She's written and acted to be the character you want bad things to happen to. It's perversely satisfying that she just. won't. die.

I think the actress is OK, it's just an AWFUL part. I can't think of ANYONE who could redeem some of the stupidity that is Kim Bauer. Although it would be fun to watch Judi Densch try.

The early reports I've read say Arrested Development ain't coming back. I hope yours are right.

"The power of Opie compels you!!! The power of Opie compels you!!!"

I would love to tell Fox where to stick it, but I've been watching The Simpsons, Arrested Development, and the teevee heroin that is The OC. T'would make me sad to see Arrested Development go. Maybe they could film a new opening with Jason Bateman running in the rain.......

Yeah, it's time for bed now.

Which is exactly how Elisha Cuthbert wants you to feel.

GAH. I just watched the Angel finale. I went from snarking at the unfinished effects to incredibly depressed it was over in about a second and a half.

I miss my show.

>Duchovny is east coast, and Gillian Anderson is general mix, since she spent much of her childhood in England and Minnesota. This is probably why a lot people just guess she's Canadian.

Michigan, not Minnesota. Her early childhood was in England, middle and high school in MI and college in Chicago.

Speaking of X-Files... I just watched "The Making of The Truth " on the season 9 DVDs. Adam Baldwin is funny. (And you thought I was off topic!)

Right. I flatly refuse to allow such paltry things as network schedules and spoler-free convictions to deprive me of all the end of thread limerick fun. Nuts to that.

Fourteen hearts lie on the floor
A confused man stares at a door
Then off comes his jewelery
And end to tomfoolery
A beginning to the settling of scores

So this beautiful girl named Cordelia
Can someone tell me what's the dealia?
From the Queen of Mean
to two romances obscene
At least she got one good ep for a 'See ya'

Fred's insides were burned into smoke
By The Thing Buried Under The Oak
She asked 'Why can't I stay?'
But she had to make way
For The Thing That Wears Fred Like A Cloak

A Limerick's the appropriate form
For discussing this green fellow, Lorne
Wit and style aplenty
but in a deeper sense? Empty
Now the norm for that poor bastard Lorne

A vampire named Angel or Angelus
By either name apparently dangerous
Is he all set to mangle?
Or just working an angle
To clean up the streets of Los Angeles

Way back, Spike was evil indulgent
Even now, not big with atonement
But I spy with my eye
A worse poet than I
With verse cromulently effulgent

There once was ponce nemed Wesley
'Til the Council came over all testy
Fired, tortured, betrayed
Sleep deprived 'til he raved
Now he staggers toward bloody destiny

(Yeah. He's so very, very dead.)

Entertainment Weekly--what? It was in teh break room, it's not like I buy the thing--has an interview with Joss. He says mean things about Fox and the WB, and he's happy about the Serenity movie, but he seems fairly resigned to nothing else happening with the Buffyverse other than an animated series maybe. This is depressing, along with DB and others talking about things they won't do and all their plans for moving on etc. Yes, I know the way of the world, yes, I know actors need to work, but ...

It hurts that it's almost over, OK?

What's wrong with buying EW? It's a fun mag.

But wasn't this the article where he slags modern novels?

I don't remember anything about novels.

Shows and magazines dedicated to entertainment make me twitch. It was the only thing with words, though, other than a local religious magazine, and I needed words. Word-withdrawal is a nasty ailment.
