[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.

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

Also, I'm taking out some issues I've read around the net, here.

Most notably, the assertion that Rebecca is too unprofessional at her job, and shouldn't be an FBI agent and therefore the show is ridiculous.

And i keep thinking, "yes. she wasn't supposed to be a field agent. thanks for getting it."

I've stopped reading around the net. No good can come of it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Dude, did they miss the part where Web specifically pulled her through the ranks?

I think they were putting in the fabric softener during that scene.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Man, I was rattling around the kitchen making dinner during the pilot, and I picked up on that.

And i keep thinking, "yes. she wasn't supposed to be a field agent. thanks for getting it."

There was a specific reference to her being groomed towards statistical analysis before Web grabbed her, despite her desire for field work. I'm not sure how detailed/rigorous her field training would be in that case.

eta Woohoooooo!!!! My first 10000!

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

The harsh mistress is done having her way with y'all, so trip on over to:

And remember, mind the sharp edges...
