Wow, thanks Plei!
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

That's "Eternity," but yeah.
D'oh!!! smacks forehead
So it irks me greatly that Joss was taken by some huge surprise. Why? They barely squeaked by to get this one.
Their ratings did improve this year, right? That's the only thing I can think of that would make him think he had a better chance of renewal.
He was also probably just talking some residual smack over the whole WB/Buffy kerfuffle, now that he has nothing to lose. Lord knows that "Thank you" note after the episode made ME (as in I, not M.E.) want to slap a few WB executives around.

I think it's reasonable to assume that if the ratings go up, the show stays on the air.
Networks are reasonable?
I'm so cynical that it's difficult for me to not raise an eyebrow. Maybe I'd be more hopeful if it were my baby. I thought it was a crapshoot re: renewal, and although saddened for the crew, not surprised, or even pissed off.

Why not for Lindsey, then?
Others have said it, but, hey! I've caught up!
Lindsey had his redemption. Sometime since Dead End , though, he gave it up and went back to the dark side.

Oh. I'm dumb. That makes much sense, then.

What is even happening?
Oh. I'm dumb. That makes much sense, then.
Not dumb, just new. You can't be born knowing everything.
I just thought she was divine.
Of course she is.
