Quote Of The Week
"Back in the late '70s, I created an animated Doonesbury special for NBC. The network declined to order another because of disappointing ratings. The show had 21 million viewers. On an average night, The Daily Show, a huge hit, pulls 1.5 million viewers. It's a different world." -- Garry Trudeau
