I’ve got to rant here for a minute. Wendy and I were watching TV Saturday night and an ad came on for Superstation TBS’s showing of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring which played Sunday. In the ad, they showed a montage of the hobbit characters Frodo and his friend Sam. Underneath the montage they were playing the song, "Secret Lovers" making the not so subtle inference that Frodo and Sam were gay. Are you serious?! I’m sure TBS was trying to be funny, but the whole thing is an insult to Tolkein and the millions of LOTR fans across the world. TBS has no class, man – no class at all.
