5 ugliest women on TV

The first three are Rosie O'Donnell and the next two are Joan Rivers. Ann Coulter has the ugliest soul of any woman on tv, but I don't know if that counts.

Top 5 Great Books Made Into Horrible Movies

1) "Slapstick of Another Kind"....the obscene Jerry Lewis crime against Vonnegut's "Slapstick."

2) "Son of the Morning Star" Evan S, Connel's sadly poetic overview of the plains Indians and the Custer fight, transformed into a low budget, badly acted television movie.

3) "Excaliber" Malory's classic Le Morte D'Arthur emerged as a visualy blinding, cranky spirited, confusing magic show.

4) "Gods and Generals"...Jeff Shaara's excellent novel of the early Civil War years turned into an endurance contest of stiff acting, simplistic scripting, and coma inducing pageantry.

5) "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy"....Douglas Adams intelligent and funny series which has emerged first as a so-so mini-series and then a pretty awful movie.


Well ding dang damn.....happened again. Okay:
