It's actually not bad. Daniel threw in a few good jokes and snarky comments this time around, instead of doing recapping for the blind. While I wouldn't say the better recappers have to worry about competition just yet, he doesn't seem resentful of having to watch the show or clueless about what he's watching. (Both criticisms I'd level against Pammie, who should maybe think about pursuing another way to earn extra $ so that she's not bored, miserable, and spreading those feelings to all her readers.)
Inara: We thought we lost you. Mal: Well, I've been right here.

Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Pammie's quality is declining? That's too bad. I've been fond of her since I discovered (through a Gilmore Girls recap) that she and I worked for the same movie theater chain at the same time.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I only know of Pammie through her "Wonderfalls" recaps and so have a very low opinion of her.
I'm afraid that whoever winds up doing "Lost" recaps is going to suffer in comparison to Cleolinda.
My favorite TWOP recappers are probably sobell and Miss Alli.

I actually only read the recaps when I've missed an episode. So, not very often.

This is where I formed my "why are you even bothering to write this?" opinion of her. Maybe if she wrote good recaps of another smart show like Gilmore Girls, it's not that she's abyssmally stupid and unimaginative, but just that she was watching something whose premise she completely didn't buy?

I wasn't a fan of those recaps either, because like you said, she really didn't like it and it showed. Her GG recaps are okay, though I've found I enjoy the non-recappy bits more. Her little random anecdotes about her life, and what's in her purse. I liked her book.

There was video footage!? *runs away scared*
Hee. *rubs hands maniacally, thinking of blackmail possibilities* I'll have to watch it and see if you appear. ;)

Terrified as I am at the possibility of there being actual video footage of The Partyman in action, nothing can spoil my current mood, as Maggie Grace just responded to one of my posts at The Fuselage, and I am glowing with fanboy love.
Glowing aside, I feel stupid for not having noticed / remembered any cameras at the W&H AR. Weird.

Yup, and all I can think of is either "eye of the hurricane" or "eye of the beholder." Neither of which seem terribly relevant.
