Jilli, did you happen to tape? Squeakaboo was too cranky for viewing to occur.

No, we didn't tape 'cos I was at home to watch in real time. Take Hec up on the Tivo offer.

I think I loved everything about it. The "born in pain" line was pretty bad, but I didn't care - I think Web would sit around thinking up lines like that, just so he could use them melodramatically.

That's *exactly* how it came across to me. Web knew it was a cheese-o-riffic line, and took said it because he could.

Yes! It somehow makes a bad line kind of good.

I'm trying to figure out why: I think it was that dark shade of lipstick.

It seems like something less concrete than that to me. Perhaps how her whole way of moving, standing, her whole attitude seem to change. Tara usually seemed so hesitant. Amber acted her so well, that for a while I thought that she actually had a stutter and low self esteem. But when Tara really felt strongly in something, that doubt seemed to go away, and she had a visible strength. I think I saw that in Rachel playing tart!Rebecca. This is what it seems like to me after one viewing. I might totally change my mind once I get a chance to see it again, and again, and again.

Hmm, on second thought I won't mention that.

I'm here, but I'm off to bed in a few. That was pretty cool. I got a weird Jayne vibe off AB once or twice, was slightly disgruntled by the focus on pretty-conscience-boy, thought Rebecca was too stupid to live once or twice, but I did love Web's cold-heartedness. I liked the twist with the suicide, although it seems kind of (really really) impossible.

A couple of clunky lines, but the cinematography was cool. And I'm glad to see that a scene was shot recognizing this girl is in no way fit to be in the field. I like that Web got her through the psych profile: he's a twisted fuck, isn't he?

And the gore was kinda gory, but yeah, I've seen much more blatant. I still don't like it all that much. I'm a wimp.

Oh yeah! That also strained my credulity. Back up to three, Tim!

I will be leaving Seattle about 10 hours before the screening, dammit. I keep repeating the mantra, "Final cut, final effects, final score."

That just sucks. I was supposed to leave Seattle about a day before, but fortunately was able to change the ticket and get more leave from work. Not that I have warped priorities or anything. Not me. Of course, I still may not get a ticket. Then I'll be in Seattle crying. And repeating the same mantra.

I'm travelling with my family, so that was nsm an option.

Can't help you there, David. I'm with Consuela -- impossible, well, not IMPOSSIBLE, but unrealistic? Probably. But cool? For me, yep. I want the big, epic, pulpy story turns. And occasionally the big, cheesy, slightly over ripe line. For me that's what this show is for.

David, forged in pain.

Oops. Thanks. Edited and whatnot.

Hey, can we get a new episode tomorrow? Huh? Please?

As Craig Silverstein, my other co exec producer (the find of my career, this guy) says, "that's the show's sweet spot."
