Melissa and Tammy and Popular

Many of the best and most ground breaking shows get canceled way before their prime....but let me back up a minute.
Today on CNN.com I saw that Melissa Etheridge and her partner Tammy have split after 9 years. This got me thinking about one of my most favorite tv shows "Popular". This was a show about a group of high school students, the populars and the ones on the other side. This show was funny and well written. Tammy played Nicole the mean conniving cheerleader who took her popularity seriously and woe to the person who gets in her way. This show featured a lot of great actors such as Leslie Bibb (Iron Man 1&2, See Spot Run), Sara Rue (Less Than Perfect), Carly Pope (24).
Tammy's character was mean and her lines were biting but hilarious....for example:

"Sure, I'll put Carmen on the squad. When hell freezes over and/or Melissa Joan Hart gets nominated for an Oscar."

"Sugar D., stop staring at Mary Cherry like she's a Hot Pocket."

"Maybe 10 years of vomiting has ruptured your ear drums."

If you have NetFlix, you must rent this show and watch. It was truly awesome. StumbleUpon
