Skin and Bones aired just there now (which I think is the last episode of The Inside). Pure television perfection. I haven't been that impressed since I watched Firefly for the first time. And Space Western and LittleWillow are best fandom in-jokes ever.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

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
I really loved Skin and Bones.

I'm not sure if she knows.

The thing about life is :You can rehearse it all you want,
But nobody else ever sticks to the script. So why bother?
Well then you should poke her, Allyson! And, argh we are at the last epi already? @%.$

I'm guessing it might not have been her kind of show.

It's not that I'm the only one, it's that I'm the honest one.
Also just seen Skin and Bones and it was one of, if not the, best episode of the show (bar "Declawed") and was glad it explained why Rebecca kept getting kidnapped...
Now why won't Fox release this on DVD already? (Sorry if that question is redundant but I want commentaries and other things that only DVD can do.)

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Fans got to do one of the commentaries for "Freaks and Geeks" and I have to say I was regretting I wasn't active on the F&G board so that I could have been selected. The fans did a better job of commentary in some ways than the principals. Too many commentary tracks really fall into the category of "actors and directors shooting the shit with each other". Though that's interesting in that you get insight into people's relationships with each other, it wears thin after 15 min. Most DVD commentaries are pretty lame, honestly. I wish more people did commentary like John Sayles. His commentaries are so damned interesting because they really go into the movie-making process.

Sometimes I prefer the less goal-oriented commentaries. While the producer/actor track on the SGA pilot was interesting in an academic sense, hearing about various choices made while the episode was being shot, it was a lot more entertaining to hear Tori Higginson and Rachael Luttrell joking with each other and giggling over McShep subtext.
