Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Jesse -- did B&N ever affiliate us?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No, they hate us.

Hmmph. Tossers.

Even better, I couldn't remember what had happened, so I filled out the thing to be affiliated again, and they were just like, "Um. No. You tried this already. GO AWAY." Stupid Barnes & Noble.

I sent her email. I'll probably reply in-thread, too, just to be on the safe side.

Wacky, wacky, wacky.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

To go right back, I would support any suggestion of a Veronica Mars thread. Not just cos it's ace, but because we should be discussing it: it's the first really convincingly post-Buffy (as opposed to sub-Buffy) show, it's nakedly Buffy-inspired, next year it will have 2 main cast Buffy alumni. It'll never be exactly because the only really real Buffy is really real Buffy and she's gone, but if we're going to be called Buffistas we should, surely, have a place to talk about VM.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Seconded.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

the only really real Buffy is really real Buffy and she's gone

Jim is telling knock-knock jokes....

Anyhow, my feeling on a VM thread is that I'd like one, but I'm also more than willing to wait and see how much traffic Natter gets once the second season starts. I know a decent handful of Buffistas picked up VM over the summer, so there may be enough VM traffic to warrant a thread.

Up with the sun

Is there any benefit to waiting a few weeks into the season? I'm thinking of The O.C., here -- the first season got a lot of posts, the second season sucked didn't seem to generate as much discussion.

I agree that VMars seems to be a worthy heir to Buffy -- I'm catching up during the summer reruns, and yowsa, that is one solid show.

Edit: X-post with Teppy.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Not a VM watcher (...yet), but I do think a dedicated thread would make a lot of sense. So if Jim's proposing, I'm seconding.

edit: of course, waiting is also fine by me.
