Suh-weet! I feel weird getting all fangirly after just two episodes (I think B&N delivers the set today), but I have large love so far.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I got all of the eps from Netflix a few days ago, and haven't had time to watch yet. I have a feeling they are going to be a large part of my weekend plans.

Dude, I only saw the couple that were aired, and I've been talking about them ever since.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have never met anyone who saw the show and didn't instantly love it forever. It makes me almost suspicious of the low-ratings claim.
Of course, everyone who saw the show is here in this thread, so maybe it's not so surprising it was cancelled. BUT STILL.

I saw all the original episodes as they aired. How many was that? 4?
I was definitely hooked.

I liked it a lot, though I didn't have the "OMG! I must organize my life around this show RIGHT NOW!" reaction I later had toward Buffy and a couple of subsequent shows.

I should really get my hands on the DVDs, but I kind of don't want to wreck the memory of my and my roommate sitting there with our mouths open.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Funny Matt, but you made me realize that Buffy wasn't the first show I had that reaction to. The first was probably Twin Peaks, the second was The X-Files. I loved Profit, but I do recall thinking after the first episode that the show was a gonner.

"Don' be e-scared"
Boy, got to this party late. I wanted to say publically that Bryan Fuller wrote the "Wonderfalls" pilot. All Bryan. That show was his voice, then, and I think he'd say this too, ours together after that. In terms of "Wax Lion" I helped him work out solutions to the network notes for the final cut, but it was oh-so-minor.
Bryan and I had never worked together before "Wonderfalls," but he knew who I was and kept insisting that I was the guy for the job. We basically became writing partners for those 12 episodes after the pilot. The fact that we clicked from the start was just good luck. Very good luck. I'll add that Todd Holland was no small creative force in the shaping of those scripts as well. It was really a three-way. So to speak.
So Matt, if you didn't like "Karma," you don't have to feel guilty. My name was on two scripts, Bryan's I think was on two or three after the pilot, but we both did a hell of a lot more writing on the show than those episodes. There wasn't a script that one of both of us didn't touch in large ways.

Also, Nilly, I'm not ignoring your e-mail of several days ago. I'm almost done reading it.
