I can't say it any better

Kristen at E on what's moving into the timeslot formerly occupied by Arrested Development:

So, now we know. FOX canceled Arrested Development because they had a GENIUS diamond in the rough waiting in the wings that is claiming its very timeslot ....

"SKATING WITH CELEBRITIES"

I am not kidding.

THIS is the drivel that will replace our beloved Bluths.

I'm speechless. And in need of a sledgehammer. Got one?

The participants:
Nancy Kerrigan & Dave Coulier
Kurt Browning & Deborah Gibson
Tai Babilonia & Bruce Jenner
John Zimmerman & Jillian Barberie
Lloyd Eisler & Kristy Swanson
Jenni Meno & Todd Bridges
Host - Scott Hamilton
Co-host - Summer Sanders
Judges - Dorothy Hamill, John Nicks, Mark Lund

So, just to clarify, The EMMY WINNING ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT IS BEING REPLACED BY WILLIS ON ICE.


I swear, I'm tempted to pay Tonya Harding to take a crowbar and start kneecapping these folks.

This is all about capitalizing on Dancing with the Stars.

We need our own D-list celeb show, showcasing some sort of special talent.

Reality programming is cheap and copying reality programming is cheaper.

Low risk, but high reward potential.

Yes, it's stupid. But in your heart you know why.

BTW, it will tank because it *ISN'T* Dancing with the Stars.
