It's interesting that Rebecca, who's the one known for surviving a harrowing kidnapping ordeal, is the one who keeps getting into kidnap/hostage situations, while Paul, the moral center of the group, was the first one caught up in a serious moral tangle.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
He's being spun off into his own series, The Webalizer. Oh no, wait. That's a server log...
Heh.
Web as spinoff from a show featuring a strong blonde female who is often tortured and gets herself in trouble a lot: the story of a dark, brooding hero with a dark past in the underbelly of LA, moved to seek justice through whatever means becomes necessary, however violent or morally ambivalent...
Wait, haven't we seen that one before?

Interesting, Anne.

Hey. New board.
I would love a Web spinoff, actually.

Get it? Web spinoff?!

I do, but I'm going to pretend I don't to prevent the massive headache the pun causes.

Ah, that was nice. Halfway through the first episode, I wanted there to be a serial killer who went after buttinsky amateur therapists. Which isn't what happened, but close enough.
Sadly, Paul seems to have come out of it even more self-righteous.
I really, really don't like him.

I may have to seize the cat.
Man, not watch-n-posting means everyone else makes all the funnies I wanted to. (See: All the stuff about Jenny Calendar.)
I heart Rebecca, so much. And more and more I am all, "Ah yes! I know how that is!" Granted, I don't parallel her much at all in the actual-life-events dept. (yay), but the socially-awkward thing? Hella yes.
Made boyf stop to admire logo, Allyson. Looks way better on TV even.
Before I was kind of sad this show was disappearing. Now I'm super-sad.
Words to boyfriend at end of 2nd episode: "Do you want to start watching all of them again from the beginning?" Because I'd totally be up for that, like, now.
ETA:
Strega, I don't much like Paul either. I am all smug because now that Web has done something self-sacrificing, Paul can't be all "WEB IS THE DEVIL!!!!" anymore. Also, I call Paul "Hal Patinkin." Because he looks like if Hal Sparks and Mandy Patinkin had a baby. (Two Mandy references in one day! Whee!)

According to the laws of Joss, this means you're going to marry him.

Or just DO him and turn him evil.
