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.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I will grant that there are other good times on tv, including a few other eps of Firefly, and other Minearverse shows (such as a few Angel eps, and those Buffy eps that Tim did) but I have yet to find as good as OoG. I will admit that it is theoretically possible.

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

Kari Matchett (Beth) is currently on Sci-Fi in Five Days to Midnight, and presumably will be all week. She's blonde.

She's played opposite Hutton before, on Nero Wolfe.

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

Aaand then Tracie Thoms was in a FedEx commercial. This is getting freaky.

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

Call me when Lee Pace shows up.

Kari is naturally a blonde. I think she was wearing a wig for Wonderfalls.

That is correct. She looks very good blonde.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

How was "Five Days..."? Worthwhile so far?

It's in the second hour. It's getting cooler with the "It was in the briefcase! And now it's happened!" business. I'm into that shit. It's definitely intriguing, but that's a function of the premise.

The interesting thing is it's being treated realistically. As in, since the characters don't know they're in a sci-fi movie, they're treating it as if it's a hoax.

Hey. New board.

Mmm. The Body.

Every time I see that episode, it gets better. The last time I saw it, it finally surpassed "Hush" as my second favorite Buffy ep. Because "Hush" doesn't impress as much on continued viewings (still awesome, plus, yay!, Tara intro, but not much MORE awesome), while "The Body" just becomes more and more impressive.

I also like that Tim episode, "The Horrible Painful Death of Spike." Though I wish they'd left in the extra scenes on the DVD - you know, the exclusive, real-fans-only Dawn Massacre scene.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

you know, the exclusive, real-fans-only Dawn Massacre scene.

I sooo wanted to see that.
