bad idea hide « show »

poor merlin olsen, he went from being on little house on the prarie, to this steaming pile of junk. i guess it was a fairly good family program, but to me it was just dumb. but it was in no way as crappy as aaron's way. i am not suprised that merlin has not worked since.

It was OK. Not good but just OK. hide « show »

It was OK. Not good but just OK. At times, Father Murphy really bores the hell out of me but there were many savoring moments that made me watch it til the very end. Recommended only if you have time to kill.The story of this show is ok, but no way to say "This is nice".
