Aw, that makes it almost tempting to go to Comic-Con.
Ditto that. I had assumed Comic-Con was all about comics. Silly me.
Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think
it was bad; it might have been Latin.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Dead Like Me is pretty awesome. I think I actually found George more likable than Jaye. Okay, no, I did find George more likable than Jaye. Though I can't decide which show is better. Hmm.

Craves Dead Like Me on dvd even more.
I've only seen the 4 Fox-run eps of Wonderfalls so far, but I already find Jaye more likeable than George.

Huh. I feel like George appreciates everything a lot more than Jaye does. I mean, she's got the whole death thing to help her. But Jaye is more...the words that come to mind are "abrasive" and "acerbic." Four or five episodes into DLM, I pretty much forgot how similar George was to Jaye. She also gets the benefits of voiceovers, which let us hear what she's learned about the world. Hm. I think George may have an unfair advantage over Jaye.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
And, you know- dead. She's got the pity thing working for her. To accuratly gauge the two, you'd have to kill Jaye and see how she deals with it.
Of course, we are talking about Tim. Jaye's death may have been the planned season 2 arc.

well, George got on my nerves in the beginning with her unwillingness to deal with being a reaper. She kept acting like she was killing people.

Hey. New board.
Jaye's death may have been the planned season 2 arc.
Awww.... now I want it even MORE.

Totally. They'd be all "Dude, there are repurcussions for doing this wrong.", and she'd still be all "Dude, I don't wanna." Then cry for not doing it and there being repurcussions, like it was a surprise.
But I really grew to like her as she came to terms with things a little more. I ended the season will full out George appriciation.
I just have a bigger love for Jaye.

oh, me too. It was just hard going for a while. Of course, I think that being a reaper would be cool, so I have a slightly different perspective.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
Also, one has to remember, George is an 18-yo slacker. She's not curious, she's not invested, she's not, well, anything. She's more of a slacker than Jaye is, who at least had the incentive to stick it out through an Ivy League education. George dropped out partway through her first semester, right?
So I accept that George would have a hard time adjusting, especially since Rube isn't much with the explanations.
