Ha ha! #1 replacement! Take that, Simpsons!
14 | Pam Scherbatsky Sat. Mar. 29, 2008 at 7:22amMindy’s already posted again!
I seriously snorted about half-way through.
13 | Kim Tue. Mar. 25, 2008 at 7:43pmI don’t think The Office is technically being named the #1 replacement. The list is chronological by year, with The Office being the most recent. Still cool it made the list though!
12 | Beth Mon. Mar. 24, 2008 at 12:11pmHey, tanster — Now I always say “Cor-not University”, as in “Last week Stanford men’s basketball beat Cor-not in a blow out.” tee hee!
11 | Amy Mon. Mar. 24, 2008 at 10:40amHow can Dawson’s Creek be better than The Simpsons, All in the Family, Married with Children?
10 | Robin Mon. Mar. 24, 2008 at 5:24am#1 and #4 I was a little perplexed with the Simpsons placement, too. I probably would’ve had Simpsons 1 and Office 2. And I’m a HUGE Office fan. The Simpsons has been around for 20 years, though. That’s saying something.
Then, I realized that it’s really not a big deal. It’s just someone’s opinion. :-)
9 | Junior Mon. Mar. 24, 2008 at 12:17amRainn in SF? Please say it’s true.
8 | Eileen Sun. Mar. 23, 2008 at 9:57pmEd Helms will also be on Conan this Wednesday night (3/26).
[from tanster: this is a repeat.]
7 | Sara Sun. Mar. 23, 2008 at 7:17pmThanks for putting the tally together!
6 | The Office B*tch Sun. Mar. 23, 2008 at 6:35pmI only caught about three words of that before I totally lost focus…John, Krasinksi, and Leno! LoL! :::programs TV:::
5 | Ashley Sun. Mar. 23, 2008 at 6:00pmRe #1 (Andrew), yeah I was a bit stunned that The Simpsons were beat by ANY show, but especially Dawson’s Creek? I’m just thankful The Office out-ranked Dawson.
4 | Callan Sun. Mar. 23, 2008 at 5:26pmKudos to The Office as MSN’s best all time mid-season replacement show! I was one of those snarling naysayers back in 2005 who embraced the perfection of the original Office and cringed at the thought of an American version. That is, until I came upon Diversity Day by accident right when Dwight says, “Shalom, I’d like to apply for a loan.” The next time I found it channel surfing was the beginning of the Hot Girl episode, and from there I was totally hooked and anxiously hoping it wouldn’t be canceled. I’m glad it got good reviews, great support like this site, and a bigger following!
Too bad about BJ Novak not being able to make the appearance in Seattle. I just got notification of the cancellation from Tickets West. Hope it will be rescheduled, because it was nearly sold out! Well, maybe this summer (hope, hope, hope).
3 | what's the dealio Sun. Mar. 23, 2008 at 4:54pmRashida Jones is supposed to appear on the Late Show with Craig Ferguson on Monday March 24 if anyone is interested.
2 | mcast21787 Sun. Mar. 23, 2008 at 4:32pmWow…The Office beat The Simpsons.
I don’t know how I feel about this. They are both such excellent shows!
