"Critically Acclaimed Cult Hits On Fox Gets Maximum Contract Extensions In Spite of Low Nielsen Ratings:
Said one Fox executive, "Well, quite frankly, we're in the business of 'quality programming' and so when it comes to choosing between loyal, niche yet small viewers or big corporations willing to give us millions on adversiting? You'd see the easy choice"

Heh. If this ever happens, I will quit my job, fly to Los Angeles, and go on a hunger strike outside of The CW headquarters while holding a "Renew the show with the pretty gay boys" sign.

• Creator of America's Funniest Home Videos admits he sold his soul to the Devil. "Of course I did," he said. "Why the Hell else would this show still be on?"
• Marc Cherry admits most of season two of Desperate Housewives was pretty lame. "And so is my being a gay Republican," he added.
• The CW admits cancelling Everwood was a mistake. "We'll bring it back after the final 'Mary Camden shows up at her family home and kills everyone' episode of 7th Heaven," said Dawn Ostroff.
• Roger Ailes admits Fox News has a conservative slant; "No one seriously bought that 'fair and balanced' line, did they?" Ailes laughed.
