I see dead people; it's the sweeps!

TV Squad talks about the ABC bird flu movie scaring us even further...



"Lately, there isn't a day that goes by where we don't here something about the bird flu that may, or may not, be passed along to humans. Not to get too freaky, but experts are saying that a worst case scenario would be 20 million Americans affected, 2 million dead, schools and businesses shutdown to prevent the spread of the disease. So, you would think that the networks' entertainment divisions would give us something light and fluffy to keep our minds off of this fact.

Um, apparently not."

Check out the comments and the upcoming made for TV movie such as:

According to the World Health Organization Bird Flu (Avian flu H5N1) has caused the confirmed deaths of 113 people WORLD WIDE in the last 3 years. Over 36,000 people die of Seasonal Flu EVERY YEAR in the United States alone.

People, get over it. It's a movie, therefore, I hope it's entertaining. If along the way I learn something, great...if not....just show me a good time with an interesting plot.

AND

Don't sweat the bird flu. It's probably more dangerous to talk on your cell phone while driving. If you like to worry, worry about that.

As for me, I worry more about eating undercooked chicken or another Grizzly Burger from Shoneys.
