Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

5 am. Just watched Inside finale. "Welcome to LA".

I think it pretty much answers the initial criticism aimed at the show I saw in reviews and online. And pretty much ties up the (major) loose ends.

I loved this show. It's the first time I've really loved a procedual. I like proceduals, don't get me wrong, but I don't get obsessive about them. I did with this (5 am).

That said, being a child of the BBC -- role on Drive.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Katie *was* very funny on the Wonderfalls commentary. It's not that I don't enjoy principals kidding around. I just like there to be substance as well. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not.

"Don' be e-scared"

Last week Kristen told me it was safe to peep in on TWoP and The Inside thread. I get special satisfaction from the people there who found the show and dug it. So nice.

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

How do you feel about the show now that you have some distance? Do you have new favorite/least favorite eps that are different than what you loved/hated when you first wrapped?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I so VERY much need to catch up on The Inside. It was on when I had my cable turned off in a fit of rage. (I called and made them write down a list of shows I was mad were cancelled. Because I'm a prick.)

"Don' be e-scared"

They're all pretty easily downloadable on the net, Victor.

How do I feel about, Allyson? 13 was plenty for me. But I've since looked at them again and even the ones I hated I now think don't stink on ice. My favorites are still my favorites, but it's a pretty good list for a 13 run that I had to make by hitting the ground running --

Everything Nice Pre-Filer De-Clawed Aidan Little Girl Lost Gem Skin and Bone

Those are the ones that came out the way I wanted them to. My favorites are sill De-Clawed, Aidan, Little Girl Lost, Gem and Skin and Bone. I still have a special love in my heart for Aidan, Gem and Skin and Bone -- and I think that goes to my love of structure. The teasers and act breaks are killer.

Aidan, Declawed, and Skin and Bone are my faves. I don't really understand structure very well. I'm not sure why some things grab me by the throat and pull me in and other things flop like a dying fish on the floor.

I think Declawed was the most perfect in the bunch, the most gorgeous visually and in the storytelling.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

47% of the 13th ep. The anticipation is killing me!

What is even happening?

I so VERY much need to catch up on The Inside. It was on when I had my cable turned off in a fit of rage. (I called and made them write down a list of shows I was mad were cancelled. Because I'm a prick.)

Ha! Hahahahahaha.

Yeah, I need to get caught up, too. I downloaded #11 a couple of weeks ago and haven't watched it yet. I should at least download the last two so I have them saved. I'm kind of holding out on watching them because then I'd have to admit the show is over. Bummer.
