Yes, the gimmick sucks.  

They had Duncan Sheik do Bobby Darin a few weeks
back, and the portrayal was unfavorable in many
ways.  I have to laugh, though...the Bobby Darin
fan list went NUTS, boycotting advertisers and
mounting a huge letter writing campaign.  I just
didn't care enough...

How can shows like Futurama and Andy Richter
Controls the Universe get cancelled, but this
crappy show continues!?  I know...different
networks...but jeesh.
