[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 love the Swan. It's pure porn, the ugliest parts of humanity all wrapped up in the most insipid package of human waste, EVAH. They should combine it with Fear Factor and have the participants eat live worms in order to win liposuction to make it even more self-degrading.

Everytime I see it, I feel better about myself and realize that I do, in fact, have self-esteem.

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

I wanted Tru Calling to get cancelled so I wouldn't have to watch it anymore.

I'm downloading the second season premiere right now. We'll see if they were really improving tomorrow.

"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

I too prayed for The Swan and all of Fox's Surprise! He's Actually Gay! reality shows to die fiery deaths that took their creators with them. But as far as fiction goes, I don't think I've ever rooted that strongly for anything to be cancelled, figuring that they're not destroying real people's lives and someone somewhere must enjoy them.

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

Rather funny and kind of sad thread at Whedonesque that started off as "vote to save Point Pleasant!" then got derailed into "PP is godawful and totally needs to be cancelled," "I've voted for Veronica Mars instead," "Me, too!"

Yeah, I followed a "save PP" link from Buffy News, and voted for Veronica Mars instead. Other than the fact that I'm watching it, I can't understand why the ratings for VM suck the way they do. Even with a guest spot by Alyson Hannigan, the ratings still sucked. Great show, though.

I can't understand it either. for the past couple of weeks i've been pimping the hell out of it. if it gets canned it will be akin to the heartbreak i felt when Wonderfalls was cancelled.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

I actually watched all but the last ep of PP. Or at least sat there while it was on. I thought that the marketing for it was great though- it made me really want it to be as good as the commercials.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I'll even flist her.

I'm guessing I'm the only one who first read this as Allyson offering to fist Marti.

Dude. So weird. The second season premiere of Tru Calling? Good!

There's good character conflict, it's less formulaic, there's less rewind filler, there's already the beginnings of an arc. It's such an improvement.

I was wishing for its demise before, but now I'm very interested in seeing the rest of the filmed episodes, and I probably would have watched the second season without feeling as dirty. I mean, it's no Wonderfalls, but I bet it's better than Point Pleasant.
