I thought "Alias" was ludicrouser (is SO a word) than "Lost." I suspect voter fraud in Florida or Ohio.
Ouhh! Snacks! The secret to any successful migration! Who's up for some tasty fried meat products!?

[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.

Yep, I'm sure the Florida vote went to Alias. Still tough choices all round. At least this time I understand a close vote.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Are we supposed to be voting for overall ludicrosity, or deviations from the show's average?

How does either rate against a) random attack by mountain lion or b) sudden amnesia by presumed death of daughter?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
deviations from the show's average?
That makes a huge difference. I mean, Lost and Alias would never come up on my radar because so few of their plots hold water.

And honestly, for the OC Marissa is the epitome of stupidity and has been so from day one.

So the OC has your non-porous plots?
It is kinda scary the percentage of shows I enjoy that have the Ludicrous plots.
Also, just noticed that an hour forty passed with such a tight number available. What is the world coming to? (see above Kat scores 8888 without effort)

Relatively speaking, yeah. And that's saying something.

Are we supposed to be voting for overall ludicrosity, or deviations from the show's average?
I think we have to judge by the latter. If not, how could anything else compete with any given episode of Charmed? This is a show where people pay Alyssa Milano's character to write an advice for the lovelorn column. (For those lucky souls who have never watched, her character has dated Nick Lachey and been married to the Devil in seasons past. Compared to her, Buffy has good luck with romantic relationships.)
