WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!

If you don`t want to see the worst show on tv, DON`T watch NBC's
"The NEW Show".  It`s basically a rotten take-off on Saturday Night
Live".  I watched the premere & thought I may have found something
as it opened with Steve Martin doing a spoof of Michael Jackson`s
"Bilie Jean" video.  Good stuff.  From there it plummetted to the pits.
It was barely funny.  I decided to give it a second chance
Friday, cause they had John Candy on, who I think is very funny.
Carrie Fisher and Paul Simon aslo guest starred, but the
material was so bad nobody could save it.  Next week if I`m
home on Friday night, I`ll wait till 9:30 to turn on the t.v.
and watch "Honeymooners" reruns.  Now THAT`S comedy!
"The NEW Show" deserved the fate of the ABC series "GO"
(It was cancelled after only 1 show)!
