what's the point? we already know how he would have done it....evidently he would have stabbed Nicole and then turned on Ron when he came upon the scene and stabbed him too since that's exactly what he did.

This guy really gets under my skin, he's a pathetic excuse for a human being.

It's obscene that he'll be making millions off this.

The only good thing about that is hopefully a large chunk of that will go to the Goldman family based on the $33.5 mil civil suit judgment that's still gone largely unpaid (California law protects pensions from being used to satisfy judgments, so Simpson is protected from using his $4 mil a year NFL pension towards that). Capitalizing financially off a murder to pay a civil suit based on that murder is a cruel twist in its own right, but still...

Barbara Walters said on The View today that ABC turned it down.

If that's true, good for them. I'd be pretty shocked if that was confirmed, given that this will be a pretty good bet to pull in decent (possibly big) ratings.

Is there any chance he'll re-enact the murders using Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly as stand-ins?

Nah Mr. Coulter would fight him of with a few swift kicks to the groin and O'Reilly would hit him with a loofa... or a falefel.

Quite frankly, YES! This is sponsor suicide for any company that runs ads during this show. In fact I would be very surprised if this wasn't turned down by other networks, assuming they had the opportunity placed under their noses.

FOX claims they're not paying O.J. for the interview - of course the free publicity they're giving him for his book is another story.

I thought that was ABC (they showed the fight where he bit Holyfield's ear first, then an interview with Tyson)

Actually, I think they can go for a Federal civil rights violation case. As in the case of the Rodney King beating, see here.

Hopefull he'll just keep talking himself right into prison.

No, they can't.

This would be a lot better if Borat was conducting the interview.

"So everyone say the Jews, they kill your wife?"
"No, the Juice."
"Right, the Jews..."
"No, the Juice. That's me."
"Whaaat? You are jew?"

According to a story I just saw on my local CBS affiliate's noon news, NBC turned it down.

This is so exciting. It's like a prelude to great new hits like "Dancing With the Slashers" and "Who Wants to Marry OJ Simpson."

Seriously, I think it's great that OJ has written a how-to book for wife-killing. This is something that the market has been missing for a long time.

I don't believe for a minute that any other major network but FOX would broadcast it. I would have thought that FOX would even turn it down, but since they are so lowly thought of anyway, it can't do that much more damage.

I realize Fox shows some bad shows, but wow. I can't believe someone would approve showing this.

They should get Bob Saget to do the voice-over.
