So Disappointed in NBC

Post by Peter »

NBC is showing a new series called The Black Donnellys. I can be found here.

http://www.nbc.com/NBC_First_Look/shows/donnellys/

The real Black Donnellys were a family that were brutally murdered in Canada. I was hoping the new series was about this family as it's a story that should be told.
It can be found at this web site.

http://www.donnellys.com/

So sad that NBC had to rip off and pervert a good story.

I won't be watching.

Its not about the same family though, is it? I mean, I read a little about the Donnelly's in Ontario, but it doesn't seem to be about the same people. The only similarities are the the last name and the Irish background..?

Not to mention, they're not even Black!

i don't think it's a rip off or a perversion, pete. i think its just coincidence. The Black Donnelly's (tv show) is so named because a) the Donnelly's are Irish brothers b) they are "black" sheep, in that they get involved in organized crime.

and if you're really THAT upset with NBC, write them a letter.
Yes? What do [i][b]YOU[/i][/b] want?
