[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

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
Gah, I'm sorry for the constant shilling.
Shilling is good. Keep up the shilling. All the Seven references are freaking me out, though, cause I hated Seven and fully plan on loving this. I did like Silence of the Lambs. I'm not sure what the difference was for me. Probably the writing, which is where I counting on Tim excelling and saving The Insider for me. Both Seven and Silence were dark and kind of gross. But I think the writing was much better on Silence.

See, this is why we need to change the name to Southland.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
this is why we need to change the name to Southland.
South Shore? South Beach? Summerland?
Might as well stick with what's already there.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I have to keep correcting people too. Can we start a change the name campaign? And by "we" I mean Allyson.

That I was there. My set report ended up reposted in various forms around the 'net, so I think FOX was a little freaked, wanting to know who this reporter was snooping around the set.
I'm just tickled that they thought I was a journalist.

I'm still baffled. I've never been able to figure out where they might have read it.
