[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.

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

Initially I didn't like "Karma Chameleon," either, but it's really grown on me.

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.

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.

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.

If wishes were horses we'd all be eating steak.

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.

I have no idea what movie you are talking about, having jumped into the middle of all this... but where can I buy advanced tickets?

I can't even.

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.

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."

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 think Tim's version will actually be, you know, good. Whereas mine is, you know, sleazy.

Although Heinlen seemed to appreciate sleazy, mastabatory, inane crap.

Allyson, you didn't tell us who is going to play Kit, er, I mean Data, er, the magical self-aware computer.
