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

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

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

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

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

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?

I think it's time for those who have seen the show to begin recapping it. Cause that at least kinda works some of it out, yes?

Well there werre also special circumstances involved that precluded spoiler spreading. Plus I know I was only spoiled for Trash and Message. And the Trash spoiler was just a leetle one.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

If a recap happened to show up on say spoiler slayer, that wouldn't upset me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

well, given the news...I can wait if all this shit gets nailed down by Christmas!

Yay.

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with meaning? What does that mean?

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

Bryan told me, specifically, not to spoil people for the finale, because he wanted everyone to be surprised by the ending if he got the show on cable/DVDs. Because of that, I asked people on the SaveWonderfalls boards not to spoil it, either... which I think is a good idea because many people don't want to know how the series ends (even though they read the other available scripts). I don't think he's deliberately keeping the script from getting online or anything, though -- he didn't mention anything about that.

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.

I guess he knew something we didn't... and now that we're getting DVDs, have some people's feelings changed? Would you rather wait until December and see those two episodes, or do you still want to read the scripts?

I'm kind of on the fence when it comes to spoilers. I like being surprised (so I skipped all the finale posts in this thread until after I'd seen it), but I'm also terribly impatient and like to know what's coming (and watch other people's reactions). I guess it depends on the episode -- I tend to avoid finale spoilers for any show.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Me, I read a couple scripts, and I'm not sorry I did, but now that I know we're getting DVDs in a reasonably short time (maybe I'm just old, but six-eight months doesn't seem like much to me anymore) I'd rather wait and see the show as it was intended to be seen, and be as unspoiled as possible.

Not that I'm running away from spoilers, though. I mean, I've kinda got the gist of it already.
