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.

He told me he'd been thinking a lot about the show, that he couldn't shake it, that this was a "testament to my illness,"

That's probably the coolest comment ever. Tim, I think you should change your tag to "a testament to my illness".

In fact, I know people already love the 'support group for clumsy' whatever for a thread title, but I'm going to toss that into the bureau ring for a Minearverse title--if not for Minearverse 4, than for Minearverse 5. It's too good.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Out of context, it may be difficult to determine the referent to said illness, but still worth a shot.

OH, and my early guess when we saw the pre-filer watching the team was that one of them was on his list. dum dum DUM!

Mine too and it put some more life into the evil little worm in my head that if the prefiler was indeed as adept as he seemed at profiling, that well, maybe one of them should be on the list. Or was very close to being.

Then the possibly-creepy-kid misdirected me again. I'm easily led.

For a good while, I thought that the older of the two kids was the one being targeted. I was completely misdirected by the bit with the video game and his pulling a toy gun on Danny. When the missing cat was mentioned, my first assumption was that the kid had done something to it.

Okay so I'm not so evil in thinking these same exact thoughts too. I was convinced too, until the girl mentioned Roger having her cat.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I will mention one person who does seem to get it... of course he's had a chance to see more than the critics, and that's Peter Liguori, the pres of the network.

Given what he did for Arrested Development, and how he sheperded shows at FX, I now love this guy.

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

I like her fuckedupedness and see her as a compelling Red Riding Hood with a push-knife hidden in her basket.

Hee. I mentioned this the other day, that she should be wearing a wee red hood.

Fantastic episode. When Martin survived I said to my wife, "now Clarice has her Hannibal." And I meant it in a good way. I really hope we see him again.

And that wordless scene with Adam teaching the kid how to hold a gun? Priceless.
