Where did you get all this 70s referentiality?
Please always remember. And never forget. Cable TV is full of reruns.

You won't win any prizes for guessing which show that quip comes from, but if you can? I'll love you forever.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Coolness! I'm musically clueless so I need a helping hand anyway.
Gimme a clue. I've got...roughly everything. Do you favor a particular era/style/genre? Surf guitar? Honky tonk? Swing? Excruciatingly rare proto-punk bootlegs? Dance pop? Weird soul music? Zydeco? Psychedelic Brazilian pop? Jazz vocals? Skronk?
Send me a mailing address (me at glumpish.com). Is DVD-R okay? My recorder can do formats I didn't know existed, so whatever's easiest.
DVD-R is fine. Funny, you don't look glumpish.
Oh, and if I can throw in anything else, let me know, since even at XP I'm sure there'll be room.
Anything else from your Liquid TV stash would be lovely.

Oh, yay!
If I remember right, there's a cut scene from "Home" where there's a montage of Connor seeing people at the mall being jerks to each other, and that's what sends him into a tailspin. Was that supposed to echo the "people suck" montage in "Reprise", that had a similar effect on Angel?
Remember, the correct answer is, "Yes." No pressure.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

This is long, but there were 78 posts in less than a day here, so it's not my fault:
AYNOHYEB is probably in my top ten of shows, top 5 of Ats. I've said it before and will say it again: OoG is the best episode of tv ever.
I disliked Moon. Wyoh annoyed the heck out of me. Aw, who am I kidding . Almost all of the characters annoyed the heck out of me. And line marriages=ewwww. That said, I am really curious to see what Tim does with it, because I have no idea how the book can be saved.
I just love radio theater. When I went to grad school, I didn't bring a tv with me. Grad school was in Syracuse, the armpit of New York (sorry to any Syracusians), but the place did have one outstanding feature: a radio station that played old radio theater. I listened to The Shadow, Fibber McGee and Molly, and other great shows whose names escape me right now. It was an great substitute for tv.
Re: music, at least the conversation is more my speed than all soaps all the time. Plus, the Eagles are great, but I may be biased because Glen Frey almost has my name. Silly things like that mean a lot to me, although I'm really not sure why.

Honestly?
Only if it's yes.
Oh fine: honestly.

"Don' be e-scared"
The truth is, gosh, I wish I wasn't just a terrible procrastinating hack who closes in on deadlines in 12 hour stretches and just grasps in desperation to make something track and fill the required page count and really had the focus to carefully plan out resonating narrative echoes. But, um, not so much.
I remember the Sunday I wrote 3/4ths of "Out Of Gas." I really am pathetic.
