I think Smallville is moving to Thursday at 8pm and it will be up against Alias and The OC.
No way! I am disbelieving this.
I can barely believe it too.
I've been thinking about how the popular genre shows and the fandom are sorta like hip hop. The early episodes are like the coolest songs that get sampled by internet fans and fanfic writers who strip the shows down and get the best breakbeats and cool parts and create something new, but not completely new. It's awesome synergy, or whatever.
But as time goes on the shows themselves run out of cool ideas and the episodes are barely even whole recognizeable episodes, they start turning into nothing but mostly hookless or wacky breakbeats. Some of the fans still try to hang on and valiantly sample the coolest parts they can salvage but then it just becomes like so much P./Puff Diddy/Daddy sampling old hip hop songs and eveything starts caving in.

Oh! I don't watch either of those. Hmmm. Maybe I'm in, again.

That's a great theory, candy.

I'm all sorts of tempted to come up with some sort of Puff Daddy/P.Diddy name conversion for Joss Whedon, but I'm coming up all J Weewee.
Candy, I love that compare. It rings so sadly true.
I also love the name J Weewee, and will never be able to think of him as anything else.
J Weewee.
Hee!
Could also be a Korean R&B/hiphop star.

I think it has merit too. The Law of Diminishing Returns hits on the remix culture (cf., Wired).
All talk no action.
(read: All "Oh, I love J Weewee" no COMMing)
I also love the name J Weewee, and will never be able to think of him as anything else.
I think I may have to add J Weewee to my LiveJournal interests.
There are
Alias
spoilers up at Dark Horizon. I don't watch
Alias,
so I have no clue if you've seen these, or if they're any good, but I stumbled across the link in lj, and thought I'd pass it on. [link]
Heh. That's a bit like saying demons will appear in Sunnydale, yeah?
