The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress

[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.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

Fox to start Reality Channel

Finally, maybe now they'll have room on their schedule for decent programming to stay on the air!

ETA two amusing quotes:

The Fox Reality Channel, Namer said, is essentially an excuse for the Fox companies to burn off their programming.

and:

The Fox Reality Channel will concentrate on the competitive games and romantic reality shows.

‘‘This is not just a passing fad for Fox," said Fox Networks spokesman Tom Tyre. ‘‘They've been doing this for a while."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I was gonna say that they already had a reality channel with Fox News, but then I figured that News is their unreality channel.

Speaking of Fox !"Fair and Balanced" News, some guy made a documentary on how utterly partisan it is and the ginormous agenda it has. NYTimes article here.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

From savewonderfalls.com:

We have a bit of Wonderfalls DVD news for you! The release is still (tentatively) scheduled for December 7 of this year, and the episodes will be presented in 16x9 widescreen. Bryan Fuller and Todd Holland have already recorded commentary on "Crime Dog," "Lovesick Ass" and "Caged Bird." They'll be joined by stars Caroline Dhavernas and Katie Finneran for "Wax Lion" and "Safety Canary" commentary, and by Caroline, Katie and Scotch Ellis Loring (Dr. Ron) for "Cocktail Bunny" commentary. The disc set will also contain a documentary on the show and most likely a few deleted scenes and outtakes. Other features are TBA.

Scotch Ellis Loring on "Cocktail Bunny" should be great, as should any one involving the cast. But where's Tim? I need my Commentary for the Blind, dammit!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm excited for the DVDs. I even want them.

I'm sad at the lack of more commentary.

ahem. If we do the Buffista Secret Santa, this might make a nice gift. For someone, you know.

Daniel, I'm trying to parse your tagline ("Thor just got shirty!"-Emily) without much success. What does 'shirty' mean? Is this the Thor of our ancestors? How does Emily know whether he has gotten shirty or not? Is she some kind of conduit to the gods?
