Haven't there been a ton of movies lately with that same plot?  28 Days Later, I Am Legend and Doomsday come to mind.  Then, of course, there's all the Night of the Living Dead sequels.  And none of those deadly viruses that get you within seconds has ever actually happened.  Maybe the presence of Matt Damon in the movie will get those soccer moms to take it seriously.

More sensationalized crap, just advertised on a Dr. Oz promo for tomorrow:
 
"Your genitals are aging faster than the rest of your body!"
 
Um, yeah, I imagine that the things down there would look a little more wrinkly after you've been sitting a few minutes.  A few shots of botox should smooth them up nicely....  LOL

All this quack does is make hypochondriacs out of people and I hate it. I work in a pharmacy. You don't know how much self restraint we have to use not to roll our eyes and scream when people come up to the counter, asking one of us or a pharmacist if we carry some obscure herb/vitamin/dried goat nipples because they saw it on Dr. Oz.

Next on Dr. Oz
 
  Watch me make you hate your favorite game shows after I shamelessly rip them off and turn them into a lameass health quiz.  Also, I will scare you into running down to the health food store to pick up expensive maracaibo zit juice.  Do it OR YOU WILL DIE!

My aunt, whom I love dearly, watches Dr. Oz.  He had a show about getting rid of belly fat.  All it takes is two drops of licorice extract and one brown seaweed capsule per day - you will lose a pound of belly fat a week.  Even if I eat cheeseburgers every night for dinner?

It just amazes me the level of stupidity Oz panders to with his "guilt trips".  For example, this advice he gave the other day:
 
  "Eat and drink something 15 minutes before you go to a party (shows a bag of trail mix squirrel crap) so that you won't eat or drink as much at the party."
 
Jeez, that kind of "advice" kind of kills the whole point of going to a party in the first place, doesn't it?  Might even get you "disinvited" the next time because the host thinks you're snubbing the spread she went to a lot of effort to put out.  Can't let yourself go and relax your diet for one night?  Then you don't deserve to have fun....  LOL

I had to change the channel a few days ago when he had the audience members smelling their own urine samples.

He also had a promo for a show about diagnosing your health problems by inspecting your poop.  The ad alone was TMI.  I didn't tune in for that one....

Tuesday's episode has Oz with a half dozen extremely obese women he wants to help lose weight.  The promo shows him saying "If any of you do not want my help, I want you to leave the studio now."  Like, hello!?  They're so big they can't move on their own!  I kid you not they probably needed a forklift to move them onto the ultra-reinforced couches they were sitting on.  Apparently, at least one of them didn't want his help, but I'm (not) going to tune in to see if she heaved herself out of the building like a beached pinniped....

Quote there was an old country horse doctor with a bum leg who had a veterinary practice nearby.
 
There's something extremely hilarious about this...
