Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

[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.

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

You have to remember, Kathy, that it's a promo for S1. Presumably for people who haven't even seen S1 before.

Ah. True. I still like the idea of Locke conducting the others, considering how he's been playing the other characters all season.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't know if those ads would have attracted me to the show any. My existing affection for some of the characters makes it fun, but when I try and distance myself from that, it's annoying.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Grr. I can't get the first one to load, but the second one? They should make one just of Sun and Jin dancing. God, that was gorgeous.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Huh. I got video, but no audio on either clip. Still, creepy and pretty.

I'm twisted enough that I really wanted Boone to be dancing with Shannon.

They give away all the couplings (actual or hinted), don't they, except for Babymama/Druggie, right?

Also, in the voiceover ad -- there's a reference to one of them being a cop? Am I forgetting something? Who dat?

t edit Unless they were trying to be sneaky and are referring to the sky marshall (if he was in fact a marshall). But that would be cheap, since everyone else referred to was in the ad.

For those of us who are me and didn't get audio, could someone recap the voiceover?

The voiceover started with (I think) Jack, saying "We all have a secret," and then the different characters say "One of us is..." and a different description given, including hero, fraud, junkie, cop, saint, sinner, martyr and murderer. And then it ends with a voiceover saying "All of us are guilty....all of us are lost."
