Barrel Bear, better or worse than Safety Canary?
I didn't really hate it that much. But that could just be me reacting to Allyson's reaction.
I think he wanted her all insane and irrational.
I think he wanted offbeat and quirky. He wasn't counting on schizo.
I'm sad that it was cancelled but I kind of like the completeness of the 13. I fear it could have only gone downhill from there.
This is me.
Yes, Wonderfalls could continue on with what Allyson was talking about. I do think exploring her relationships with family and friends would have been cool. But a lot of the frission of the romantic-comedy part of it wouldn't be present without going the soap opera route.
And, even though I craved knowing what all the accumulated tchotchkes (the ones that Aaron had in his room) said and did (especially the pink poodle purse), I have to say the cryptic tchotchke of the week thing might suck.
I don't have the same hate on for Barrel Bear as I do for certain facets of Totem Mole.
I give Safety Canary and Totem Mole points for having points (although there wasn't much room to see a payoff for Totem Mole). I hate 2 things about Safety Canary -- about everyone getting it on, and casting two actors who look like birds. I hate Totem Mole for not being meta enough to play with the cliché.
I'm not sure who was in Barrell Bear. But I think the main reason I hate it is that there are only thirteen episodes, and one of them has no point? We don't have enough time for that!
Barrell Bear's point was that sometimes you have to sell your soul to escape and is that worth it?
And, by the no point criteria, then is Wound Up Penguin better or worse than Safety Canary/Totem Mole.
What did happen to the girlfriend of Sharon?
Maybe Sharon found about her little moment with the ex-husband and had her deported?

HA! Sharon WOULD totally use her powers for evil.
The Canary kiss?
I'm trying to remember this properly -- but it was after she'd started behaving relationship-erratically, wasn't it?
I mean, I saw him doing a lot of passive-aggressive framing, but essentially of "So, what are you thinking? What did that just mean? I'm pretty sure I know ... or do I?"
I'm not saying I wouldn't have killed him, but I also think Jaye was undatable too.
I thought "Barrel Bear" was going to be the next-to-last 'sode, right after "Totem Mole." And have you seen/read "Barrel Bear?"
