This is the part that stuck in my craw, and probably hit because I was a Bronzer, and hey, I'm posting in Minearverse:

re: fans - Not because they're not the single most important thing any show has going for it. But because you can't let them poison your experience of the world you've created. Just as you should not poison theirs. What does it matter if the symbolism you created in your show meant something different to someone else? So long as they're not willfully or crazily misinterpreting it (ie: "They're in purgatory!") let it ride. Allow them their ownership, and preserve your sanity, by maintaining the Chinese Wall between you.

See, the part that pissed me off is the idea that I'm supposed to buy the LOST company line, "We have a plan." Hey, JJ Abrams has a history of stringing people along for years on some great mystery and you end up with a big red ball and zombies. Pardon me if I don't believe that there's a plan.

Oh and this

there's just no talking to these people.

Bite me.

What the internet IS for, at least when it comes to TV, is cranks.

Yup. All those people who criticize me on the Internet? They are cranks.

Yet another "look at the naked guy in the Gay Pride parade" posting. Or, if you prefer, "look at the guy in the Spock ears."

Ah well, at least all the remaining actors in the cast seem very nice.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, gang.

If there was a plan, we wouldn't have seen the same episode for the first couple of weeks of the new season. Nothing happened. Nothing. I'm enjoying the nothing, but it's clear in their plan, they're planless.

I missed taping the 2nd episode, so I'm kind of glad the 3rd started up where the 1st ended.

oooh! Happy bday to Matt and Cashmere!

I apparently missed the Lost kerfuffle. Probably because I stopped paying any attention after they reneged on their promise with the S1 finale. I went from loyal fan to meh, in the space of an hour. However, I'm curious about what happened with Fury. If it's possible do to quickly and easily, could someone summarize? No big deal, though.

Rolling Stone does a piece on LOST. They interview people on the show. People claim, "There is a plan. We know all." They also interview Fury. Fury "cheerfully" reveals that there is no plan.

Carlton Cuse goes on some radio show and, when asked about the Fury comment, says that Fury is no longer on the show and has an axe to grind.

Javi posts a thing in LJ about how Fury's comments violated the sanctity of the writers group and was the ultimate betrayal.

WW XXII breaks out in Javi's LJ.

Javi closes the LJ to comments because, hi, WW XXII is not a pretty sight. Especially not if you're getting comment notifications in your email inbox.

Javi takes the post down completely and has a conversation with Fury in which they work things out.

Canadian Dude picks up the banner on behalf of Fight Clubs...I mean, writers rooms...everywhere.

and see, I don't even know who Javi is.
