"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Didn't one of the Law & Orders get the axe too? Trial by Jury or something like that?

Yep. The one Jerry Orbach was supposed to be on. *sniff*

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

What was the wording of that Oliver on The OC spoiler, I wonder? It'd be pretty weak if they were fooled by the line in the ep referring to him.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh, I assumed it was the other way around. (That the line was a shout-out to the foiler.)

hip deep in pie

This is the spoiler I read from TV Guide:

Question: Is it true that Oliver is coming back to The O.C.? — Bec

Ausiello: You mean the character formerly known as Josh Schwartz's Shameless Plot Device? Sadly, yes, I'm hearing he's coming back — and suffice it to say I'm not happy. The O.C. came thisclose to jumping the you-know-what when they introduced Marissa's deranged rehab buddy last season, and I thought Josh had learned his lesson. Luckily, it appears Ollie is just returning for the final episode, which, coincidentally, finds Seth, Summer, Marissa and Ryan caught in some kind of crossfire at the Bait Shop. Great, not only is Psycho Boy back, but someone went and gave him a gun?!?!

That's really funny. I'm all for foilers and onscreen mentions of them. I would have Josh's babies if he kept doing it.

What is even happening?

I thought I was reading this conversation in Natter. I couldn't decide whether to speak up, or pop some popcorn.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Here is the thing. Jack is an anti-hero. The situation has rendered him incapable of proceeding in a heroic fashion.

We Buffistas recognize this. The vast majority, though, accepts that Jack is "us".

If we could only rely on heroes to save the world -- there mightn't be anything left.

I'm not saying the end justifies every mean, but I'm tired of all the white-hattery that has so little in the way of grey.

World != white, world !=black.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

ita, have you been listening to your old Michael Jackson LPs again?

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

Forget "We Are The World" -- Michael is the whole world all unto himself.

I remember an old French headline "Michael Jackson -- ni homme, ni femme, ni blanc, ni noir" from the 80s which made me laugh.

These days, they could expand it to "ni adulte, ni enfant"

[man, woman, white, black, adult, child, to be totally obvious]
