I saw The Inside yesterday, in a room full of people.
And a poodle. Don't forget the poodle.
Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

[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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Another social casualty...
"Webb" is aptly named: he's a spider, collecting people's souls.
I see this, but I also keep thinking that he is also Virgil Webb. Maybe he is like Dante's Virgil, leading Rebecca through the darkness to find the light. Or maybe not.
I liked the show a lot, but I'm not in love yet. The goriness didn't bother me too much.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Actually, Virgil Webster. Web is his nickname.

To say nothing of the dog.
Yes, The Inside is a good show to watch while having a warm, furry creature on your lap to pet during the disturbing parts.
Virgil Webster
Would Webster be a tip of the nib to Webster as in dictionary? He who has lots of data and answers, but you have to really look into him to see what they are? Or John Webster as in "The Duchess of Malfi" and "The Devil's Law-Case"?

Wow. First time posting in...a year? More? Probably more. What's my tag? Yikes!
Just had to check in after watching amych watch & post at my house last night. It looked like so much fun!
As for the show: Tim gives good creepy. So does Peter Coyote. I liked it, I laughed, it scared the bejeesus out of me, it kept me on the edge of my seat. All of these are good things. I have some reservations re: gender issues, much like Hec articulated a few posts back. But I'm going to reserve judgment on that and let the arc play out and see where it goes.
But I really mainly posted because amych namechecked my poodle.
Hello to all, love you, miss you, totally doing a drive-by because I'm heading out to a company picnic, which beats working. mwah!

The name "Danny Love" continues to ping me with "Get Christie Love!" and with Web's comment about plainclothes I'm expecting a scene with a cross-dressing AB taking down a perp with Theresa Grave's signature line "You're under arrest, sugar."

I would pay folding money to see this.

So would I. Maybe we could bribe Tim. Or Tim's beagles.

If that's what it takes to draw you out of the woodwork, I will sing her LULU name in every LULU thread LULU to make it happen more LULU often.
