"Jeers to Angela Lansbury"?????


My mom was reading in a magazine where they have a section for "cheers and jeers" (I can't remember what magazine it was) and one of it said, "Jeers to Angela Lansbury, she knows what she did". And that was it. Um..... what the heck are they talking about?

that was tv guide, and I was wondering the same thing. What a STUPID article!

You don't just go out and say 'we hate someone' with no reason why.

Exactly! That was so frustrating. My mom and I love Angela Lansbury and have been fans of her's for years. And we were thinking, what the hell happened?

Okay, well I actually looked up Tv Guide to see if it would give some kind of a clue as to what they were even talking about. And pretty much the only thing I could find that MIGHT be what some people are "mad" about, was an article where she said that the idea for a Murder She Wrote reboot was a mistake, after hearing about plans that it was going to happen. But that was back in 2013 so I don't know. But still, if that's what they're talking about, that's the most ridiculous thing ever. 

I sent off an email to TVGuide, stating Jeers to their Cheers-Jeers section, followed up with, you KNOW what you did!

Let's see if they get it.

Haha awesome! And I bet MANY other people sent emails as well. I mean come on, they HAD to have thought that people would be asking them what the hell they were even talking about. So either they are really stupid (wouldn't surprise me) OR they did that on purpose to see how many people would email them. If the latter, than that is a really lame excuse to start some controversy.

TV Guide has become bird cage liner. I'm letting my subscription lapse.

i wondered why they said that also...if someone is going to attack a 89 year old legend, at least have the balls to say what you are criticizing her about...what a bunch of wussies...tvguide has gone so far down hill anyway, they aren't much better than a sleazy tabloid...i let my subscription run out years ago and there's no going back :) if they were attempting to make ms. Lansbury look bad, they failed...they only succeeded in making themselves look bad...

Honestly didn't know T.V. Guide still exists.
