I'm getting a lot of questions about my signature picture (let me explain)
It is the cast of the phenomenal NBC family drama "American Dreams", which I think is the best show on television today.

The show is in danger of cancellation from the ratings obsessed bean counters at NBC, and I want to see the show saved. The show was up against unbeatable competition: Extreme Makeover Home Edition on Sunday nights, and now Survivior: Palau and American Idol on Wednesday night. For the first time ever, I took the liberty of writing postcards to NBC executives, pleading with them to save the show. There is a grassroots movement to do so. I am so sick and tired of seeing quality television shows with real professional actors being cancelled one after another, usually to be replaced by some vapid "reality" show.

2. The few times I have seen this show, I've liked it
I agree with you about reality shows - we could use fewer of those.

3. I like the show too, but it's not the fault of reality TV
some of reality tv is really good. If the writers would produce something worth watching, people would abandon reality tv. Until then, when is Survivor on next? In all seriousness, this show has been solid since day one and I hope that it stays. I can't believe they might keep Joey and kill American Dreams. That is what is messed up.

4. A coworker & I were just talking about last nights show.
The issues in the show are so relevant & the characters have depth.
