| I was looking at that last strip. (It's an ability that I have when I'm drunk and animated. I can transcend cyberspace in my mind. The only trade-off is that this is my only expression.) | |

| Anyway, you were wondering about these new basic cable shows--"Rescue Me" and so forth--that are billed as "provocative" and "daring." But do they really cover any new ground? | |

| Yeah, are the cursing, violence, and sex helping the shows' realism or distracting us from flaws? If you show me a butt am I going to not notice that you're not being true to the character? | |

| No, what I was talking about is that it's not sexy enough. They haven't crossed the line. It's always a dude's butt. They never show nipples or say fuck. It's like watching "Silk Stalkings" again. | |

| Not quite. You don't wait thirty minutes to see a girl's back. Anyway, we need those boundaries. Did you ever think you would be channel-surfing and find a chick getting slammed doggy-style at 9:00? | |

| If it weren't 12:17 on a Sunday and we got high ratings and the sponsors stayed with us, I would slam you doggy-style. Except for the whole having one expression thing. Maybe we do need boundaries. | |
