This is so probably yesterday's news, but has anyone heard about the "comedy" on ABC called 'Work It Out' or something like that about guys crossdressing to work?

Is it just me or is this not a funny concept at all?

Did the pitch meeting go like this?

Smith: "We're running out of ideas, Boss? We were thinking a show about making fun of crossdressers"

Boss: "Great idea, Smith! It's never been done before"

Jones: "Wait a minute, Boss! Aren't we in Hollywood supposed to be on the cutting edge of sensitivity?"

Boss (Lighting cigar): "Don't be ridiculous, Jones. Crossdressing is FUNNY! We all know it"

Jones: "But isn't the suicide rate for transgender people and crossdressers astronomical compared to the general population?"

Boss: "Who cares. I think it's funny, and I know what will sell! This can't miss!! Besides, as long as we keep saying we're sensitive to the issues, people will believe it! Har har har. Besides, I'm hearing a pitch for a sitcom based on the 'Killing Fields" of Cambodia at two. Get back to work."

Wonderful. Here's to hoping this crapfest dies a horrible death.

Just sayin'
