For your consideration: "Classy-dirty."

On the hot seat:  Creator and stars
of 2 Broke Girls.
In a verbal brawl with teevee critics, Michael Patrick King, creator Sex and the City, fought off charges of offensive stereotyping and crudeness in his new show, 2 Broke Girls.  Are all these new female-funny shows as crude and ethnically insensitive as critics claim?  More to the point, are they funny?   I will not wade in.  But when King defended 2 Broke Girls as "classy-dirty" it was just sad.  

Go ahead, Mr. King, let it out.  Say it.  Sob it.  You miss Samantha Jones.  We all do.  Even those mean old critics would cry with you.

Just don't ever say "classy-dirty" again.
