From Mala Bhattacharjee

I know All My Children, a show shot in New York City, with a cast and crew made up of many lifelong New Yorkers, had the best of intentions remembering the horrific tragedy of 9/11 six years after the fact, but we could have done without Colby and Sean's new pals weighing in at the Comeback. "It was like a video game," said one of the newbies of the real-life events. A video game? Really? Which one would that be? Super Mario Kart? Grand Theft Auto? Sonic the Hedgehog?

Sure, it was just one thoughtless line out of several touching ones delivered by Tad and Krystal, amongst others, but on a day like this, where the loss is still immediate and visceral for many Americans, it's one line too many.
