Haven't seen it, what's it about? Just him at college, is he really attending?

The latest show I am starting to like is 'Hogan knows best'
mostly because of the daughter!! :)

I'm glad someone posted about this show. UNL is my alma matter and I've been watching the show with great excitement and anticipation. Of course his attendance last year created quite a stir in this small part of the world, and now that the show is airing a lot of people are talking about it. I saw him march at halftime last year during a football game and he did very well. My friend from Colorado was in town and he was very impressed that Tommy Lee was in attendance that day and even playing with the band.I'm really looking forward to the episode that shows him on the field.
BTW, the hot tutor is dating a Husker football player (imagine that) and she is now in med school. I wouldn't mind having her as my doctor :bigwink:

Oh man, I missed it? It was my friend's b-day and we went out for drinks. I will have to catch it next week if they rerun the episode.

I watched a news report about that and it was talking about some students from there who thought that it was degrading to the school.

I know people were concerned about how they would portray the state before they started filming the show because well, it's Nebraska, and people have stereotypes that we are just a bunch of farmers and rednecks (partially but not entirely true) :)
The media often tries to portray the Midwest a certain way, just like they do with the Northeast and West Coast, but they typically make the Midwest look much worse than it is while glamorizing other areas.

As far as degrading the school, I'm not sure how the students felt. I'm unsure how the show could degrade the school other than by inaccurately portraying it. Maybe that was their concern, I don't know.

Being a current resident of the "mid-west" and having lived in Nebraska, I can personally attest to the accuracy of the stereotypes.. Nebraska is nothing but one huge, flat field with a rare but occasional tree to block the wafting smell of cow shit across the acres of empty farmland. But I'll just stick to teh good things about Nebraska for now.. :)

Remember, if the average IQ is 100, that means half the people out there are under that score.. which should really worry you. :D
