I knew there was a reason I dont watch that show.

I used to really like Cold Case until they did a "serial killer decides to come clean because he's got tremors and thinks that's a sign that the end is near and his MS is going to kill him now" episode.

Now I only watch it occasionally, if there isnt anything else on. It usually gets preempted for sports anyways.

I think the only time I've even seen a tv show portray MS halfway intelligently was an episode of the tv show Fame from over 20 years ago. (it's on Hulu...I cant remember the episode name)

It ticks me off when a tv show uses MS as a plot device, shows that they didnt even look it up on WebMD or Wikipedia to even find out what the actual symptoms are...

I'm still ticked off at the Ophra (sp?) episode that Montel was on recently. Didnt even watch it, but keep seeing posts on another forum from newbie MSers who are freaking out because they've got The Hug and they think that means they're about to die.
