Didn't Season 5 post nearly a 1-million viewer increase at the start (that would have been about a +25% jump) and then slowly tend back down toward Season 4 numbers as the year went on? I remember the news being really encouraging at first.
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

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.

Oh yeah, the premiere had a 3.4. But after the first few episodes it was dropping back down toward S4ish levels. The cancellation was announced after the 13th episode, which got a 2.4.

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
I don't know whether this has been posted yet or not--I can't keep up with Natter at the moment--but J. August Richards has a new gig. He is joining the L&O-verse juggernaut in its latest incarnation: [link]

Hee, though we can't continue to call ourselves "Fans for a Naked Gunn." Oh, for all that is good and holy, please let Dick Wolf choose a good, strong name for our boy.

Also appearing in the show will be Eric Balfour, of short-lived (har) fame as Jesse.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
If JAR is playing a lawyer, I will laaaaaugh.
Besides, the L&O franchise could only be improved by having a White Room (and black jaguar) tucked away in the courthouse.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I got my copy of Luminosity's Scooby Road (which premiered during Vividcon 2005) last night, and I think someone should totally make copies (alas, I'm too tech-ignorant for this) for lovers of Buffy the character, especially Cindy and Nilly. In short, this is a series of vids that encompasses all of seven seasons of Buffy, set to the entirety of Beatles' "Abbey Road". I think that even those who haven't gotten into vids all that much would find things to be amazed about in this set, as long as they love the show. Each vid is brilliant, but it's more of a concert piece--it's the impact of the vid album as a whole that makes watching it so memorable. I've watched it several times since I got my copy yesterday, and it never fails to reduce me to tears by the end.
I don't know if Lum is going to make more copies (she's mailed out a huge batch of it just last week), but a little bird told me the vids may be available for downloading for a brief period of time some time in the future, so keep your ears peeled if interested.

I KNEW I recognized that name. There goes any cred I had.

Then laaaaaugh away. The premise of the show is based on young and ambitious ADAs. All signs point to JAR in expensive, well-cut suits.

That's a given, even if it's only ever happened in my head.
