mandy patinkin? The guy's very flexible whether it be TV, film or broadway. I have the original soundtrack where he was the lead in "Sunday in the Park With George", good stuff.

Heck, if Bob Dole can pimp Viagra, why can't Mandy Patinkin pimp Crestor? :)

That guy is awesome. I saw him about a year ago. He is funny and talented. Oh, and the doc says that I have to take Lipitor or Crestor or some crap like that.

I'd like to see them pull prescription drug advertisements from TV altogether.

i dont think he supports 'legal' drug dealers peddling thier wares on TV that children and impressionable people have access too. Besides that though they censor tv all the time already.

He should have gotten at least a nomination for best supporting actor for his work in Princess Bride. He RULED in that movie.

Ah, so any sexual suggestiveness should be banned, too. Right?

Where does it end?

And who gets to be the elite who decides what the unwashed, stupid masses may see?

Patinkin is largely the inspiration for my vocal style. An awesome singer and performer.

TV is already censored, regardless of whether or not I support it.

Don't put words in my mouth, if you please.
I support self-censorship. I obviously would like to not see ads for pornography or sexual aids during the saturday morning cartoons.
