Jerry Springer: the Opera

I watched the first three minutes of JS: Da O out of a sense of civic duty,
but by then decided I was bored out of my skull, and left, so I never even
heard the first "fuck".
I bopped in for a moment in the middle, the TV still being on as Darling
Only Son was supposed to be watching for both of us.
... the middle wasn't any better than the beginning, and by then DOS had
fallen asleep on the couch.
Afterwards, discussing it (slightly abstractly, as neither Andrew nor I
seemed to have managed to catch more than five minutes of the Entire Damned
Thing) we agreed that maybe it worked better on stage than on the box.
Maybe.
