oatmeal or elijah killed the thread.

I am horrified by what I just saw on the abc homepage. down at the bottom is this Casting Call area. all these reality shows soliciting for people. ugh. I hope the trend of falling ratings continues for the majority of reality.

If my reality has crappy ratings, does that mean I get to replace it with the scripted show of my choice?

'Cause I could get behind that.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

debate time:

I did not watch the Battlestar Galactica pilot. If I record it today - i don't get LOST - which would be okay, but then I don't don't get LOST next week due the point pleasant pilot - which I must see. So should I just skip the BG pilot? esp since I never loved the original?

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

I did not watch the Battlestar Galactica pilot.

The pilot airs on Friday -- I think it's the miniseries that you didn't record. However, before the pilot on Friday, there's a 1/2 hour show that says it'll sum up what happened.

I don't think it's that tightly connected to the original -- I've suppressed those memories, and quite enjoy this new show.

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

So far today, I have left my matching shoes in the car and developed a huge run in the front of my nylons. I want to go home.

That seems reasonable, Lee.

shrift, if you get that to work, let me know. I would even take up writing if I could script my own life.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I'm mostly with P-C. I was not very forgiving of the singing, but the time lapse thing didn't bug me because didn't she have to wait until Wallace got his fake?

Sure I thought the taping counsellor's sessions was wrong, but it didn't bother me (if that makes sense).

but then I don't don't get LOST next week due the point pleasant pilot - which I must see.

I thought Point Pleasant was on an hour later than LOST (although given what ABC's been doing, it will run over by 1-3 minutes).
