Buffistas

You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

[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)

Just got back from a well-deserved week of doing nothing in Mexico (aka vacation) and even though the hotel was swank and the margaritas cold, the absolute best thing that happened was the Fox affiliate SHOWED WONDERFALLS!!! Not just any episode, but "Crime Dog"!! I was in the bath and I literally leapt out and danced for joy. This was at like midnight, so I'm glad I was up and happened to have the TV on.

Fox affiliate in Los Cabos on the Baja, I love you.

They also showed Buffy at least twice a day, and I caught more than one Angel , AND one Firefly (pilot). There were Spanish subtitles but no dubbing, thank god. (Although randomly the commercials were, so the Simpsons became even more self-referential.)

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Who is moving to Cabo with me?

Wow. Joss and Tim have a fan in Mexico. A fan who programs syndicated television.

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with meaning? What does that mean?

Kristin from E!Online is still annoying me. From her August 2nd chat transcript:

From ikyro: Is there any news on if the Wonderfalls DVD is coming out for sure?

There's still nothing official. Should we storm Fox?

We've known since late May that DVDs are a go, and I think public acknowledgement from the producers (at the screenings in LA and San Diego) makes it pretty damn official. Is it too much to ask that someone whose job is to know all about TV actually provides accurate information?

Since Fox Home Entertainment hasn't released any PR, that makes it technically unofficial. It's not like she's lying.

No, I know she's not lying... but the producers have been talking about the DVDs since late May; the set has been mentioned on reputable sites and at screenings. She could at least mention it looks like they're being made.

Eh, I'm probably just too easily annoyed -- I'm still peeved that she never acknowledged SaveWonderfalls.com.

Art Crawl!!!

I just want confirmation that it is December rather than January (as mentioned in EW) that the dvds are coming out.

You should write and tell her! I think she's pretty responsive to email and, as a fan of the show, would be happy to share the news.

I've actually written her three (I believe) e-mails about Wonderfalls and SaveWonderfalls since she started bemoaning the cancellation in her column/chat (and some other fans wrote her about the site, too), but she didn't respond or mention anything about a fan campaign on E!Online, even when fans asked in her chat how they could help (she just gave them an address for FOX and for the WB so they could complain/ask Levin to take the show). I dunno.

Sumi, I just asked Bryan about the EW thing, and he says "I think they misprinted, but that was a nice little article." He hasn't heard anything about a change from the December 7 date.

Thanks Cranberry!

I mean, it's only a month later -- but from here it feels like forever.
