[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yikes, cable went wonky as all hell there...

I think of the Pacific Grand Prix (race type, not the dancing movie type) as the Malaysian Grand Prix held in Sepang, but it might not still be referred to that way. Still, it is definitely cars. The faster than seems possible kind.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

He's gonna be busy breaking stories for season three of The Inside.

Nothing would make me happier.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.

Now I'm thinking I shouldn't have cut that line from the episode.

I'm sure it's a good cut but I like it for a trailer. I was like, "Wait, they ALL have some kind of problem and somehow these problems are useful to their work of solving violent crimes?!?"

Does the computer guy double as in house shrink?

Ima love JenP again and still.

Phew. Close call.

June 8th is not so far away. Most exciting. In the promo, did she faint dead away when she was watching the girl in a very unhappy situation on a TV monitor? I wasn't taping. Did I see that right?

Also, it seems so genuinely cree-peee. In a scares you but makes you want to know what happens way. But, maybe not watch alone. It has been a long time since I've been that kind of well-creeped and intrigued by a TV show. I'm thinking this may be like that.

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

Dammit! Someone needs to upload this promo, stat, so I can watch it. Or make sure it airs during...wait, I don't watch anything else on Fox. Oh, The O.C. ! Maybe they'll show it then. Because they so have the same target audience. I mean, I did see one after Family Guy.

Just don't shoot her. For the love of all that is holy, don't shoot her.

made me snort my water up my nose. thanks for that, Allyson.

Swouncing

You guys realize you make me so very excited and curious about a show that's only going to arrive to this side of the ocean in all sorts of not-so-legal I'm-too-prude-to-use ways, right? As long as there weren't any promos, I was just like any of you guys (only I really loved seeing how in-love and having-faith Allyson and Kristen are). Now that there are promos and a date and things start to get real and near, I'm all wait-wait-wait, what about me MeME?

So here's the thing. I'm too curious. The show will just have to be a huge enough hit for some Israeli channel to not only buy it, but also hurry up with showing it to make their eager audience happy. As current events show, it will probably be an extra-payment channel on top a cables package, which I can't afford (we have two cables companies. One just started showing "Lost", the other "Desperate Houswives", and that's considered incredibly fast in Israeli-channels standards). But I'm willing to overlook that "can't afford" aspect, because I'm not that spoiled - I'll find a way, then. That's my plan and I'm sticking to it. At least it's better than sighing.

What is even happening?

ION, I know someone who is thinking of spending triple digits on tickets for Serenity and flying me in for the movie. It's kinda a lot for a night at the movies but we've not thrown in the towel. Tell me the movie is good?
Wow, Cass. You'd better wear the WonderBra.

this?

Seconded. It's funny when someone tickles my fandom buttons I thought disconnected long ago.

And Tim? Allyson's right. Funny. But right.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The promo from last night is the first one that's really made me want to watch the show. (I'll take Allyson's word for it that the teasers were...accurate, but they really didn't show someone who knows nothing about the show anything to get excited about.) But last night's promo finally made clear the fact that this is a show about characters, which is a big step forward in getting me interested.

I'll be honest -- knowing in advance that they're Tim-characters helps a lot. I don't think I'm this show's target audience. But I think I might like it anyway.

They may also have promos for The Inside during House (i.e. tonight at 9), but I can't confirm that. I think someone upthread mentioned that they did two weeks ago.
