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.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

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.

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

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.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

We haven't shut down any accounts, as far as I know. Are you not getting your password e-mail? It could be getting filtered into a junk mail folder, if that's the case. If that's not it, send an e-mail to selina AT savewonderfalls.com with your details and she'll help you out.

Thank you, Cranberry. I'll get around to e-mailing selina eventually. Sorry to bug you about it here.

Hey. New board.

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.

If Veronica Mars gets cancelled after this season, I'll be much sadder than when Wonderfalls was cancelled. Don't get me wrong, I loved and adored Wonderfalls, but VM has got me more interested than any show since Buffy. Even Firefly didn't grab me as much.

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 can't watch Veronica Mars. It does nothing for me.

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

I watch VM for a couple specific reasons. I don't respect myself much for that.
