Just finished watching Ellen's Really Big Show, could have better spent my time watching the neighborhood Jr. High talent show. The acts looked like America's Got Talent losers. I thought if I had to listen one more time to Ellen follow up an act with the phrase, "just like I taught you" I would puke. Being a huge Ellen fan I expected sooooo much more. I give it two points for the three minutes of air time for Lyle Lovett. I pity those in the audience who traveled and sat through 90 minutes of juggling and Barry Manilow. If this is the result of a writer's strike, I'll personally pitch in to get the writers back. Sadly, this has been advertised since long before the strike. Are there so many channels now we are this desperate for "entertainment?" There's got to be better things to put on TV.
