And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

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.

Sounds more like "Land of the Lost".

The evil is this way?

I guess that's how JJ Abrams will win the suit -- he can point out that it's not a rip off because there are no Sleestaks on his show.

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

They better not be finding anything resembling Chaka and his family, either.

So I guess those rumors about Bill Lambeer doing a guest spot are unfounded.

[insert something funny here]

ABC is being sued over Lost.

Interesting...

Very odd that he's waited until now to sue though. Odd.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

It could be much higher stakes now that DVDs and international broadcasts are in the works.

Maybe the guy was in a coma for the last year and just woke up?

Actually it makes perfect sense. The show comes out of the gate with great buzz and ratings. So you wait until the show's a huge hit, and sue right at the onset of it's second season (before the onset of a sophomore year curse.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Having heard George R. R. Martin explain why he didn't sue Sliders over his previous failed (but quite good -- I'm talking Global Frequency good) pilot, there are a lot of factors that go into the decision... one of which was that Sliders was never so big a hit that it was financially feasible to spend major money on a winnable suit. The producers could always claim they were losing money, and offer him very little in recompense. This despite the fact that he had a very good case.
