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.

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

Lee has an article, mostly about Soldier's Girl, in the August Interview magazine.

Oooh, excellent.

He needs to work more.

I don't know if that helps or hurts in the case of approaching him for you

Unless he's nice enough to let me have his funny little babies, no help at all. I mean, it's what I wanted to do to/for Idle, and Palin's no better.

If I only had a brain...

Really sick joke, Frankenbuddha.

Um.

Really sick joke, Frankenbuddha.

Which lived up to the mans legacy.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Really sick joke, Frankenbuddha.

In that case, yes, totally understood. Up there with Terry Gilliam kicking over GC's "ashes" at the Python reunion on HBO for the 30th anniversary.

Sorry to make a thing of it - I've dealt with some irrational Python haters in my day, so I'm a tad protective, especially wrt Graham Chapman.

That was truly wonderful, shrift. PMM beat me to COMM.

By the way, the question is a good one, Allyson. Just enough substance mixed in with series knowledge and adoration. Bummer that you couldn't ask it.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

In that case, yes, totally understood. Up there with Terry Gilliam kicking over GC's "ashes" at the Python reunion on HBO for the 30th anniversary.

The Aspen Comedy Festival! FE has been looking everywhere for it. I couldn't find it Region One, but I know other Region versions exist. I think I have a link to the transcript.

All is well that ends in pizza.

A friend of mine has seen the unreleased ""The Rutles II: All you Need is Lunch" Which was made in 2002.

He said it's quite referential to the first Rutles TV mocumetary, but still funny and a good time.

Apparently Warner Brothers TV has it and Eric Idle likes saying it fell into a black hole there..

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

That wasn't the question Allyson told me. It was more along the lines of "you've always had a gift for killing your characters, how hard was it not to kill anyone on Wonderfalls, and if the series had continued, who would've been the first to go?" Only she said it better than that.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I knew you'd remember better.
