CM casting update: AJ Cook will appear in two episodes to wrap things up, Paget's going to be in 10 of 13 of the fall episodes, with plans to appear in several of the back half episodes as well, and a new actress will be cast to replace AJ.
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I know. So much for "creative decision." It's all about the money.

Fuckers. I'm not feeling very generous to the CM execs. They better not wrap up her story by fridging her. Damn it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm sure she'll decide to go home and be stay at home mommy.

ehab and I are on the same terms. I actually might stop watching the show if that occurs. I'm serious.

ita, I'm sure you know that scenario is not BETTER just equally bad.

“Not dead yet!”
Paget just posted on Twitter: "I should clarify. I am immensely grateful. I'm still angry about AJ. I'm sad this is my last year."
Not ON, CBS. Not ON at all.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I expect I'll stop watching when Paget leaves.

It isn't that I find it so offensive that the producers might have had to make cuts for financial reasons or even if creatively they might have had a great storyline that resulted in a character death, but that they would treat the women of CM as expendable. They seem to think they're easily replaced; that they were somehow less integral to the show than any of the male characters. Gah! This whole situation makes me so angry.
