 episodes you have seen the entire spiel....there isn't anything else to see. It is a funny, entertaining show, but it gets old fast, in my experience.

The Robertson's are smart to make it while the sun shines and hopefully when their fame is less than it is now they will look back on the time fondly and not be bitter about not being the rock starts they once were. They seem to be genuinely nice people despite some very conservative, typically southern ideas.....

So, does this mean that not everyone wants to be gay?

the closeted redneck homos who fantasized about pulling Phil's beard while skull fricking him were offended.

Popularity of show had to dip naturally. How many seasons has it been?

My favorite show of this type was/is Deadliest Catch. And it has seen a decrease after their "Phil" died. Ask any of those dudes pointed questions and "the ghey" and I bet you get a non PC response.

No, I know that southern conservatives are generally genuinely nice people. They talk a lot about some stupid shite but when they are confronted with something that they were railing about just a few days ago they prove time and again to be decent human beings.

For example I have known quite a few mouth breathing racists in my life. I mean serious racists and, by the way, conservative republicans to a person. The thing is that if any of these people ever get to know a black person even on a most rudimentary level that person is "a good one"...if you know what I mean. They can become good friends even...

No, I know full well that the majority of the bull shite that ya'll talk about and support is a result of your fears that one of your neighbors will find out that you really don't hate homosexuals and unwed mothers.
