oh death by sitting on you. AWESOME!!!
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.
(Allyson and Kristen will hopefully back me up on this -- I'm talking Pilot, Old Wounds, Pre-Filer. Body count pretty even, seems to me.)
For five bucks and a Coke, I'll say anything you want.
So I'm not sure saying it's all about violence against women washes, frankly.
Did the press get the first three eps, or the pilot and two later ones? I remember w/ Wonderfalls, it was something like 1, 5, and 8. (And then 2 was included in the second wave of press kits, and then Fox changed the order of the other ones.)
Dude, I never touched Willow.
Tim killed Tara! Get him!
Jessica, they got the first three.
Then I got nuthin'.
Tim killed Tara! Get him!
Yeah, get him -- so I can buy him a beer!
Am I the only person who likes crime style dramas to be gruesome?
In this crowd? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
I feel like I should do a body count spreadsheet. But I won't. (I do, however, think that would make an excellent feature for your site, Kevin. A weekly butcher's bill.)
I disagree with much of what the Zap2It person had to say. But I think a lot of her comments are a perspective/taste thing. (For example, I'm in the, "Horrifically gory, YAY!" Camp, myself.)
I agree somewhat on the "Rebecca in peril issue." Though now I'm trying to remember all the episodes I've read because I feel like the problem becomes less...problematic? as the season goes on. Plus there are some great Rebecca moments, even while in peril, that mitigate the peril a bit, for me. Therefore, I'm gonna say I agree on the "Rebecca in peril issue," with respect to the first three episodes.
Of course, I am the first to admit that I have no perspective. I couldn't love the show more if it were my own. (Well, maybe a little more. I know my bank balance would love it lots more.) So perhaps I am not the best judge.
