Is it hot or not.

Well, I haven't seen the preview, and won't see anything about it until it is purchased by one of the free to air networks in Australia and touted as 'the new hit show from America', but nevertheless I will go with a solid no.

This is of course a guess, but I believe that the gigantic intellectual void which has slowly swallowed the world of television much like the mysterious 'emptiness' which ate away at the world in 'The Neverending Story II' makes any new show about a 100/1 shot at being watchable.

The most irritating thing being that despite 'The L Word' being the television equivilent of a striptease by Jar Jar Binks to the musical stylings of Hanson, it will still be overwhelmingly popular because 'boobies' will be gratuitously flashed onscreen for at least 5 out of every 10 minutes...

If the Simpsons weren't on I think I'd be using my TV as an aquarium now, far more entertaining than anything Jerry Bruckheimer can think up.
