Top 15 Oklahoma’ish News Stories of 2007

For me at least, 2007 has been a pretty crappy year. So for the last six months, I have been eagerly awaiting writing and posting the obligatory "best of" year-end news stories. Enjoy it after the jump...

15. Saving Grace debuts...then asks OKC for money.

When Saving Grace debuted, we thought it was a big deal and kind of cool. Seriously, how many times is a cable crime drama going to be set in our hometown. But after a few episodes we realized the show sucked and reinforced a tremendously terrible stereotype of OKC. Then, just a few months ago, the producers of the show came to town with Holly Hunter and asked for money to possibly film scenes in Oklahoma. Screw that. That's a dumb idea, kind of like building a Bass Pro Shops near downtown. Plus, we're hoping that Grace will accept a higher paying job in Texas like most other Oklahomans.
