This November 27 and 29 Fox airs the OJ-sponsored special, OJ Simpson: If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened. We’ll tune in for the same reason you’d stop in traffic to watch a grotesque accident or drug bust – how can you not?
In two hours OJ gets to let his imagination run wild with Judith Regan (who’s in charge of his book deal) over how he would have done Nicole and Ron in if – that is, if – he actually committed the murders we all know and believe our smiling football hero didn’t commit.
“This is […] the definitive last chapter in the Trial of the Century,” says Mike Darnell, who’s Fox’s executive VP of alternative programming. Alternative. Yeah, that’s a handy label.
Steve puts it most aptly: “Nothing like admitting guilt without admitting while admitting you’re not admitting what you already did!” And if you can follow that sentence, maybe you should have been in court trying to piece Cochran out. – Contributed by Angela Natividad
