Anyone catch this show's debut on Fox last night?
Being that I live down here, the show absolutely drove me crazy with all of the stereotypes about New Orleans life in general, from all aspects.
I was curious how the show was perceived by someone other than a native New Orleanian.

I almost watched it just because of the name. I live in Kernersville, NC... aka K-Ville, aka K-Vegas.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
