Well I might get to "see" this ep before I get home. The tvs at work are tuned to CBS but the sound is off. At least I can stare at Rufus during my last hour of work and then experience the full suckiness of the episode when I watch it later. My curiosity is really piqued at just how bad this is.

This just in from the Associated Press:
After the airing of Thursday night's episode of "Eleventh Hour", the Surgeon General, out of concern for the mental and emotional well-being of all human beings, issued the following orders to the executives of CBS:
All copies of the scripts for the episode of "Eleventh Hour" which aired 3/12/09 are to be brought to a secure government location, shredded and burned. The ashes are to be put into heavy-duty toxic waste drums. Said drums are to be filled with acid and taken to a remote location that will not be disclosed to the public and put into a lead-lined vault that has been placed in a hole of no less than one hundred feet deep. The vault and hole are to be then filled with cement and the entire area for a five mile radius is to be surrounded by a razor wire electric fence. The air space above this area shall be designated as a "no fly zone" for all aircraft.
Because of contractual obligations, the above mentioned episode will be included on the first season dvd of "Eleventh Hour". However, the episode will be an "Easter Egg" and can only be accessed by doing several complicated remote maneuvers. If a viewer is able to access the episode, they will first see a warning stating "Caution! Watching this episode may cause one or more of the following symptoms: frustration leading to rage, an uncontrolable urge to throw heavy objects at your tv, night terrors, complete loss of sanity, banging of head against a wall as you scream 'Why!" over and over again, dry heaves, migraines, as well as yet to be determined mental, emotional, and/or physical issues"
The Surgeon General also recommends that anyone who recorded the episode immediately delete or erase it before it causes permanent damage.
Congress convened an emergency session and formed the "Crimes Against Television" committee. Committee members questioned all those responsible for the production of the episode but no one had a legitimate excuse for the atrocity that was Thursday night's episode. The committee also spoke to the show's stars, Rufus Sewell, Marley Shelton, and Omar Benson Miller, absolving them of any responsibility. The committee even told the actors how much they admired their bravery for not walking off the set day after day as they filmed "one of the most heinous things to ever be witnessed on a television screen." One female committee member told Mr. Sewell that she was especially impressed with his ability to remain "handsome and charming" despite the "god-awfulness" of the episode.
Congress, in an act of full bipartisanship, passed a bill stating the episode shall no longer be known by it's title but as "The Episode Which Shall Not Be Named" for fear the very mention of the original title will cause an outbreak of riots and mayhem. President Obama signed the bill into law admist the cheers of over-joyed "Eleventh Hour" fans who had bravely viewed the episode because of their loyalty to the show and/or to Mr. Sewell. Those responsible for the episode have been warned that if they ever produce something as horrendous as this again, the government will not be responsible for anything that is afflicated upon them by these same fans.
Yes, I hated this episode!

The Surgeon General also recommends that anyone who recorded the episode immediately delete or erase it before it causes permanent damage. Nooooooo! I haven't watched it yet!!! I keep putting it off (you know, like a dental check-up) but I will watch it later. Actually, I am getting a bit worried......you all hated Electro and I didn't think it was that bad.......but I have had a temperature lately.....yes, that must be it....suffering from fever.......so you'll forgive me if I appear to like Olfactus, won't you? Won't you.....*gulp*? PS - anyone else think it even slightly funny that, for an episode dealing with perfume, Rainy mistyped the title of this thread to make it read like she had a cold? No? Okay, just me then....... PPS - very funny, Ambra!

Thanks. I find I'm at my most creative when I'm having my bouts of insomnia. Something about getting only 3 to 5 hours of sleep a night frees my brain.
I just felt so sorry for poor Rufus while I was watching this. While he looked very sexy, the 5 o'clock shadow and the "bed head" hair made me wonder if he was thinking, "This episode is so bad, I'm not even going to bother to shave or comb my hair." I "watched" the episode while I was at work so at least I got to just enjoy looking at Rufus before actually experiencing the full awfulness of it.
