The last show is tomorrow night. It was one of the few shows on network televison worth watching imo. I'll just have to stick with Dennis Miller.

I was reading about it a couple months ago. Bill Maher got himself in a bunch of hot water with the network when he made a certain comment after 9/11. I can't remember the exact words but the gist of it was it took more courage to fly a plane into a building than it took to airmail explosives on cruise missiles. I think the word cowardly or one of its derivatives was used to describe the US methods in comparison to what the terrorists had just done. Right or wrong, weather I agree with him or not, its sad and ironic that a politically incorrect comment would eventually lead to Bill's termination, er I mean non contract renewal and the show's eventual discontinuation. I remember picking up somewhere else (lots of surf time at work) that Jimmy Kimmel would be given a show in Politically Incorrect's old slot. This would also be the beginning of the end for the Man Show. I don't know if this is still true or even if it was accurate then. I will miss Politically incorrect either way. -Alex - --- Jess wrote: > > Was anyone else aware of Politically Incorrect being > canceled? The last show > is tomorrow night.

I wish I could have watched more of those shows but I have things to do during the weekdays so I can't stay up until 11:30 to watch it and still get up at 6:30. Jessica "I talk to the wind.
