    I remember back when that movie was in the public domain and you could see it 50 times before Christmas. Now NBC hoards it until Christmas Eve. When I was a kid, I used to watch “Miracle on 34th Street,” but that’s been remade a few times. The only remake of “It’s a Wonderful Life” I know of is the strange version with Marlo Thomas as a female George Bailey.

    NBC apologizes to Bachmann for Fallon song choice

    GOP Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann received an apology from an NBC executive after an off-color song was played during her appearance on Jimmy Fallon’s “Late Night,” her spokeswoman said late Wednesday.

    The Minnesota congresswoman received a personal letter from NBC’s vice president for late night programming, Doug Vaughan, a day after she appeared on the show. As Bachmann walked onstage, the show’s band had played a snippet of a 1985 Fishbone song entitled “Lyin’ Ass B—-.”

    Vaughan wrote that the incident was “not only unfortunate but also unacceptable,” Bachmann spokeswoman Alice Stewart told The Associated Press. She said Vaughn offered his sincerest apologies and said the band had been “severely reprimanded.”

      Unless reprimanded means fired, it’s not enough.

      House bands are a dime a dozen.

      Jimmy Fallon poked Bachmann again last night. He told a joke about a giant tea bag that was in the news. He said, funny, when I google giant tea bag, I get something very different. The crowd cheered knowing full well who he was talking about. The band hooted as well.

      Clearly the insult was on purpose, and Jimmy and the band knew what they were doing and aren’t a bit sorry.

        I remember the last funny show I watched, MadTV did amazing parodies of Obama, and they weren’t mean spirited. I always found it curious they were cancelled after BO got elected 😦

        Seriously? Did you see it, or did you read about it? Is there a link? I can’t find anything by googling.

      Ed Morrissey made some good points about double standards…

      Color me clueless about talk show intro songs, but always thought the celebrity/guest got to pick the music they’re most identified with or a favorite?

      About time. But I need more details on “severely reprimanded.” Being yelled at by an executive is not enough. Something has to be at stake, and lost. Only way people learn.

    Packer fans are thankful today. Detroit fans not so much.

    BTW – I am trying to avoid blogging about politics today.

    YMMV
