Today's role models are a joke.

Ah, sorry about that Miss Q! That was the "Word Censoring" kicking in. I used to have some problems with 'Spam Bots' (particularly 'Porn Bots') on this forum. I added a 'Mod' to the forum software several months ago which has since prevented them from posting their useless garbage here. Anyway, before that was put in place I had to use "Word Censoring" to break their links. One of the links they kept posting was about "Paris Hilton". The word censoring would automatically change that to "New York Hilton" (heh). After I put the fix in place I kind of forgot to remove the word censoring! They have now been removed.
Thanks

It's amazing to see some of the duds in front of TS. Some deserved to be there, but most do not. How did Bob Barker not crack the top 10?
The guy has been a fixture in television for how many decades?

I think it's fair to say we are all a little bit biased here on this subject, but even objectively speaking there is no way TS shouldn't be in the Top 50! The iconic, decade-defining, tv show, all the great TV Movies (the Westerns, Jesse Stone,
Countdown to D-Day),
Friends and now
Las Vegas. Come on, the guy helped define the word "TV Icon"!
