Did anyone see "CROSSBALLS" today?
Was it any good? I'm hoping it was as it has one of my favorite members of the UCB as a cast member.

1. I posted the same question earlier. not much interest
I thought the show has some potential. Its a great premise. Real reality TV.

2. I just have a feeling that most people don't know about it yet
There will probably be people posting after the Daily Show about it. I'd bet money on it. If nothing else, I expect cries of relief that Quinn isn't on tonight.

Thanks for your opinion!

4. Dunno...Crossballs has a seven week run (I think) to see how it does
As far as I'm concerned, CROSSBALLS could suck, but if it manages to get Quinn off my TV then I'll be one happy puppy.

5. I wanted to see it, I forgot to watch
I turned from a rerun of the Daily Show to Hardball and then completely forgot to turn back.

9. It was pretty funny
It's a fake debate show with real guests and "Fake" pundits. The topic was reality TV and the moderator is totally believable, could of been from msgop or Fox. The real guests don't know that their own a fake show and they aren't clued in at the end either.

17. I thought the Actor, the real one
not the fake reality bug eater guy looked just like JJ Jackson from MTV, when they used to actually show videos.

16. It's their first show, so I'll give it a week or two to get its footing
Good concept, but it's going to be hard to do for four nights a week. They probably should have made it a weekly show.
