Lovesick, my Ass!
[NAFDA] Discussion of all Wonderfalls episodes, including the unaired ones. When discussing Wonderfalls, anything goes. Safe-words and white fonting are not needed. Spoilers for other shows are verboten. Posts with offers to buy, sell, or trade copies of episodes will be deleted.
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.
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.
People who read scripts, know what they're getting into, and they like being spoiled. I don't understand that feeling myself, but it's their choice, so I don't see how posting the scripts would be a bad thing. It's fairly easy to stay unspoiled if that's what you want.
And really, except for one specific moment in the ep, I don't see what so desperately needs to be protected anyway. I mean, it's not like Jaye's gonna *keep* the baby. ;-)
don't worry, j/k.
If you're trying to avoid finale spoilers, then it's probably best to avoid this thread since we were discussing it pretty widely.
I was avoiding this thread for a few days, but I saw the finale this evening (and loved it), so I'm in the clear now.
I'm asking people to avoid discussing it on the SaveWonderfalls boards, because it seems the majority of people (even in our spoiler section) don't want to know how the show ends, so I don't want to risk spoiling them. More importantly, though, Bryan occasionally checks those boards. Since he asked me to keep it quiet, I wouldn't feel right letting people on my forums discuss it.
It's fairly easy to stay unspoiled if that's what you want.
Hmm. I've never made it through a season unspoiled of Buffy or Angel. I was spoiled ahead of time for the remaining Wonderfalls eps, even though I never touched a script.
I wouldn't call it fairly easy.
FWIW, I would like to be spoiled for the finale. But I love spoilers.
since season five of Buffy i have been unspoiled except by jackasses that would come to beta and spoil guest stars and the like. i was adamant about not being spoiled for it. with Wonderfalls i didn't know when, if ever, i'd see the eps and i couldn't help myself. i read all the scripts and all the posts here. i stayed away when Kat warned about finale spoilers, but then i figured what the hell. i already knew everything else. *shrug*

Okey. But he didn't tell me not to. So there. Said with love, of course, because I get that. I was offered the chance to recap all the episodes for Popgurls, which I would really immensely love to do (because, hey, love Popgurls, love writing about something I love, and need a cool project). But I ran it by Tim and he said no, so I'm not. Because it was Tim. So I get where you're coming from on your board, feeling like you made a personal promise and sticking to it.
But here we have a spoiler thread, and so, Jaye and Eric get together, Heidi-ho leaves town and divorces his sorry ass, Majandra and Aaron come out of the secret affair closet, and the wax lion lives.
