2. 0.00000001
And MSNBC fires Miller in embarrassment that he couldn't even attract a fly (or a roach).

3. Who cares?
I attempted to watch it last night. Dennis used to be one of my favorite comedians, but I found this new show just unwatchable. I made it through less than ten minutes. The camera work was amateurish, his writing was mediocre, but most amazingly, his own delivery was forced and halting...so obviously stumbling over his Telepromtr it was embarrasing. It was like the first time he's been on tv. And he just wasnt' funny.

My guess is that Miller is the basic opportunist who thought jumping to what he thought was the "winning team" during its high would be a good career move.

Dennis...buy low, sell high. You jumped on the Bush bandwagon just as it began to veer off the cliff. Republicans don't get your style, and now every dem in the world hates your guts. Imagine how precient you'd appear if you had BOUGHT LOW, and were now championing the Take Back America movement -- you'd be a hero, Dennis.

Now, you're just a sell-out. Soon to be a has-been sell-out. Good riddance.

4. If you count the studio audience
and his mom, there are probably about 31 people watching.

8. Don't worry, Dennis will always have a job

Ratings schmatings. Dennis will always be a paid court jester for swampthing republicans.

He just got a gig telling stale jokes to drunken telecommunications salesmen in Florida:

http://www.localtechwire.com/article.cfm?u=6851

ATLANTA – Comedian Dennis Miller will be the featured entertainment for the 11th Annual Wireless Gala at CTIA Wireless 2004.

"Dennis Miller is sure to have all of us on the edge of our seats in a full belly laugh,” said Steve Largent, president and CEO of the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA). “Wireless 2004 is the premiere wireless event in the world. It’s an honor and a delight to have Dennis Miller on the marquis as one of the great highlights at Wireless 2004.”

-------
Steve Largent is a republican jock thrown out of office by voters in Oklahoma recently.


What's next for Dennis? A "Circus of the Stars" special on CBS? ("Circus of the washed up has beens" is more like it.)
