Mr Willowby's Christmas wins (or loses) for worst and most boring-robert downey jr+leslie nielsen+stockard channing? who thought that up? blech!

I hear that, Muppet Newsgirl! At our house we have actually cut the cable/satellite cord and just have an aerial to get Canadian tv! LOL! Watching DVDs sans commercials is so much better, especially since you see so many parts that are edited on TV. Sorry, I am muffining! milady
