Or even Family Guy.
and there's even an episode of Family Guy that takes on Fox News..
In an episode entitled "FOX-y Lady," the "Family Guy" took on their own network's news branch this Sunday. The plot revolves around the family's matriarch auditioning to be a Fox News anchor after the woman who held the job previously turned out to be too ugly for HDTV.
In the following scene Lois gets a tour of Fox's studio. She has her liberal dog in tow to prove to him that it's not a "lie factory." It doesn't go well, although the family's fascist baby says it "feels like a warm blanket."
Her hobbies include perspicacity and building models of the soul in lego.

Well, it's just that they have found the formula of giving the public a twisted reality with assholes and dicks as lead characters of the show...
If you apply the formula to a commentary show, you get O'Reilly factor, you apply it to news and you get Fox News, you make a series, and you get House...

I love House. Definitely one of my TV heroes. The 2-hour season premiere looks like it'll be amazing! I can't wait!
They actually recently auctioned off his cane with the flame decals on eBay!

Damn you House! Damn you!
What a fucking sell-out. Did yi hear? He's in 'love' now. What happened to the misanthropic, cynical but cryogenically cool doctor I used to know and respect?
I thought we were going to grow old and bitter together, like those two auld gits from
The Muppet Show.

We like it lots, not for suspense or realism but for class one liners and Sherlock spotting...
It'd be bollox if it wasn't fanciful, Holmes is fanciful.

I love House - arrogant, independent, attractive, intelligent, witty and pained. Maybe its different for men, I guess the deeply buried sensitive side thats begging to be coaxed out doesn't appeal. I don't know whether to fuck him or cuddle him. So they're letting his softer need-to-be-loved side slide in, he's still the sexiest cunt on tv
Men! They're all beasts!
Yeah. But isn't it wonderful?

I plan to marry Greg House in the fall. Even if the later seasons fall short of the first few. What can I say, he's just so darn cute and asshole-y.
Apparently the American phrase he has the most trouble saying is: New York. Lots of re-shot scenes to get those words right.
