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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

In the future, networks will probably order three episodes of a new show and cancel the show after the first 15 minutes.

Yup, as the pilot's title credits fade to black, instead of a commercial a network executive appears and says that it's just not working out, and that everybody should stay tuned for a sneak preview of the network's latest reality project.

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

That's funny. Tragic. Still funny.

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

47!

Alias fan?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Ah, well, sorta. 47 is an obscure reference to my alma mater. A producer at Alias is a fellow alumna who is slightly more successful at the shout-out.

Oh, cool. What's your alma mater?

Pomona College.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Those were all over ST:TNG as well, IIRC.

(yes, I did that on purpose.)

Another almnus. We're everywhere.

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

Line Of Fire seems to have been arced with a direction-changing big moment at episode 13. I wonder if that was deliberate, and how often it happens in shows that don't get cancelled. I should make a note to look at all the ep 13s next season. If there are any.

Was that ep 12/13 that showed on Sunday? Any word on showing any more?
