Sorry, I didn't mean to come across harshly.
You didn't, don't worry. I'm just frustrated with my lack of ability to communicate my thoughts since you and Hec seemed to read me the same way. The 3 day headache isn't helping.
Right. Sir. Honey.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
NBC's affiliates aren't in competition with each other, I think is the point. So they can share.
Kat -- yes! I just wished it had been more effective,
Please tell me that no first-year rookie students from the L.A. center are going to be looking out for Fox?
Fox? Oh, he's on his own.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Look at it this way, it might not be you. It's most likely the rest of us. Hec and I have been know to be off in left field on occasion.
Edit:
ita to the rescue as usual. And no physical force was necessary. Sorry.
If the affiliates aren't in competition, then it goes back to localizing the disaster. It's a ratings goldmine. Who doesn't want to hear about the boy from your city/town/state that miraculously survived X?

I get you Aurelia. Rather isn't going to share with ABC or NBC, but why he can't share with the CBS local affiliates is another matter.
Personally, I think it has mostly to do with the reporters trying to grab a chance to jump out of the local news and into the Big Time.

Thank you, ita. That is what I was failing to say.

OMG, Angela Bassett is HAWT. She can do this thing with her eyes that's just... DAMN. Aww, I feel like my Alias is back.

FTR on Alias the "metro" is the North Hollywood of the LA metro. When Sydney walks out of the train into the station, the sign says North Hollywood.
I t heart Angela Bassett.

If I was on day three of a headache, I don't think I'd have been too successful myself.
I've just almost refiled my photos into three small photo boxes. If I slack now, I'll never finish. But my protein smoothie is all melty, and Alias is on, and my computer misses me.
Also I need a big envelope.

I feel so out of the loop. Is it a crime against TV that I've never seen an episode of Alias?
