There is a website attached to this forum. Since I’m being slightly sarcastic I’ll give you the answer:

Do you want fries with that?
Meooww! Saucer of milk for table no.5! - just kidding.
I can’t blame Scrum myself, as I am guilty of the same thing (as anyone who has seen my recent US News & World Report post, will realise).
However, I found this while hunting down All-things-Elmore. It’s mildly related, so I thought it would belong here.
Elmore Leonard Gives Thumbs Up to ‘Karen Sisco’
22 January 2004 (from http://www.imdb.com)
“Quirky novelist Elmore Leonard, who created the Karen Sisco character in his novel Out of Sight (Jennifer Lopez played her in the film version), has welcomed ABC’s decision to return the show in a more favorable time slot. In an interview with the Chicago Sun-Times, Leonard commented: “I’m optimistic. ... In the right time slot, it should work. If it follows Alias, I think that’s a good possibility.” Last season, ABC pitted the show against Law & Order, which nettled TV critics, who had heaped praise on it, but recommended that it be given a “safer” time period in which to establish itself. Asked whether the series captured Leonard’s distinctive voice, he replied, “It did at times, definitely, and at other times, they’re busy making a TV show and I just watch it.” He was critical of the producers for dressing the Sisco character, a federal marshal played by Carla Gugino, in tank tops, and added: “I thought she was somewhat promiscuous.”
