It has good parts, Burrell. Unfortunately it also has somewhat infuriating parts. At least to some of us.

Barrel Bear is the Rue McClanahan one.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Good parts, yes. See, that's why I want to watch it. So much fun. I find the series very satisfying.

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

It has good parts, bad parts, and no point whatsoever. Or home.

But the metaphor line makes me giggle even now.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

We likely won't get DVDs for a long time, if at all, and so, I think it's unfair to not allow people to experience the story at least in script form.

See, I think we're damned lucky to have gotten the scripts -- it's not fair to expect them.

Can't speak for The Fuller's motivation, though. Maybe he's incredibly naïve, or knows something we don't, or is on the crack of megalomania.

Maybe they're hiding Barrel [edit: thanks, Lori] Bear because it's not that good.

I'm sitting here wondering what metaphor line in Totem Mole, but you changed 'sodes on me.

And now I'm giggling, too.

It's one L in Barrel. Yes it looks weird, but it looks weird and is also wrong with two.

No, see, if the scripts are being held because Fuller says so, and for no other reason, then, well, fuck Fuller.

Are we allowed to have scripts posted on the internet?

He may be being pissy, but his pissiness just so happens to align with legality. I may be being too glass-half-full here, but I still think what we got was lucky.

Without 20th's permission? Nope.

Yep. But since the cup runneth over, why hide it under a bucket? "Nothing to see here, move along."

Like I said, chances are slim to nil that the story will be shown. Not holding my breath for DVDs.

I'm coming not from the intellectual property perspective because of that. I knew what was doing in the unaired Firefly's, for example, but since they were coming to DVD in less than a year, why spoil?

In this case, I feel like Fox stole the end of the story, took all the toys and went home.

Legal Schmeagle Beagle. EVERYTHING else is available, now we're just gonna hold back HOW IT ENDS?

Isn't that against the Geneva Conventions or something?
