A "Dream" Dies,.....

Wel,..it appears eating cockroaches, stabbing contestants in the back, and being the minion of a multi-billionaire has "trumped" one of the few decent shows on TV.

Of course, why watch a show about a moral, Catholic family from the 60s (its set in Philly, which is an added plus) when you can have the 21st-Century equivalent of Rome's Bread and Circuses.

While NBC hasn't "officially" confirm this, American Dreams star Tom Verica e-mailed the local Philly papers (he's a Philly native) telling them he received word last week.

This is a link to the e-mail:

It remains to be seen if CBS will renew "Joan of Arcadia" (another show feauring a Catholic family) for another season.
