It is highly unlikely that the Hardys would run into so many cases.They need ATAC to get their cases. The Network was always not wanting them on missions, not sending them on missions! >:(
Thats exactly why i hate ATAC. The Hardy Boys are not just agents who do someones
bidding, they are supposed to be off doing something that all of us do, then stumble
upon a case. You can relate to them like that. The Hardy Boys will be doing something
like shopping (something we can relate to) when all of a sudden they find a sales clerk
dead or something. Its really hard to relate to the Hardys when they're getting super-
secret equipment and messages from a secret agency a la Mission: Impossible. Since i
am a secret CIA agent who dabbles in international intrigue and gets cool gadgets all
the time as well as being a top government hitman-assasin, i can semi-relate to them,
but the average reader cannot anymore.
I agree with negative-zone. S&S has turned the Hardy Boys into the sons of James Bond who work for MI-6 than two boys who stumble on cases and the cases are cases of spontanaity, unlike the ATAC cases where it seems that the HArdy's are always solving murder.
No, ATAC must go, Yes ATAC MOST DEFINETLY NEEDS A BOOT OUT THE DOOR.

thats classfied. I could tell ya, but then i'd have to kill ya. ;)
Well, I don't always like ATAC because they give them all these gadgets (as opposed to using their brains - but I guess the stories are getting better on that), and the plots sometimes seem so contrived in that you feel that you are just watching something fake. In addition, the cases are almost always perfectly wrapped up/solved with everybody happy. Obviously I'm exaggerating a bit, and I understand that "gadgets" do not always have to be these large super-secret things, that they can be something simple like a good cell phone or GPS, which is reasonable.
But the real Hardy Boys would depend on their wits and want to help others i.e. the common person, and not just go after the big guys. They also run into more realistic complications, and things are never black-and-white and solved completely (I mean not just cases being solved, but the things that happen in people's lives that will be hard to forgot or difficult to recover from).
Almost broke into laughter reading the title. (No offence)
ATAC ruined the series. Now the Hardy Boys just go on random missions without finding there own myisteries.
Kinda ruins the point of the series dosn't it?

I have to disagree with you there, I don't think it's ATAC it's self that was ruined the series, rather I think it's how ATAC has been used. If ATAC was not so overkill and not in every single book I think we would not be so sick of it!
I woudn't mind if ATAC only appeared in a few books, but EVERY CASE must be assigned by ATAC! This is getting crazy!
What are the Hardy's? Foot soldiers or generals?
like i said befor, you just don't run into mysteries! besides, the wrld is full of crime. also,in some books they make mention of their regular lifes, something all of us can relate to.
Once there was a group named ATAC
The writers who wrote them didnt know Jack
Readers were unpleased with the books
They didnt even like the cover's looks
There were some naive readers who liked them
They thought the books were a gem
But they failed to realize that they
Werent as good as the ones with Mr. Gray ;)

Gotta agree with you on that.
Hey here's a good plot for an ATAC book:
The Hardy's girlfriend's, Callie and Iola are getting worried that Frank and Joe might be cheating on them. Instead of hiring a couple of Detectives, Callie and Iola become detectives and figure out that the Hardy's are cheating on them---being with tons of beautiful girls on their ATAC investigations.
People do run into miyisteries. For example I just learned that my favote computer was missing and I still can't find it! So Firefox, don't use that silly argument. It's quite easy to run into myisteries.
Not really that easy
I happen to enjoy ATAC. :)
Yeah I've sort of got a mystery, myself, right now. Where did I last place my Sega Genesis copy of Spider-Man. Its probably under some old VHS tapes in a corner of the basement, but it'll show up some day.
You can run into the occasional mystery or two, but 300 and more?!! ??? ??? ???
Yeah, the closest I ever got to something like that was being in a Subway when it was robbed, and i didnt even notice ... I was really hungry

Are you referring to the one for Sega CD where Spider-Man is framed, and he webs the old womans dog, and she's like "Oh my poor doggy!"?
That's also the one with the song that goes something like: "Now it's swing time"
Anyway, My brother has
that game, and I've played it.

Nether is it likly that they couldnt find a few cases on their own. You'd think that they would able to find some cases by theirselfs
Well, not everything is suppose to be 100% realistic. If so, then they would be dead by now after all of those cases (of course, I'm sorta exaggerating).
We're suppose to go along with them finding cases, because there is some authenticity in it. Just like we suspend our disbelief in movies!

Good point! If this was real life the boys would have been killed within the first few books! And if not then, then later, I mean think about how many times they've been shot at! So the realism argument is kind of lame!
Plus, ATAC is getting lame, it needs to go...
Somehow, I think S&S was originally thinking of ATAC maybe being the American Teenage version of MI6 from the James Bond stories/movies, but considering that after nearly 30 books nothing more has been revealed about ATAC, it is getting lame.
I think if they used ATAC how MI6 is used in (another kids novel series) Alex Rider, it would be a lot better! There's only seven books in the series, but Alex has met a lot more MI6 personal then the Hardys have met with ATAC. Also even Alex who has worked for MI6 since the beginning has had three non-MI6 missions!
Yeah, I'm in the middle of the 3rd book for Alex Rider (Skeleton Key) and I can already say that the way they use MI6 is much, much better. It doesn't define the whole series at all. Alex even hesitates "working" for them (most of the time, he's forced).

Forgive me for saying this, but I like the series with ATAC more because its more actionpacked!! Anyone else have that same opinion?

Its way more than talking!!!!
Yes, I agree there is more then talking but the Casefiles are more action packed.
I was just giving my opinion that ATAC is my favorite, I have read some casefiles.
I've got nothing against the UB or ATAC, as you call it, being being your favorite, I was just saying there's more action in the Casefiles, since you said the UB were more action-packed.

Agreed.
Excerpt from a UB chapter:
FRANK
I walked over to the suspect barkeep standing at the counter. "Can I get a Pepsi?" I said.
"Sure," said the barkeep as he poured my drink.
"So, have you seen any suspicious customers come through here in the past couple of hours," I asked.
"Nope, can't say I have," replied the barkeep as he squeezed some lemon into my drink. "Enjoy."
Realizing that I wasn't going to get much more from Quark here, I headed back over to where my brother was mingling with some girls. Just great, here we were on a case were people seemed to be coming down with food poisioning, possible a plot for revenge, and my brother couldn't keep his eyes off the girls.
Of course, I'm one to speak. Everytime that I get near a girl my mouth turns dry and it feels like I've got a wad of peanut butter in it, then my insides feel like I want to hurl and I get a really fast urge to get to the nearest washroom as soon as possible before I have an accident.
"...there we were, about to get killed by a guy shoving hotdogs down our throat, when the police showed to arrest Johnson." As Joe was talking I noticed that his eyes were wide open, and I could tell that he was more interested in the girls on his arms than he was about this case.
JOE
No I wasn't more interested in the girls! I was just trying to---ah---lul them into a false sense of security...
FRANK
This is my section Joe! Back off. Anyway, Joe was all goo-goo eyed for the girls, when all of a sudden I heard a voice whispering in my ear.
"You want to find out who is out for revenge?" the voice whispered.
"Yes," I whispered back.
"Be at the Falls tomorrow night at 8 sharp and you'll find out then. Now, count to 20, and then turn around. If you don't do as I say then some one in this room is going to die a very quick and painful death."
With that, I heard the person backing away. Just great, why did the criminals always expect us to talk them into surrendering? I why were we always going up against one or two people.
I started to count.
"20...19...18...17..."
Imagine that was all real? We are depending on them to bring criminals to justice when they are just fooling around to that extent while on a case.
Must be why they get the assignments they do ;)
Can you imagine them going after gangs? After the bad guys "de-gadget" them, what's left?
Kidding, sort of. Don't mean to insult the ATAC fans.
I actully thought that was a real excerpt from a UB untill the end! The part about Frank and girls is a perfect example of one of the UB biggest downfalls! Personallity changes!

ROTFLOL!
That could
be a line from the UB series! Or the whole chapter could be, for that matter! ::) ::) ::)
I thought it was!
That was a passage that I wrote in about 5 minutes.

Becaus they're to easy to poke fun at. Casefiles are ten times better then UBs and so are all the other series.
Not to mention that I have made fun of Shock Jock, witch is a casefile.
I find it interesting that people may like other HBs series over the Casefiles, but you can't really insult the Casefiles because, well, there isn't really anything wrong with them!
I'm serious on that though...can you really pick on the Casefiles?
Sorry, this is a thread about ATAC.

Face ATAC fans, Network will always win. Every single on of your arguments has been rebuutted, and it's tough to dis the casefiles. Network will always win.
That's the truth, and yes it hurts.

It'll probably end when the Undercover Brothers end at #30 Erasure and people will see that the Original/Digest and Casefiles Continuities were better because they ran for more than 30 volumes.
Hopefully it will.
You know the CFs way be winning because MPF is on HardyBoysCasefiles.com.
yeah, you be knowing that, thanks Paul Hewitt, should I check my neighbor?

Or even cases of espionage?
Do you high schoolers just live on a menu of murder stories nowadays?
I think its the whole culture, its called CSI disease
ATAC was the lamest idea ever.
Lets just be glad that none of the authors have dragged the Network into any of the Undercover Brothers stories.
Didn't they try to put the Gray Man in one of the Graphic Novels? One of the earlier ones?
Yes, they did but that was before ATAC. Plus Scot Lobdell is a long time Hardy Boys fan.
Although I'm an ATAC fan I would like to see the Gray Man mabey he is Q's brother. ;D
That would be interesting...

well,what would you chose:going undercover at the X-games :),or...nearly getting blown up and your van getting blown up :(! anyway,no majorish characters get blown up >:(! (oooh,low blow ::)! :D)
Well, that makes it more real - to have something so major happen to the Hardys.
Anyways, ATAC has a million murders on their hands, so...
Yeah, Fox, you just mentioned one of the best things about the Casefiles - the death of Iola. It kick started the series!

Whatever would infulence the plot more. As we said, Ioas death was good in a way because it ment the hardy's had an arch enemy. Besides I'd rather blow up the join a dumb sercet angecy that investigate boring cases and earses all continuly! And blowing up is better then being like Callie and earsed from the series!
Network Fans- (http://bestsmileys.com/hitting/3.gif) -ATAC Fans

I suck at baseball, so I certainly wouldn't carry a baseball bat, maybe a chainsaw... :D
Actually, that picture of the fans that Robin posted is somewhat wrong (although the intention was right, I guess lol). The two fighting parties are equal, which means no one's winning. And someone always has to win ;)
Can't we all just get along? ::)
no we can't, we are not high hippies
didn't think so.

It's a reflection on ATAC. While the Network solves problems without hesitation and without room for failure, ATAC is afraid of a splinter so they'll just throw flowers in the air and we'll all hold hands around a fire chanting...
Okay, sorry ATAC fans. I'm actually making an effort not to jab at the UBs. I haven't for a while. Sorry.

"Q" and Fenton Hardy are disappointed at ATAC's behaviour and waste of resources, barring them from any detective work ever again.
Quote from: Negative Zone on September 14, 2008, 05:58:29 PM
Network fans too busy doing stuff that actually matters
For sure.
THE END
*Network fans are actually working on Adult cases while ATAC fans piddle and paddle at each other over their childish cases.*
Network was the one watching Barney!
*The net's adult cases include "who took the Cookies" and "Is there a Monster under my Bed"*
*The monster is actually ATAC and they plant bombs under their beds and the Network fans all blow up and are never seen or heard from again*
THE END!
UB fan get owned by Dora the expoler and kill themself and the world is free of them!
THE END!
*ATAC fans fail to realize that writing disjointed story doesn't make ATAC suck less*
*Network fans forget that they helped write it*
*Network is already blown up but are scared to death by ATAC pretending to be their own ghosts out for revenge, which they get by scareing them to death*
ATAC dosen't relize that they killed decoys and the blow up for real and die for real and this form can resume without a bunch of doheads ruining it.
Bigfootman, you are the one who doesn't want MPF to fall apart fighting, but you're basically telling us to go away!
*Net fans die because angry ATAC fans surive and blow them up and net fans are tossed in the river*
*Fish swim as far AWAY AS POSSIBLE!*
*And they all drown and regret they ever made fun of ATAC, which is better than the drowned Network*
Excatly, because you UB fans are ruining it! If you guys hadn't came with your arguments that had been rebutted a million times yet you still USE THEM, quite a few of haven't even read the casefiles, and you guys obviouly don't know the the Hardy Boys that well, because you that the series that is removing Chet Mortion is the best series ever, this form would be peicefull.
You are the one who usually starts fights by trashing UB books meanly. >:(

Yeah right, you guys do it too.
We don't trash Casefiles, we just defend whats better, A.K.A. ATAC and Undercover Brothers!!!!!
What does Cheat prefer a world where he is safe and out of danger on one where his sister is dead!
You don't call this mean?:
"should i ask you why you like the Network ? Nah, i don't wanna hear it . i mean asking me why is like asking you why you like Network. so ask that to yourself, and hopefully, while you do you'll leave me alone!!!
and i don't want the maturity thing!"
No! were just defending our series! And I guess you guys aren't true Hardy Boys fans because you only like select types of Hardy Boys.
That's the only real mean thing said about casefiles that I can remember. There are many more insults about the Ub books.
Oh yeah ATAC is not better it's junk, losy junk, Casefiles have always had better writing more action and Chet Mortion not dissapearing into thin air! None of these Ubs have.
UB's have more action and are cooler than Casefiles!

Action? What action? Every clifhanger has talking, for crying out load one of the bad guys was a 12 year old!
There is action, and Thrill Ride was not one of the best UBs.

Should I aslo mention:
-Hazed
-Rockey Road
-Feeding Frenzy
-Murder House
-Sea You, Sea Me
-Malled
-Terror On Tour
All these books eather had no action or very little.

If you say Terror on tour was bad, then your'e insulting Nancy Drew now, too! And Hazed and Murder House did have action!
I'm not insulting Nancy Drew! Terror On Tour just wasn't one of her better books and I've read Hazed, the action was in 2 chapters and Murder House also had little action.
Oh here are all the good charcatersearsed from the UBs:
-Ioa
-Callie
-Tony
-Biff
-Chet (almost)
You know ATAC fans, if you don't want to see the UBs being made fun of, you shouldn't in a form full of Network Fans, you should star your own form, where UB dissing is not allowed.
Well maybe we will! And because of you, this forum will be divided and split up because of that comment!
Guys, let's just calm down and stop fighting. Everyone has their own opinion, and I don't want this forum to split because of this argument.
Whoa, okay everyone. Breathe.
I like breathing, it helps me live
I will never surrender!
try breathing, it helps me live
I'm so glad oliviatocali told me to breathe, otherwise I probably wouldn't be living right now
Wow, it seems like you are trying so hard to change the subject!
I like breathing
Hey Negative Zone, try an even more complex technique. Inhale all the good, Exhale all the bad. Inhale, Exhale.
hey, this breathing thing rocks! I hope I don't get addicted though.
Is there a thing as too much oxygen? Nah.
NZone, I'm committing you to "Breathoholics Anonymous". ;D

For example:
At first Fention didn't want Frank and Joe to play football, so what happened in Foul Play? I woun't mind the series if the ghostwriters accutly read the OTHER BOOKS before writing another one!
Mabey it would help if you actualy read them F&J dont play at Bayport but in Foul Play they are out of Bayport and underover at a colage. They are still not on the BHS team!
But they ARE STILL PLAYING FOOTBALL! So I'd excpect AT LEAST a comment from their dad.

Because that would be bad writing for a series that has always somewhat been serialized.
Quote from: Q on September 16, 2008, 09:04:00 AM

The books could be standalones, but even standalone book series and TV series need a continuity within all the books. You couldn't have one book say that one character is 18 years old, and then in the next book mention that it had been five years since the previous adventure, but the character is now 16 years old.
Or if you watch the Christopher Reeves Superman movies and then watch Bryan Singer's
Superman Returns, there is a major lack of continuity in that movie which is suppose to be a sequel to
Superman 2. If you look at the newsroom in
Superman 2 you'll notice that there is one very seventiesh CRT Television up on a post. But then in
Superman Returns, which "supposedly" takes place 5 years later, there are 50" flat screen Plasma TV's? Not exactly keeping in continuity with the previous films.
It is just like in the Hardy Boys Undercover Brothers series. During the first 4 books it is mentioned that the Hardy's get to keep their mission discs since the top-secret content has been deleted and the disc is now a music CD or music DVD. But then, in volume 5 ATAC decides to "recycle" the discs because they still contain the top-secret video. But then in Volume 6 it is mentioned that the Hardy's keep the disc since it is a regular CD after the top-secret stuff has been played. And it keeps flip-flopping through-out the rest of the series, and even then there are some books where the author tries to say that the Hardys keep the disc for a time but then send it back to recycle, and immediately in the next book it goes back to where the Hardys get to keep the disc or send it right back to ATAC.
Also, there is no mention of the Hardys having to send the ATAC gadgets back that they get every mission, but then in every book they are surprised by different ATAC gadgets and yet a lot of the gadgets are simple repeats of other gadgets that the Hardy's already received. Like, how many times do the Hardy's need to get a new lock-picking set? Sure it may look like a credit card or coin, but still its a lock-picking set, or a data retrieval device.

Actually, I think the fighting should chill. It's one thing to poke fun, it's another to continue to completely insult (even if what you say is in fact, true).
There is a UBs section in this forum too. Everyone's opinion is allowed to be heard in a civil manner. I'm not saying stop debating or stop pointing out what you want, but do it logically and fairly. This whole repetitive cycle is getting tired.
I know I'm guilty of things too, but I've been trying to lighten up.
*Backs away slowly because I know I suddenly made enemies of the Network fans...*
Agreed, no one's even saying why they like UB or don't like it any more.

Right on, Olivia! :)
Oh yeah, about this UB having more action then Casefiles, JUNK!
The only book that comes close to that is Wanted, and even that has a few chpaters that drag on. The casefiles have explosins, fist fights longer then 3 sentenes,and gun fights.
The UBs, sure Frank and Joe get knocked out sometimes, but the fist fights, are rare and if they do happen, short. And sometimes the bad guys just run away and are caught easily (Feeding Frenzy).
And of course the Casefiles have better bad guys. In the Casefiles, the main bad guys are the Assasians, some of the deadlest criminals ever in a Hardy Boys book. They even blew up Ioa. And they usialy kill themselfs when captured.
On the other hand, UB has WARD. However, they only appear in GNs (witch are way better then the UB Novels), and they are less dangerous then the Assasians. The UB novel bad guys are awful and consit of : 2 teachers, a docter, a 12 year old, and a teenager. (There are more bad guys but I don't remeber them, and they still weren't as good as the casefile bad guys)
So the "UBs Have More Action Then Casefiles" argument is bogus.
We realy should revisit the topic about should we have peace see what every one thinks now. (http://bestsmileys.com/peace/1.gif)
Ok, I just wanted to talk about the action thing before going to peace.
each side stay out of the other side's "calling all" unless you have a really good reason!
That rule applies to you to, Bigfootman! ::)
I had a good reason, I needed to know where that smily came from!
BTW there is links to best smiles and other Smile sites on the Share the wealth topic.
Actually, that last post Bigfootman did about the action was appropriate in my opinion. Yeah, he used the word "bogus" but that's really tame and was just used a couple times to describe his opinion/observations. Plus he pointed things out logically without stretching it or making insults.
If you meant stop posting in here, then okay. But what about people who sort of have a side but have neutral-ish attitudes/tendencies?

No, I haven't been suspended, I was just wondering if someone actually can be.
I was atualy asking Nzone since he was saying its not fun and I was like how does he know?
I don't think there was any official suspension policy on here, but I suppose if someone keeps spamming or goes overboard to harass other posters (I don't think anyone is really guilty of this, just guilty of being a little annoying maybe) then I think it's entirely possible.
Unless someone knows something that I don't.
I know all but tell nothing! ;D
You should ask Skywarp.. Would he know?
Um let's think about this one. That's like asking Jerry Jones if he would know what trades the Cowboys are gonna make.
Doesn't Skywarp run the site?
yes he does, which is why I said what I did, if you can't tell Bones, my patience is dangling on a spider's thread over hell, a la Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God
Holy Spaz!!! Stop it Nzone.. I just plainly wanted to ask him a question..

Nzone is a little stressed you see he thinks the cops are aboute to find his hide out and has to move it.
No, he's stressed because the cops have already found his hideout. He's somewhere he can't get internet access, such as alcatraz, so his computer takes days to load. (If he's lucky)
So anyway, I was walking the other day and I met this guy, you would probably like him Robin, said he was the Birdman of Razzmatazz or something like that
Hope you never meet someone like bozonessinc.. I'm too unique for that to happen of course.
Okay, lets get back on topic...or stop posting.
Got it SDLagent.
So ATAC is good because it is action-packed, you always know about the book. Whereas with the casefiles, you don't know if the network is in it or not. ATAC is always in the UB's!

No, he's actually peeling onions.
Oh, yeah. Probably making a casserole.
For who, I wonder...
Um, let me see, *looks over Sam's shoulder* Eww, I hope not for any of us! I see carrots, chocolate, potato chips, and an U.L.(Unidentified Leftover)

No, Its just some girl called me a stalker the other day. She was such an idiot!
um ... what were you doing ... and more importantly why were you caught?
I wasn't doing anything, she just decided to annoy me...
I don't know if a girl would actually try to annoy someone by calling them a "stalker". And I don't know why a girl would want to annoy a guy, unless they wanted to scare him off or something, but even that's a weak/rare case.
Unless you used to be friends or something and it ended badly and/or one of you became popular and the other one didn't. I could probably come up with more possibilities but no one asked my input so I'll shut up now.
People never ask for my input either but ...
Yeah, this is a discussion board. Anything brought up is fair game I suppose (most of the time).
in real life too, I have this habit of being unseen while listening to conversations, then popping in at the most inopportune time
Pfft. Luckily I rarely discuss anything really personal in real life, and I'm super careful when I do ::)
You must have a truckload of friends ;)
no, they're kindof used to me ...
I don't try to get my "offline" life on here. That happened accidentally, and really, I don't care about such person. Can we get off this discussion and back on to the one about ATAC is GOOD!!!

Thank you for saying its a PSP.. Now can we stop worrying about PSPs, just talk about things on the forum!
Honestly, if it's a couple of posts that are a bit off no one has to freak out. I'm not aiming that at anyone specific, just to everyone in general.
Even if it goes on a bit longer, sometimes the discussion is just as good even if it's a bit off-topic. And a lot of the time it gets burned out, so what's the point of starting a new topic then?
Just my opinion. But I respect that we should put a little more effort into cleaning things up. And I understand about the useless posts that are random nothings if they keep popping up over and over.
Because some posts that are off-topic actually have some substance to it which I think is a different case.
Yeah, I don't mind a bit off-topic, but when I have to wade through a pile of mindless posts to read a few remotely interesting posts, it gets a little annoying.
I don't mind being off topic, just when it gets way too far, then its annoying. When theres a bunch of posts that only contain emicons.. Its gone too far
Well, yeah, I think you guys understand what I'm getting at then.
Hey. We are off topic right now.
Not if I change the name of my post!

Now class it's time to recite the vowels. Repeat after me A, E, I, O, U, and some times Y.
and w
W is not a vowel. ::)
yeah it is, don't you know the rhyme? A E I O U and sometimes Y and W, it's a vowel in words like cwm
Well, maybe in that word, but W is not usually considered a vowel.
Maybe I'll start a poll...
It's not an opinion, it's an English grammatical fact, you can't change it by majority vote ::)
I'm just wondering how many people consider it a vowel. I know it doesn't change the fact that it is one. ::)
I don't consider gravity to be real, so it doesn't apply to me
I've heard of Y but not W but why not.
Wait, Nzone told us the difference between Static/Dynamic Caratization and Round/Flat Charatization, he corrects me on my spelling all the time, and now he's telling us about W being a Vowel. Nzone are you an English Teacher?

lol i didnt know that
but i dont watch dukes of hazard so that could be why
My family used to watch the TV show (that is from the '80's) a lot when it was in reruns here a few years ago :)
I even met a couple of the actors that were on there, actually.
cool!!! wasnt jessica simpson on there at one point (stupid air- headed blonde) anyway
Well, I'm talking more about the original show back in the day.
But yeah, she's in the modern movie remake or whatever. The original cast from the show really didn't like what they did with that movie. And with good reason.
I thought the movie was funny :-\
Never saw it.

I've never seen the show or the movie, but I do own the Gamecube game. Although, I haven't played it much.

I guess it would be to anyone who didn't have knowledge of the previous show. As a separate entity you can take it with a clean view, which is understandable.
From my perspective, I see this movie as changing the heart of what the idea was originally. I mean, I'm not exactly against remakes or using past ideas because
Get Smart seemed genuine.
I was going to watch the movie to see for myself what they did, but I can't do it. The original cast didn't like what the movie was doing, and I guess I feel a certain loyalty/respect for them.
Maybe one day I'll see it and be surprised, but just looking at the casting of Daisy and Uncle Jesse (Jessica Simpson and Willie Nelson) *facepalms*
I've seen the original show too
I haven't seen it either, and I don't want to.

I thought there was a good chance you might've.
Well, whatev. It's all entertainment in the end I guess.

Don't want to see the movie, the show, or both? I don't care either way, just wondering.
I loved the series, seen the couple of movies that the originals played in but didn't like the new movie. Too much naughty stuff in it. :P
The only good thing from that movie is the song "These Boots Are Made For Walking". J/K. Actually, I don't even know if that song is connected to the movie.
