Maybe this is the wrong place to ask this, but...

I haven't read any of the unaired scripts yet. Would you guys recommend reading them now, or waiting for the actually eps to come available. (Which they MUST eventually...Wonderfalls isn't ranked 25th at TVShowsOnDVD.com for nuthin').

Strawberry disappointment.

So having read all nine scripts, where can I start my blood spattered crusade of vengeful violence?

Invisible - the question of whether to read or not is very dependent on your preferences. I usually don't mind being spoiled about anything; I find the anticipation of good lines and clever plot points adds more to my enjoyment than the loss of surpise detracts. At the extreme opposite end of spectrum, some people don't even like to know the cast in advance. Wonderfalls is always full of clever lines and plot twists. There is always the question of how a strange or even apparently evil action will ultimately work out for the best. And lot's of people who turn out to different that you expect or to do stuff you don't expect and then end up having it be completely in character.

You have to decide for yourself what reading about these in advance will do to your enjoyment. You may want to consider that if DVDs ever do come out, it will be a fair amount of time.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

And a given person's response to being spoiled can differ widely depending on the show. I had a "spoil me and die screaming!" policy for Buffy, but I got to third base with Angel spoilers (everything but the finale), and what I've read ahead on Wonderfalls only makes me want to see it more.

JAYE: You should come out with us. I thought we could take her clubbing. MAHANDRA: Baby seals?

Does anyone know whether "Lying Pig" is the last of the 13 episodes? Is that end moment the one Tim keeps mentioning where Caroline's face will break your heart? The NYTimes interview he did seems to indicate that, but maybe not?

For a second I wish the tide would swallow every inch of this city As you gasped for air tonight...

That's what I thought ... but I can't imagine a more heartbreaking moment than how that one ends. Yeesh, what MORE did they do to poor Jaye??

Oh, and in regard to leisure reading - can we take a moment to say SHRIFT ROCKS!

Aww. Thanks, Typo Boy.

And I'll get all of the current available scripts up as soon as I can. Which isn't as soon as I'd like, what with my current 'overtime every week' job sitch.

And as for more episode scripts, I know people are working on it. Whether it actually happens is iffy. But if it does, I'll put 'em up.

Thanks, all! I think I'll wait for now.
