 God vs. NBC
First the Book of Daniel fiasco, now this:
http://www.defamer.com/hollywood/will-g ... 152463.php
"Cruci-fixin's." I have to say, in sharp contrast to most of what Will & Grace has been up to lately...that's pretty funny.
I wish these groups would find something better to do than decide what I can and can not watch.
But, then again...Jason Lee, star of NBC's My Name Is Earl, just got 'chicken pox.' Dare I say....plague? Nah. If there would truly a omnipotent, loving God, he'd go after CBS and Les Moonves, for continued evil-doings far worse than those of the Peacock.

Will & Grace has ALWAYS been concerned about offending people, so yeah, I think they've got a great shot at taking this one down.

Yeah, can I start an advocacy group pushing for the elimination of those that demonstrate a deep hostility toward, oh I dunno, good TV?

You guys remember all the haloopa over God, the Devil, and Bob?
Anyway, if NBC succumbs to this pressure, they've made a big mistake. This is W&G last season anyway, so I doubt they'll do anything.

I wouldn't give in to them if I were NBC. How many Christians actually watch Will & Grace anyway? It certainly won't hurt the ratings.

Man, it's so hard to be a TRUE Christian sometimes when hypocrites like the AFA give us a bad reputation.
I actually think the joke is funny, and fundamentalist groups like the AFA deserve jabs like that; they've totally asked for it with their horrible actions toward other things (including my favorite new show, Book of Daniel).

So NBC is now saying that "Cruci-fixin's" isn't part of the plot at all and that the episode hasn't been written yet.
Riiiiiigghhttt...

Why is NBC being such a chicken? First with Book of Daniel and now this, which is quite baffling since Will & Grace is going off the air this year anyway. At least with a controversial episode it could have lured people back for the last few episodes.
