It's the week before the start of July sweeps.
See, I didn't even know there were July sweeps. Cool!
Oh, wait. You said the week before. Okay, so potentially less cool. But hey, ratings. I'm there.
Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

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.

Yep. There's four: February, May, July and November.
But I just double-checked the dates and I was off. This year, it runs June 30 to July 27. Right when you get your diary.

So is it overly simplistic to assume that the ratings during July will therefore be more important to the network than for the first couple of (June) episodes?
Thanks for all the info, by the way.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I seem to recall August being important at one time, or was I on crack as a youngster?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I had four cups of coffee in an hour earlier.
It might as well have been crack. I was bouncing off the walls.

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with
meaning? What does that mean?
I bought my friend a cow creamer for a wedding present. She loved the one on Wonderfalls -- I wanted one like that, but Todd said it was a modified vintage one and therefore not available anywhere, so I tried to find one that looked like it had the same kind of personality.
A friend of mine got her hands on a reviewers' copy of the first three episodes of The Inside, and she absolutely loved them. She did a little write-up on the pilot here (it's non-spoilery).

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
That's a great review. Thanks for sharing, Cranberry.
Is it Wednesday yet?

Thrive to spite them
I've skipped like a mad skippy person.
I assume there's going to be a watch and post? I'm fully prepared to haul my tv in the bedroom (vs moving the computer) in order to particpate.

His casting is ironic only if you, like me, recognize the guy not from his long respectable list of credits but as Mandy Moore's preacher dad in A Walk To Remember, which I'm almost ashamed to admit is how I recognized him.
Cranberry, please tell your friend it could be far worse.
She could remember him from The Legend of Billie Jean.
