Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

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.

As far as I know, that's still the order.

I think the episode after Little Girl Lost is the Amber episode. Then there's Gem, which I think is 12. They're working on 13 now.

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

Kristen! I'm drinking coffee and putting in a load of laundry, and then will send you a giganticon email.

Little Girl Lost is a Rebecca ep. Amber's ep is called "The Perfect Couple."

I'm also jealous of people who saw the episodes. However, I listened to Tim talk about the episodes, which means I got the DVD commentary first.

YAY! I'm going to the Bean to work on three shortly but look forward to the gianticon email when I get back.

"Don' be e-scared"

Brian Lowry at Variety isn't too impressed. Though his review isn't near the pan that the onliine guy at TV Guide gave us. Lowry hated Wonderfalls and Firefly -- he seems to hate this less. Is that good or bad? Actually, he seems to think I cribbed from Silence Of The Lambs. And he calls Rachel "the kind of cool blonde Hitchcock would have loved." I still feel like maybe I'm doing something right. But Cranberry's friend makes it possible for me to crank out the last one this weekend.

I dunno. When you were thinking of the show you really wanted to do, were you thinking, "gee, i really want this to be the one Brian Lowry and the TV Guide Guy just love?"


Kristen - Jun 05, 2005 8:11:20 am PDT #7795 of 10001

Has Brian Lowry ever liked anything?

And he calls Rachel "the kind of cool blonde Hitchcock would have loved."

This is good.

And you're doing lots of stuff right. It's going to be fabulous.

"Don' be e-scared"

As a matter of fact, Allyson, yes! I was thinking, "I hope that online guy at TV Guide with the Spike fixation and the name I can't quite recall doesn't think this is a boring baby." Or something.

I do disagree with Cranberry's friend on the coolest line front.

My favorite two lines so far are: "You pulled your gun on a ten-year-old? Awesome!"

And,

"You went to Web's house? Did he have furniture and cereal and stuff?"

As a matter of fact, Allyson, yes!

What about that Tornado Penis guy? Have you thought of his feelings? Did you not get the memo?


Kristen - Jun 05, 2005 8:18:12 am PDT #7799 of 10001

Yes, but those lines aren't in the episodes she saw. Mine is still, "I’m done bending over for you."
