other cool shows in trouble, too

Seinfeld isn't the only show that may bite the dust this spring. If you're into animation, there are reports in other chat rooms that Animaniacs and Pinky & The Brain may no longer make new episodes for Kids WB. Those shows are among the most cleverly written on the air, with all sorts of hip cultural references. Maybe Spielberg can find them a new home, just as MST3K wound up on the Sci-Fi Channel.

What will you watch prime-time post-Seinfeld? I'm afraid I'm limited to The Simpsons, King Of The Hill and Sabrina The Teenage Witch (try an episode--it may surprise you). Most of NBC's other sitcoms are so formulaic they're not worth watching. Blame all those damn young Harvard grads writing the episodes (two of them have brought Seinfeld downhill much of this year).

Funny you should mention it. I caught myself watching an episode of Sabrina. The characters are there, the plots are forced, but Nick Bakay, as the cat, is a hoot! I'm now willing to watch that show for no other reason that to see the cat!

I watch "Sabrina" too - but strictly for nostalgic reasons. It is very much a run of the mill sitcom - nothing distinctive and definitely not in a class with "Seinfeld." I watched "Newsradio" last week and it seemed pretty good...

You have GOT to be kidding.

Not in the least. Is it any different that watching Wings for no other reason than Antonio Scarpacci (Which I also do)? [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.)
