Janeane Garofalo Unpiloted

Authored by Michael Pate on June 14th, 2003 at 10:44 PM

Janeane Garofalo has a (TV) pilot going forward. These ugly-mouthed people like to think they are more powerful than they are. - Mike Farrell, April, 2003

ABC realized they would waste money developing a show around Ms. Garofalo when the American public would not watch it and announced they’d scrapped the project entirely. Now that the news is out, Garofalo, who is no longer ebullient, gloating or boastful, has gone on the offensive yet again, this time accusing the president of putting the kibosh on her show. Bill Zwecker of the Chicago Sun-Times interviewed a “source” close to Garofalo who told him that she ”was furious by the last minute change and believes it’s yet another example’ of a network bowing to the perceived power of the Bush administration… “Janeane is convinced her politics and all the hate mail the right-wing lobby stirred up during the war is behind all this.” - Shayne Winslow
