[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.

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 adored Popular. Was nice to see Leslie Bib on Nip/Tuck.

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

Was nice to see Leslie Bib on Nip/Tuck.

I'm guessing you missed her series Line Of Fire. Just as well. She wasn't very good on it, but I suspect the flaw started in the writing.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I remember why I wrote down Kevin Hill now.

Christina Hendricks is in it. It looks silly but I will give it a few eps before giving up on it.

Our wings are not tired.

At least the promos have good production values...

So often I am confused as to why someone thought the promo would actually encourage me to see a show. Apparently most are not marketing to me.

I lost my satellite dish in a lighting storm this past weekend. It served to remind me that most of what I care to watch is distributed on DVD. I’ll still get it repaired, and the sound system that blew, but it was a reminder of how little I care about that is broadcast.

Art Crawl!!!

She wasn't good in Line of Fire -- but she was in Nip/Tuck.

Just low blood sugar. Ate a Snickers. Thanks for coming.

I'm enjoying the hell out of the 2nd season of Dead Like Me. Totally worth getting the satellite dish and Showtime for. Anyone catch the Hank Azaria psychiatrist show Huff? Is that worth checking out? Promos looked interesting.

I'll probably check out Lost, but I don't have high hopes for that one.

Anyone think a Wonderfalls movie could actually happen? I don't really see it translating to the big screen. I think Firefly has the right elements to make a movie out of, but I don't know how you'd scale up Wonderfalls. I'm glad that they're still interested in resurrecting it somehow, so maybe I'll at least get a novel or something.

Oh yeah, and the Mouthbreather from WF is on the next episode of DLM.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Well, Amélie is probably closer to it than anything I've ever seen on TV before, so it could probably translate well. I think it's a lot harder to keep a 2 hour or 90 minute show funny than a 47 minute episode, so a careful hand would be needed.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

At least the promos have good production values...

My brain is translating this into the Tapeheads definition of "production values". That is to say, T&A.

That's probably not what you meant...
