Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
"Jack & Bobby," despite all of its critical acclaim (and being one of my favorites this season), is hemorrhaging viewers (its 2.248 million average ranks as the WB's least-watched scripted program on the network) not to mention off over 40% from "Angel's" numbers at this point last season. Nevertheless, "Angel" didn't face-off against "American Idol" so the audience drop was undoubtedly expected.
I think Jack & Bobby loses more potential audience to West Wing and Alias than to American Idol. I think I remember reading somewhere that J&B had more viewers on Easy View than in the regular time slot. It's just the wrong slot for that show.

JM talks about "Cool Money".
I love the way he always makes sure to say, "Not that I *approve* of that lifestyle, no, not at all. Even though the character is damned cool."

Heh. That's when I watch it. It was always more convenient for me when it was on Sundays and I had nothing else to watch.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I'm sorry to hear that Jack & Bobby is suffering, since a number of folks here like it. But at the same time, I want 8:00pm Wednesday to become a red ink-bleeding hole in the network schedule that makes 8:00 Friday on Fox look hospitable in comparison.

Who? moi??
One of the problems with J&B is LOST's habit of running a few minutes over. You can't program your Tivo. I am sick of West Wing and I would watch Alias, but...

My work world and my fan world are not as far apart as they should be. I saw the following magazine name
Illustrated carpenter and builder
and thought, "Ooh! Tattooed Xander!"
I'm going to go get some caffeine.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ah, so you've read CICATRIX then.
Heh. I just sent JZ one of the fan covers for that today. (The Dru/Willow one.)
