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.

[insert something funny here]

One sort of wants to lock Heinlein and Ayn Rand into a squash court, armed with nothing but silly string and matches, and see who kills whom.

I like this idea. Though had never really thought of silly string in terms of its usefullness as a deadly weapon. Kinda cool.

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

let's hope that Tim doesn't borrow any character development or dialog from the book, because it is terrible. These people are neither believable nor interesting.

This is what I was trying to get across, only not as well as Rick, nor as creatively as Nutty with the silly string. Thanks!

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

Since I'll never get caught up in Natter in time to wish it there, here's a heaping pile of interview-ma for Allyson!!! Good Luck!

Always Anti-fascist!

"Three Men and Adena"...although I was a heretic and said "Out of Gas" is as good as "Three Men..." But it converted me from FF-dislike.

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 am told Allyson similarly hated MIAHM, and I'm only sorry I missed examples of her fulminating rage.

I've never quite been able to articulate my Moon rage. There's the part where I temper it because it was afterall a different time, and so I try and think of Wyoh as Uhura as the telephone operator in the miniskirt and go go boots. She was hot, but she was still the receptionist.

But Wyoh was more of a silly giggly junior high student/walking phone sex commercial, and Uhura did have some dignity.

I think that's what I wish most for Tim's characters in the movie, a bit of dignity.

Pardon me if this is posted elsewhere, but I thought it on topic. I just received the newest Entertainment Weekly magazine, and they have a blurb at the bottom of page 20, about the screening of the "unaired" Wonderfalls episodes at the Knitting Factory in L.A. on June 18th and July 23rd. For those lucky few who are going, remember that the rest of us will be sitting at home eating comfort food and wishing you were dead because of our insane jealousy.

Has there been anymore news about DVDs recently, or are we still in the "likely, but they need to sort out cheaper music - keep making noise" phase?

Just wonderin'

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

Oh, I've been scooped by Lincoln! He forgot to mention the use of the phrase "Wonderfalls fans, activate!"

And EW also had a ratings summary. Wonderfalls scored a 3.6, tying with Luis and Forever Eden (on Thursdays).

But! Here are all the shows it beat:

Tarzan, One Tree Hill, Half and Half, All of Us, The Parkers, Enterprise, Steve Harvey's Big Time, Superstar USA (Tuesday), High School Reunion, Superstar USA (Monday), One on One, Grounded for Life, Forever Eden (Friday), The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, All About the Andersons, Like Family, What I Like About You, Smallville: Beginnings, The Help, I'm Still Alive, Rock Me Baby, Jake 2.0, UPN's Movie Friday, Run of the House, The Mullets, Game Over.

So, well, uh, that's not very heartening. Even though the show's better than all of those shows put together.

It looks like they're trying to screen a couple of eps at Comic Con in San Diego, as well.

I'd just like to clarify that it was that I neglected to ...not forgot to. And I apologize for that obvious gaffe.

I'm thinking my first tag should be "P-Cow scooper extraordinaire"

...wait...that doesn't sound right.
