Cordelia ,'Storyteller'
[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.
So had this attitude that if only everyone followed the rules and otherwise did what they were supposed to, the world would be a better place.
I suffered from this one myself. I obeyed the rules, after all, and then people kept doing things like getting in line ahead of me and taking the last cookie. Now I believe that if everyone obeyed my rules, the world would be a better place.
If I could chuck one, it'd be Totem Mole. Cocktail Bunny, Crime Dog and the finale are my favorites.
In my limited viewing, the one I'd chuck is "Wound-Up Penguin," no question. I find it hard to pick a favorite, because "Wax Lion," "Karma Chameleon," and "Pink Flamingos" are very good in very different ways. I do have an irrational love of "Karma Chameleon," though, since I spent a lot of energy defending it on TWoP. And "Muffin Buffalo" cracked me the hell up, as well as made me think. I want to see the others, dammit!
All this discussion is making me anxious for WF DVDs. Any idea of a date yet?
They're still aiming for December, and are in the process of replacing the music right now. Apparently it's all going well. Hopefully the people who go to the thing tonight will ask some good questions about it and let us know what's said!

Yeah, I found it weaker than the others, too. Initially I didn't like "Karma Chameleon," either, but it's really grown on me. And I think you'll love most of the ones you haven't seen -- the episodes just get better and better as the show goes on.

In my staunch defense of the episode, I began to realize I was more like Jaye than I had initially led myself to believe. And I'm always drawn to themes of identity. I'd never seen the doppelganger trope used so well to actually give insight into the character of the doppelganged.
Although while, like Jaye, my blurb, like my life, is a work-in-progress, I would totally make one up. I love writing the little cast bios in programs, and I often write other people's.

I believe you. "Muffin Buffalo" and "Lovesick Ass" were so much better than the ones aired. My friend who wasn't really a fan from having seen the first couple episodes liked them a whole lot more.
The movie is filled with shots of Jennifer Connolly in a white t-shirt and no bra getting Sprayed Down with Various Liquids. This makes her Slippery and Difficult to Rescue when she keeps clumsily getting herself caught by Enemy Mashers.
And so, that's the premise of Moon, as brought to you by the Hollywood Machine.
You might want to consider doing this for grocery money, Allyson, because that movie would so get made. Also, people would go (see AAP post above). Your synopsis is more entertaining than Heinlein's book by a factor of a lot.
If Jennifer Connolly isn't available, I hear Helen Hunt loves the white T-shirt getting sprayed roles, so if she isn't too old, call her.

ewwww irrational Helen Hunt Hater here
Thanks Cranberry. It's nice to know we can always count on you for WF updates! I'm a tad anxious, as I wasn't even able to see all the eps that aired. I finally gave up on trying to find additional eps, and am just trying to keep myself spoiler free for the DVDs. Hey, it worked for me for Firefly!

I agree. I hardly recognized your Moon, Allyson, and I just read the book. Sounds perfect for Hollywood.
Surely Tim will spice it up with interesting dialog and character development. Please. Hint, hint, Tim.

And by "development" you mean "murder."
