Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...

Vonnie: If you like intelligent, blackly funny TV, you will love it.

P.M., which Darin Morgan-penned episode did you prefer? The Jose Chung one or the Devils in the Diner one? I thought they were both fantastic, and w/o getting spoilery, do you remember actor Bobby Wingood?

Does anyone know what Darin Morgan's doing these days? I think we should somehow find a way to make a hybrid clone of him and Joss; that would be the TV god.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

It's such an absolute metaphor for what happened to the X-Files in the end.

It all came out of someone's ass?

Hey, I love the Flukeman episode. Poor Darin. That suit must have been hellishly uncomfortable to wear.

Oh, I like that episode, but hardly the best use of Darin's talents.

Devils in the Diner, which was beyond wonderful. I thought the Jose Chung one was uneven and a little overdone. Also, as a semi-coda to JCFOS, not needed.

Worth it for the Duchovny cameo alone. Also, smilin' Frank Black. But I'll agree the Scientology rip was a tad obvious, and conflating it with a Depak Chopra type made no sense.

I always hoped for a reappearance of Yappi as a fake psychic on one of the Mutant Enemy shows.

Heh. I think there was an immense subliminal desire out there for some tangential Buffyverse/X-Files crossover.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

At least we got a couple of X-Files references in Buffy and Angel. Too bad there hasn't been any BtVS reference in TXF.

There are a few X-Files-Buffyverse fics out there. Some of them are pretty good.

Ah well, at least Farscape referenced Buffy. Better that than being forced to watch a late season X-Files episode to hear one fan shoutout.
